If you live in Kent, you'll know that this weekend was a particularly warm one (19-20th March). This information is important for my story by the way.
Anyway, connecting to the side of my house is a garage where my dad keeps all his work tools, two exercise machines, a tumble dryer and an American style fridge. Along the left side are all these things and the rest are full with cupboards. There's no way someone can stand with their back to the wall because there's simply too much stuff in the way.
Opposite these things is the door leading into my house and to the right of these things is a door leading to my decking area.
As I said, the weekend was pleasant and so I was sitting outside with my mum on our swing seat which is on the decking. I felt really warm outside and so I wanted to get a drink. I went through the door leading into the garage and up to the fridge to get some orange juice out. There was definitely no one in the garage with me. As I closed the fridge and turned towards the door leading to my house, I saw the figure of what seemed to be the shadow of a tall person. I couldn't make out and legs, but the head and shoulders and body were clear. I turned around quickly but no one was there!
I thought it was my own shadow, but then realized that that would be impossible as the garage has tinted windows. Has anyone else had a similar experience? Any comments would be greatly appreciated.

The fact that the windows were tinted would not necessarily rule out a natural shadow. Were you able to locate your shadow after this occurrence to make sure it was not yours? You were obviously able to see where you were walking without turning on a light, so whether there was light penetrating the tinted glass or from one of the doorways, there was some form of light to see by, correct?
I guess if it were me, I would wait until approximately that time of day again, and see if I could recreate it; also, I would try to remember whether it is a time of day when someone could have walked past the garage on the outside, like a neighbor, mail carrier, paperboy, etc.
If it indeed was a paranormal occurrence, I personally do not believe that every shadow person is negative or evil... They just don't have the energy to manifest fully, or were trying to conceal themselves and did not want you to notice them.
