Yes, I have experienced sleep paralysis.  It is so terrifying because for some reason, you do feel that someone is in the room with you and that you are in danger but you cannot make a single noise or move a single muscle.  Actually, the feeling that somebody is in the room with you is called hypnogogic hallucination.  It certainly is very terrifying.  However, although I used to experience this fairly often a few years ago, I have not had an episode like that for a long time.  \n\nHere is a site with lots more information about this condition.

I work in a sleep lab and I have seen this before, it is called sleep paralysis.  It is very normal and every night your body goes into a mini coma when in your deep rem sleep.  Sometimes you get up from rem too quick and your body has not recovered yet.  Maybe you took medications that made your rem sleep more dominant, or maybe your not sleeping long enough.  This problem usually is seen in older patients and patients on certain medications.

it's called sleep paralysis.\n\nSleep paralysis is a condition characterized by temporary paralysis of the body shortly after waking up (known as hypnopompic paralysis) or, less often, shortly before falling asleep (known as hypnagogic paralysis).

Yeppers. We have a little boy ghost. He's cooled down alot though. He used to run up and down our stairs and the hallway.\n\nAnd my mom had a dream and there was this little boy outside her window and she opened the window and took out the screen and was grabin his arm to help him in and his arm got all streatchy and when he got in her room his face got blurred and then my bro Eli called bc he said he just had this feeling that he had to call her. (He always does that when shes havin a bad dream) And then after that we heard running up and down the hallway and stairs. \n\nI'm afrade of the dark now because my brother closed my door and then i started hearing footsteps coming toward my bed and he was in his room. And i screamed and he came running into my room and i told him what happened. And now i sleep with my door open and the hallway light on.\n\nAnd we think we have a few other ghosts in our house.

It has happened to me. I have woke up and cannot move or speak. I try to scream and nothing comes oujt. I have even seen something approach me. TRY your HARDEST to move even a finger. Once you can do that you'll come out of it. I read that it has omething to do with the REM part of sleeping. The body wakes up during a deep sleep and that is why I would see something coming at me. Many others have been through the same thing. Talk to a sleep specialist or a neurologist.

yes I have that disorder, although I have never been diagnosed by a physician, I get a lot of comments about having sex dreams from friends when I stay the night at their houses, but mine all started when I was really really young and my sister died...hope that that helps

No, I haven't, but if you have you may want to see a doctor so you ask them about Night Terrors or other sleep disorders.

When I read your question a light bulb went off!  I am a pharmacy student and we talked about a very similar condition in class this week.  It sounds like you have "sleep paralysis" with "hypnogogic hallucinations."  In English: you have an abnormal sleep-wake cycle.  There are normal cycles when you are sleeping that you are physically paralyzed.  Rarely some people can mentally become awake at these times, but their bodies don't respond.  The hypnogogic hallucinations are similar to the paralysis.  They often present as feeling like you can't move and there is someone else in the room who wants to harm you.  They are often very scary and threatening.\n\nAs one of the other posters mentioned, these experiences usually happen when the person is fatigued during the day.  \n\nBoth sleep paralysis and hypnogogic hallucinations are common in people with narcolepsy.  Narcolepsy isn't always what you see in the movies where someone just falls asleep standing up.  The disorder is usually attacks of sudden weakness during the day and disturbed nighttime sleep.\n\nI am not ready to diagnose you with narcolepsy, but I do think what you are experiencing would be worth seeing a doctor over.

I have them constantly and it is really freakin' me out. It happens at around 11 p.m. at night. I climb into my bed to read a book and then suddenly I feel really strange. Next thing I know, it is morning. I can't explain this and it is really weird.

It is sleep paralysis..and I have had them for quite awhile. They can be scary but are completley harmless and it is acutally a sleep disorder. I seem to get them more when I am stressed out about something. And just to give you another piece of advice...sleep paralysis almost always happens when you are lying on your back.   Try sleeping on your stomach or side.

did someone hurt you? if so, tell me who it was, i'll deal with this person. if you rest, you should feel better when you wake up. if you are sick with something small, again rest is better, if you think it might be an illness thats gonna get worse, call your doctor.

For some reasons, I used to have nightmares that the headboard on my bed would come to life (if would have these teo cold looking beady eyes that sometimes glowed) and it would attack me, usually stinging me in the neck.  I would try to run away but it would send out some type of force where I could only run so far and no more, and I couldn't scream either.\n\nI used to wake up crying hysterically sometimes because of it.

You have what is refered to as the postdormtal form of sleep paralysis. I hope you have been tested to determine if there may be some potential problems, although in some cases, no known cause is apparent, other than it is a malfunction of REM sleep where paralysis is a normal occurring factor to protect us. \n\nFor a great deal of information on the subject go to the following sites: \nhttp://www.csicop.org/doubtandabout/sleep/\nhttp://www.stanford.edu/~dement/paralysis.html\nhttp://watarts.uwaterloo.ca/~acheyne/S_P.html

I never really knew the house was hunted untill after we moved out my father was talking about it.I was shocked other vistors also said they had experinces like mine and some even closer incounters. I rember at night i would here something and get so secard I would freez and not move till i fell a sleep and woke up the next day. I would hear people walking and no one would be there. come to find out the ghost was pretty nice. I think it was girl.
