First i have to say so sorry to see anyone with any horror of any kind...Well i have to say what you do not want to hear...I do believe this could be a dream..Sleep paralysis,you dont sit up what so ever..At least that im aware of...Being a past abductee in sleep paralysis i was forced to stay lying down...Unable to move..At times i could feel and here sound around me,but still could not respond...

Now a evil spirit can make you do and feel all of these things as well,however i would not call this sleep paralysis..AGAIN from my own real experiences with aliens and evil spirits,..SLEEP PARALYSIS YOU DONT MOVE!!!

sounds like you have had a horror dream or even a evil spirit toying with you..The evil is out pretty strong right now and is only going to get stronger...Get faith in God and if this starts happening to you often,start a journal..


I have a recording of things that have happened to me and i also have voices of spirits on tapes,pictures and a 5 note books of writings (journal)..not sleep paralysis..maybe a horror dream..

Since you were able to recall the dream and the events in it so vividly i dont believe its paralysis what so ever ..Not a night terror i think..ok..Usually night terrors you are in heavy movement and cant remember what you dream t..Thats form studies with my daughters night terrors when she was young...


SO to be honest with ya with all the experience i have had i would get some sage(alot) and start to burn it..(evil spirit) get Jesus and rebuke..Stay away from scary movies and be calm in stressful events and relax...

Hi eeks,

Thanks for all of the info.

Just to clarify... When I first woke up, I had awakened suddenly - with a start, I had sat up in bed as if I had been startled by a noise, and was shaking my wife's shoulder to see if she had heard something too.

I don't remember specifically hearing anything myself, just that I was bolt upright as if I had been startled awake.
It felt like I was wide awake at this point, it certainly didn't feel like a dream, but I'm willing to consider that it could have been.

It was then, after I sat up, that something strange happened...

In (what felt like) an instant, I found myself lying down on my side, my right arm up behind my head, still (mentally) trying to shake my wife's shoulder... It was then that I noticed the bright light around the door, and felt paralysed - unable to move.
It is this part which I am speculating may have been sleep paralysis.
In the process of waking up (perhaps after a very realistic "bad" dream?), completely unable to move and sensing things were not right.
It certainly could fit into the classic description of an episode of sleep paralysis, as I understand it.

I'm still trying to piece it all together, and it was certainly hard to get to sleep last night, wondering if anything was going to happen again, but thankfully I had a good and restful sleep with no incidents to report.

I do appreciate all of the input, so thanks again for taking the time to comment.

regards,

GTD

Yes sounds like something was lurking around your house probably not a good spirit or something some beings like to produce fear and i have heard accounts that some feed of this fear they do no harm but to you but they want this emotion or energy of fear from you it empowers them to gain so kind of control over you, i have had many experiences like this they come they create fear then leave for a while i think many of us has, understanding the unseen and what they want is the hard part but if you learn not to fear what you cannot see which is harder then it sounds maybe they will back off a bit, but they always seem to find something that will cause fear in you so all i can really say is be strong and face what you fear maybe they will give up after time, after some time with OBEs your mind will not crash so hard in your body what i mean is you will eventually learn to wake more calm even with fear it take time.


Hi Gabriel,
Thanks for your input!

I've had a couple of days to think about this now, and I think that the fear aspect was in relation to my inability to do anything about whatever this was.
I was frozen, paralysed, and that's what was scary.
I couldn't have protected my family if there was any danger.
You feel so helpless in that situation, but I don't think that I was actually scared of the presence/visitor.

As I mentioned in an earlier post, I have had one previous experience of a similar nature, except I perceived that presence as being VERY evil. This time was quite different. The experience was scary, but I didn't "feel" an evil presence, just that something strange was going on, completely outwith my control.

Anyway, thanks again for taking the trouble to post!

Great indeed you found the "real feeling". By this I mean the real cause of your fear as it being related to your inability to move and not an "evil" presence. Evil is very subjective in any true shape or form and when you really think about it is a "perception of evilness" which creates fear mentally, but often we do not realize this (myself included )


Just food for thought,

Hi GTD,
Several years ago I experienced something very similar to your vacation house experience. I was quite exhausted and was having an afternoon nap. when--very much like you--I felt as though something woke me up, and then I realized I could not move. At the same instant, I "felt" and heard something enter my bedroom. I was lying face down into the pillow and was trying to turn my head to see this someone or something, but of course could not move. I heard a shuffle like sound and i sensed that it was standing at the foot of the bed. All i could think was, what the hell? who is in my room and how did they get here? I felt entirely awake and my senses fully alert. I don't think I felt panicked, mostly just confused. I recall that I asked it who it was, and I can no longer recall if I was able to say this out loud or if I only thought it, but in any event, it answered me in a male voice. It said: "what do YOU want?" I was baffled and remember thinking that I wanted nothing but for it to leave. Then I heard it shuffle past me and it seemed to leave through the bedroom door, even though the door remained closed. That is when the paralysis left. I call it "it" because I don't think it was a ghost or a person, I dont belive in alien abductions or that type of thing, but it was certainly some type of presense, and I don't think it's intentions were good. It felt evil for sure, I was under alot of stress at that time in my life and I have wondered if it was because some sort of "darker forces" (for lack of a better word) my have sensed my vulnerability? Even though I did not see it, I feel as though it were just some type of dark mass. I went on with life and for the most part forgot about it until recently; I had been reading a book called "The third man factor" that explores the subject or disaster survival stories and the common theme of survivors often sensing that they were aided by an unseen presense throughout their ordeals. This made me think of incident, (although more malevolent in my perception) that is when I decided to look it up. To my shock there are countless stories on the internet, so similar to mine that it sent chills down my spine! Anyway, on youtube of all places I found a researcher in the field of sleep disturbances named David Hufford, he has written a book on the subject known as "The old hag" syndrome. So I am wonder during either of your incidences, were you under a great deal of stress? That seems to be a common thread throughout alot of these disturbances......

Thanks for your post, very interesting topic!!!

Hi Tera,

Thanks for your very interesting post.
Your experience does indeed sound like my holiday flat one.
I described the event in more detail on the shadowlands website, but didn't get very much comment / response at the time.

HERES A LINK TO THAT WEBPAGE

My experiences are 2nd from the bottom on that page (Ghostly experiences by GSBUF), please feel free to have a read, for a fuller description of what happened then.

In answer to the "stress" question, I'm not aware of being under any great deal of stress, either now or when the 1st incident happened. There's the usual "day to day" stress of course! but nothing which I would describe as excessive.
I'm not at all convinced that my recent experience was in any way related to the one in the holiday flat, (other than perhaps I'm "sensitive" to things of this nature?).
The 1st incident, like yours, felt like a very evil presence, pacing the hallway then slowly moving through my bedroom. The recent one felt very different, like being awakened suddenly by something being "wrong", then "losing time"? and finding myself in the very confusing position of not understanding what's just happened to me, seeing a very bright light around my doorway, and being unable to move until it faded. I was scared, but didn't sense anything "evil" this time. Very strange (and all has been quiet since then thankfully).

Anyway, thank you so very much for taking the time to contribute to the thread!
and I hope you enjoy reading the more detailed account of the holiday flat incident?

regards,
GTD

Oh - Forgot to add that I'll definitely be checking out David Hufford, Thank you!
