"The world we live in exists only in our denial of the real world."
In my research, I came across an urban legend / myth of the Shadow People. This is a phenomenon that seems to haunt many people.
These creatures, or whoever they are, look like shadows or silhouettes of people and are usually visible to the naked eye and sometimes appear on walls in your home. When you try to look at them head-on, they will fly by and disappear into a wall or another room.
One of the most misunderstood entities to see, they seem to appear mostly at night and tend to hide in dark corners of hallways.
They look like a legend called the "Slanderman", an unusually tall figure in a dark suit that stalks people and is destined to steal children according to ancient myths.
But unlike Slender, who is a legend born on Internet forums, shadow people are more believable only in the sense that there are many people of all ages who claim to have come into contact with this anomaly.

The shadow takes the form of humans and animals
Entity descriptions range from a dark, dense form that takes the form of a human, to dark hooded figures, rough or smoky balls, and even animal figures. The main factor is that they are a mass of dark matter that stands out as a solid object in the darkness itself. It is said that light from a flashlight will not be able to penetrate their shape.
This is why they hide behind doors and furniture, and why they hide from sight when spotted.
Other times they like to watch us sleep and are caught standing over people's beds or even looking from the ceiling.
It is not clear what it is. They are sometimes explained as spirits tied to the ground who reject the light, fearing what awaits them on the other side.
Others describe them as interdimensional explorers who have found a way to study us. Some have been seen with red or yellow eyes.
Most of them are benevolent creatures who, like insects, fear us more than we fear them.
But there are also shadow people who carry more hostility and give off a feeling of fear of whoever sees them, and many people said they were paralyzed when they were awake and conscious.
This phenomenon has been reported with so many descriptions and stories from all over the world, but unfortunately without proof.
Each has its own story about where these creatures come from or who they might be. Spirits, inter-spatial or alien entities. There are many options, there are even more questions. And there are no answers.
