Sleep Paralysis???




I had been messing around with lucid dreaming, practicing all the time with it. I had gotten home and decided to just take a nap early. I am wondering if it happened because my mind wasn't quite tired at this time of night yet. I had closed the door to keep the cats out of my bedroom and give me peace. I had been sleeping for about an hour and a half or so. I was in a position laying on my left side, pillow between my legs, and kind of hunched into a semi fetal position. This is when I had the "incident" I will call it. Keep in mind this is a dream, however I thought it was all happening. I saw Dave walk into the room, I could see everything in the room as it is set up, and I could feel my whole body in the position it was in. Dave walked around the bed, kind of backed into the closet and turned to face me from halfway in the closet and right next to the edge of the bed. He then took his right hand, palm facing downwards and fingers slightly parted open. He raised it over my head, and I got this terrible feeling. It felt like a very evil spirit is what was actually standing over me. As the hand faced my head, I felt this rush of energy starting from my head and just pulse down my body, freezing me in a terrible state of paralysis. It wouldn't have been so bad except I wanted desperately to begin to cover my head, and inch away from this dark being that was trapping me. I finally started to claw my way out of the grips and I was gripping the sheets and clawing my way towards the wall the bed was against. I was opening my mouth trying to scream for Dave to come into the room and grab my hands to help me get away from this entrapment. I was pulling and fighting my way trying to make it to the door and open it when all of a sudden my body was sucked back like a strong vacuum had made me pull back into my body.
I was in the exact same position as I had been paralyzed to be in, and that is when I realized I was still sleeping. This entity had moved down towards the bottom of the bed now and I could feel the wave of paralysis run down my body again. I again pulled myself up and was clawing my way towards the door away from the paralyzed state I was in, and again once I began to reach the door I was slammed back into my body. The entity had gone, but I felt that wave moving through my body holding me down in that same damn position I could not escape. This happened about 5 times, I kept thinking I was getting out of it, and each time was just trapped again into my body. Very terrifying experience. Once I woke up for real, I slowly moved around, not sure if it was another trick, and quietly called Dave to come into the room. I freaked out thinking it was something actually real, and was a wreck. Didn't sleep with the door shut for months after, and usually couldn't go into the bedroom alone and would sleep on the couch until I got over my fear of sleeping in the bedroom again.
