So Anyway, There’s a Demon in My Bedroom: Sleep Paralysis & Nightmares
Krissy cracks open a beer and dives headfirst into the absolutely unhinged world of sleep paralysis and nightmares, because apparently peacefully sleeping through the night was just asking too fucking much. We’re talking about what happens when your brain wakes up but your body doesn’t, the horrifying shit people swear they see standing in their bedrooms, shadow people, things sitting on your chest, voices, touching, full-blown nightmare fuel, and the very scientific explanation for why your own brain might be responsible for all of it. Except… then we get to the part where people across completely different cultures have been describing eerily similar nighttime visitors for centuries. Cool cool cool. So naturally, we have questions. Why does sleep paralysis feel SO real? Why do so many people see a figure in the room? Why are there entire legends built around creatures that attack people in their sleep? And at what point are we allowed to stop blaming REM sleep and ask why humanity apparently has a shared fucking sleep demon? From the science of nightmares to the Pisadeira, shadow figures, creepy folklore, and the deeply disrespectful things our brains do when we’re just trying to get eight hours, this episode is one giant WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING WHILE WE SLEEP?! Sleep tight, ghosties. #BrewsWithBoos #SleepParalysis #Nightmares #ShadowPeople #ParanormalPodcast #SleepDemon #CreepyPodcast #Paranormal #NightTerrors #WTF
