What happens after death is one of the world's greatest unsolved mysteries. There is no explanation to what happens to a person at the point of death either. However, netizens seem to have found something shocking and very eerie in this matter. Many netizens claimed how their loved ones saw a ''man in the corner'' while on their deathbed. Many have elaborated what they saw or felt on Reddit.

A Reddit user started the discussion on asking other users to share their experiences. The user wrote, "Redditors who have worked around death/burial, what's your best ghost story?" This question spread like wildfire across the platform and the thread has garnered almost 4,500 comments in a month.

'Man in the corner'

It was in this thread that a user claimed to have see a "man in the corner." The user wrote, "I worked within hospice and long-term care. The spookiest phenomenon was the man in the corner. It happens all the time for people actively dying. They see a shadowy man in the corner of their room." A number of people commented, claiming to have had their own experience with the "man in the corner." 

Another user wrote, "This is true as someone who also worked in that industry. They either always see a man in the corner, or their spouses/families who have passed. It's sad, really. They call out for them in their deathbed."

'Phenomenon is very common"

It does not end there. Another user wrote, "The person in the corner of the room phenomenon is very common. There's a second common phenomenon among the dying that's pretty unexplainable to me. When a dementia patient is close to dying many times they will come back for a short time and be very rational. It gives them the opportunity to say goodbye or handle some unfinished business. A lot of times this will coincide with the person in the corner. I've observed this happening many times in my years of work as a CNA in long term care and hospice."

Another user said they experienced the same thing during their father's death. The user wrote, "My father died at home. My mother brothers and I were around the bed as he passed. I was holding his wrist feeling his pulse as it gradually stopped. Something caught my eye at the window at that moment. A small light emerged on the windowsill sat there about five seconds and then passed through the window. Scared the hell out of me. I don'tdon't know what it will be, but I'm damn certain that there is some form of life after death."
