I've had a few episodes a few years ago while i was heavily depressed and my sleep pattern was messed up. i didn't see much, just shadows in the corner of my eyes, but i knew something evil was in the room and i heard deep, demonic voices from behind. the first few times i was in a full blown panic, but i read about sleep paralysis before, so i at least connected the dots quickly... wiggling my pinky finger was my mode of escape.
fixing my sleep pattern with sleep meds (by force) made it go away
