I'll have to find citations, but I remember reading something about how EM fields can cause "the willies." It's similar to how alien abductions and ghosts can be perceived when a person is subjected to electromagnetic radiation. So basically there could just be some natural or man-made EM that is causing people to get the willies. Couple that with our normal human apophenia, and suddenly you have evil walking around the place. It's also why some people swear there's something or someone in the room and it's just a ceiling fan.
Think about this way: have you ever heard someone whispering at night, but when you really listen it's just the refrigerator in the other room?
No supernatural, paranormal, or magical occurrences needed. Just the human mind.
