I experience this but never saw it as a man in a hat. Interesting.

He’s seen in many other situations too. Benadryl is just super commonly known.
Someone I talked to online said they saw him multiple times in their life sober, and every time there’d be a death in the family or really bad thing would happen. They didn’t see him as evil, just as an omen/warning.

I done seent this guy when sleep-paralyzed, but in my case it was my brain misinterpreting a coat hanging on my bedroom door

I've been there. But my mind always interpreted it as a semi-humanoid/semi-formless demon. Definitely no hat.
