On some other forum, some user said the he he saw the "Hat man" which is a ghostly shadow figure. I did some research, and the Hat man is actually really popular, but rare to see. It's a random shadow that can be seen anytime, it is sometimes on the wall, or floating in mid air. It makes unearthly movements as if it isn't from this dimension.

From this research, I have dug deeper into other weird stuff. It seems that there is some dark spirit side that many people experience, but don't talk about it. One is called sleep paralysis. It's about people experiencing some kind of demons or shadow people contact right when they fall asleep or are about to fall asleep. They say when they fall asleep, some shadow stand near their bed and attack them by choking them. They said it mostly happens to them when they sleep on their back.

I am not a strong believer of this stuff, because to tell you the truth, I am a Christian but I have never ever seen any kind of paranormal activity stuff. But I still wouldn't say it doesn't exist. My cousin, a 24 year old girl, she's really smart and a happy person to be around. One day she told my mom and I that she were sleeping over at her friend's house one day, she said she was in the bed trying to sleep and her friend went to the bathroom to brush her teeth. My cousin said when she was on her bed, something came onto her and started choking her while pressing on her chest. Then she screamed out and her friend came back and the thing leave her alone. My cousin said til that day she never sleeps on her back again. In my opinion this sounds pretty similar to some sleep paralysis experiences. When my cousin told me about this I just thought it was some kind of ghosts or something, but ye it sounds like that sleep paralysis stuff.

If you're interested, read some of the comments here, I swear it's scary as hell.

I've heard of this story before on another forum. Can't say it's legit though, but it's definitely scary as hell.

You shouldn't bother looking in to it. I used to spend alot of time looking up myths and all I got out of that was alot of terror and horror in my younger years.

After reading this though, I am NEVER sleeping on my back again, lol.

Sleep paralysis... happened to me many times last year.

Sleep paralysis isnt something paranormal, but just what prevents you from walking around when you dream youre walking in REM stage. There are several physiological and psychological reasons that can keep this up for some moments after you already woke up.

Well, it certainly IS weird. Luckily, I never had an experience like this before but my mother has experienced it a few times, only without the shadow creatures. I have a fobia/fear of things pretty quickly, so I will probably not sleep for weeks if I ever experience it.

You are trying to make a propaganda and this topic may grow into truth in SA-MP.

Although other cultures have developed a variety of Djinn stories.

One thing I noticed about the Djinn, as you describe them, is that they appear to be highly adept shape-shifters. In that case, can we actually recognize an entity like this in our midst?

Since they apparently have a parallel universe, what motivates the Djinn to be among us? Why should they bother? How will they effect us?

Anything surprise or disturb you about the Djinn? (shadow people)

Form my experience, in dark, where light is present in a very little amount, (by which we can hardly see objects), the individual's brain cannot map a person's face, or a object's structure, so what sometimes it does sometimes that it tries to simulate another structure for example, a cow, a skeleton's head (if you're thinking about abnormality activities) to clearly understand what and how is it (but its done partially). About objects, it MAY map it in a different way but will simulate it as something else, for example, a number 2 the size of my hand on a wall, I try to see it, I will tell 'it looks like a duck hardly'.

This is a myth for me. What is this for you?

You know what? I just saw Haunted Collector on channel 122 (I'm on Dish), and a guy had sleep paralysis, and he says the same thing happens to him, he is sleeping on his back, and he had gotten choked.

Sleep Paralysis isn't some weird spirital thing it's a real thing when you're like half asleep half awake, kinda like a lucid dream you experience right before totally going to sleep (unable to move, hallucinations and whatnot), It's all caused by the brain.
