Doppelgangers from real world folklore were ghosts of a sort, or rather they were visions or omens of death.

The tale goes that, if you meet a person who looks exactly like you, that means you are going to die before three days.

Some versions elaborate further, and claim that double was your guardian angel saying its goodbyes, your soul that is starting to split from your body, or even death itself...
