Awake, can't move, but still sorta dreaming, and you see/hear evil shit.
I've had a ghostly old hag standing over me as well as hellish music accompanied by a demonic child's laughter.
Yep. Thankfully, only once. I was in my first apartment and there was a drum kit in the corner that I had stacked up and draped a piece of red fabric over. It was hung from the ceiling and hanging down over the kit. I woke up, sorta, the red fabric looked like it was breathing, I couldn't move and I was absolutely terrified. The hallucinations that often accompany sleep paralysis are actually known as hypnagogia. They can occur with or without the paralysis. I recall reading something about a sleep disorder that wakes you up with a searing pain in your head. You scream, it goes away and you go back to sleep. I can't recall its name.
