This used to happen to me all the time when I lived in my old apartment but in my current house, I never see them. Is there a certain place that you always see them.
On a somewhat related sidenote, I used to seemingly wake in the middle of the night completely paralyzed but with my eyes open. I would see a large floating black presence hovering over me, slowly coming closer. Eventually I would fall back into normal sleep and have horrible nightmares for the rest of the night. This used to happen to me all the time but it's been a while since I've experienced it.
What you describe is a form of narcalepsy. My friend Anthony has it and until he was about 23 he thought he was haunted. His visitors change thru time but he always has the paralysis. It has something to do with the dreaming part of your mind being active but your body is in shut down mode so you dont move around while you sleep (sleepwalking is kind of the reverse of this) there is often a feeling of not being able to breath. do a google search on the night hag. thats what the phenomena is called.. people over the years have had all kinds of visions with it. usually some kind of hag but there have also been, demons, witches, alien abductions and all kinds of ghosts and shadows. Its really fucked up and I got really fascinated by it when he first told me . thats how I know
Even though I know the science behind it, those stories scare THE LIVING SHIT out of me. The name "Night Hag" doesn't make it any easier.
Now that reminds me of the "Bell Witch". I'm never getting to sleep.

what about when you are asleep and you feel someone in the room and you wake up and no one is there, so you roll over and go back to sleep, then about 10 minutes later you get slapped but your the only one in the room?
If this ever happens I'm checking myself in for observation.
that only happened in the house i lived in in new jersey, between me telling my friends that and the location of the house it kept alot of people from visiting after sundown. cuase you see my house was built way back when and still had a dirt floor basement, plus the fact you could see at least 3 graveyards with more then 9 total within a ten minute walk from my front door. sure they were small in size but it still freaked people out. like one time i went on vacation and let a friend stay there cuase he was fighting with his wife he only stayed one night cuase he got the wake up slap and heard something run down the stairs. he quickly made up with his wife and just came over to check my mail and stuff after that
and how long did you stay after all this happened?

Jesus. When I saw the topic Shadow People I felt like I swallowed my heart.
I thought "the topic isn't really going to be about seeing shadow people - its going to be a band or a movie or something" but then it was. I see little things scurrying like spiders or rats (not my pet rats - blurrry run across the room shadow rats) all the time then sometimes bigger ones like cats and then when I'm stressed or haven't slept I see the shadow people. I met a woman who was schizophrenic who saw them too so I got pretty worried. I guess I'm glad its commonish?
Well, I see em too, but on the other hand i have an uncle who has schzophrenia and I hear it's genetic.

i lived there for a year and probably would have stayed there for longer if i could afford the rent, my landlord there wasnt a piece of shit, or the fact that i got sent to england. but it happened off and on the entire year i lived there. but only when i slept upstairs never when i just got drunk and passed out on the couch. just the upstairs part of the house
