Have you ever felt a hand
go through you hair
and when you opened your eyes
there was no one there!?
============
Have you ever awoke
and there was
a menacing
tall dark figure
at the end
of your bed!?
You can’t move a muscle
you can’t scream in fear
frozen in bed
of the dread!
============
Have you ever
again seen that
Tall Dark Menacing Man!?
But this time
flew out of bed
wrestled and fought back
but really … ouch …
just hit your head
on the nightstand
next to your bed!?
============
NO! YOU SAY!!
Well ………
What a boring life you’ve had … by the way!!!
============
And why does it always seem to be between 3:00 and 4:00am … again by the way!?
So the Lord’s Prayer I now do say!
Now The Mysterious Blabberer? 
Our Father,
which art in Heaven …

A couple of times, I woke up I believe around those same hours.
The first one, a girl with long black hair was crawling from my foot up while making a harrowing laugh. It laughed harder as I tried to scream but no voice came out. I couldn’t move. I woke up the moment it reached my neck.
Second time, I woke up and looked around. It was strange. It felt like I was woken up by something or someone. Suddenly, my pillow moved on its own and tried to kill me by covering my face. I woke up for real and gave my pillow a clean punch.
Sleep paralysis is a hell of a thing.

Christ was said to have been crucified around 3:00pm … So 3:00am has become known as the Devil’s Mark, Anti-Hour, witching hour, etc.
In horror movies and such, a hapless person will wake up and look at a clock and the time will inevitably be around 3am. And then there will be your typical ‘bump in the night’ fright moment!

When I was a kid I had a dream that I was walking in the pasture behind my family’s barn. I walked right up next to the barn and it started falling down on top of me. Right before it crushed me I banged my head on the table at the end of my bed.

Thanks…my last time for REM sleep night terrors was 1962…have had nightmares but they don’t bother me really. I just charge, not run.
We have dreams — including nightmares — during the rapid eye movement (REM) stage. Night terrors happen during deep non-REM sleep. A night terror is not technically a dream, but more like a sudden reaction of fear that happens during the transition from one sleep stage to another.
