I used to have an imaginary friend named Bob which happened to be a shadow of a tree at night from a streetlight. Well every night I would go to my window and talk to "Bob" so when my parents would come in and ask me what I was doing I would say "I am talking to Bob" They just said Ok just go to bed soon. I sure was freaked out when Bob went missing when the tree was cut down.
