Indeed you must have. The short of it is this: A year ago Aurelia and I split up. I gave away almost everything I own and lost the apartment we had been sharing in Atlanta. Although Aurelia was planning to have full custody of Aurora, I spent the summer with Aurora on a friend's farm in Michigan. While I was there, I became friends with a wonderful woman named Nikki, who is a radio anchor on NPR's Orlando affiliate WMFE. Nikki and I met for dinner while I was in Orlando attending a Wizarding convention and we hit it off immediately.
Ah. I am sorry that things didn't work out better there. *shrugs* I'm so removed from things these days though that I can only send digital comfort and hope it comes across properly.
As for... whatever it was you saw. Hm. It sounds interesting.
And if Aurora is doing that sleeping but interacting thing, find a way to document it as it happens, if you can. Might come in handy later.
Dude. Just... dude. Your description of the feeling is, in my experience at least, spot on. Here's hoping you have a less eventful sleep tonight, or that you can make a fantastic career out of writing horror.
Thank You! I might have to start documenting my years of personal experience and the collected stories of others! The thing is with this event, we don't usually see a male in our room, we see a sad little girl with black hair.
Much creepier. Normally she just mopes around the bathroom door... Perhaps I shouldn't mention the time I woke up and she was in my face at the bedside, her hair wild, knotted and frazzled, her mouth agape.

I agree. And especially NOT this Uncle Michael or "Sirius" (which is an honorific for our dear friend Lance who plays Sirius Black in our cosplay group). Michael who recently passed, gave Aurora a stuffed serpent toy for Christmas 2011 and bestowed upon it the title of protector, and fighter of Nightmares. I feel that this was either a night terror as you say, or a visitation by some sort of shadow person.

Shadow people in my psychic/paranormal investigator experience are devoid of any energy. It is imposing and odd and scary and intriguing all at the same time. Yet every gut reaction to them has been to get away.

I've had one shadow person encounter that was positive or at least had beneficial results. It's a long story, and I'm not sure I'm ready for it to be public, but suffice to say, the person I saw was amicable and not at all threatening. Furthermore, he chased away the horrors that were pinning me to the bed. I learned later, after discovering a box of old photos, that he was most likely my Great Grandfather, whom I'd never met in life. I should add that this took place in broad daylight, in my Great Grandmother's former bedroom, a place that Grandpa Max would never have visited in corporeal existence.
Not yet, though we've discussed it. Both Nikki and I have backgrounds in cohabitation with strange beings -both corporeal and otherwise. So we've been giving them a little space. If they become a problem, then perhaps we will take measures to smoke them out.
