I've seen a few things. I used to go walking around the loop my street made which was about a half a mile long. Half of it was unfinished and still a dirt road through the woods. I'd listen to my walkman and my cat liked to go with me if it was dark. One night we were approaching the wooded are where the asphalt stopped, I was zoned out listening to my old walkman and I noticed he'd stopped and was up on his toes as if threatened. I looked where he was looking and there was... something.
It looked like fog, but it was human shaped. No features, but you could see it had arms and legs, a head. It stood as if staring straight at us. After a few seconds it walked off into the woods. It moved like a human. It didn't dissipate like fog in the wind or steam from the street. That the cat had seen it and drew my attention to it was what made me think it wasn't just me.
I've since lived in a house with a cemetery attached. Things happened there all the time, mostly noises and motion sensor lights clicking on in sequence as if someone was walking past that side of the house, or the odd smell of old pipe tobacco or perfume (the place was old and untreated tobacco smells different from what we're used to now. Most of the Graves were interred 1850-1930ish). After a while you stop taking it badly, I figured if they were people once they're probably bored and restless. Nothing seemed hostile.
