I've been trying to get a hold on lucid dreaming, specifically WILD, for a while now after about a 2 years off and I thought that it was all coming together. The thing is that recently whenever I enter a dream it starts exactly where I left off in the waking world. I'm in my bedroom in bed. The room is pitch dark and when I get up to turn on the lights they won't.
The thing that's getting to me is that every time there is something in the house with me and whatever it is isn't friendly. The first few times I saw a figure in the shadows as I left the house, but recently it's gotten more aggressive. The forth to last it chased me out of house. I finally saw it and it seemed to be really enjoying it. The third to last I got out to the kitchen and hid while it looked around like it was purposely hunting me. The second to last I got outside and tried calling it out into the light where I'd be less freaked out and in more control. When it didn't come I tried summoning it but nothing happened so I started belting out threats and it finally showed. It was pissed, it remarked the audacity of me summoning something like him and came straight at me. I wanted to confront it but my flee instinct kicked in and I woke myself up. Then this afternoon I didn't even have time to get out of my bed. I didn't even know I was asleep. I saw a shadow behind me and figured my dad was just coming to get me up but when I turned around it jumped on my chest and raised a knife. Not knowing I was asleep I was of course terrified. I realized I was asleep when I saw it. The shock woke me up. I've tried controlling where I end up when I start the dream and I just end up waking myself up. I tried spinning once and it worked but now it has stopped.
I know I shouldn't be afraid but it's not so easy when you're in a dark house, unable to turn on any lights and you know that something is just watching you. I thought it was my fear creating it, like because I was expecting something bad, but today this thing showed up even when I wasn't expecting it. Has anyone had similar experiences and how the heck did you get rid of it.
I mean could this be some weird more complex form of sleep paralysis that people usually have, because in these dreams I'm totally mobile?
