Hat Man Stories: Volume 1
It's listener submission time and we have a handful of encounters with the legendary and spooky Hat man.
As a reminder, the Hat Man is a tall, looming shadow figure that lurks around and is often seen with a wide brim hat and a cloak. He is often associated with sleep paralysis and many associated feelings of dread with him.
We have 4 listener submitted encounters with this infamous shadow figure.
Story 1 - Peeps: During two consecutive nights of sleep paralysis, a Peeps encounters a towering shadow figure in a hat who moves like liquid through the crack of their bedroom door. What starts as an unsettling observation turns into a terrifying close encounter, leading to an unexpected revelation from their brother.
Story 2 - Sophia: Growing up in a significantly haunted house, a young girl spends nearly a decade being stalked by a dark figure in a fedora and cloak, forcing her to abandon sleeping in her own bedroom. The entity's presence becomes so oppressive that it takes a friend's shocking confirmation and one final, brave confrontation to change everything.
Story 3 - Torie: A two-year-old who mysteriously waved at empty corners grows into a child who sees a mysterious figure in a fedora throughout multiple homes, leading to increasingly disturbing encounters. After years of accepting the hat-wearing entity's presence, a sleepover with a skeptical friend results in an incident that forces everyone to acknowledge something unexplainable is happening.
Story 4 - Morgan: After getting a new loft bed, a teen begins experiencing nightly visits from a tall figure in a top hat who mysteriously unlocks their bedroom door. The story takes an unsettling turn when a friend who's never been upstairs in their house has a supernatural experience that reveals there might be more to these visitations than simple nighttime encounters.
