[Serious] People of Reddit who have encountered ghosts, or other supernatural beings, what was your experience like? What happened?

When I was about 13 of 14, I would regularly go on walks with my neighbor friend around a field where we had lived (which was just about in the middle of nowhere).

Nearing the end of one of our strolls, my friend had suddenly stopped and said, "do you see that?" She didn't look scared at that moment; she just looked confused. I looked in the direction she was looking in and saw a huge, like 15 foot tall, black pole. It was most definitely not a shadow, and it was very out of place. I could almost describe as not real-looking in the slightest.

After a couple of seconds of looking on in awe, it began to glide away from us, "warping" through a barbed fire fence. It was so frightening to us that we immediately ran as fast as we could back to our houses.

When I told my father about it, he was genuinely shocked. He believed my story and said that it was an inorganic being that we saw. He didn't go much into detail, but he said something nuts like it was misbehaving by being so close to humans and that it was trying to mooch energy off of teenagers. I promptly looked up inorganic beings on google, but no one seems to know what they are, just that they are some kind of ancient Indian legend.

There is a bit more to this story, but that would take forever to write.
