A friend and I were driving in South Clinton, TN, it was around November, in 2001. We were the only ones on the road at that time, seeing it was after midnight on a week night.
We saw what we thought was a very tall man walking on the left side of the road. The way this man moved was very strange because it seemed like he was having trouble taking steps. It seemed like the closer we got to him, the taller he was getting. My friend said to me, "Do you see that?" I said that I did indeed see it, but I still wasn't alarmed because it could be just a really tall guy.
As we got closer, I noticed that he was wearing a big black hat, and his pants looked like they were too short and his coat was too short in the arms. We were almost side by side with him when he looked over at us and he didn't have a face at all. His skin was a very strange color as well, almost blue. I heard my friend gasp and I looked over at him, with my mouth wide open, because I couldn't believe what I was seeing.
We pulled over, exactly right across from it and parked just to look at it better. My friend said, "I'm going to bright light it on the count of 3." He counted to 3 and turned his brights on, and the thing jumped from where it was, all the way up the road about twenty feet. I don't mean jumped up in the air. I mean, it was right in front one second, and twenty feet further up the next. We both sat there and watched in disbelief! I was rubbing my eyes to make sure I wasn't seeing stuff.
We had to pull out and pass it again to get to our destination. As we pulled out and passed it, it turned towards the road and stopped. Before I could even say a word to my friend, it was squatting down with its arms over its head, almost in like a tornado drill stance, and it just got sucked backwards! While it was traveling backwards, its arms and legs were straight out in front of it waving around, almost like it was pitching a fit or something. Then, it was gone.
We were so scared that we didn't even go home right away, we just drove in silence.
I still think about that night. Every time I see the friend I was with, he always asks what I think it was. I honestly don't have a clue what it was...

Regardless of the figures being black or white, in most cases they are seen in the dark / low lighting, and in the quiet.
In most cases they seem to react badly to light or noise, or the prospect of touch. Almost a panic reaction. Then you have endings like this.
IF there is anything to these stories, and IF there are beings, alive or dead, or whatever, which we are interacting with: It create the impression that their interaction with us is POLICED. What by I don't know. There's a recurring theme of trouble for them if they get spotted or caught.
Humor me - if you ever get an encounter like this again, respond silently. Motion for quiet. Don't turn on lights etc.
