I get the usual visual hallucinations, and the feelings of being choked, but what I found the worst about sleep paralysis when I was first getting them was the auditory hallucinations. It was like someone put headphones in your ears, set it to max volume and blasted blood curdling screeches. Was not a fun experience.
anyways, no I'm not a masochist I don't enjoy being choked, but I found I could use sleep paralysis as an easy gateway into lucid dreaming (quite the topic let me tell you). Because once you find out that you're half dreaming you actually have "godlike" powers in this state since you're dreaming but fully conscious so you can summon whatever you want, whoever you want, and yes I've done that too 
.
but yeah, for me, getting sleep paralysis means I can also get a get a kick ass dream which far outweighs the negatives.
I never had the audio effects, unfortunately. I always wondered what it was like. But I've heard it's like white noise. Just, not being able to move, and some spooky hallucinations are all I've experienced. It gets annoying after awhile though.
I do recall one time I had it that sticks out to the rest. I wasn't hallucinating, but I remember hearing a humming sound, but nothing like most people hear (screeching for you, and white noise most others recall), and it felt like my body was vibrating violently. This was during a time where we had no power because of a storm, and it was in the middle of the summer, so it was hot in our house. Was listening to music on my phone with ear buds, and that happened. I get nervous to listen to music with headphones on because of that time.
As I stated in my first post, it usually happens when I wake up. But, this was when I was falling asleep. And it's the only time that's happened at this time that I remember.
