For those of you who do not know, sleep paralysis is is a phenomenon in which a person, either when falling asleep or awakening, temporarily experiences an inability to move. It is a transitional state between wakefulness and sleep (copied that straight from google). Basically I like to say that its when your brain is awake but your body isn't. I would just like to share my experiences with it because it occurs often for me. With sleep paralysis occasionally comes hallucinations. So here goes:
My first sleep paralysis hallucination I can remember is when I woke up, and found I could not move (this isn't the hallucination part yet). Now people, if you ever get sleep paralysis, I recommend to NOT open your eyes, because you might see something you don't want to see. So I opened my eyes, and standing six feet tall on the side of my bed watching me was a dark hooded grim-reaper like figure. It had bloody roses all over and there was nothing in the black hood.
Another one I had wasn't as demonic or scary, but it was pretty shocking. I was laying in my bed in the morning when my dad came into the room and sat on the bed, telling me that he had to go to work early and he'll see me in a few hours. I couldn't speak. I did my usual routine and got myself out of my paralysis, and I got out of bed. I walked into the hallway and I saw in my dad's room that he was asleep in his bed. I remember asking, "I thought you were going to work early?" and he said "No... what are you talking about I just woke up." I was completely mind blown. I had FELT his weight press down on the bed. I heard him speaking. I felt his presence. But it turned out that the WHOLE thing was a hallucination. It seemed so real that I wasn't sure whether or not it was.
And the creepiest hallucination I have had with sleep paralysis was I think in the middle of the night. I opened my eyes and a woman was just standing there by my door (yeah, creepy enough already do I even need to finish this story). As she started to move (and Im not saying walk because she wasn't moving her legs) towards me, she started screaming. But while she was getting closer, and as she was screaming, her face kept morphing into different women's faces. The strange thing was, I wasn't scared. I don't even know. But what made it more bearable for me was that when she finally got close to me, her face morphed into an anime girl face and I ended up laughing when I woke up.
But yeah, those are my sleep paralysis stories. If any of you have ever had sleep paralysis and would like to share your experiences, it would be interesting If not any super creepy weird dreams would be cool too.
