Man In Gray
Not sure of the date. I was about 4 years old and in my bed in my own room. It was if I remember right late spring.I was asleep in my bed. As I opened my eyes I saw a man standing in the corner of my room.
On each wall there was a window but he was either in the window on the left wall or in the corner between the two windows.
At first I was peaceful, just looking at him.
Then I realized that I did not know him. I yelled for my mother:
There is a man in my room.
She came into my room, and stopped to light her ever present cigarette, I remember the red glow on the point of the cigarette.
She said:
Where?
I said:
There in the corner.
She went and stood in the corner and asked me:
Where is he now?
I said:
He is gone.
She stepped out of the corner, and I said:
There he is.
She asked me if he had come in through the window.
I said no.
She asked me if two bodies could stand in the same place at once?
I said no.
She asked me, where he was now?
I said he is in the corner.
She stepped into the corner, and again I could not see him. Then feeling sure that there was no one there.
She said:
There is no one here. I am going back to bed.
And she left the room. I was frightened but have no further memory.
The man was wearing some kind of a uniform, it looked military, grayish. Had on sunglasses, or largeish eyes. He was as tall as my mother or a bit taller, around 5' 6". I never saw him again.
When my mother was there, I was completely awake and yet I could still see him.
She could not.
