Sleep paralysis monster
Added 2019-02-07 01:19:30 +0000 UTCWhen you have sleep paralysis your brain creates a dark figure that it places in a realistic recreation of your environment to shock you out of paralysis. People often experience a pressure on their chest and some variety of a shadowed figure being the cause.
This is the sleep paralysis figure my brain decided would work, it was a giant demon moth, frantically flapping above me. Each flap of its giant wings shadows would disintegrate off of it like a black fire turning creating ash. The pressure holding me down was actually the wind pressure from it’s desperate frightening hovering.
Thanks brain, I would have preferred just a dude choking me or whatever.

When I was twelve I woke to one of the masked creatures from Ocarina of Time with its hands in my chest, staring at me face to face. Didn’t sleep right for weeks after that.
