There's something going on that only you can see or hear. Maybe you have a Spirit Advisor; maybe there's some magic that only you're aware of. You (or the audience) may even start to question your sanity, but you've come to accept that nobody else notices this thing.
Then, someone else does. Naturally, you're incredibly surprised.
Compare You Can See Me? and You Can See That, Right? Similar to Imagine Spotting. See also Not-So-Imaginary Friend.

In Natsume's Book of Friends, three people say this to the main character, who has always been lonely because in his childhood, no one would believe him when he says he can see Youkai, though only one of them can actually see; the other two can feel their presence and see them under certain circumstances. There's a heartwrenching flashback to Natsume's childhood where he is befriended by an older girl who claims to be able to see them too. For the first time in his life, he's not alone. Turns out she's a youkai herself, and just took human form so she could get near him.

In Count Your Sheep, Ship the eponymous sheep is the imaginary friend of the other two main characters, Katie and her mother Laurie. However, the "Back in Time" segments establish that Laurie's to-be husband Marty was also able to not only "see" him, but talk with him too.
Eventually, Laurie's sister is finally able to see him while she's pregnant. Ship grumbles that his existence is "hormonal".
Laurie's parents can see and hear him just fine but are in denial about it.

Played with in A Beautiful Mind. After giving a lecture in class, John Nash is greeted in the hall by a man. Before he talks to him, Nash inquires of a passing student if she can see the man. Makes sense, given that he's been given to long-standing hallucinations.
Of course, if the passing student had been a hallucination, this tactic would not have worked. Even if the man was real.
Unless he'd already confirmed that student's existence with someone he knew to be real. He does say that he's always cautious meeting new people. On the other hand, he seems to be at least half joking.

In the second season of Grimm Nick says this to Hank to reassure him he's not going insane and that he too can see wesen. (Hank was about to shoot his goddaughter Carly, who from his perspective had just become a horrifying flesh-eating monster.)
The difference is, Hank, being a normal human, can only see Wesen when they're in "full woge" ("woge" pronounced in the German manner) mode. Nick, being a Grimm, can see their true self when they're only slightly "woged". It actually takes some effort for a Wesen to go "full woge", while "part woge" happens when they're only slightly agitated.

In an episode of The Simpsons, Homer meets a roofer named Ray Magini. However, Homer's friends and family claim never to have seen him even when Homer insists they've been together. This culminates in Homer receiving electroshock for a perceived psychiatric disorder. Then Ray shows up and everyone present is able to see him — the previous non-sightings are explained through a series of increasingly-convoluted circumstances.

In the original game, he interacted with several unnamed scientists, and in the Episodes for 2, he interacts with both Vances. The thing is, Gordon (and the player) had no idea he had appeared to Eli, and Eli's revelation that the G-Man had actually passed him instructions was unprecedented. Doctor Breen was also aware of the G-Man, and seemed to know what he was up to by putting Gordon in stasis. Actually, more or less all the major players in the Half-Life 'verse are at least passingly aware of the G-Man, but Breen and Eli are the only ones who mention him.

Near the end of Half-Life 2: Episode 2 Eli Vance confirms he knows of the mysterious G-Man's existence as well, making him the only character besides Gordon, Shephard, the Nihilanth, and the Vortigaunts who remember him.

During the Another Code games, Ashley is normally the only one who can see ghosts, but she encounters three people who can do the same as well. It becomes important to two plots as seeing D is what startles Bill into his Disney Villain Death and seeing his sister resolves part of Matt's subplot. As for Captain, it's more of a surprise to all parties.

In Star Trek: Discovery, Gray was Adira's boyfriend and the previous host of the Tal symbiote prior to his death. After Adira manages to properly connect to the symbiote, a hallucination of Gray continues to hang around Adira for some reason. In the episode "That Hope Is You, Part 2", Gray briefly becomes visible to Culbert and Saru while Adira is in a holographic simulation, much to his surprise.

Final Fantasy XIV:
During the Kojin quests of Stormblood, a doll comes to life to guide the Kojin samurai Kabuto and the Warrior of Light. Eventually, it's revealed that only the two of them could hear and see the doll, and everyone else just saw them talking to an inanimate object. Another character admits that while he couldn't see the doll move or speak, he believes Kabuto anyway because he had a similar experience in the past.
In Shadowbringers, Due to temporal shenanigans between dimensions, Ardbert had been wandering Norvrandt as a ghost for nearly a century before the Warrior of Light shows up, unable to interact with anyone or anything. The Warrior of Light being able to hear and see him snaps him out of his near-catatonic state, and he joins them on their journey. While none of your other NPC companions can see him, they believe Warrior of Light when they reveal this, since they'd have no reason to lie about it and much weirder stuff has happened to them that they have seen. Near the end, another person is just barely able to detect Ardbert's presence, and reveals that Ardbert and the Warrior of Light are able to interact because they're two pieces of the same soul.

In Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix Harry's confused when he starts seeing the thestrals when nobody else can. He's less than entirely reassured when Luna tells him that she can see them too, and that he's just as sane as she is.
Later in the book, it's revealed why only a few people can see them: they're only visible to those who have directly witnessed a death. Only three students present at the thestral feeding (Harry, Neville, and a Slytherin student) can see them, as can Hagrid. Umbridge apparently can't. Hermione can't either, but when Hagrid says what they are, she recognizes why she can't see them, and why Harry can.
Presumably after the Battle of Hogwarts pretty much all the senior years can see them. Goody.

The Fallout series has a recurring perk called Mysterious Stranger, which gives you a chance to be assisted in combat by a gunslinger in a trenchcoat who disappears as soon as the fighting stops. At most your character might be able to allude to having an unexpected ally in one or two dialogue options, but no one else in the game world acknowledged the Stranger's existence. But in Fallout 4, Synth detective Nick Valentine actually has a case file on this Mysterious Stranger and has been tracking his progress from Shady Sands and the NCR to the Capital Wasteland. If the Stranger appears while Valentine is your companion, he'll get rather agitated.

Lost:
In "What Kate Did", Kate thinks she's going crazy because she keeps seeing the horse that helped her escape the marshal. Then Sawyer sees it, too.
Also, another inmate at Hurley's mental hospital sees Charlie, and in season six, Sawyer can see the young boy who follows Fake Locke, though Richard can't.
Shannon sees an apparition of Walt (who had been kidnapped by the Others) a few times during season two, and Sayid doesn't believe her until he sees him as well.

In Alan Wake, Wake is surprised when a stranger rescues him from the Taken, and he realizes that the stranger can see and fight the Taken too. The Taken are actually more-or-less real, physical beings, but since they attack in remote areas, Wake had never fought them with anyone else before, and up until then still had to deal with the possibility he was simply going crazy.

In the Star Trek: The Original Series episode "The Tholian Web" Capt. Kirk has vanished into an alternative universe and is presumed dead. Lt. Uhura catches a glimpse of him, but because their proximity to the alternative universe is causing many crew members to go insane, she's presumed to be hallucinating. Later, Kirk manages to show up in Engineering and then on the bridge. Dr. McCoy promptly releases Uhura from sickbay saying "We all saw him. The Captain's still alive."

Then he meets Captain Thygh in the finale, the narrator makes his usual snarky comments, and Thygh abruptly asks, "Who the hell is that?" Neither of them take it very seriously, though.

In Due South, the main character constantly sees his father's ghost; eventually, so does a former comrade of his father's.

In Yu-Gi-Oh!, a lot of characters could see and talk to Duel Spirits. The first known character was Raphael, who could see the spirits of the Guardians (whether they actually ever talked back to him isn't known).
Quite a few characters could do this in Yu-Gi-Oh! GX, including Judai, Manjyome, Johan, and to a lesser extent, Kaiser, along with a few minor characters. (This seemed a common ability here.)
Ruka could do so in Yu-Gi-Oh! 5Ds, and seemed to act as a medium of sorts, as other humans could sometimes see and hear them when they were around her.

In JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, many Stand users are relieved the first time they meet another one, since Stands are invisible and intangible to anyone but other users.
Heck, this is the way Stands were introduced to the series, with main character Jotaro convinced that the Stand he seemingly gained from nowhere is really an evil spirit trying to possess him. This leads him to check himself into a jail until his grandfather Joseph is called in to explain things.

Ashes to Ashes: In the first episode of series 3, DI Alex Drake walks down an alley and sees the world seem to disappear into a giant starfield. She looks away, and when she looks back the world has returned. Given her circumstances, Alex is accustomed to seeing and hearing bizarre phenomenon that no one else will notice. Then Shaz mentions having seen stars. Then Ray sees them but Chris, who is with him, does not. Later, in the police station Ray and Shaz hear voices, are frightened and reflexively cling to one another in fear as Chris walks in and — not hearing those voices — draws the wrong conclusion. And then, finally, Chris sees the stars while walking with Ray and Shaz (who see them also to confirm that he is not crazy, invoking this trope instantly), and he now seems to have taken on the same extra-awareness as the others.

One issue of Spider-Man involves Mysterio using his special effects skills to pose as a psychiatrist and drive Spider-Man into a nervous breakdown through fake hallucinations. It nearly works, until J. Jonah Jameson and Flash Thompson unwittingly walk into the warehouse where this is happening, shouting in fright at the supposed hallucinations and causing Spider-Man to realize how little sense it makes for them to react to figments of his imagination. He subsequently punches one of the beings attacking him and sighs with relief when it crumples under his blows, revealing it to be a robot.

In Disco Elysium your character spots the Insulindian Phasmid, a cryptid believed by most to be mythical, but another nearby character claims not to see anything, making your character (whose mental state is already questionable) question his sanity. Your partner who may be someone who never believed that the species existed then tells you that he sees it, also.

Danny Phantom: In "The Phantom Menace", Youngblood torments Danny and makes it look like he's crazy because only kids can see him and he made sure to appear when Danny was the only kid around. Due to her adult-like personality, Jazz couldn't see him either, but when Danny got her to express her childish side, she finally saw Youngblood and realized that Danny was telling the truth.

Northern Exposure
There's an episode where Dr. Fleischman is being troubled by a persistent spirit of some kind (possibly themed around the holiday of Yom Kippur?) and Ed, the shaman-in-training, can see it too.
Also, when they decide to bring back Adam as a recurring character, the one-off joke of only Joel having seen him is ditched, to Joel's amazement (and annoyance when nobody really cares that he was right).

Doctor Who:
The Master is plagued by the sound of drums, something that the Doctor dismisses as just his insanity. The Master eventually has enough and performs a Mind Meld, which causes the Doctor to visibly freak out when he realizes that he can hear them too.
"The Name of the Doctor": Throughout, Clara has been able to see and hear the ghost of River Song, while no other character can. In the end, it turns out the Doctor has been able to see her all along, but refused to acknowledge her because it would've been too painful.

Ronin (1983) has a variant when a samurai and his lord are by some Buddha statues, having a conversation. Suddenly, the statues join in on the conversation and the Samurai yelps that the statues are talking. At that, the Lord notes he's glad his retainer heard them too since he didn't want to think he was going senile. As it turns out, the voices were coming from Mooks who want to spook their targets before they ambush them.

This happens a few times in Battlestar Galactica:
In the finale, it happens simultaneously to Baltar and Caprica-Six—they each realize that the other one is seeing their Spirit Advisor head-counterparts.
Earlier, Starbuck shocks the Final Five when she plays "All Along the Watchtower" on the piano, as they had been the only ones who could hear it.
And in the first season, Baltar enters CIC and is unsurprised to see Head Six there, until the Galactica crew start interacting with her and he realises to his shock that she's another Number Six Cylon, posing as human Shelly Godfrey.

Happens at the end of The Frighteners. Throughout the film, Frank has been the only one capable of seeing spirits, due to the traumatic near-death experience he had. At the end, he spies the ghost of Agent Dammers in the back of the sheriff's car. Lucy comments that he looks pissed, much to Frank's shock; the events of the film's climax have given her the ability to see ghosts as well.

In the Afro Samurai manga, a variation occurs— no one but Afro can see or hear Ninja Ninja, and in the anime series, he's simply imaginary or a hallucination. When someone comes along that evidently can see him, Ninja Ninja is the one that's surprised.
