Sleep Paralysis

Sleep Paralysis

by Ascary M.

When do you feel the most vulnerable, while you sleep at night and just image a dark figure interring your room and slowly getting on top of you and trying to scare or kill you but that catch is it’s not human or was?

Sleep paralysis is a phenomenon in which people, either when falling asleep or wakening, temporarily experience an inability to move. It is a transition state between wakefulness and rest characterized by complete muscle atonia (muscle weakness). It can occur at sleep onset or upon awakening, and it is often associated with terrifying visions, such as an intruder in the room, to which one is unable to react due to paralysis. It is believed a result of disrupted REM sleep, which is normally characterized by complete muscle atonia that prevents individuals from acting out their dreams. Sleep paralysis has been linked to disorders such as narcolepsy, migraines, anxiety disorders, and obstructive sleep apnea; however, it can also occur in isolation. ^]When linked to another disorder, sleep paralysis commonly occurs in association with the neurological sleep disorder narcolepsy…….Wikipedia

So sleep paralysis has many theories some even have out of body experiences. An out-of-body experience, is an experience that typically involves a sensation of floating outside one's body and, in some cases, perceiving one's physical body from a place outside one's body).  symptoms commonly experienced during episodes of sleep paralysis. Some scientists have proposed this condition as an explanation for reports of alien abductions and ghostly encounters. Some suggest  alien abductions are related to sleep paralysis rather than to temporal lobe. There are five main types of intruders that attack the victim  with a deep sense of terror while being paralyzed. People have reported seeing different types of intruders, the first one is the shadow figure, which comes in any forms to humanoid to small animals and bugs too. The Alien abduction is said to be in the field of sleep paralysis. Then there is the  Incubus or Succubus, male and female of a demon type and also the Old Hag, and the Grim reaper type, it is seen at hospitals. A victim said she has suffered through the hands of the Old Hag for the past thirty fives of her life and she claims this is why she looks older beyond her years. She remembers feeling drain and out of energy for the majority of her life as this thing will drain her of her life-force: LIFE FORCE ENERGY is a spiritual energy that also called a soul and it runs into every living thing which also included plant life and bugs too. The theory of Why these evil creatures of the in betweens and dark realms come out and intrude in our life it is because we give out a life force energy they feed on, we are their food. A human spirit energy is real but some have figure out how to steal more energy vampires also known for psychic vampire is a person or being who feeds off the Life Force of living creatures. Energy is food to them and we have  a lot of it, the average human body could power up a light bulb with a whole day of talking, cool huh.

Old Hags, let us consider the case of the old Hag, The victim wakes up unable to move . As they lie there helplessly they hear footsteps and see a horrifying presses on their chest or near their bed and being held down and choke. You believe you’re going to die and unable to shake off his paralysis and finally your able to move and the eerie attack ends. In some culture European I believe they have call it the Old Hag or haggering. This evil being appears in nightmares and seems to attack you and she resembles and old woman witch like creature. What makes her scary is when the victim awakes and see’s the old hag on top or next to them sitting on your chest or chocking you. Then as you start to move she dissolves or disappears, just then your awake and believe you just had the worst nightmare. One such case was the Dubik box where the owner and along with eight other people or more suffered at the same time an Old hag attack while dreaming along with the Dubik box in one roof on a camping trip. Check out the Dubik box story if you haven’t.

 

Alien intruders does not need no introduction we all heard of abductees and their stories but the one’s that make me think are the Faye/fairies stories where these beings resemble alien like powers but dress or look different , I’m not getting into to that subject, just too long to write about but maybe some other time. The grim Reaper type attacks you when you’re really ill or dying but it’s mostly seen in hospitals, is it real the grim I don’t know.

Night Terrors: is a parasomnia disorder, causing feelings of terror or dread and can also cause sleep walking. Sleep terrors begin between ages 3 and 12 years and then usually dissipate during adolescence. In adults, they most commonly occur between the ages of 20 to 30. Though the frequency and severity vary between individuals, the episodes can occur in intervals of days or weeks, but can also occur over consecutive nights or multiple times in one night. My question is people have been experience the same nightmare and skeptics would say it’s because it’s a popular theme but what about Freddy Kruger? I’ve never had an nightmare of that dream demon with the claws even after I’ve seen he’s films a million times. I’ve never heard of the old Hag until it happen to my friend of mine and that changed he’s world.  My friend was laying on he’s side watching TV. when suddenly he saw a force lay on top of him not letting him move at all, he can barely move he’s neck and eyes to see who it was. He saw a transparent shadow figure. He panic but after what seemed a long time he told me it ended when all the commercials on TV. did and the shadow lifted off him he sat up to see it back away into another room. Since then he’s was obsesses about ghost and the shadow people.

Hag attacks also affect children by making them sick and ill. A victim was attack by the old Hag for more than 35 years and made her tired and suffered with bad health and lacking sleep along and they suffer metal illness. They seem to be psychic vampires that feed off of our energies and they also love to make people sad, angry and depress.  

I felt this unseen force lay on top of me back in my north side house when I was a teenager sitting on my chest. I woken up with something sitting on my leg like an invisible person then I moved my leg from out of the force. The bed lifted from the invisible weight, I got freaked then went back into bed in a fetal position. Time pass and when I was sleeping I couldn’t breathe and then awoke feeling some strong force pressing down on me crushing my chest. When my adrenaline kicked in I was able to feel the force jump off me and back away as I sat up I saw a dark fog like thing leave.  In my twenties also awaken from a nightmare and in mid afternoon I was sleeping because I worked the night shift at Safeway so sleeping during the sun was out was normal. I saw a transparent shadow human figure getting off  when I awoke from the night terror I had  I sat up. In my dream I was fighting to breath and felt a force pushing me down where I couldn’t move my limbs and I panic but when I awoke it was still occurring. This is where doctors and Therapist always argue with victims about, they say it’s all in your head steaming from a dream, but what is a dream.

Dreams are successions of images, ideas, emotions, and sensations that occur involuntarily in the mind during certain stages of sleep^. The content and purpose of dreams are not definitively understood, though they have been a topic of scientific speculation, as well as a subject of philosophical and religious interest, throughout recorded history. The scientific study of dreams is called oneirology. Dreams are NOT understood so the idea of whets happing to a person while awaken and being attack by a night creature is absorb to science, then why is their soo many people who swore it’s real.

There are  a lot of stories of people who suffer by sleep paralysis, night terrors I bet if you where to record them down into a book you’ll probably have over million statements on the Shadow monsters, Old Hag, and the Succubus/incubus. That’s enough to believe people with just the numbers of witness in this modern day of science and no magic world we live in. On my opinion it’s real as you feel it and having the same stories being told with the same monsters attacking night after night. I’ve never was told by any adult in my family but yet I seen the same things people talk about as I gotten older I gathered more books on the paranormal.

 

How to defend yourself from these things, after reading and researching it’s all about your will, your belief and pushing them back using your words and energy but you must stand your ground and cursing at it won’t do it because it feeds on fear and anger from us. Praying in what you belief and using will to push it off should hurt or scare them. Not being afraid of it and it sounds harder then saying but it works. Just remember where stronger then it and this is why it attacks us when were asleep. Thank you Ascary Morera
