General Mysteries

Bright light in the night

This story was submitted to the site by Sam from Marietta, Georgia.
I had wanted to get this story off my chest for a while, however did not know anyone in my area who would take this literally. I am a logical thinker and always look at both sides of the spectrum when assessing life's mysteries. I am a firm believer in alien life and their possible influence or interactions with humans, but in this case I truly do not know what to classify this experience under. I stay up late, I'm a night time person, it's when I'm more alert and active.

So on the night in question I was laying in bed watching a show. I was beginning to doze off. Nothing abnormal. All I can recall is hearing a loud low frequency humming and the brightest light, all white, and suddenly I came to, sat up straight, gasping. I saw that the show I had been watching hadn't moved forward but was still where I remember watching it while awake. I felt odd, dazed and scared. It wasn't a dream, I love dreaming and I am a very vivid dreamer and know the difference. It's been plaguing my mind for weeks. My spouse said that it's not what I think it is. So I am reaching out here.[!gad]I had wanted to get this story off my chest for a while, however did not know anyone in my area who would take this literally.
