By definition, a nightmare is a dream that evokes intense emotions of unease, paralysing fear, and distress. The terror of the dream sinks into the bones of the person experiencing it, and it can create a permanent irrational or rational fear based on the subject matter. Traditionally, a nightmare is said to be created by a mythological, supernatural demon or spirit that plagues its victim with emotional torment and abuse whilst they sleep. Sleep paralysis is a little different. For some, they can wake up after a dream and are unable to move a muscle or talk; their body is completely paralysed. Their mind can wake up before their body does, so for a few seconds they're aware that they can't move. Stiles Stilinski would say that's what the most terrifying part is. For others, they're aware that they're dreaming, however, they can't remove themselves from the dream nor wake themselves up from it.
Ophelia Stone would tell you that her hellish nightmares and sleep paralysis over the last three weeks have been specifically caused by something she quite likes to refer to as the 'biggest bastard to ever exist.' In other words, the permanent darkness that remains inhabiting her body and mind. Whether it's a demon or not, she doesn't know. What she does know, is that the dreams she has been having are affecting her day-to-day life so much that she doesn't know how much longer she'll be able to keep powering forward and brushing them to the side.
