Just now I got this achievement. At the starting room where u r collecting 3 pages and the journal book stay there with the light at hand. Preferably stand at the middle of the room. Whenever u will hear the spawn sound of the shadow man focus on it until it disappears. U need not run at all through it. Standing at the same place move around only. If you die repeat the same until u get the achievement. Yes the counter is broken. Hope this will help.

Just got the achievement and here's what I learned:
● The counter is broken. Mine would stay at 0/50 until I unlocked the achievement.
● I died 4-5 times while killing shadowed people so you don't have to do it in one life.
● Not sure if you need to kill them or only see them but seems like it's the former as I did that and got the achievement.
● One shadowed person spawns every 40-ish seconds. So it takes around 30 mins to get the cheevo. At least in my case.
● I played the game for few hours and never saw a single shadowed person until today. They probably only spawn in the bedroom where you start.

Anyways, wanted to thank you for this info and though I'd add some as well if anyone is having trouble getting the cheevo.

The paranormally only appears in the start of the game in bedroom after darkness falls.

Just stand at corner with torch off, when the noise of it starts, move a few step to another corner,
when it appears and head towards you, switch torch on,
repeat 50 times.

All the steam counters doesnt work except the kill 4 paranormallies.

This is overal very broken game, i found many things randomly not working or not showing correctly and the achievments are really strange indeed, yes it is a cheap game, but my god make it at least working...
