38. The Night Hag: Sleep Paralysis in the Age of Insomnia

Scott Carney Investigates

Have you ever woken up while you were dreaming, only to find that you couldn't move a muscle? Or, perhaps even more terrifying: have you woken up and felt a deep weight on your chest and sensed that an evil creature was pushing down on your chest? That, my friend, is the night hag--another name for sleep paralysis. I recently had a chance to chat with Kate Kavanaugh @katekavanaughmbs --a world famous butcher and host of the Mind, Body, Soil Podcast about the strange things that happen when we close our eyes at night. I've known Kate from a few interviews that we've done together over the years, and this is a re-broadcast of her show on my channel. So when you're done checking it out, go on over and subscribe to her amazing feed and find her other amazing conversations.
