Thread: Bizarre "Tin Can" Type Sound In Lucid Dreams!!!

I woke up this morning around 5am, and laid there for maybe 2 hours trying to sleep. I finally decided to take a little bit of melatonin, which usually gives me the extra boost I need to get to sleep. However, I try to avoid doing that as much as possible, because usually I end up with dreams that seem "heavy".

Anyway, when I went to sleep I started to have lucid dreams. I remember that I was in my home, near the bathroom sink. I turned the faucet on and it sounded really weird, like there was some kind of audio processing special effect on it.

Then, to test things out, I said aloud in my dream something to the effect of "Whoa, this is messed up! What's going on?". My voice sounded like it was coming out of a tin can! It just sounded so odd. I'm standing there in my dream, fully lucid, trying to figure out why in the world I would be hearing the sound this way. I kept doing various things to make noise so I could listen and see if the sound changed, but the effect kept going. It was boggling my mind trying to figure out what would cause that.

Anyways, after that I had more typical lucid dreams, like flying, making my fingers stretch out, and asking DC's questions which are impossible to answer. I also had that recurring one where I can't get out of bed!

Does anyone else know about this type of tin can sound in lucid dreams? To me it was beyond bizarre.

Hmm. This has never happened to me.

Alot of weird things happen to different people during lucids/normal dreams. I know some who have often had their blanket stick to them after a successful WILD. Some have trouble speaking at all, while others voices are much louder than normal. This is just one of those weird recurring dream effects. It can be fixed of course. It may sound wierd, but try this: I suggest getting the invisible can to appear. Just imagine the can over your mouth to make it appear. Once it appears over your mouth, simply remove it and you should be able to talk normal. Good Luck to you!

Thanks. This was actually the only time that ever happened, so I don't think it will recur. Nice suggestion for if it does though.
