Mga Totoong Kwento Ng Kababalaghan

Part 5.

Sleep paralysis happens not to everyone. Science has tried to explain it. As I recall,  It is said to happen because of stress, tiredness and a condition which your brain is experiencing  both conscious and unconscious state which causes you to hallucinate things. Supernatural also gives explanation about this frightening experience.. It is said that a demon spirit is riding your body which causes you to unable to move and trap in your dreams but consciously awake.. As my research deepen about this topic. I became interested, for others said that as they continue to experience this nightmare they also discover the other much more scary things behind this. It is Lucid Dreaming which your soul separates from your body and as this continues to happen to you in the long run you may control it and do things beyond imagination.

My own experience starts when I was in 2nd year highschool. I was
and bout to take a nap I close my eyes then after a while I start to feel this unfamiliar dream.  I was trapped in a dark room wanting to escape a killer holding a knife determined to stab me. I run, but I saw no doors nor windows. I force myself to wake up but I was unable to move. With all my force I tried to move my fingers and that's when I woke up sweaty and scared. I shrug off that dream for I thought that was the first and the last.. Days, months and years went by I dream normally.. Until, this nightmare came back. I was in first year college when I experience sleep paralysis again. At around 10pm in the middle of sleeping I woke up but I was unable to move, my eyes are half open, I tried to survey the place since I am alone but I can sense another presence with me but I saw no one. Though i feel so sleepy i didnt let my brain shut my consciousness for I feel I may be trap there forever. This happens many times but I was strong to surpass it..
Im getting used to this experience since Im not new to this anymore. I was able to adjust in this kind of nightmare. I was in 3rd year of college and it happens again, this time it was different. I was lying in my bed facing the wall (side position) I drifted to sleep but suddenly I was awaken by this familiar feeling.  In my mind "Ah!  Im experiencing sleep paralysis again." Im determined to wake up as soon as possible when I felt a presence  beside me I move my eyes to Side but saw no one but I know the presence is near me or just beside me. My brain panic for this has leveled up. I prayed. Believing that a prayer will save me and so,it did. Months went by, Im thankful that nigtmares gave me a break and let me have a normal sleep.. Not long, until 3 months passed,  It came back! I was peacefully sleeping until I heard a laugh first it was a plain laugh like a normal person do. I thought it is real its on tv or one of my family but then i thought who would laugh at this hour in the middle of the night when all are sleeping! I tried to open my eyes but i feel so sleepy but i was able to open it partially I scan my side no one was there. Then a laughter was heard again That time I had goosebumps for it was a satanic laugh like it is laughing very near my ears It isn't a whisper for it is so loud! .. With all my might I tried to wake up but I cant I start to panic but it only gotten worse and Im scared but i can do nothing about it. I remember to pray that was my last resort. I prayed Our father 3 times and then with God's power I woke up.. 
After a week another episode happened This time it the worst of all,  Im sleeping with my sister but I woke up in the middle of ny sleep. Unable to move and speak I dont know what to do Im afraid that its another level of frightening experience. And Im not mistaken for when my eyes move to survey my place I saw a Shadow its like a Priest lighting a candle just meters away from me. I can't take my eyes on the shadow. I dont know but i feel that its looking at me too.  I panic, wanting to cry. I was scared to death when Its getting near me... I called Jesus. My brain continues to reach out to him ' In the name of Jesus I cast all evils away." i shout it in my brain 3 times. Without doubt I escaped that horror with the power of My savior. Until now Im in my 4th year and i didn't experience another worst episode like that. If i had its just like my 2nd experience and Im not scared anymore because I experienced worst.
