I Had a Christmas Nightmare

[gryphon]

Last night I went to bed around midnight. Around 2 am I find myself awake and there is something on my ceiling. it looked like a person but then it looked...like a spider. and I realized it was holding my blankets. I screamed and ran out of the room and woke everyone else up in my house. I came back in and my covers were on the bed and nothing was there. I was able to go back to sleep but I was freaked out and my family was now wide awake.

I told this to a friend and he joked that it was the krampus.......but was it a joke?

Have you been a bad boy?

Have you been a bad boy?

Well I was joking about it being the krampus..but it freaked me the hell out

[DaveP]

You realize whose birthday it is today, right? The krampus may be upset that you aren't giving him the respect he deserves. So please join me in wishing Justin Trudeau a very happy birthday.

So demons and the devil like Trudeau? This explains so much

[gryphon]

Well at the very least I got a good short story out of this

[gryphon]

It might have been the phenomenon called the old hag. which is something that occurs in sleep paralysis

Sounds like a Bad Bad Dream..

I had a feeling like that once when I was a kid (around 12-13) - I had a flu and mom had given me some meds for my symptoms (fever, cough, muscle aches, you know...) and I awoke sweating and seeing something black on top of me pinning me down and making me feel like the air was being squeezed out of my lungs. I never told mom, she was the superstitious type and would have read way too much into it... Always assumed it was some vivid dream combined with my flu... but I know how scary that is.

I had a dream many years ago where I felt wide awake, but must have been asleep because I'm pretty sure it wasn't real.

I'm in bed, under the covers and there is a dark shadow of a figure standing by the foot of my bed, about 2-3 feet away from the bed. A strong, large figure where I can't see any details, but it seems like a man. no hair on it's head, felt evil, really weird.

I could not move or make a sound. It was so realistic, that even now 20 years later I can recall the image and the fear I felt.


Sometimes when your brain flexing it's muscles it scares the poopies out of you Glad you were able to get away!

BTW, I still crawl into bed a certain way when the lights are out because I don't want the monster under the bed to get me. lol :p

I hate his hair, i think he's always looked like a douche. I'm not a fan of him in general.

What was your point Dave?
