When I was very young my parents used to rent a summer camp at Highland Lake up in Bridgton, Maine, U.S.A. It was a typical small Maine town with a main street. There was a single movie theater there. After the second showing, you would have to walk the entire length of Main Street, heading toward the outskirts of town up toward High Street as if you were going on to Fryeburg. You would then hang a right turn and keep on walk about a quarter of a mile to where the paved town street went to a small dirt road which would then wind for about a mile down to the lake front where that little camp was. Well, I was fine walking Main Street (this would be like around 11 P.M. - nobody around, total silence, after dark) but the minute I would start the final trek down that old dirt road by myself in pitch black, you could see the stars overhead through the tall trees just bearly, and I could start to feel my heart racing. The last quarter of a mile was almost unbearable, and I would start singing out loud, but then realise that would give me away, so I would just start walking faster until I would break into a run which would scare me even more, and finally, the dirt path (by now) would suddenly open onto a kind of pine needle covered terrace where there was a single porch light left on for me. By then I would be panting and half nuts from fear. I would wait outside the camp until my breathing slowed down to normal so my parents wouldn't know how scared (terrified) I had been. I would always say I enjoyed the double horror show at the theater on Main Street, but the real horror show was walking down that old dirt road in total darkness...

I've only had that feeling a couple times. Once I was being followed by a stalker, that was self-explanatory. The time before that I was in Scotland and I had met the man I later married and I was staying in the house he rented. It was an old bakery and it was on the corner of two streets. He had gone to work and I was there alone. There were curtains over the windows and the walls were 18 inches thick, but every time I walked past the old oven which was bricked over, I felt like someone was watching me. It was creepy. I just made a point of not going past the old oven and I was OK, it was daytime after all. Then later that night we came back from a nightclub and I felt that way in the whole house. (I don't drink, if that's what you're thinking.) Luckily, he had bought a house in another town and soon moved into that house, so I didn't have to put up with that feeling any more.
If I had had that feeling due to feeling I had something to hide, it would have stayed with me when he moved to the other house. I truly believe there was something strange about that old bakery.

All the time I feel like sometimes I should leave the room so I do. Other times I just feel someone just watching me and then the hair on my arms stand up I know I am no longer alone.

Only people who are ashamed or have something to hide feel this - it is called a conscience...
Oh and this:
am a man who walks alone
And when I'm walking a dark road
At night or strolling through the park
When the light begins to change
I sometimes feel a little strange
A little anxious when it's dark
Fear of the dark, fear of the dark
I have a constant fear that someones always near
Fear of the dark, fear of the dark
I have a phobia that someone's allways there
Have you run your fingers down the wall
And have you felt your neck skin crawl
When you're searching for the light?
Sometimes when you're scared to take a look
At the corner of the room
You've sensed that something's watching you
Have you ever been alone at night
Thought you heard footsteps behind
And turned around and no one's there?
And as you quicken up your pace
You find it hard to look again
Because you're sure there's someone there
Watching horror films the night before
Debating wiches and folklore
The unkown troubles on your mind
Maybe your mind is playing tricks
You sense and suddenly eyes fix
On dancing shadows from behind
Fear of the dark, fear of the dark
I have a constant fear that someones always near
Fear of the dark, fear of the dark
I have a phobia that someone's allways there
When I'm walking a dark road
I am a man who walkes alone

Yes - when I was a kid. I always felt someone follow me up the stairs at night. They would only go halfway though. I never told anyone. Years later in a random conversation with my brother he told me the same thing used to happen to him as a kid. I would shut the lights behind me and run upstairs terrified. he would just leave all of the lights on because he was terrified too. I would also feel it in one corner of the back yard. To this day that corner gives me the creeps at night.

Yes, I have. When I feel like I am being watched, I call one of my friends and that usuallly takes my mind off of it. If I would actually see someone watching me and they folllow me to my home, I would probably call the police. I really hope this helps you.

Yes, ask Michael Jackson about this.

genuine tale: I had a neighbor who has in view that moved that could attempt to peek in my homestead windows all of the time from interior her homestead. She ought to have had a pair of binoculars. She become youthful and alluring so I enable her. It did not quite subject me apart from the lengths that she might pass to peek at me so i might purposely depart my curtains back and blinds cracked somewhat. All she had to do become to knock on my front door. So, Rachel, in case you spot this, i comprehend what you have been doing...

Yes all the time but it's only a good feeling if it's the opposite
sex that's doing the looking.
