🎙️ Episode 6 – Sleep and the Supernatural: Nightmares, Sleep Paralysis, and GhostsB.U.M.P.S. in the Night: Ghosts, Ghouls, and Hauntings Podcast In this episode, we kick things off with What’s Haunting Us—from writing slumps and lack of motivation to the emotional rollercoaster that has been our lives lately. It’s been a month, y’all. 😅 Then we shift into this week’s eerie topic: The Paranormal Side of Sleep. We explore the strange space between dreams and reality—covering nightmares, sleep paralysis, and ghostly encounters during the night. We each bring our thoughts (and personal experiences!) to the table. Sarah shares a terrifying sleep paralysis moment. Brooke dives into the science behind REM sleep and how chemical imbalances might lead to seemingly paranormal experiences. And Mary? She’s just here to remind us that sometimes our “electrical meat suits” short-circuit. 😂 To wrap things up, we share Haunted News related to our topic: Sarah brings in a recent scientific article about sleep paralysis and its connection to the supernatural. Brooke talks about Sleeping Sickness, the condition that inspired Awakenings—and the mystery still surrounding it. 💌 Email us:beyondupstatemps@gmail.com 📲 Follow us on social:Instagram→ @beyondupstatemps | Facebook → Beyond Upstate Modern Paranormal Society |   🛍️ Shop our merch: https://bumps-pod-merch-shop.printify.me/ 🔊 Sound Credits Whoosh.wav by gbnelso -- https://freesound.org/s/684459/ -- License: Creative Commons 0 troll idle noises.wav by Darsycho -- https://freesound.org/s/442115/ -- License: Creative Commons 0 Office with Typing.wav by Walter_Odington -- https://freesound.org/s/32380/ -- License: Creative Commons 0 5 Knock -101.m4a by WakaProduction2018 -- https://freesound.org/s/437588/ -- License: Creative Commons 0 Spooky Ambiance #1 by KRISTIANKULTA – https://freesound.org/people/KRISTIANKULTA/sounds/326962/ – CC BY 4.0 dorm door opening.wav by pagancow -- https://freesound.org/s/15419/ -- License: Creative Commons 0 Whispers, 'Schizophrenic' or Ghost-like voices by belarathbone –  https://freesound.org/people/belarathbone/sounds/423869/ – CC0 Ringtone: Startac Alert fast.wav by knufds -- https://freesound.org/s/633161/ -- License: Creative Commons 0 You Got Mail - Sound Effect for Editing.mp3 by buckshawtyy -- https://freesound.org/s/612869/ -- License: Creative Commons 0 Track: MutationsMusic by fiftysounds.com Intro/Outro: Orange ButtonMusic by fiftysounds.com
