Paralysis

Dreamed before 2016/5/3 by Emily Y. Chan

Had sleep paralysis early one morning while trying to wake up, and "saw" this creature or woman looming over me. She had two spider legs (if more, I couldn't see) and was smiling with no face. Lasted about 2 minutes and it was terrifying at the time. It was amazing.

'Paralysis', a spider-woman; dream sketch by Emily Y. Chan.

Definitely felt like something I had to draw right when I woke up to remember the details. I don't feel like the "face" I drew here is really accurate though. It was kind of hard to make out or explain. Also, unlike this image, the room felt really bright at the time like there was a floodlight on the ceiling. (But I felt the darkness worked better for this particular image).
