If you've ever dealt with sleep paralysis then you'll know that it can be a pretty damn terrifying experience! In case you're unaware of what this phenomenon is, it occurs when your body becomes temporarily paralyzed either while you're falling asleep or when you wake up. During this time, you're unable to move while still being fully aware of what's going on.
Many people hallucinate demonic-looking creatures for a short amount of time and will experience intense fear. Luckily, it's an extremely common condition and rarely ever indicates any sort of psychiatric problem, so aside from being temporarily petrified, you don't have to worry too much about it.
These people are meme-ing their own sleep paralysis demons to make them seem a little less scary, and a little more amusing!
Do you experience sleep paralysis? If so, what does your demon look like?
If you're not watching Buzzfeed Unsolved then you need to get on that ASAP. The wildly popular YouTube show follows co-hosts Ryan Bergara, a firm believer in the paranormal, and the hilariously skeptical Shane Madej as they investigate true crime and the supernatural.
The show has inspired several well-known meme formats, including "Hey There Demons, It's Me Ya Boy," which you've likely seen floating around the internet by now.
Many have asserted that 'Unsolved' is what's kept Buzzfeed afloat in recent years. We're not going to comment on that, but either way go check this show out because it's definitely one of the best things on YouTube right now!
