I've discovered that for myself, the best way to stop my Sleep Paralysis from becoming freaky is to keep my eyes closed, (mostly because most of my SP episodes come during WILD).

Everytime I open my eyes, something really screwed up happens.

This morning for example, I led myself comfortable into sleep paralysis and you know I was actually enjoying it for a while because I discovered that I could consciously control my auditory hallucinations so I was essentially making some sweet music with my thoughts (TRY IT, ITS REALLY COOL), but then I opened my eyes to see if I could see anything, and immediately, two giant black three fingered claws rose from my bed and started pulling me by my waist into my bed.

Screw that.

Any thoughts?
