Sleep Paralysis Hallucinations

Posted on August 6, 2009

Hello, I am Daniela from California and I am about to tell you about some very disturbing dreams that I have often. Lately once in a while though. I have heard of sleep paralysis and have read about it and how they say that it is actually “demons” trying to take your soul, or about the “old hag” and all sorts of names in which this could be. Well, whatever it is I have had my share of hallucinations during this half awake, half asleep state, and let me tell you, they are very creepy and disturbing.

One of the scariest ones I have had was when I saw a fat old headless woman at the foot of my bed, and she was moaning in a very creepy way holding her head in her hand. She was wearing a white apron stained with blood.

Another scary one I had was as I was lying down on my back, paralyzed as you know this happens during sleep paralysis, I opened my eyes as far as I could and saw a corpse lying on top of me! It was green and grey in color and had a green light glowing out of it. It was a woman and she had long hair like mine and a dress on.

I have had many of these dreams, a lot, and I can go on and on about what I have seen. Like one day I was taking a nap in my room, and I went into that dream state again, this time I saw a tarantula crawling on my ceiling! I wanted to scream and run but as you know, you can’t move. So I just watched it walk across my ceiling then fall on my chest! It was crawling up to my ear then my mouth it was horrible! I tried to “snap out of it” and forget about it.

Another time I saw a “butcher man” lying on his stomach next to me on my bed, he was just there, smiling at me, with his uniform all stained with blood. Every time I opened my eyes he was there. Then he vanished.

The most disturbing ones I have had, and are stuck in my mind still are the ones with the “demons” in them. Those frighten me and I want to know why I have them a lot. As I was sleeping one night, I once again went into that state and heard a growling sound coming from the foot of my bed, I didn’t want to open my eyes, I was freaking out. As I heard it get closer, I shut my eyes tighter. For some reason I wasn’t scared of my other dreams as much, but this one, this presence I was feeling and just the noises it was making made me know that it was something evil, something that I didn’t want to see. But there it was getting closer until “it” was right on my face. I can feel its hot breath on my mouth, and then it was kind of laughing and growling, then its “drool” or saliva whatever it was dripped on my mouth and cheek! It laughed again and I wanted to scream. Then snap, I snapped out of it shaking and breathing really heavily.

I want to let the people out there that have this sleep paralysis know that it is all the same, as you go into that state, it feels like something heavy is sitting on your chest suffocating you, I have had that many times and it is not pleasant at all. Especially as it was happening I saw a “little demon baby” pounding on my chest really hard and really fast. Super disturbing may I add!

Another one of the dreams I have had that sticks with me most of the time is of “the man in black.” I call him this because he is wearing a suit and cape and hat, and I cannot see his face or make out any features at all, only the outline of him and I can see that he has a suit, cape, and top hat on. As he is coming closer to me, I start panicking, thinking that he was going to hurt me. I was trying to snap out of the dream, but he was getting closer to my bed, went around it, and leaned right into my ear and whispered, “help me” then bam, I woke up.

There are too many of these dreams that I’ve had, but it will take up too much time to tell them all, I still have them, and most of them are very creepy, confusing, and disturbing. Many of the disturbing ones include “demons” and creepy looking girls with hospital gowns standing next to my bed or at the foot of my bed. But anyways, I want to know how I can stop these dreams and what they mean. Any suggestions? Thanks!

    Woa! Do you always experience this or since you moved to a new address? sugest you research the house history, os you can make some sense of whats going on there, and decide from there on what to do with your place.

  2. Delano says:

    my mom goes through the same thing

  3. trolldoll1681 says:

    i can relate somewhat, i used to be on certain anti-depressants that would give me very disturbing dreams. i mean they were very violent and bloody and even painful and when i would try to run away, i couldn’t and i would have the hardest time trying to wake up, like my body was being held down. well needless to say i took my self off of them, i couldn’t get the doctor to believe all the side effects that they were giving me. but that is just what happened to me in my dreams. i hope your not on any heavy meds. otherwise i honestly can’t tell you what to do. try staying at a motel or some place different sometime and see if your dreams change, i sincerely hope so for the sake of your sanity GOOD LUCK DANIELA!!! i hope to hear back about how your doing honey!!!

    Do you have these dreams even when you sleep over other people’s homes?

    How about ur car ?

  5. DarStarr says:

    That is absolutely horrifying! I can’t even imagine that! My heart breaks for anyone who goes through this!
    Have you thought of maybe having a sleep study done?
    Talk to your parents, they are your best ally right now. You can not keep suffering through this. It sounds terrifying. I wish I had an answer for you. Maybe even keep a bilble beside your bed. Good luck! I wish you peace.

  6. SomeoneNotImportant says:

    My ex suffered from that.

  7. Noelle says:

    I can somehow relate to that…I once had a creepy expierience when I was about 7 or 8. It’s something that will always haunt me.

  8. quicksilver says:

    Just wait for explanation about that. I have something good for you for that..

  9. Ghost girl says:

    woah…I have no idea what you could do about it. maybe talk to your parents…? or friends…?

  10. Eric says:

    Hey I have had the same problem.. I know what that feels like .. It happen so much I that I even tried to stay in my dream longer just to see what it means… But the further I get in to my dream it feels more real and I force myself to wake up.. I have not had it in awhile but the next time it happens I am going to in my dream no matter what .. I’m going to find out what It means.. I will keep u posted

  11. lostarot21 says:

    I have the same problem… usualy when lying on my stomach, I will then wake up, at least i think I am, then a guy will come busting through the door with a knife trying to kill me.. same as a figure above you that wouldnt let you move..sometimes you would get yourself shot and see yourseltf bleeding and you cant wake up still feeling it. I even wondered why some dreams I get shot and I would just wake up. this is different. you feel fear and pain and all you can do is force yourself to move and wake up. finally I snap out,again, thinking im awake, I would get out of bed just to find out that im being attacked again. i think this wake-up-and-dream-again state will repeat for 3 times until I actually wake-up.

  12. lostarot21 says:

    I checked wiki and study shows this happens twice in one lifetime. I even lost count on how many I had.. LOL… Maybe I’m special… I would have these attacks usually weekends when at home, atleast two attacks per sleep max 4 and at least once and max two per week.. I dont experince this in my boarding house. just at home… Recently experienced it once outside of home. I think this is just a sleeping problem.. but its really scary, you wake up and feel normal again.. panics attack three to four, morning.. One thing I noticed was, when was dreaming, i checked the clock and its 3am.. I woke up and and it was the right time.. weird..

    My brother and I went through the same thing you are going through but only when we both lived with our parents…and I had it only a couple times at my dorm but most were when I would come back to visit my parents…I HATED that feeling but I never saw anything just felt the presence of something and the last time THANK GOD AND KNOCK ON WOOD was a little over two years ago when I visited my parents and I was 81/2 months pregnant and it was actually the worst one ever it was almost like it was saying it’s goodbye in a really creepy way lol…but my life did change drastically after my child was born so maybe you might need a BIG change in your life and I don’t mean have a kid…but just as an example a big move or something like that.

  14. Mary says:

    I have these happen to me as well, among other things. I even wake up with marks on me that fade in just seconds after waking up. I also wake up still physically feeling what happened in the dreams. I ]
    “wake up” about 3 times, before actually waking up.

    I’ve had 2 or 3 outer body episodes, where I get up out of bed, then feel strange & turn around to see my body still lying in bed.

    I was diagnosed with Sleep Apnea in 2003 & have used a Bi-Pap machine since then when I sleep, but these things still happen to me quite often.

    I would assume these things happen because I have some psychic abilities. Nonetheless, it is scary to experience the “night teoors”.

    I have had 2 sleep studies done which show nothing other than I quit breathing in my sleep several times. I’m thinking of trying for another sleep study where they specailize in these paranormal issues rather than medical issues. Maybe see a parapsycologist.

    Good Luck with solving or at least understanding your issue.

    i have had the same problem now for 4 years, i hallucinate nearly every night and now in the day to. doctors are trying to figure it out as i also stop breathing and my heart palpatates. my normal ones are of a little girl in a vicorian dress and for some reason she wants me to follow her so i do. i have thespide ones where there swinging off the celings. i have faces coming out of the airing cupboard and of faces at the bottom and side of my bed. recently i have been pinned down to the bed although mine was a bit different than yours. mine felt like it was touching me sexualy and i couldnt move no matter how much i tried. this has been the worse so far…… last night was fairies coming out of the celing….the doctor asked me if i was an addict or ex addict but i can honestly say i havent ever taken drugs…. she gave me temazipan today to take for 7 days… i hope this works or its sleep clinic next

    Daniela,
    Have you ever tried journaling these dreams? Maybe writing them down might help you discern some sort of pattern, like the day, time, or some other factor. If you try this, make sure you write down your state-of-mind prior to going to bed, things you ate or did prior to bedding down, and the time/day of the occurance.
    Sometimes seeing the pattern that exists, assuming there is one, will empower you in some way.

    Hey, i came from Philippines. I know aBOut ur experience coz i also had like those before. But now, it all vanished. I just always pray. And go to church once in a week. I also stop playing the ouija board. I know how it feel, so terrifying to saw strange things in my room. I dont want 2 hapPen again to me, so i ask for GoD’s guidance. It works 2 me.

    The first time I felt the paralysis was 9 years ago. I was 21 and had spent the first night with my boyfriend of the time. Then in the morning I heard someone knocking at the door, but I couldn’t move to open it. Usually, I can never open my eyes
    This has happened many times and I often dream I’m choking in my sleep. But last week, I felt the paralysis and felt something was lying on me (I was sleeping on the belly) and I tried to move in vain. Then i managed to open my eyes. Looked left and saw this black creature with hemispheral glass eyes on me. I struggled to mouth “who are you?” and it disappeared and I could move.

    I don’t know the link but the place where I live is known to have some weird vibes (loads of cemeteries, catacombs, very very old churches. My apartment is 400 years old.
    The night this happened to me I had been doing “metta meditation” of which purpose is to send good vibes and love. That particular night I really felt the good energy coming in and out, so…
