The smiling man deceived me!

So, a couple of months ago I had my first ever experience with sleep paralysis. The man I saw was wearing all white, he was standing beside my bed, slightly lent over, head slightly tilted, with a grin from cheek to cheek. Because it was my first experience, I was terrified. He came to me again a few times and I started to become more comfortable with his presence as he wasn't that scary or mean. (I had read other experiences and decided this guy was an angel compared to some of the stuff). One night he came to me, same thing only this time a gold cage started to come down over me, this made me panic, luckily I woke up. The very last time I had this 'dream', the same thing happened again, down came the golden cage, trapping me in, this time I looked at the man and his smile started cracking, all up his cheeks, like ripping in to his face? It was horrible!! I haven't had the dream again (touch wood)... Wtf though. Anybody had anything similar? Please tell!

Well if that's the case, I hope I can sort it out in my waking life because I do not want him to come back again haha. Give me the shivers.

hypnogognic hallucinations are common with sleep paralysis. what a freaky image tho...
