Ok this is going to sound crazy, but this is what happened to me. I’m going to preface this by saying that my mother believes in ghosts/spirits, but I have always been wary.
I was trying to sleep one night after doing my nightly routine. I laid down to sleep but all of a sudden I saw him. He was standing just in view, behind my wardrobe. He was fully black, and he just radiated energy. (This is a totally weird detail to me, but I think he was wearing a fedora??) I sat upright, in a staring match with the man. We stared at each other for what seemed like an hour but in reality was about 5 minutes. I didn’t know what would happen to me if I got up, but I slowly got out of bed and walked over to the door. He followed my movements, but stood still. I quickly threw open the door and shut it loudly, my heart racing. I had no idea what I had just seen, and I was kind of in denial that I had seen it. I decided that I would sleep on the couch that night. I’ve never seen him since and I hopefully won’t again.
