I was sleeping in my bedroom on my back, and the room was bright white. I could only see the blanket that was on top of me, which was a pink comforter with white outlines of flowers on it. There was a slight black outline of a figure standing at the end of my bed. He asked me a question, " Do you want your family to die?" My eyes were wide and I was struggling to breathe. But I couldn't get myself to move or say anything.
He gave me 7 seconds to answer, and then he would choose for me. I screamed at myself to get up and tell him, " No! I don't want them to die! Don't!" But I still could not move. The seconds ticked by, until he was at the door, turning the doorknob, at 6. Right before he opened the door, I leapt up in bed and shrieked, " No!" and it ended. What was even more startling, was that I could hear my siblings outside my door, running around, screaming with delight.
I was more scared than I had ever been in my whole life. I was so afraid. I think this was a sleep paralysis episode, but I've never had it confirmed, so I'm not sure. It's hard to describe how scared I was, terrified, panicked, petrified. I've never had another episode like this, but I've had dreams. During this episode, I had been having nightmares for months. I would see dead girls, dead family, or something would just be... Off. I was never sure what it was though. And none of my dreams were happy. There might not have been any danger on the surface, but it was there. The clouds were covering the skies, the sun was never out, or it would be raining. I've told my family, and they were disturbed, but, luckily, I've never had another one.
