      was this SP?

      ok. Ill try to keep this one short

      Last night stayed up until like 4 a.m. watching some sort of scary/thriller movie. I was having various odd dreams through out the night of random stuff and waking up constantly. The third time i woke up, i looked at my clock and it was 11 30. I looked back at my door and fell back to sleep. I almost immediately woke up yet my vision was very distorted. There was a black figure that walked into my room. I started panicking and screamed, but i could not move. The figure/man started to punch me in the face and vision became more distorted with each punch. I honestly thought i was being killed, although these punches did not really hurt me physically. It punched me about 6-7 time until my vision was completely black. I then woke up looking in the exact same spot as I was being punched. I was shaking and my heart was racing. After calming myself down i pulled out my laptop and started to look some stuff up and i eventually found this.

      So what do u guys think? I have had LDs before but i didn't think anything of it. In my LDs i wasn't able to control my dream just run around in them. I would like to have more LDs but now i am afraid that this SP will happen to me again if i attempt to have a LD. Just tell me what you guys think.

      Well welcome to Dream Views

      Sounds like SP to me. I mean if you were laying there and you couldn't move, and you were seeing things, sounds like SP. But don't worry, some of us intentionally induce it as we use it as a portal so to speak to the dream world.

      Check out the tutorials. If you scroll down, you'll find a tutorial on Sleep Paralysis. If you scroll down further, you'll find one on WILD (wake initiated lucid dream) which is where SP could be applied.

      I think horror movies have an negative effect on SP.

      Especially if they are watching something like the Fourth Kind, and they don't know what sleep paralysis is/how it works and actually believes they have been abducted by aliens. Being abducted by aliens is one of the most common hallucinations and sadly, people refuse to look at science

      altough I'm still a very newbie, I'll reply too
      sounds indeedlike sleep paralysis, I had it once too(before I knew anything about lucid dreans, and I never heard of sleep paralysis), but mine was without hallucinations(it was a little scary to not being able to move, but I realized that relaxing and starting to move slowly, fingers first, was the key to regaining control)
      but now I think about it, when I was younger I had a few times a nightmare in wich I was swimming and suddenly couldn't move anymore, I screamed but no noise came out of my mouth, and then I woke up in my bed

      I've never had full paralysis, but it seems like paralysis to me you could use those to have OBEs
