I think it has to be some subconscious thing. I have also seen a hat man in sleep paralysis but i doubt it is something supernatural. Like i have a trick to get out of sleep paralysis, i did it and obviously my door wasn't even open like I saw. Also its interesting that so many diverse cultures have this myth like i am from south east asia and even i have this picture in my head.
What's your trick for getting out of sleep paralysis? It doesn't happen to me as often as it used to, and fortunately I've never seen anything during those episodes (only heard things like people talking or music playing), but it'd be good to keep a trick in my back pocket for next time. It's certainly not a comfortable feeling.
So even when your body is paralyzed, you can still move your toes and fingers, keep doing that and slowly you will be able to move your hand/foot. So you just keep moving basically until you "get up"
