Sleep Paralysis...
#22
RE: Sleep Paralysis...
Quote:There was a psychological terror to that, but never any physical symptoms.


Several years ago I met a female geologist who told me about a friend of her's who was dealing with some sort of terrifying paranormal/supernatural 'experience'. The episodes as described were text-book SP.  This friend was Singaporean and she really thought that, IAW her cultural beliefs, she was being attacked, stalked and haunted by demons.  This girl was college educated which kinda surprised me.

I gave my geologist friend the book "Why People Believe Weird Things" to pass on to her friend.  I fail to understand how is it that a college educated individual can believe in such non-sense...
