Ghost Stories & Paranormal Encounters

Let’s talk about Sleep Paralysis. For those that have experienced it, it can be the creepiest thing you have ever encountered. It’s a feeling of being trapped by a force not visible to the eye.

When I started getting Sleep Paralysis, It was usually a certain time of the month. (no, not the lady’s cycle.) Whenever the moon was high enough until the wee hours of the morning, it would cast a light across some part of my body. Every time, I would get up, go to the bathroom, and lay back down and instantly feel paralyzed. As if something had my soul in a vice grip. I will not admit to seeing anything, as I must have seen a lot of things that may or may not have truly been there.

That went on monthly until I moved out of that room, and into the other room across the hall. Everything was fine, until one night, It happened again. I woke up around 2 am, went to the bathroom, and laid down, only this time, I remember laying my head at my feet, and my feet at my head, but when I sat up, my head was on my pillows, the opposite direction I remember laying down.

Interestingly enough, I don’t remember ever seeing my reflection when I went to the bathroom, I looked to the head of my bed, and sure enough, the moon had seeped into my room, and spilled onto my bed.  I never was able to figure out what was going on, maybe there was no direct link to the moon.

Nowadays, I not only get paralyzed, but I am deafened by loud noises when it happens. It is as if My senses are dulled to weaken me, (that’s definitely what it feels like) I am already blinded by the dark, deafened by the loud buzzing, and whining, and now, I feel pinned, trapped.

You are not the only one who feels this way, neither am I.
