A doppelganger, translated from German, means “double-walker,” or an exact double of a person. Some people are certain that they have a doppelganger, like this man who says that every person close to him has had an experience of talking to him or seeing him when he’s not around.

It started when he was 13. One day, he was done with school early, and he hung out at a friend’s house instead of taking the bus home. A few hours later, he walked home, where something strange happened.

“When I got into the house, I heard my mom speaking to someone upstairs, which was unusual since we were normally the only two people there at any given time,” he explained.

“When I turned the corner to see what was going on, I saw her looking into the open door of my room, and I heard her having a conversation.”

“Obviously confused, I asked who was over, at which point she jumped, turned around, and got white in the face.”

His mom told him that she’d been on the phone. However, later on, she confessed that that was a lie.

Apparently, she thought he was already home from school and was trying to wake him up from a nap, even though he was at a friend’s house at the time.

Several years later, he was in his first serious relationship. They had been dating for a few months when he moved into his first apartment with some close friends.

One night, his girlfriend spent the night at his apartment, and he was suddenly woken up by her crying.

“When I asked her what was wrong, she told me that she had gotten up to use the bathroom,” he said.

“When she came out, she saw me walking down the hallway and towards the stairs. Assuming I had just woken up from her getting out of bed and went to get a glass of water, she didn’t think anything of it until she turned the corner and saw me laying in the same spot I was in, completely asleep.”

Shockingly, his roommates started to have the same experiences, most often at night. And it didn’t stop there.

“This has continued throughout every relationship and close friendship I’ve acquired, to the point where it’s become something that I have to disclose while also trying to sound sane,” he shared.

Strangely, he hasn’t ever personally seen his own doppelganger. The only way he’s ever learned that his doppelganger was around was when he’s had to comfort someone after they had an experience that shook them to the core.

Do you have a doppelganger? Have you ever seen your own doppelganger?
