there is a very logical explanation for why people around the world report simular experiences with hallucinatory sleep paralysis.
One of the theory about dreams (most prominant in the REM sleep cycle) is that they are your mind's interpretation of random nerve stimuli... in other words, you see a redish sillhoutte while your eyes are closed because random stimuli are running from your optic nerve toyour brain and your mind interprets it as something familiar to you like a devil.
with this in mind, if you wake up paralyzed, a likely interpretation is that someone is holding you down (hence being straddled)
