At some point within the past million years, there was a hominid subspecies that had a number of common traits:
-Eyeshine, also possibly red or black eyes 
-Palid, corpselike skin
-Predated exclusively or near exclusively on humans
-Closely related enough to be able to breed coercively with humans
-Sociopathy as an adaptational trait/the instinctive 'this person wants to kill' effect
-Sharper teeth, possibly elongated canines
-Human looking yet something 'off', perhaps with disturbing twitchy movement patterns or elongated limbs/torso.

And so on.
Tl;Dr Blindsight is real. These creatures also survive into the current day and are responsible for a fairly high percent of odd disappearances in national parks.

You're generally correct, but the things responsible for those M411 disappearances would stick out like a sore thumb in public, those guys are not the droids you are looking for.
