Screaming or howling

Please excuse the poor capitalization. This is the second day trying the WBTB method, the first being the 19th. No lucid dream. Unfortunately, most of the dreams I remember had to do with just staring at piano keys I believe. However, the reason i do not remember much is because I almost had an OBE/WILD! Twice! Maybe it had something to do with the wake back to bed method? Although I think I just got lucky and started to wake up at the right time. the most i remember of my dreams is only a few leading up to the first time. I remember watching TV with dad, but for some reason it was at our house. he was eating grapefruit, and i was on the floor. i forget what i was doing on the floor, but the show we were watching was like a collaboration between family guy and american dad. i was like "i do not remember them being the same show." then, i remember listening to Other Lives (good band, I recommend) in my room. I had headphones on, an i was trying to crawl under the rockband drumkit. my logic was that they would not have made the songs in such a way so that you could not fit. then, i remember seeing a cartoon black girl, who was very short, wore a yellow dress, and had big eyes, and an afro. she said something. I do not remember what is was, but the point is that is was supposed to be evil or something. or maybe she screamed. i do not remember. but then, i told <PERSON> and dad about it, and dad said that i should show him the clip, so we can do something about it. i said ok, and i was up in my room looking for it. apparently, the ghost did not want me to do this, and came after me. it was DE that it was holding me down on the bed, so the dream turned into a nightmare, with my sleep paralysis making it seem more real. i started to wake up, and i could not move, or yell for help. i was still half asleep so i still thought the ghost was after me. after i realised i was waking up, i felt them. the vibrations of anyone who has ever experienced an OBE/WILD. i did not understand it at first, but as soon as i was actually awake, i immediately understood, and was disappointed that i did not try anything. the vibrations felt like when your hand JUST falls asleep. its not the pins and needles kind, it the rumbly, tingly, vibration kind. or maybe it feels like when you hit your funny bone, but all over your body, and without the pain. the second time this started to happen, i was like "cool at least i get a second chance." i tried to will myself out of my body (for an OBE), but nothing worked. maybe i need to actually try to physically move? ill try that next time (although I should be focusing on lucid dreaming lol), with my hand under my leg, so that if i can raise my hand, i know it went through my leg. i had more dreams after i went back to sleep finally, but I do not remember them because i could not take my mind off the almost WILD/OBE. I remembered later in the day that my final dream was about this weird hotel/learning camp? <PERSON> was there, as were a bunch of other celebrities, but they could have just been DE celebrities. One part of the dream involved a flooded hallway i think, with a car pulling out of a driveway in the rain? I do not know, but i do remember that it was a pretty cool dream.
