The Nightmare is a 2015 documentary that discusses the causes of sleep paralysis as seen through extensive interviews with participants, and the experiences are re-enacted by professional actors. In synopsis, it proposes that such cultural memes as alien abduction, the near death experience and shadow people can, in many cases, be attributed to sleep paralysis. The "real-life" horror film debuted at the Sundance Film Festival on January 26, 2015 and premiered in theatres on June 5, 2015.[1]

Devil in The Room (2013) is an experimental documentary directed by Carla MacKinnon, which concisely examines and narrates the experiences of sleep paralysis that one may endure. This short film has been acknowledged as "Best Documentary" at CERN's Cineglobe International Film Festival in Geneva.[2]
