Hi all,
I've experienced these episodes since I was a teenager. My mother was seeing this guy who said he was a high priest and one day they got into an argument of some sort where she wouldn't answer the phone when he called. Being a rebellious teenager, I answered the phone after getting tired of all the ringing and told the guy to "go to hell" thinking that was hilarious given what he said he was affiliated with. That night was when things started happening.
I woke up in the middle of the night to see a dark shadow floating over me and it felt like it was holding me down. I could not move and could not scream. My sister was lying right next to me but as much as I tried I couldn't cry out to her to wake her up. I'm not sure when it went away or when I passed out. I told my mom about the incident the next day and she told me it was a demon and if was to happen again pray and it will go away.
The next night, the same thing happened and I started to pray. It was so hard to pray. I felt my head was all jumbled and I couldn't remember the prayers and kept mixing them up. But the thing did go away.
Years have passed and I have moved away from that house several times, but this thing has followed me. As the years progressed, it's happened less frequent. It followed me when I went to Florida for a weekend and stayed at a friend's house. I always wake to see the room I'm in and see any person who is next to me but I can't ever move or make a noise.
The "entity" has gotten stronger though throughout the years it seems. In the last few years, a loud ringing noise has started to go off in my right ear. It's very hard to describe this noise. It's gotten louder and louder with each experience.
In 2007, it has happened twice. The first time that year, I had been sleeping on the couch of one of my friends. I woke up and see my friend's living room just fine. Then I realize that I can't move and the ringing noise starts going off in my ear, low at first and then it hits a very high decibel. This evening as much as I prayed nothing would help. It finally did eventually go away, but this time it left me with a horrible headache that lasted 2 days, even taking medicine was not helping. I had never experienced actually feeling ill from an episode.
Then July 2007 was my last experience for that year. My boyfriend and I were on vacation. We had gone out to the hill country for the weekend. I had talked with him about my experiences and saying how odd it was that I hadn't had any experiences for awhile. That night, I had woken up starting to hear the high pitch noise but this time I was able to move. I walked out of the bedroom and went into the other room where my boyfriend was there reading a book and told him what just happened. He came into the bedroom with me and watched me as I slept. He said he was watching me for about half an hour, he remembered the time because he heard the cartoons that were playing in the living room tv. He fell asleep. Within minutes of him falling asleep, it happens. He wakes up because he hears me whimpering and shakes me.
It has now been over a year since the last experience in the country. Last night my friend and I were talking about my experiences because we were discussing how I am pretty sensitive to paranormal things. I've had other experiences with other things before. I told him about my night visits and how I hadn't had them in quite some time. Well last night it happened again. I'm not sure if it's because of speaking about it has given it power or made it remember. Anyhow, it was about 5am. I heard my boyfriend in the bathroom taking a shower. Not long after that, I started having that sensation again and the loud ringing in my ear. It eventually went away right before my boyfriend got out of the shower and came into the room.
I'm really not sure what it is, I've heard and read so many different theories from sleep paralysis (which I do not believe it is because I've seen a dark shadow) to psychic vampires.
Anyone else experience anything like this?
Thanks for reading!

Kind of sounds like Trains experiences.You should talk with her. I myself have had that experience once in my life when I was a teenager. I woke up because i felt like someone was watching me and I saw the shadow outline of a man with an old derby style hat on. I tried to yell for help but couldnt and I also couldnt move. I then closed my eyes and eventually I could move and opened my eyes and there was nothing there.
Yes, talk to Train. She has had simiar experiences.
🙁 Yes Sami i have had those experiences plague me for many years, from not being able to move nor talk , to sex acts where i was just lying there and could not talk , to a man who came three times trying different attempts to electrocute me, i was very upset and scared at all that has happened to me..all my stories are here in the forums and to this day i have still no answers, i try to see the electrocution as being a warning that two years later my younger brother Danny would die of electrocution, but im just not so sure, i have been told its stress in my life, sleep disorders, i just have no real answers, however i did find my protection animal ( i know there is another name) i bought the blanket with the animal a wolf and the other a bird, which if i put the blanket blackwards ontop of me i recieve no images, sleep disorders etc. if the blanket is ontop of me properly for whatever reason it allows the problems to re-enter my head, please read my stuff in the forums..
Im so sorry to hear you are indeed having the same problems as me, i know its upsetting and most people will not believe you or think you are mad, except for people in this community being the paranormal that will actually understand
Thank you for sharing and welcome to livescifi ((((((Sami hugs)))))

So it happened again. It's been over a year and a half and now twice in the last 2 weeks.
Early Wednesday morning I woke up from having fallen asleep on the couch and went to bed. This was around 3:30am. I remember talking to my boyfriend and a friend of ours who had come to visit for a few weeks before heading off to bed. My dog peanut follows me into the bed and I am lying down facing the wall. She then gets off the bed and goes outside where the guys are.
After she leaves the room, I feel a presence behind me. And that's when it started. I couldn't move and I couldn't make a noise. I tried praying but it wouldn't go away. There wasn't the extreme loud noise that I've been hearing in my right ear for the last few years. I can hear my boyfriend and our friend talking out in the living room. I tried to cry out but all I could get was "mmmmmmm....". But they didn't hear me. This time though, I felt like something was pressing down on my chest and I couldn't breathe. Every little "mmmmm" I was letting out, I couldn't breathe that air back in. It seemed like an eternity when I was finally able to cry out for help and my boyfriend came into the room. This has probably been one of the most frightening experiences.
That has got to be a frightening experience.
If this isn't paranormal, it could be focal seizures, or TIA's(temporary ischemic attacks, like a temporary stroke) or a variation of a migraine. Go see a doctor. (trust me, i'm a paramedic)
Use logic and science to rule out anything medical before you jump to the paranormal.
If it isn't medical, again, use science and logic to rule things out. This is what Livescifi.tv is all about...
1. set up a video camera looking at your bed. If nothing happens, rewind and repeat.
a. If something happens, save he tape and review it as soon as possible for EVP and anomalies.
2. research this type of phenomena, and talk to people who have had similar experiences (i.e. Train, Rhyno, etc).
a. find out how these people dealt with it, or have a cleansing.
3. lather, rinse, repeat....ummm, no that's not it......remember, groups like this exist to help people with these types of issues. We are not here for entertainment, but to find scientific proof of paranormal activities, and help where we can. You are not alone.
4. If in doubt, go back to the top of this post, and repeat...
BOOM!!!...Cow.

Great advise Hank!
I would be terrified to go to sleep at night if I had experienced something like that!!! 😮
