Hey guys. This is not a larp. I am healthy and of sound mind. My whole life I've had occasional sleep paralysis. Usually a few times a year. It started occurring more often a few years ago, and I would have it every night for a few days every few months. It's happened almost every night the past two weeks. This time it has been accompanied by growling. It sounds like a big dog growl. Last night, I was having trouble sleeping and watched a little tv. After I turned it off as soon as my back hit the bed, I was instantly paralysed. My leg moved about a foot to the left, it was involuntary. There was no growl, but a low-pitched hum, and I saw a figure to the left of my bed. It was a nonhumanoid shadow, didn't look like much of anything really. Not sure if it's related to any of this, but I felt I should post it just in case. No coincidences right?
