Doppelgangers are able to repeat the image and character of a person in all details, replace him or even kill him. When these demons appear in your life, the supernatural becomes the norm. These creatures personify the fear of losing their own individuality, the fear of enemies who appear in the guise of friends and inflict a crushing blow.
The term "doppelganger" comes from two words of German origin "doppel", which means a double, and "ganger" - a hiker. This term describes a double of a person who has the same habits, the same clothes, or performs the same characteristic movements as its owner. Many facts have been recorded of the appearance of doppelgangers in a ghostly form and even in the flesh. However, the mystery of these creatures has not yet been solved.
Why does the doppelganger come
Sometimes a distinct image of a loved one can appear in front of his friends and relatives. In this case, the doppelganger is a harbinger of death or very serious danger.
Ancient myths and legends of many peoples contain information that a meeting with one's own double leads to death. Sometimes a person simply disappears, and a supernatural demon takes on his appearance. Such an otherworldly understudy poses a considerable danger to others.
A doppelganger is not always a complete duplicate of its owner. Sometimes he incarnates in the body of a child, but most often he takes the image of a person, about the same age as you.
Sometimes the double appears in the form of a figure with a face covered with a hood. If you dare to throw back the hood, you can see your own face before death.

Where is the stunt double
There are many theories and assumptions about where otherworldly beings come from. Scientists believe that about six billion people on the planet have similar physical traits.
They are not related and never even meet, but they may look the same. And the terrible demon-double may turn out to be just a random passer-by, more or less like you.
If we assume the possibility of the existence of parallel worlds, then a doppelganger can be called a demonic supernatural double who came from another dimension. It is believed that if two images of the same person meet, then something terrible can happen. One of the options for the development of events is the complete disappearance of the original person.
Time travel theorists believe that you can meet yourself in the past or in the future. However, such a meeting will not bring anything good, it can radically change your destiny. Such temporal paradoxes are well illustrated by Zemeckis' trilogy "Back to the Future".
How to recognize a doppelganger
The double seldom assumes the "dense" physical how to recognize the doppelganger form. Most often, it is a subtle ghost, whose presence can be felt rather than seen. People who have had a chance to come into contact with otherworldly forces describe them as creatures with a light pink skin tone, as if translucent.
In the dark, only the dark outline of the figure is discernible. In some cases, you can observe sparkling silhouettes of grayish or azure tones. During the day, the double can be seen in two forms: in the form of a barely discernible haze or shadow. It can often be discerned as a vague image on a wall or ceiling.
The double can appear at dusk, but it rarely comes if the light is on in the room. If in the dark you sense someone's presence, then perhaps a doppelganger is present somewhere nearby. It is not advisable to touch him, this will give the creature hellish pain. To get rid of glamor, simply turn on the light and it will disappear.
