I have this every now and then except i kinda just half-wake up and everything feels profoundly wrong in some ineffable way, like the dream world merges with the real world and there's a sense that something bad is going to happen at any moment.

This is consistent with my experience. I didn't have a paralysis demon, but I was convinced my ceiling fan was plotting to kill me. Not that it was going to fall and hurt but that it was scheming to have me assassinated and would take matters into its own hands if necessary.

My sleep paralysis demon was a black cat, and it stepped on my balls, causing astonishingly realistic pain

This one is strangely realistic.
