Is it normal to see things out the corner of your eye?

All my life i have seen shadows in my peripheral vision. Sometimes its Daylight other times it dark. They also come in different sizes, like small animal, child sized or an adult. They don't feel threatened. But I know ,they know I can see them. Anyone else experience this?

    Only happens when I go for a long time without sleeping. It's very easy to fall into the trap of believing whatever your brain presents to you. The feeling of being watched by a presence is also common when sleep deprived. I think it's an evolutionary throwback that no longer serves much of a purpose now that we are less under threat all the time.Try and find out a way to eliminate the shapes out the corner of your eyes, whether that involves getting more sleep or training yourself to not give in to the built in biases of a weary brain!

        • They're just shadow figures, they don't have eyes that we're aware of.

          They just look like a shadow but with limbs and an obvious head, all made of shadow though.

            Is it normal that I first heard of the Shadow People having glowing eyes from a tweaker?

    Yes, this often happens to me more than most because of my hair. It's not spirits, it's not ghosts, it's not really your imagination either. It's just your eyes fucking with you.

  • I've had that happen to me before, spirit's exist I believe and there for I believe shadow people are spirits that to be both seen and not at the same time.

  • Many people claim to see a creature that looks much like Anubis, quickly vanishing as they focus. To be honest I've seen something similar, but I assume it was a person that had their hair up, just rounding a corner out of view as I caught a glimpse.

    One guy, in texas (I think) claimed that he came out of his bathroom and it was just there, standing at the end of the hall. He grabbed a stool from the bathroom and rushed it, as he ran up the hallway it turned and strolled into another room. When he entered it had vanished, and he never saw it again.

      • I know right, it's Texas, I'm surprised he didn't have one in the shower with him.
