Paul Waking Paralysis / Presence Episode
about one month before meeting MackPaul adult residence, United States, United States
Paul consciously recalled awakening after dream sleep to a loud bang, feeling a presence inches from his face while unable to move, speak or open his eyes, and then regaining movement and seeing nothing. The phenomenology is compatible with a sleep-paralysis-like episode and does not include a visual observation of a being.
Claims are displayed with the source wording, locator, relationship and verification state. Competing claims remain separate rather than being averaged into a single answer.
“Paul consciously recalled awakening after dream sleep, hearing a loud bang, sensing a nearby presence and being unable to move, speak or open his eyes until the episode passed.”
“Because the episode occurred on awakening with temporary paralysis and no visual entity after movement returned, a sleep-paralysis-like explanation remains plausible.”
“Before seeing Mack, Paul underwent relaxation sessions intended to explore possible childhood sexual abuse; no such abuse emerged, while unusual-being and craft narratives did.”
