    When I was growing up one of my best friends told me a about a very creepy situation 

involving him, his younger brother, and a man in the window. When my friend and his little 

brother were younger they shared a bedroom. They're some years apart, but his younger 

brother was born with a multitude of different health issues, including multiple sclerosis, and 

he's confined to a wheelchair and cannot care for himself. So, to keep an eye on him overnight 

when his parents couldn't, they shared a bedroom.

One night my friend randomly woke up for no in particular reason and happened to glance over 

at his younger brother, but noticed something very startling; a strange silhouette of a man 

wearing a top hat looking in through the window behind his younger brother's crib. The first 

thing my friend did was jump up and turn the light on, then ran into his parents room to tell 

them what he saw. When his parents came back into their room to investigate, his younger 

brother was having a seizure in his crib.A few of his family members say it was his younger 

brother's guardian angel standing in the window that night; my friend believes it was death.
