He was in a sleep paralysis. Whenever you're in one, you'd hallucinate and imagine there are others around you :)

Just so you know. you don't wanna do this unless you've got balls of steel. Paralysis can cause panic, panic is fearful, and when your subconscious is exposed to fear, you start seeing things. I suffered sleep paralysis for a while and hated it, because it was never trippy or awesome. It just scares the shit out of you.

Sleep paralysis is caused by waking up suddenly and the paralysis is still there (its something the human body developed as a defense mechanism to stop humans moving during their sleep in case they were sleeping near high ledges or something) because the body still thinks the mind's alseep, and seeing as how you're still in this state it causes you to hallucinate because half of your bodies still asleep (like seeing a dream in real life, whatever happens is what your deep thoughts are.Which tends to be something horrifying due to the fact that first timers are panicking because they cant move) I hope to god I never have one because I never had one before. People claim to see black, skinny demons climbing over their legs towards their face. Fucking creepy man.

Holy shit I just fucking realized that I had this when I was a kid and I thought they were just bad dreams. I would wake up in my bed, not able to move, then stuff would start floating and making loud buzzing noises and someone (or something) would start slowly coming down the stairs, but I would "wake up" before I saw them. Scared the hell out of me.

Part of me wants it to happen, but the other part of me doesn't.
It sounds like a terrifying experience.

One time, an arm grew out of the wall and ripped the paint off like a mask. There was a skinless, bleeding, screaming face behind it.

Shadows move in threatening shapes, monsters and evil creatures sit on your chest, pinning you there (a subconscious manifestation of the paralysis), and there's just no telling what sort of horrible things will start torturing you. It only lasts for a few seconds, but it feels like forever.

A thing like the motherfucker in my picture showed up regularly.

you can enter it by lying still and not giving it to brain's checking whether you are ready to sleep(urges to scratch, move...). It should take about 10 minutes to fall into sleep paralysis, some take less, some more...

Then you can experience the dreaming while awake phenomenon.

He had sleep paralysis
It's a form of lucid dreaming where you believe your dream is really happening
