i cant remember if i have read something on these or not so im putting up this post...

three times within the last 2 weeks i have a dreams where a figure(masculine) has been in the same room as I have. I am not aware of this figure until i turn around and he grabs me. it is a very terrifying thing even in a dream situation. i never see a face or even a full body. i somehow know he is a man, and he is pitch black. like a shadow...but tangible. the first two times i woke up as soon a he grabbed my arm. then the 3rd time (last night) he grabbed my arm and i felt the squeeze. i kept saying "i hope this is a dream" and when i woke up my whole body was vibrating. each of the three times this has happened it has been somewhere in my house (bathroom office bedroom).


kinda long to read i know im sorry

but is there a name for that type of figure? does he/she represent anything? please tell me all you can on this subject.

thank you!
