>>72849974I gave up on it because I would always encounter a sleep paralysis demon. The one consistent thing I found online when reading up on how to do it was you need to be as tired as possible, free from as many distractions as possible (auditory ones mainly,) get comfortable like you're going to sleep but mentally try to keep yourself awake as long as possible. In other words if your eyes aren't starting to close on their own you probably aren't tired enough to do it. Eventually sleep starts to creep in and you lose focus while still clinging to that last bit of consciousness and you take that with you to the other side.
The problem is that transition is when people typically hallucinate the shadowman.
