The concept of Shadow People has been around for almost as long as people. In fact, shadow people are not a “thing” that is unique to western culture, it is something all cultures share. The scientific community, like all things paranormal, tends to give no credence to shadow people, because they cannot be produced in the laboratory. The Psychology Field tends to be more open to the concept of “Shadow People”. In fact, Psychology Today has written about the “Djinn”, a term describing the shadow people. Whereas the scientific field tends to ignore those who see shadow people or subscribe their imagery to mental health issues, those in the mental health field see shadow people as legitimate, provided those who see them as not having mental health issues, a legitimate concern. It would appear as if the scientific community is close minded and biased regarding the paranormal world.
While the scientific world is sure that shadow people do not exist and are quick to dismiss evidence like video shot by paranormal teams around the world and seen by millions of people on television, on shows like Ghost Adventures, when a shadow person can clearly be seen on camera, they offer forth no credible evidence to prove shadow people do not exist. However, the scientific community likes to attribute terms that imply those who see shadow figures are mentally ill, they consider people like the Ghost Adventures Crew schizophrenic or worse. Keep in mind, not being experts in the mental health field, these alleged scientists hedge their statements by using terms like “maybe so…”, in the hope of limiting their liability. It is going to take a collection of paranormal investigators, with the resources of their stardom, to put these people in check, forcing them to stop this liable, slander and nonsense.
Using rationalizations to justify the seeing of dark shadows is just one more way the scientific community dismisses this phenomenon (with no proof, only allegations), even though there are legitimate video’s of shadow people being shown on television, on shows such as Paranormal Lockdown and others and on the internet, being viewed by millions of people. If the scientists had their way, this would be a mass hypnosis or mental health crisis. This cannot be. The skeptics are willing to ignore all of the video evidence, the electronic evidence from Rem Pods and such, and just dismiss shadow people as “just shadows”. Having seen them, been held down by them, watched them on video on legitimate shows like Ghost Adventures, I am not willing to dismiss them, the energy evidence or the video evidence. I can dismiss their written word or I can dismiss what I’ve seen and felt…I’ll stick with what I’ve seen and felt.
Unlike the science community, which has gone out of its way to disparage the field of paranormal investigation and those who participate in it, no matter their education and background, I prefer to look at the evidence objectively. In this case, there is physical evidence, lots of it, on television shows, none of it called out as fake, by these alleged scientists who call the paranormal researchers gathering the evidence, mentally ill. I’ll take evidence for the win. After all, shadow figures have been around as long as man has started to die. Our souls, our energy goes somewhere, and it isn’t always Heaven or Hell. Paranormal research has proven that Djinn, dark shadows, shadow people exist. Video, still photo and witness statements demonstrate that these shadow people are real, the question remains: Are shadow people ghosts or demons? It will take time, research and more equipment to determine the origins of shadow people…let’s face it, they won’t be wandering into any science lab soon (Unless it is the abandoned Scientology Lab). Keep hunting, keep looking and keep developing techniques to find the solutions to the questions we have, for the scientific world does not take us seriously and never will, at least not until ghosts walk into their lab and ask to be examined.
