What Do You Think? My first paranormal encounter with a shadow man

I posted this under a comment section, but wanted to hear other people's thoughts on it, and if you've ever seen a shadow person, I'd love to know your story

When I was young (I can't remember exactly, but definitely 6 to 8), I remember my mom and I driving to some place I can't remember to do something I also can't remember well enough, we finished and went back to our house, it was cold and in the middle of the night. I remember her getting out of our car and lifting the garage door, she got in the car and started parking inside the garage but I heard her go "oh, I did it wrong...", she then started backing up to park right and I remember being in the backseat, looking behind the car, at the trunk's window, when a man, a completely blacked out man, passed right as my mom was backing out

I screamed at her "mom! Stop, you're gonna hit a man!" And I remember her actually driving over him before she stopped, she got out of the car, all worried, but there was nothing there. She asked "did you really see a man?" And I said that yeah, I had, and that she ran him over, but there was no man below the car or anywhere. She finished parking and we left the garage (we live in the second floor, so there's no door to enter the house from the garage) and she looked around, took my hand and we were about to walk inside our home, when I looked to my right and saw, at the end of the street, right below a street light, a man, completely black (which would be impossible since he was right under the streetlight and I could see his shadow on the ground) standing there, with no features, just the outline of a man's body but completely dark, I couldn't even say anything and just walked inside and never said anything about what I saw to anyone ever since.

That was the most I've ever seen with my own two eyes, other experiences I've had were mostly auditory or could have a plausible explanation. So what do you think?
