People of Lemmy, what is the scariest paranormal experience you've had you can't explain at all? (lemmy.ml)

What it says on the title. Mine was when I was 12 and I lived in a very haunted house which had some weird activity going on, like things moving out of place and pets freaking out. I was sitting in the computer, alone in the house, and suddenly I see a shadowy figure on the screen, just some meters away behind me, thinking was my mom I turned around and there was nothing, but the room had turned extremely cold suddenly. There was nothing behind me that could have been this shadow.

I saw a person materialize over my bed one night. It wasn't scary or anything, but I was fully awake, and saw a person standing in my room in front of me. She looked like a normal living person, dressed in modern clothing. She looked over towards me, and suddenly vanished into thin air.

I have questioned my sanity ever since.

I wish it were that simple! The thing is, I was awake, walking back to my room.

It... wasn't scary? I'd need new sheets.

I mean, it wasn't like I was looking at some horrific ghoul or something. She was pretty. I'm not sure if I witnessed a spirit, so much as possibly a non-gruesome teleporter malfunction.

She was standing in the air above your bed? Just trying to picture it properly.

I guess a better way to describe it was that she was at the foot of my bed. I was walking back into my room from the bathroom, and I see her in the moonlight. As she turned to look at me, she just faded into nothing.
