I have experienced the Old Hag phenomenon many times.
Every time it completely freaks me out.
I don't get snuggles... I get the FEAR. I can't move but am certain that someone is in the room. I try and try to move but to no avail.
Finally with great effort I snap out of it and the spell is broken.
When I first came across the Old Hag stories I was greatly relieved to find it was a condition of sleep... I was worried I'd have to adjust my world view to incorporate life after death (ie ghosts).
