8. Gremlin on The Ceiling
This story of sleep paralysis comes from a Reddit user who describes her waking dream and the presence of a ‘gremlin’ type creature. The creature is always the same, and her dream always ends the same way: with her waking up amidst sweat-soaked sheets screaming.
More often than not, this creature is perched on her chest with his pointy features in her face. He is whispering an incomprehensible language as he leers over her and she is frozen and powerless. Other times he is latched onto the ceiling, whispering and grinning, while all she can do is stare. Once, he was even perched on her headboard and she awoke to the feeling of his tongue grazing her face.
