It's the guy to blame when the Fed's come knocking on your door.

A body double or look-alike.

A vision of one's self out of the corner of your eye.

I heard her say, "Now that's one good looking doppelgänger."

In folklore it's a harbinger of back luck:

a) When you see your own doppelgänger, it's an omen of death.

b) When you see a relative's or friend's doppelgänger it could mean illness or bad luck for him/her.
German origin: 2 words a)Doppel- double b)Gänger- walk or walker
Zooey Deschanel's doppelgänger would be Katy Perry or vise versa.
True story:
In a dream or vision Abraham Lincoln looked in a mirror and saw two reflections of himself. One paler then the other.
This doppelgänger was an omen that he would not survive his second term in office.
