A Trip to Remember
It was supposed to be a peaceful getaway. My boyfriend’s parents, along with a friend, had planned a short trip to Abha, a beautiful hill station in Saudi Arabia. Their journey was smooth, filled with laughter and breathtaking views. By evening, they arrived at their hotel, checked in, and freshened up before heading out for dinner.
There was something off about the place—an unexplainable heaviness in the air—but they brushed it aside. After all, it was just a hotel, and they were here to enjoy.
A Night of Terror
After dinner, they returned to their room, exhausted from the day’s journey. As the night deepened, silence filled the space, and they drifted into sleep.
A few hours later, my boyfriend’s mother suddenly woke up, gasping for air. It felt as if someone was sitting on her chest, pressing her down. Panic surged through her body—she couldn’t move, couldn’t breathe. She forced herself to shake her husband awake.
“Something is wrong. I feel like someone is sitting on me… Can we switch places?” she whispered urgently.
Trying to comfort her, he moved to her side of the bed while she took his. For a while, everything seemed normal. But soon, he too felt it—a crushing weight on his body, as if something unseen was holding him down. His heart pounded. There was something in that room.
Fear settled in as they lay there, frozen, unsure of what to do. Should they leave? Should they ignore it? Just as they were contemplating, a sudden knock echoed through the room.
It was 1 AM.
The couple exchanged horrified glances. Who could it be at this hour? Slowly, they made their way to the door and hesitantly opened it.
Standing outside was their friend, pale-faced and trembling.
“Please, let’s leave this place. I can’t stay here anymore,” he pleaded.
Confused, they asked what had happened. His voice shook as he spoke:
“While I was sleeping, I felt someone sitting on my chest—I couldn’t breathe! It was like something was holding me down!”
The three of them stared at each other, realizing that they had all experienced the exact same thing. That was it. They couldn’t stay a moment longer. Grabbing their belongings, they hurried out of the hotel and left immediately, never looking back.
To this day, my boyfriend’s parents believe they encountered something paranormal that night in Abha. What it was, they never found out—but they never returned to that hotel again.
