can anyone explain sleep paralysis

I have seen and experienced them, too. Off and on. What's the point of them? Or their "life purpose", has anyone figured that one out? They are intrusive and annoying, like a parasite. I am adding the dancing banana, because I am blowing them off. They seem to come during high times of stress. I think I need more dancing bananas in my life. That is a very happy banana.

yes i have. in daylight at my job and at home.

Hi richhr.
I have only seen two in my life. I will tell you about the more recent one. Last year. Do you know of the 'Hatman'? One member of the 'Shadow family'. Of course he is a black shadow. Tall hat, long nose or it kinda looked like a curled bird beek. Had a black cloak with a rope or belt with a clock hanging on it. Some say he has red beady eyes. I didn't see those. Couldn't sleep one nite. Finally 4:14 am went bed [don't remember laying my head down...very strange. Next thing I know I'm laying out in my front yard looking up and the roof of my house. There he was, laughing at me. Really scared me. the next thing I know I'm back in my bed and couldn't move a mussel. And there he was sitting in my easy chair, starring at me. That really scared me. I'm agnostic. I said to him 'Jesus, Jesus...I could barely get those words out. Just then, it put both hands on the arm rests of the chair, got up and disappeared. Could barely sleep the next night.

Let me know what ya think.

i think you should lay off the meds for a while...

yeah, I've seen em more than once. nothing to be afraid of.

if I'm not mistaken, it's where your body is almost asleep and your subconscious mind is in overdrive preventing you from falling into a deep sleep. it's something like that. Memory isn't as good as it once was, there's plenty of info on the net about it. I experienced it twice myself. it's also called old hat syndrome.

Hi everyone. I've had a lot of haunting experiences. It started around the age of 18, I'd feel helpless, held down by an invisible force, afraid that I would lose my life. I would be paralysed and not be able to call anybody for help. This was followed by feelings of something watching me when by myself, hearing creepy sounds, footsteps, scratching sounds in the ceiling and walls. I do not know how many times I sent my father to investigate, but he never found anything. I decided to shut up about so people would not think I'm crazy. Throughout the years these haunting so we're taking a toll on me as I was becoming more depressed and losing weight, all until I had enough. Gained my strength back and confidence and decided not to show any fear, and started to fight back. The more I resisted and fought back, the weaker this, what ever it was became. One day I realised it was a dark sinister shadow like creature that would appear through the walls of the house. The only way to get rid of them is not to show any fear, as they prey on weak and vulnerable sensitive people. They belong to demonic forces who feed on our souls. I remember being paralysed in bed but totally awake, consumed by fear, in my mind while this was happening, and I was feeling like it is choking me, I said to myself on the count of three backwards I have to jump out of bed and shake this off me. With great will I succeeded. Today I try to help others with these entities. I still see them on occasion, or in my dreams. If you feel that this is happening, either in your mind, or say it out loud : in the name of God, and through faith in his blood, I command you to leave. I am not fanatical about religion, however once this helped me too, I do believe in God, and oh boy the devil is real. Thanks , I hope I helped anyone in need. P.S. Try burn some white sage incense, or frankincense and sandlewood. Cheers.

Hi Andrew, please read my post, I had the same experiences. Cheers R9G6

In Jamaica we call the dippy i once saw one grew taller than my house and just stepped over it i couldn't move i was in shock

I've had a couple of experiences with these dark entities, but my first was my worst experience.

I was six (I think), and was playing by myself while my mom was outside mowing the lawn. The shadow person had sat in front of me and started playing with my toys with me. Being kind. Building trust. I was scared of it at first, but it had done this over a period of time. Every time my parents weren't in the house, it would play with me. Soon enough I called it a friend.
Once day it told me it wanted to show me where they lived and could get there by magic. I asked how. It had told me to still a metal for into the light socket, and I almost did what it said, but my mom had come in and caught me doing it. After I told my mom what I was trying to do, the spirit never showed up to me again, but I felt it watching me most of my life. I'm sure she had saved my life that day.

I've been reading the posts in here and I notice that almost all of them people see these shadows as evil.
As far back as I can remember, I've seen shadows flick by, sometimes black, sometimes white. They have never caused me to feel afraid. I've often felt someone with me when I've been alone.
I was about 7 or 8 the first time I felt physical contact with one. I was standing under an open window and suddenly felt an icy cold hand on my back. I turned around thinking it was my sister or brother playing a joke on me and I had stepped back just one step when I turned. No one was there but suddenly a large potted cactus that had been sitting on the window sill fell to the ground at my feet.If it had not been for that icy cold hand cause me to take that step, it would have fallen right on my head.
Over the years there have been different unexplained things that have saved me from getting seriously hurt or maybe even killed.
One Christmas day the phone rang...not an unusual thing for Christmas day...and it was like a voice inside my head telling me that it was my Grandmother died. I was crying before I even answered the phone. She had died of a heart attack.
There have been so many different things I could tell you about but I'll tell one more. The first Christmas I spend all alone with no family. Neither of my kids were able to be home with me that Christmas and I was sitting and feeling sorry for myself and crying.Suddenly I felt a warm hand pick mine up and hold it. I stopped crying and just stared and my hand was slowly lowered back down leaving me feeling comforted.
These things don't just happen at Christmas or holidays. The have happened at random times. To me, its like a friend who is always close by and looks after me. He is a good friend.

There are different types of entities, and the ones I experienced were not good. However, I have also experienced good ones, you can call them angels and spiritual guides. On one occasion, I could smell fresh violets and jasmine, when I was feeling down. I felt that something literally hugged me and poured a lot of love into me, which instantly uplifted my spirit. On another occasion I was resting in bed to realise I had company. Beside my bed I saw a very old man sitting next to me. He had long white hair, a very peaceful look n his eyes, full of reassurance, gently smiling. Reminded me of a spiritual person from Tibet. He nodded his head at me and told me that everything was going to be ok. Then he disappeared. That year I had a lot of changes happening in my life. I risked above the ashes and all was well.

I will say to you that you are extremely blessed to have that spirit/angel watching over you. I say it may be the same angel through your entire life and you are lucky to have such a protective and gentle one. Anyone would wish to be in your shoes to have such a guide to protect you.

I have been protected a lot through out my life, all I know is, as I was told several times, that I am an indigo. Also told that there is a strong angel looking out for me. I believe in this because of my many experiences, as well as life itself. Life is not an easy journey, but we get to learn a lot.

Love these topics : I was just going to share an encounter but I couldnt pick , there are just to many lol.
I am a regular experience of what I once labeled night terrors but have been working with in and out of these experiences over 20+ years, finding family and others having similar encounters. One thing has led to another and so on.. These days I call it multi dimensional accessing and dream hacking and have found beings from one level stepping through and appearing as Shadow beings.. I have broken the paralysis's states, the external screaming, the sweats and tremors, still get the internal screaming and the double slips and still bring back reminders (markings of all sorts) of how close our dimensions are connected and how we bring back information which gets either shocked out of us in a created fear state (which is their job part in stopping us adn designed distractions) or we store it until we can recognize what it is in the first place. I deal with the paranormal if you want to call it on a daily basis.. from astral projection, dimensional beings, ufology, Orbs, ghosts, telepathic connections, working on remote viewing, And work in De-programming.
I used to see a lot of scitters or shadow like creatures that would be seen out of the corner of my eye, then it became full visual, then into the parasitical dimension that feed of emotional energy's of each person including some animals and from there onto light reflections between dimensions giving off a distorted image appearing as something different than what it could bee seen as on another level. I see Orbs with the naked eye and there are several sorts, to regular low fly overs by the orange/red plasma spheres and other weird ****. Be safe in your journeys because there are many phases to our consciousness becoming aware and remembering our abilities and we are NEVER alone. Always happy to chat

I see evidence of shadow people all the time when the visitor count to a forum thread is greater than the number of posts
