Only the Shadow Knows

The title to this post comes from an old time, 1930’s, radio show. Though the show aired quite some time before my time, it’s a well known line.

I utilized the title because it is the first thought that came to my mind after reading this.

The young woman went to doctors to have them probe her brain, to root out where her seizures came from. But unexpectedly, their investigations and the procedure they performed led her to experience the creepy illusion of a person standing behind her, where nobody was actually present.

The patient described the illusory person as young and of indeterminate sex, a “shadow” who did not speak or move. “He is behind me, almost at my body, but I do not feel it,” she reported.

I just thought it was interesting.

If you’re interested, the article which the above quote is taken from is titled Brain stimulation creates a ‘shadow person’
