It was about 20 years ago a few months before I met my husband. I had 4 children and worked two jobs. My parents helped me with my children.
I came home from my first job around 3:00 p.m. I didn’t have to go in to my 2nd job that evening so my parents we’re gonna bring my kids to me. I was gonna take a little nap before they got there. I went to my room and laid down on my back with my face facing towards the window. I dozed off.
All of sudden I can sense something coming down the hall it felt evil and humongous. I could sense that it was so big that it’s shoulders we’re touching both sides of the walls in the hallway and it was so tall that it had its head bent over so that it could fit down the hall. It stopped at my doorway and was looking at me.
I could not move at all. It was like something was holding me down. I remember straining my neck so hard trying to turn and look at it but I could not move. I just started cussing and screaming at it in my mind telling it to leave me alone. Then it laughed at me and turned away and walked down the hallway through the wall till it was gone.
As soon as it was gone I jumped out of my bed so fast I looked at the time because I wanted my parents there. I had only been asleep for about 20 minutes. I was terrified.
I still to this day think it was the Devil…

How did the thing turn around?
my daughter saw the devil he stands as tall as the walls. I heard his footsteps they are enormous. Sometimes there is a rotting stench smell if you are haunted by him. His head is that of a what history draws of the devil. He has a goatie. his eyes are black. his hands have long fingernails. his feet are of cloven hoofs like a pig. sometimes his skin is red other times his skin is white. Sometimes you may hear a loins roar. put on a cross for protection. when he touches the cross it will burn him.
It was just a half turn to the opening of the bedroom door to look towards me. Wow what a description thats really scary i’m glad my senses weren’t that detailed….It happend one other time when i was pregnant with my youngest son that was 18 years ago. It’s never happened to me again but it’s happened to all of my kids except one just not as intense as mine was.
If it makes you feel any better, this could possibly be a case of sleep paralysis, which is quite common, although it can also be very scary and feel VERY real. The sensation of being held down or unable to move while some evil presence enters the room is very characteristic of it. It’s happened to me a few times, and it sucks! But it’s harmless, so sleep tight.
Yup, your description of what happened is typically sleep paralysis. If there is an evil entity hanging around your apartment, then you may have had encounters with it several times, seeing that this only happened once dismisses the probability of a haunting.
Thanks its only happened one other time and that was 18 years ago. Does it usually happen so quickly i was only laying down for about 30 minutes at the most. I’m gonna look into sleep paralysis. Thanks..
Yes, it could happen that fast, especially if you were particularly tired at the time and went into dream state quickly.
When you go into REM or dream state, your body paralyzes you to keep you from thrashing around and acting out your dreams. But occasionally a person may wake up just before their body does, and feeling frightened or seeing/sensing evil entities in this condition is very common. It can feel extremely real, but it isn’t.
This is not to say that such things can’t be paranormal, but If this happens to someone frequently, a sleep study might be in order before hiring an exorcist!
Thank you for your advice. I looked it up yesterday and i like that idea better then the Devil himself coming to see me lol. I kinda feel safer now.
Good, I figured you might. Happy to help.
