I once had an on going hallucination.

First some background info.
When i was a little girl I had a weird dream an evil clown was laughing at me.
While i was having this dream, I was sitting up in bed laughing. I only know because my sister told me.

I also get laughing seizures and seizures from stress. Luckily they don't happen often.

When I was little a teacher took me and my sister to the circus and I've loved the circus ever since.
I like clowns, I've even dressed up as a clown using a costume I made.




I think this happened last...year. I'm horrible at keeping track of time.

I was walking back home from the beach and saw a frail man dressed as a dirty elf standing by a bus stop.
When I passed by him, I nodded at him and he took off his hat, pressed it on his chest, and nodded back at me.

I thought it was the sweetest thing.
I was afraid that if I looked back, he wouldn't be there...because I didn't know if he was real or not.

Months after that I was once again walking my usual route back home and saw the same man, except this time he looked healthier and he was dressed as a dirty clown.

I saw him from afar.He was walking in the opposite direction.
I did what I always do, I started walking towards a fence to look at some goats that are always there.
and the man dressed as a clown did the same thing.

I thought it was a little odd, but who doesn't like looking at animals (they're so cute)
after a few minutes, I started walking again. The man also kept walking.

I was curious to get a better look at him. When he got closer, I gave him a soft smile.
The strangest part was that when I looked at his eyes it felt like I was looking at myself
like we were the same person.
This time I did look back and he was still there, walking in the opposite direction.

weeks after that I had a technician over to fix my internet, it was the same man.
I wanted to ask him if I had seen him walking in a clown costume, but I felt weird asking such an odd question.


I like to think he was real. . . I like to believe the world is full of events like that...you just have to pay attention.

it probably wasn't real, though, I'm most likely just missing a few screws in my coco.

When I was a little kid I used to get up in the middle of the night and tell my parents there was a clown tickling my feet, I guess that's what I was imagining.
When we went to a carnival there was a clown running the carousel. The maintenance door of the carousel was open and you could see the big gear grinding and I wondered why my mom didn't throw me down in there.
Years later a technician knocked on the door at midnight when the transformer in the backyard was struck by lightning and it was the same clown.
