While napping I was suddenly "awakened" when it felt like something was sitting on my chest and preventing me from moving.
I thought wow this is what sleep paralysis feels like, and I felt no fear just interest.
I couldn't move though so after a minute or so I decided to try an experiment.
I gathered my energy and "fought" against what was holding me down

Funny as it sounds but it felt like something was fighting back.
After some effort I was able to "banish" it.

I never said anything to anyone, about 2 weeks later I casually asked my daughter about the entity and she said it had not been around for awhile.
I told her if it Comes back let me know.

About 3 months later she tells me it has come back and it told her it really didn't like me.

That night I did the same thing, and later that same night I had a virtual repeat of the sleep paralysis.

Same result, after a couple of weeks when I asked my daughter, she said the entity had only been there the one day.
I told my family about my experiment and everything that had happened.

A few months later y daughter said it was back again and really angry.
I told her to tell it that I kicked it's a## twice aready and I would do it again if it didn't leave.

She has not seen it since.

Now I cannot explain it, I never saw an entity, and as far as I am concerned I had a couple of events of sleep paralysis that I brought on myself by convincing myself to do the experiment.

I am putting it out there and you guys can decide for yourself.
I found it to be a very interesting experiment

I don't believe in the supernatural and have struggled to explain what happened to me.
I believe in the scientific explanation of sleep paralysis, but I have to admit the timing was weird unless you believe that i had just spooked myself
Either way i believe it makes for an interesting story

Bill that story gave me goosebumps. As a Christian I believe you DID fight with a demon and did vanquish it. You say you are not spiritual and my faith tells me you are wrong, but I would fight and die for your right to believe this way. A person's belief or non belief is their own personal choice. Should we think any less or them, should we demean them, should we avoid them because of their belief or non-belief? I don't think so. And this covers EVERYONE, Christian believer or non believer, Muslim, Buddhist, Hindu or what ever religion you claim.

While we are on this earth what we need to concentrate on is being nice, peaceful to one another, recognizing our differences yet not letting them cause us problems. I have said before, probably 95 or more percent of us just want to live our lives in peace and happiness, willing to let everyone believe as they wish an not let that cause problems.

I have said it before in a joking manner, but this time I mean no joke and most of us know the line. "Can't we all just get along". Wouldn't it be nice if all the world got along as well as we do here.


LONG LIVE THE BROTHERHOOD OF THEY YARD! And may it never stop growing.

I've had sleep paralysis three times. Once when I was about 10 years old, once while I was in the Marine Corps, and once about a year ago. All three times it scared the crap out of me, but the most recent time I swear I felt a presence in the room with me. I never saw anything, but I swear someone else was there. It's hard to explain it to someone who has never experienced it.

@Flux - I think I agree with Randy. Those bigots and intolerant radicals draw an awful lot of negative attention, just one bad actor can hog alot of media coverage. The military refers to bad actors as the "ten percent" and they can make the whole military look bad. If Randy says 95% of us just want to get along (which I happen to agree with) then that leaves 5% of the population comprised of bad actors, which is alot in my book.
