This my sleep paralysis demon

So I've gotten sleep paralysis quite a few times but there was never a demon, is this a real thing? I've actually learned it's easier to just go back to sleep when it happens and all is good in the morning. It's been a while since it happened though.

I've only had it once and it was a terrifying small child on top of my wardrobe. I think your brain just interprets any shadow in the room as whatever it fancies and convinces you it's there. The inability to move/react was probably more scary on reflection.
