You ever just spot a random American in your dream that wants to either look for something sinister or want to harm you? Last one was a Canadian man trying to murder me with his bare hands and way too tall for anyone's good.

Personally, I don't see demons in my dreams or nightmares unless they impersonate someone dead or recently deceased. I have seen entities (blue hued deceased couple, black smoky shadow with red eyes, and translucent but visibly clothed spirits) in my lifetime.

When I was young, playing by a creek, I was by a patch of grass that was very short,t and a rabbit was there. I saw him run away and midway through this patch, he just disappeared.  Nowhere he could have burrowed or hid or anything like that, like he was just erased out of existence. I remember feeling an absolute chill and got out of there and have never gone back.  

A few days ago when i was walking by the street during night i saw a woman naked far away in the distance i was on the walkway the side of the road she walked in the middle of the road and laid their it was weird i ran without turning back i saw a car passing but I didn't cared what happened. 

Oh man i love irl spooky stuff, but i am a very skeptical person, always looking for that spooky and "true" videos/stories about ghosts and the paranormal, but usually 95% of those are painfully fake, but sometimes - SOMETIMES i find that 5%, the diamonds in the mud if you will.

Anyways aside from my ramblings, i do suffer from sleep paralysis, first i thought this is a fake phenomenon too like every other creepy story, but when i experienced it the first time it did change my mind on things. Usually i get these when i do some garbage ganja - don't have to get into that detail more - the very first time i experienced this paralysis, it was only auditory, but it felt absolutely real.

The thing was, that i was sleeping on my bed, as you do at nights and i woke up and i heard running - up and down - at the front of our house. I lived back in the day in a village in the middle of nowhere, so i thought it has to be my dog or cats, nothing too strange. But after a while i heard human noises which in itself would not be too creepy, but these were strangers noises that i was not familiar with and i clearly heard they were yelling stuff like "we need to kill everyone" and other morbid stuff like that. Now i know this absolutely sounds like total bs, but i assure you, i heard what i heard, and of course when i wanted to move i could not. First i thought i was paralyzed with fear and that's why i could not move - and to be fair to myself, hearing threats like that at a younger age was creepy - still i just could not get up and the running noises and the yelling was going on for a good 5 minutes.

After these events i must have fallen asleep, because i have no other memory of this, and obliviously i asked my parents if they heard anything during the night, but they denied everything and also nobody was hurt or stuff like that. So that's when i got it together in my mind that it had to be sleep paralysis. (i heard about it in a podcast before so that's why i knew it existed in the first place)

Since then i did move out from that old house to the big city - for unrelated reasons - but let me tell you in that old house, especially in my room i had much-much more auditory paralysis moments and nightmares too, so much more compared to my current place.

Still even after these events i am really skeptical about paranormal stuff, but as i mentioned, i do experience that 5% high that i can't explain and i love it, since our world is kinda boring and spooky stuff like this adds some amount of spice to it.

I remember way back when I was still in school,  I used to have this bunkbed , which was built for me and my sister. We both shared the room during day time at night however I slept alone in that room on the Lower bunk.

My sister was too much of a scaredy cat to sleep on the upper bunk. 

Now our house was a bit on the outskirts of town , so we had not many neighbors , most of our neighbors were at least 30 mins away.  We had a nice big garden and bit of  woodlands nearby nothing too freaky. 

I remember as kid  hearing people walking in our garden at night,  I usually pegged that to animals.  So never gave much though to it.

One night I  as was half asleep , I hear my sister or something that sounded like my sister say" peek a boo , good morning, hello " repeatedly  from right behind the head rest. It was above my head and worst part was that I couldn't move.  It kept repeating the phrase I mentioned earlier again and again.

I hate being disturbed when I am sleeping and my sister has a habit of annoying me when I sleep. So my first reaction was that the thing was my sister, I started getting irrationally angry .

I have never been that level of angry in my life till then  even now , I don't know what came over me at that instant , I felt Hate  for that thing, I despised it from the bottom of my soul , I felt like clawing it head off and I wanted to hear it scream.

I heard something tear, like the sound you hear when something made of leather or flesh gets torn apart.

I realized I could move my right arm, so I took the opportunity and swung as hard as I could straight at my "sister" .

Halfway through the swing I  realized this thing was not my sister ,  it's arms were too long . By then my fist hit the thing smack in the middle of its face . The headrest got broken by my upper arm hitting it , I had a fracture due to that.

Anyway the moment my fist connected with the thing's face , there was no resistance,  my hand went through its face and right into its torso. I felt the creature around my hand , soft like velvet . It was like a cloth of some sorts.  

Then my hand started hurting where it made contact with the headrest ,that made me fully awake.

Then I scooted quickly to my sister who was sleeping on the couch in the living room and pushed her aside and slept next to her.

The only logical explanation for that event was sleep paralysis, I hope it was just that.

I love spooky stories! I also go along ghost tours quite often :)
I have many experience with the paranormal  - I'll share one. 

When i was in my early years, my family and i lived in this townhouse, and pretty much the day of living there, our doorbell which we had installed would randomly bark like a dog, along with the curtains near the door would move like someone had walked past. This happened every now again over the years, and at night time.

In our rooms we had floorboards so obviously you hear different sounds when walking through the room. and some nights you wake up from hearing the floorboards squeak as it sounded like someone was walking towards the bed, you'd feel a dip into the end of the bed like someone sat on the edge of the bed, and tapping your leg as a comfort thing. Every time we would wake up - There was nobody there but still had a comfort feeling. 

We ended up relaying this to the realtor who sold us the house, and we were advised a few past owners shared the same experience. So upon further investigation I found out it was an elderly man who lived there in the early 1960's and he had a dog.

The house we lived in, in the uk when I was a kid. We had this one wall that no matter what my parent put up on it stuff would always shift,  photos would never stay straight, mirrors would crack/break, wallpaper would peel off.

I swear I would she figures in shadows, hear footsteps and door/cupboards open close when I was home alone 

mum called in a priest to do an “exorcism” and everything stopped 

I wish I could go back to that house just 2 rip that wall out, out of curiosity 🤣

Bump, spooky stories are the best.

Maybe not paranormal but this one time when i was in malaysia I spent a week in a hotel and one night there I got a random phone call from the lobby with someone heavy breathing on the phone than hurd whispers coming from the bathroom in there and saw what looked like a shadow man at the corner of my eye. All this at 2am when i woke up from the phone call so maybe a dream or something but was the weirdest and creepiest experience I had the only really trully scary experience I ever had was seeing a family member speak nonsense cause they where high on a drug and where being a psycho for like 6 hours

7-8 years ago I and my brothers riding motorbike at night, my brothers curses alot cause his brake doesnt work properly, I can say if in that area, many local residents believe in mystical things, and believe dont curses in any place that's not your home/village

after he cursing the impact is slowly appear when two of us went riding back to home, from the last intersection I started to smell something like rottenflesh - trash or idk what it was. I just think "oh its my brother smell cause the long ride, or it was a garbage truck or dumpster around this road"

but is not, I sniff the jacket, and my jacket, is not from us

the smell consistently around 2-3 kilometer and when we stopped at gas station I check the tires, and I see nothing is there, like a rotten cat or rat on our tires

the smell slowly disappear when we leavin the gas station, until now i dont know what's the source of the rotten smell

I wont say its a ghost, but inded, its an unusual smell with mysterious source
