The Skeleton Watched Me

I’ve had hundreds of experiences throughout my life that would fall under the category of paranormal. It’s just a part of my life like the weather, I just live with it. But I just had an encounter recently so different that I had to talk about it.

It was around 11:30 PM and it had snowed most of the day. I was standing outside smoking a cigarette and watching a friend of mine shoveling out around the cars in our parking lot when I noticed a dark figure standing there watching me.

It was a skeleton dressed in an older style, long-tailed tuxedo with top hat, purple vest, white flower in the right breast pocket, a cigarette with the long stem like you see in old black and white movies. He had no eyes, but a mild blue glow.

The strangest part of this encounter was that I wasn’t afraid at all. In fact, it felt almost welcoming. Maybe I was a hallucination or??

It was unexpected and out of nowhere. I have not watched any movies or TV shows with such a figure, not in recent memory.

I would be interested in hearing about any similar encounters. Thank you and God bless.
