Carlos Canas woke up to see a semi-transparent creature between 7 and 8 feet (2.1-2.4 m) tall that was emitting a green light and hovering in the air in his bedroom. 

It seemed to him that the creature had only eye sockets and no legs. The upper part of the hull was smaller than the lower one. He floated back and forth at the foot of the bed, as if looking at a witness. Kanas tried to scream, but no sound came out.

Finally, he ran out of the bedroom and into his grandmother's room. Later, when the creature returned to its room, it had already 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.
