Sleep event
Interesting little converted nightmare. Producing the .44 out of thin air seems sort of like lucid dreaming techniques bleeding over into my non-lucid dreams, which is interesting. Color legend: Non-dream Dream Lucid Lucid #27: Paranoia I am in a false awakening where I am a kid living in my old room at my parents' house. I sense some terrifying presence in my room so I jump out of bed, crouching down in fear. I reach under the bed and pull out a long-barreled, <PERSON> .44 Magnum and hold it in front of me, searching wildly for whatever is after me. I suddenly have no idea what I am doing holding this gun and I am afraid that I will wind up shooting myself or my parents with it. I duck into the bathroom and close the door behind me, trying to figure out what to do. I try the light switch but it does not work. Something reaches out in the darkness and starts wrestling with me for the gun. My fear combined with the craziness of the scene is enough to make me lucid. I gently pull the .44 back toward me, no longer believing that there is any lurking presence trying to pull it away from me. I try the light switch again but it does not do anything. I am trying to think of some way out of here when the scene suddenly shifts to a cluttered basement. The basement is a roughly ten-foot cube and walls are gray concrete. There are no doors or windows but benches, tables, tools, and other assorted pieces of junk litter the room. Seeing no way out, I float up and try to phase through the ceiling but the concrete stops me cold. I shut my eyes and imagine the Great Pyramid, but nothing has changed when I open them again. Next, I try some <PERSON>-style spinning but I move with an odd slowness when I spin and the scene will not change. Just then I notice a tiny surveillance camera attached to the ceiling and I feel like the presence that I sensed earlier is watching me through the camera. I float to the camera, determined to phase through it and see who (or what) is watching me. I push myself through the lens but immediately find myself awake in bed.
I do not know why I am lucid, or how long I have been lucid, but I am riding in a 70s mustang with the top down with two other people. Some lady in her car talks crap about me, and I jumped …
