Shadow Goblins
I just thought I would post a story that happened to me when I was in middle school
Maybe someone can shed some light on what it may have been
I do have an overactive imagination, but I always try and find a reasonable explanation for odd and creepy experiences first
This one I'm just stumped on
(Sorry I don't have a huge amount of detail because it was about 10 years ago). Around 10:00pm I was lying in bed in my room because it was a school night
Sometimes I'd just lay there and stare at the ceiling or look at things in my room for a while before drifting off to sleep
It's hard to explain, but to me in the dark, things kind of look pixelated like on a computer screen
Out of the dark I started to see little shadows
They were each about a foot tall maybe
No real features just outlines of shadows
I know it sounds silly but they were in the shape of little cartoonish goblins
(Can't remember exactly why, but they reminded me of something in the Disney cartoon Fantasia) They started out of nowhere and moved up from the foot of my bed to my face and then disappeared behind me
I laid there for a few minutes in awe and half thinking my eyes were playing tricks on me
After a few minutes it started to scare me
I ran out into the hall, turned on the light, and yelled for my mom
The shadows disappeared when I hit the light
I told her what had happened and she told me to quit being silly and go back to bed. Sometime later I saw them again
I did the same thing, ran into the hall and they disappeared in the light
I again told my mother and got the same reply
I remember it happened at least one more time but the last time it was different
When I ran into the hall and turned on the light they were still there
I still saw them as shadows and they still came towards me and disappeared behind me
I yelled for my mother and she still told me I was being silly and that my eyes were playing tricks on me, even though I told her that I was still seeing them right that minute in the light
She sent me back to bed still seeing them
I eventually drifted off to sleep because I had no other choice
I never saw them again after that. I'd just like to know if anyone has heard of anything like this
Was it my eyes or my imagination, or something else? I've had other "experiences," but as I've always been interested in paranormal things, I've always kind of had a good knack of scaring myself over nothing
Although I should also note that at the time I was into witchcraft with some friends
(Nothing negative though) I don't know if it has anything at all to do with this or not
Although other things that happened at that time, I credit them to being young and in a group of girls and scaring the crap out of each other
The "Shadow goblins" I just don't understand
