Dream About Dark Figure And Paralysis

I was laying in bed. It was a sleep paralysis type of situation. I thought I was still awake. This huge dark figure with sharp teeth, looks like his mouth is watering. I see him hovering over the bed staring at me like he was ready to feast. I’m not sure why I feel it was a male figure, it was practically just a cloud. I began to yell the name of my ex in my dream & that brought me out of the paralysis. I heard myself yell out. I had just began dating my ex at this time. This dream haunts me.
