The ten-year-old witness shared a bedroom with her sister and suddenly woke up late one night. The room was dark except for a hint of moonlight through the curtains. Her eyes adjusted so that she could watch and watch her sister sleeping in her bed across from her. 

Next to her sister's bed stood a very tall black figure, darker than the night. She couldn't make out any features, as if it looked vibrating, though completely black. She tried to call her sister, but she couldn't speak. 

Then the shadowy figure passed through the middle of the room to the door and disappeared.

Сонный паралич

  • In a moment, the man suddenly feels on top he bore down on something very hard and does not allow him to breathe, as if strangling.
  • Quite often people say that in that moment, when they sleep, they feel that they can move neither head, nor foot, nor arm, literally nothing. Among other things, a person becomes unbearable fear.
