Didnāt unravel that mystery until I experienced sleep paralysis for what I thought was the first time a couple years ago. Fun stuff.

Ooooofff!!! That does not sound fun. Hope thatās not a recurring experience.
The closest Iāve ever come to the supernatural has been a couple of times where I probably should have died and somehow, the universe decided to let me live that time. Itās happened at least three times and it feels a little intentional at this point.

Scary as hell qwq. Can you describe the alien?

I didnāt actually see the alien but a giant stereotypical UFO that was moving very quickly and silently directly above the houses in the neighborhood before it flew off out of view. I legitimately thought it was real.
It was definitely sleep paralysis though. I had fallen asleep outside on my friendās patio furniture. There was no indication in my brain it was a hallucination because of how vivid it was and I took my body being frozen as frozen in fear. In 2020/2021 I had a sleep paralysis experience that was more nightmare/horror material but there were enough similarities that I finally was able to understand what had happened as a kid.

Mine was also sleep paralysis. A few years back, I fell asleep on the couch after a long session of gaming. I remember waking up in the middle of the night, fully conscious and able to move my eyes. But the moment I tried moving any muscle in my body, I would just feel this strong vibration prohibiting me from doing so. I couldnāt close my eyes either.
This wouldnāt have been an issue, but my head was staring right at the staircase leading to the basement. It was dark, but because of the moonlight, I could still see. I stayed like this for a while, just staring into the abyss, wondering when it would end. But all of a sudden, I see movement at the staircase. A lady with her hair covering her face started to crawl up the staircase. The closer she got, the more I realized that she was Sadako from the movie āThe Ringā. As I lied there frozen, unable to look away, she got closer and closer and closer. Time seems to have stopped at this point, and I felt like I was drenched in sweat from fear of what I was seeing. Eventually, she got within breathing distance of me, her hair still blocking her face. I think I would have preferred it if it stayed this way. But little by little, her eyes and ghastly face was revealed until eventually I was face to face with this horrifying image. At this point, I was trembling and doing anything to move myself and eventually it worked and I snapped awake. When I woke up, I was completely drenched in sweat. I had to put on music for me to finally feel safe going back to sleep.
This would end up happening two more times in the span of a week, and then never again. To this day, itās been one of the most terrifying experiences Iāve ever had and there really isnāt any satisfying explanation as to why it happened that week.
Edit: Looked very close to this, but with more hair, and more deranged eyes

My latest sleep paralysis experience wasnāt as horrific as that but it was close. I fought so hard to move but I couldnāt. I could close my eyes but it didnāt stop the sounds of the thing talking to me. At one point I closed my hand, which was partially open, on it but I didnāt āfeelā anything as opposed to hearing it protest my grip. My partner was sleeping next to me and I tried so hard to move just enough to wake him so he could help me but I was locked in place. Eventually I could move and then at that point, I felt like an idiot. I would wake him up and then what? Tell him I had a bad dream?
After that night, he let me sleep with the lights on for about a month, haha.
I have nightmares nearly every night so Iām used to them (this is not to say they arenāt still stressful, traumatic, etc.) but sleep paralysis is another beast altogether. You have no control over the situation. The feeling of helplessness and how real the hallucinations look and sound are really traumatic.
