Encounters x351 - Sleep Paralysis | Demons, Entities & Alternate Realities

Sleep paralysis is terrifying, but what if the nightmare doesn’t end when you wake up? This week, we’re diving into chilling encounters with shadow figures, mysterious voices, sinister entities, cursed games, and a mind-bending journey through alternate realities. And if you’ve ever considered playing Red Door, Yellow Door, this might be the episode that changes your mind. Sleep paralysis experiences include: A recurring sleep paralysis demon appears to swallow the storyteller’s loved ones, only to disappear after a death occurs in the family. A terrifying sleep paralysis episode leads to a black figure in the corner, a mysterious voice, and a bizarre journey through multiple versions of reality. A shadowy figure named Fred follows one listener through dreams, sleep paralysis, and eventually waking life. A frightening episode of sleep paralysis leaves one listener convinced that two mysterious men were planning to hide a body on a mountain. Watch the video version here.
