Experienced what some call sleep paralysis one night, last year. First time ever had something like that-never forgot the experience. Some kind of dark entity. Demon if you want to call it that, was in the room. Thought it was an intruder. It couldn't come close, though. Something benevolent was there keeping it away. And I couldn't see the benevolent force, although I could sense it next to me. It kept me at peace the entire time, told me to go back to sleep, that it was okay. Makes me believe there is something good out there protecting us.
