Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Visit from the night hag or sleep paralysis

Who knew it was a condition? I always figured it was in my mind. Interesting...

Ya picked the wrong night to stop taking acid...

Go on and get ya some good 'ol fashioned 'window pane' or 'purple haze' or some 'superman' and you'll be right as rain again.

i was thinking my ex found me

Aren't those succubusses usually accompanied by another being called a suckyerazz (aka divorce lawyer)?

There are some deep, and very dark (the black and white format contributes) sleep lab videos that exist of this phenomenon.

I knew I shouldn't have read this right before dozing off.

No kidding!

Sleep paralysis. Experienced it 2-3 times. Become aware of being awake, aware of exiting some frightening dream, but paralyzed. Sensation of trying to use every ounce of strength to move and yell, sometimes got a moan of sorts out while coming out of it. Seems realistically it lasted a few scary seconds, hard to say, it's only happened when alone. No real pattern that can tell.

Don't care for it!

so you were raped by some real horny female ghost who liked to be on top? could be worse things...

ya could have been raped by a male homo ghost...

Sometimes it helps being a good Methodist boy.

Back about age 10 I had a bad case of measles. It started at the end of February and I made it back to school just about now. I had lingering side effects until the next fall. One of them was night paralysis. I'd wake up, usually after first light, and be totally unable to move and my breathing felt constricted.

Me? Firmly convinced God had protected me for something bigger and better in life, I decided that I must still be asleep and decided to stop worrying and go back to sleep. After all, he had brought me through the measles, right? This happened about a half-dozen times before finally going away before I started 6th grade.

The problem came back after back-to-back episodes of pneumonia about several years ago. This time, I was more curious than anything else. During one episode, I decided to test what it would take to gain control of my limbs. It took some doing, but concentrating on moving my toes, I found that all of a sudden I'd regain movement in one foot, and then quickly the rest of my body would follow suit. The flow of it was like getting a stuck bolt moving with a wrench.

One other thing to add: I was telling my parents of these episodes, and my father said he had been having bouts of night paralysis since he was a child, and had also grown used to them. He reported a frequency of 1-2 per year since age 8. This was about 6 months before he died just short of 85. No one else in the house knew what we were talking about.

Wet dream???

I have had them when I was younger

I've had dreams where I couldn't move, or fight back, but they always ended with me getting pizzed and delivering a major shot to them that would invariably wake me up.

I've never seen anyone else in the room.

That's exactly my scenario...to a "T". I can't yell...only moan. I'm telling myself "Wake up! Make yourself wake up and move! " but I can't do it. Wifey will hear me moan, wake me up by shaking me. Can't even think about going back to sleep at that time. I'll get out of bed, take a walk around, go visit my lab outside in her pen, lover her up a bit, try calm down, come back inside and try to go back asleep. Happens about once a year. Very frightening.

Have had them numerous times. Always connected to a spiritual event of some type.

The male version is an incubus

I've had at least 3 experiences. All were at the end of an afternoon nap when I was dead tired. The brain was functioning, but nothing else was. I was telling myself to open my eyes, lift my arm or leg, move anything! Nothing moved and all physical sensations were totally numb. It was the freakiest sensation ever. The first time it happened was the worst because I was convinced I was paralyzed. During subsequent events I knew what was going on ... that's the level of consciousness I have during these. I now avoid afternoon naps.

How'd you fare last night?

this is one ominous thread.

Wasn't there a movie where a woman was ghost raped during her nightly sleep?

Found it...The Entity with Barbara Hershey.

Storyline

Carla Moran awakens one night to find herself being beaten and raped by an unseen presence. Terrified of what's happening to her, and shunned by friends and family who think she's lost her mind, she seeks help from parapsychologists. The researchers soon discover that evil spiritual force has been drawn to Carla and is responsible for the violent attacks. The question now, however, is how do they stop it?

Based on a supposedly true story.

Had them a few times many years ago. I could feel the strong presence of pure evil nearby.

Someone told me to say, as i think the Lord did, "Get the behind me, Satan". I did, totally relaxed and went back to sleep like a baby. Might have done it once or twice more but he learned his lesson and left me alone.

Get thee behind me Satan for it is written, fear (worship) only the Lord, thy God, and worship Him only.
