Anyways, it is possible that this really did happen to you. You might have just imagined the Grey part while paralyzed though. Or maybe a Grey alien somehow actually made his way into your room even though you said you live in a populated neighborhood...

This reeks of hoax. Looks like a first posting and registered account dated today.. Wasn't there a similar post to this a few months back. Not buying any of this.

Brill, it's truly a shame that your useless post isn't a breach of the T&C because you certainly deserve to be disciplined for your desperate need to egotistically express your opinion about the authenticity of the original post.
The reality of this thread, hoax or not, is that members have responded cordially, politely and offered a lot of sound information regarding night terrors and sleep paralysis.
I myself am quite grateful for the post because reading about someone's experience where they're trying to turn on the light but can't because they're transparent is something that I have experienced for as long as I can remember.
These very real dreams I find quite disturbing but never realized it was connected to the night terror/hypnagogia syndrome.
Needless to say, I have found the information in this thread extremely helpful whether the original post is a hoax or not.
Here's a word of advice. Grow up!!!
If you think a post is a hoax, move on. Don't waste your, or our, time trolling/baiting others with negativity so that you can throw the T&C at them.
As I originally said, it's a shame your post isn't a violation of the terms and conditions because you brought nothing to this cordial and civilized thread other than the self satisfaction you gained from letting everyone know your "opinion" of it.
And you know what they say, "opinions are like #holes, everyone's got one". But just because you have one doesn't mean you need to jam it in my face.
