An unexplainable phenomenon has been taking place late at night for about a month now and I've tried to find the reason for this happening the way it does...but I honestly don't think it could be anything other than the paranormal
There's this shadow, maybe the size of a very small bird (think a decent sized hummingbird maybe) swiftly passes or flies by the right side of me just enough for me to catch glimpse and react. Every single time I'm fairly startled and caught off guard because it's traveling quickly about three feet and to the right of me. The first few times maybe first three to five times it's happened, I thought it was a bug. A fast moving dark moth maybe moving in the night when only I'm here at the desk working on some things. But I quickly realized that this 'thing' has the same exact movement patterns. It seems to come either from this green plant in the corner of the room hanging from a hook on the ceiling to the right of the table and laptop I use. And last night, it seemed to have come from the kitchen. It travels about idk maybe almost two feet from the ground, the height of the seats of the chairs or possibly a bit higher, every time. It goes, seemingly, under the table, every time. I've checked to see if I can find anything probably close to a dozen times now. It's probably happened maybe a dozen times or more by now
I've ruled out moonlight. I don't think it's anything living, because I would have found it by now or detected something; it never makes a sound when it passes by it's merely a shadow I can just barely catch a glimpse of as it quickly enters my peripheral and then by the time it reaches the chairs and table I can no longer follow it even if it does continue on towards the left side of the room. I suspect it has taken refuge under the table every single time because that's where I last can see it and it's just instinct as well, but once I check, absolutely nothing. Every time
I know my mind isn't playing tricks on me. This has happened way too many times. And the strange thing is that the pattern is consistent in its movement. The time in which this phenomenon takes place isn't consistent. The shadow passed by at like 11:45 PM Pacific Time just earlier. I'm typically up late many days of the week and I've seen this thing take its course a couple to a few times in one night. Every time it's fairly startling, mainly because I catch it in my peripheral and am thinking wtf is this thing every time. It's instinct to think it was a bug at first, then I figured, maybe a moth or bird next, but now it is clear that this is something I cannot explain
Thinking about recording the area tmrw with my phone to see if the camera will pick up anything that might provide some answers. Trippy as fuck. It's not enough to frighten much, but I'm extremely curious of what this small shadowy presence might be
I thought I've seen things in front of me before late at night, and just thought I was a bit tired or I was merely a tad paranoid but now I think it could be this same dark shadowy thing. For what its worth, thought I'd share here and get some opinions, thoughts, maybe someone has had similar experiences or knows someone who has? Or has read about anything like this before. It's bizarre, and kind of unsettling, but as far as I can tell nothing wrong or malevolent about any part of this, at least not yet. Yeah, that about sums it up
