I dreamed I was with multiple classes from my high school on a road trip to some medieval castle (we have lots of those, with lots of spooky stories to attract tourists). In my dream, we had entered some underground tunnels beneath the castle and got divided into groups of 3-4. I felt kind of comfy with this experience, I’ve haven’t had many friends throughout high school but during this dream I felt really close to anyone and didn’t feel the slightest of fear while going down dark torch-lit corridors and catacombs. In the back of my mind, it’s like I knew this Castlevania bullshit is all a dream.
I noticed that each time me and my group open a door in order to advance through the corridors, things get more bloody. After opening 2 doors, we found some of the other kids torn to pieces in corners of the corridors, bleeding wildly on the red carpet that followed each corridor. This kept going and going until nobody was left, everybody was either killed by stereotypical traps or missing. I’ll mention that there were no scary dream monsters or that kind of stuff, simply guillotines, pitfalls, holes in the wall that shot arrows Indiana Jones-style.
Everything happened really fast, until I got to a massive wooden door. All doors I have encountered up until this point have been in the same style (pic related), only this one was a lot larger, like it was fit for a giant.

I'm just standing in front of the dream door and feeling pure primal dread. This is new, this dream didn't scare me a bit up until now.

I'll greentext what follows because it's a rapid succesion of whatthefucks that probably don't need more details.

>alarm on phone goes off
>wake up instantly
>feeling a little hazy, like i'm sedated or something
>pick up phone, it's 9:30 in the morning
>turn off alarm, i'm not feeling awake enough
>go back to bed instantly, like I was on autopillot
>pure void-black sleep, no more scary doors or traps or death

>wake up suddenly, everything is fucking silent in my room, like I'm in a dream
>something ain't right.png
>usually sleep with window open so I can hear cars and stuff from outside
>nope, this time is dead silent
>i notice all of this as soon as I opened my eyes

>also realise I can't move a fucking finger
>woke up on my right side
>fingers right next to my eyes
>i try to move them, only see fingertips twitching a tiny bit
>can't look around room either even if it's broad daylight
>i'm facing the wall
>back is turned towards my bedroom door
>hear loud bangs in my bedroom door
>what in the actual fuck
>if somebody knocked my bedroom door that hard it'd probably fall off
>BANG BANG BANG
>hear the door screech
>what the fuck I want to see what's happenning behind me
>trying to pull myself
>barely move fingertips
>door screeching end
>deafening WHAM
>sounds like it was smacked into the wall
>now I'm really starting to pick up that something isn't right

>lets go of my hip
>OH THANK GOD
>hear it loudly exhale, like a sigh
>whatever that is it's now walking towards the door
>something sad echoes through it's footsteps
>when it came in, it was enthusiasthic or trying to be intimidating
>now the way it steps makes it sound like it's disappointed
>throughout the gnawing part i wanted to react wildly and hit whatever that is in the face with my left fist, like in one swing where I move my body from my side to my back
>everything goes silent again
>I can hear the cars outside my window
>I'm waking up

might be a pattern with those "dream dog attacks", i'd like to know more

I remember two other instances of sleep paralysis throughout high school, with 2 different entities (both humanoid-like) and as far as I know they haven't been hostile or similar to this encounter with the "dog". Since I've started college it's like they left me alone, tho.

Op your etheric body was attacked via a etheric/astral entity. They usuallly do this to create fear and leech of your energy... next time this happens just dont show fear, show love, and they will go away.

I had sleep paralysis while experimenting with lucid dreaming. Had some amazing nights and then this scary morning.

I wake up and hear the early sounds of a typical Saturday. My parents are in the kitchen doing their thing and one asks if I'm awake. One comes up, pops their head around the corner and says "Nah, he's asleep."

But I'm facing away and I can't make any sound to the contrary. I struggle to roll over and panic that I am trapped. When I finally come free, I jump to my feet and instantly know something is wrong with what I just heard.

The morning sounds are gone. The lighting in the house has rolled back a few hours to a dawn grey. Everything is quiet. I walk through the house and find my parents in bed, ask them if they were just in the kitchen and they say they were not.

Fuckin' hallucinations.

Slept walked once as a child and went and watched TV in what I presumed was daylight. A parent came and shook me and all of a sudden it was midnight, dark room, TV off. That sudden transation for when your hallucinations stop is cray. Swear my daughter has the same thing some nights. One night she got up and went to the TV.

Had plenty of sleep paralysis. Happened a few times dreaming that aliens were trying to come into my room and I was holding the door shut. Start to wake up and can hear myself trying to scream in real life but can't really.The dreams were pretty scary. Don't think it was any kind of contact though. Just a dream.

I have these dreams all the time. I get sleep paralysis about once every 10 years and it's creepy as fuck. Usually I don't see anything, I just can't move and have these extreme presence of dread, like some sort of primordial terror feeling, but usually I don't see anything.

I have lots of those inception type dreams where I think I'm awake but actually sleeping.

I have lots of lucid dreaming too. The picture in op reminds me of a dream I had which fucked me up for almost 2 years. I met death in my dream and he showed me some crazy shit, it was very surreal. Then 3 days later one of my relatives died. Fucked me up hardcore desu. When I was at the funeral I stood over the casket to say a prayer, and I saw death's hand reaching out of the blackness to choke me like he did in the dream. Shit gave me the willies for a long time.

I guess death was trying to tell me not to take life seriously or something, who knows.

We all end up in a box one day, wouldn't have cared since I would have been dead. ;)

I have experienced two sleep paralysis, OP. Curiously, during the first one I didn't get scared because in the middle of it I realized what I was experiencing. I had previously read scientific accounts about sleeping paralysis, so I knew I wasn't experiencing any weird paranormal shit.

Last time i got sleep paralysis i heard women singing on french i dog barking like crazy but couldnt see a thing
