A couple months ago, i had a memory pop up in my mind that was buried in my brain for years, and it has been bugging me. Of course it could just be a child's imagination but i just remember that it was so extremely real. So, let me start.
I was around 4-5 years old, it was a winter night around 9-10 PM. I usually was put to sleep around that time, so as always, my parents made the bed put me to sleep and left the lights on since i constantly had nightmares and thought that i saw weird people in the dark every night" probably just my imagination". An hour or so later i woke up because of a feeling that i was being watched, i thought it was my mom, she usually checked on me several times at night just in any case, so i didn't put too much thought into it. However the feeling was very unfamiliar so i opened my eyes and saw an old man standing above my bed and observing me. He had a top hat, a monocle, had a golden aura around him and was dressed in victorian-ish clothing. It wasn't an evil face, it wasn't happy, it looked like a person that would look at something interesting. You know, just standing there and observing. As soon as he saw that i opened my eyes and was scared, he stepped away from the bed and made a gesture with his hand like "don't worry boy, i am not gonna hurt you". I understood it right away and suddenly just felt comfort. He was silent but now he was smiling at me with a kind smile, like an elderly person would smile at you out on the street if you get eye contact with them. It didnt last long though, he dissappeared into the thin air as soon as my mom went into my room to check on me. I didn't tell her anything. I just went back to sleep and forgot about the incident until a couple of months ago.
anyone knows what that might have been?
