Ghost Stories & Paranormal Encounters

A late friend contacted me through sleep paralysis.

A few years ago one of my best friend’s killed himself. During the period up to his death I was going to see him as he was at a place I am sure none us would want to be at. He would often talk about death, he didn’t believe in life after death. We often argued as I do believe there’s something after this life.

We made a pact that if one of us were to die we would get in contact with whoever was still alive. My friend sadly decided it was him to go first. I lost a really good friend, someone I will miss until its my time to go, but not for a long time I hope!

Anyway it was two weeks after his funeral, I was asleep and in my dream my friend was in it. I can not really remember much about the dream, anyway I woke up. I was wide awake and I felt myself go into sleep paralysis. I don’t know if this is a common thing but it wasn’t the first time I have had paralysis but I fell into paralysis once with the light on! Anyway the norm happened; I couldn’t move, scared, etc.

With my sleep paralysis sometimes I get something in my ear like a bird flapping its wings and I can hear echoing moans and screams then like a radio being tuned. I could hear a voice coming through, this had never happened and believe me I was bricking it!

I could hear clear as day my friend asking me if I could hear him, which of course I could, but as you well know you can not talk in paralysis. So I am trying to say yes I could and nothing is coming from my mouth. It was a bit comical to tell you the truth and I am sure I heard him sigh thinking I couldn’t hear him.

When I came out of it I was full of emotion and couldn’t believe what had just happened. I know people will say it’s because you had a dream with him in it and were thinking of him, but believe me it wasn’t. It was clear as if he was talking to me before he died. I have had paralysis since but nothing like what happened to me that night forgive me if its a bit all over the place I have never done this before.
