Ganzfeld Hallucinations

I tried to search this section of the forums for any mention of this, but I couldn't find anything. If there is, sorry for bringing up an old topic.

Has anyone heard of the Ganzfeld effect, that I believe originated in the 1930's?

Well a friend of mine was talking about it so I went to look it up and I found something that I thought was worth sharing with those of you who like the Slender Man.

Quote:

��In the right side of the visual field, a manikin suddenly appeared. He was all in black, had a long narrow head, fairly broad shoulders, very long arms and a relatively small trunk�Ķ. He approached me, stretching out his hands, very long, very big, like a bowl, and he stayed so for a while, and then he went back to where he came from, slowly.��

This is taken from a description of hallucinations witnessed during the experiments of this effect. Sounds a wee bit like a certain someone, right?

I'm not saying that this is something profound or really related to slender man, I just found it strikingly interesting.
I thought it was interesting and wanted to share it with you all, the source is.
