What are Doppelgangers?
I've recently heard of someone seeing my doppelganger, as told by my mother, of when I was a small child.
I know that a doppelganger is a replica of yourself, but what is it exactly? I've also heard of people seeing their own.
Any answer will be appreciated.
The story is that I was asleep in my bed, and my mom went to the car to get something, when she turned around, "I" was standing at the door outside, and she brought "me" in, and I was lying on my bed, and then "I" was no longer there.

A doppelganger is said to be a duplicate of a person.
They are usually foreshadowing something bad such as death.
There are many instances in history where this double of oneself has preceded deaths.
Most of the stories of Doppelgangers being evil is derived from fictional stories. Although I am sure some will dispute this.

It's supposedly sort of a ghost of yourself even though you're still alive. Not sure of its origins. But the term has also evolved to mean someone who looks so exactly like you to the point of feeling that they could be your clone, but with no blood relation to you at all.
I believe there are a couple of old scary movies involving doppelgangers, but I don't remember what the titles are.
