PARABNORMAL NEWS — Are you seeing ghosts? Or are you just tired? There could be something to the belief that paranormal happenings are more common at night.<\/p>\n

A study<\/a> of 8,800 people at the Goldsmiths University of London<\/a> looked at how sleep deprivation breeds perceptions of ghosts, demons and aliens; finding that such beliefs are more common among insomniacs and those who generally get fewer hours of sleep.<\/p>\n

They say that around two-thirds of those who experience sleep paralysis or loud sounds in their head were convinced that aliens walk among us.<\/p>\n

Nearly 60 % with sleep paralysis said they thought near-death experiences prove that the soul lives on after death.<\/p>\n

The teams say their findings could help diagnose sleep disorders in some believers of the strange.<\/p>\n

Several previous studies have linked such beliefs to sleep disorders with some reportedly summoning nefarious spirits called jinn or an evil cat-like witch, known as Pandafeche.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
