The phenomenon you're describing is known as sleep paralysis. It occurs when a person is temporarily unable to move or speak while falling asleep or waking up, often accompanied by vivid hallucinations or a feeling of pressure. Sleep paralysis happens during the transition between sleep stages, particularly between REM sleep and wakefulness, when the body remains in a state of temporary paralysis to prevent acting out dreams.
