So the other night I was walking to bed in the dark like I do every night. Really tired, walking down the hallway with my hand on the wall ready to turn into my room once I reached the door. I felt a low rumble or noise through the house. And then for a brief moment it felt like the darkness itself was an ominous presence that filled the house. Of course I knew right away I was imagining it and kept moving.
Very much like sleep paralysis stories about an dark entity. The sensation of an intruder. Demonic might be a good word for it. I had attributed the rumble to the wind or maybe distant thunder which made me relax because I like thunderstorms. But from what I read, that might have actually been a transition into REM while I was still awake. I dunno, when I stay up really late I always feel kinda buzzy. That "evil" feeling is pretty common. But other people have felt euphoria, out-of-body experiences, and orgasmic sensations. I've always wondered what an Out of body experiences would feel like.
And it only just occurred to me that it might have something to do with the 24hr fast I did.
