      Its really scary right! I have had it a few times. Its all in your head and it only lasts a few seconds although it feels like hours. Its when our body is paralysed in dream sleep but our consciousness wakes before our body is ready, our brain continues to dream whilst our eyes are open. In the olden times they used to think it was something called the night hag! Ive studied thousands of peoples sleep and I havent seen a night hag yet!!
