263: The Visitors In Sleep Paralysis (Members Trailer)
On Episode 263: The Visitors in Sleep Paralysis, we have a double interview episode! First, we have Rick joining us to share his UFO encounter in Mobile, Alabama. Following his story, we bring on Savannah who details her dramatic experiences in sleep paralysis. During her first experience with sleep paralysis, Savannah recalls a guttural voice whispering in her ear, “I’m going to take care of you.” From that point on, sleep paralysis has been very consistent in her life - she has seen figures while paralyzed and even seems to have had an “Inception”-like paralysis experience.
