People have been seeing figures in the windows of the post office at Isabel, South Dakota.
The account that carries it is simple. Somebody went in at night to check their box, happened to look at the window, and in the reflection saw a person standing behind them, staring.
By the time they turned round, the rest of the account followed.
A reflection is a genuinely good way to see something, because you are not looking for it. The eye is doing something else entirely and the figure arrives in the periphery of an image rather than in the field of view.
It is also, of course, the classic condition for misreading your own reflection or a coat on a hook.
Isabel is a very small town on the northern plains, and the post office is the sort of building everyone uses and nobody thinks about.
It is a public building.
