I've been spooked plenty of times in a dream state and have gotten it under control pretty quick. This time was no different.

I willed whatever I thought it was away and everything was fine. It was gone so I smiled at myself at another job well done and was just gonna wait until I could move.

But then... My body started vibrating suddenly. Not shaking but vibrating kind of like a buzz. That thing was touching me now or something I don't know what the fuck but it was happening. I just knew something was going on that I couldn't figure, I wasn't dreaming but I was able to stay out of a fearful mindset, which seems to be the key to ending these scenarios.

There was a time before that, both instances were recent enough, where again in sleep paralysis, I could feel something with what felt like really long fingers sliding down the sides of my head and down my neck. I don't quite remember how long it went on for but again, the key seems to be to not feel fear and just know whatever is going on, is immaterial. Weird stuff man.

I heard the same thing once walking from my car to my front door, but it hit me in the face with a gust of wind. I looked in the direction of the voice, and saw a curtain inside the house move like someone was trying to hide. Nobody was home at the time and I was alone. Later, my brother-in-law called and said he was coming over (unrelated—I was going to tell him what happened to me when he came over). When he finally arrived, he was late. When I asked him what took so long to get here, he said he had been passed out on the driveway (where I heard the voice), and he had just come to. He said when he put his hand on the back gate, he saw a flash of light and then just passed out.

As far as sleep paralysis goes, I never hear voices, but I have found that that state is directly adjacent to a lucid dream. Kind of a lucid nightmare?
