As I mentioned on this thread, I experienced a slight case of sleep paralysis myself, and saw an alien very similar to the one described by the Hills. I am sure that such images are very much influenced by popular culture, particularly films and TV;

One of the first “grays” was shown in “Earth vs the Flying Saucers” in 1956:

Kids can see these films as young children, 2, 3, or 4 years old, and they won’t understand them, but they’ll remember some of the images from the films all their lives. But later they will forget where they learned of those image. Some people will think they might have dreamed them. Others will think they are some kind of mystical supernatural images placed in their minds. Others will fear the mental images, especially if they never see the films again and never recall where the images and concepts originated.
