Had a blended dream a long ass time ago and I'm curious to know what others make of it.
Here's the IRL context you'd need to understand
>Was like 13/14
>Bed was positioned in such a way that the string holes from the blinds would let the light from the street lamp from the house across the street in at any position I slept it
>This meant if the light flickered, someone was walking down the sidewalk
Which in itself was something that alerted me at first, but I grew used to it well before this dream.
>Slept in perpendicular bunkbed on the bottom with my step-brother on top and it was heavy ass wood so just moving the bed wasn't an option
And so the dream goes
>Having regular innocuous dream
>Dream took a turn as I found myself in my own front yard
>I felt taller but could have been wonky dream perception
>The dream instantly became more vivid
>I could see the night dew on the grass
>Everything stayed the same as it was in real life with (relatively) no dream distortion
>As I walked slowly, my focus was in several places at once
>The first looking around in my yard
>The second fixated from the outside of my window towards the street lamp of the people living across the street
>The third from my own, looking from where I was sleeping
>I began to move around the house and saw something shadowy from the second perspective, only really being able to see its darkened chest
>I approached my own window, not of my own volition
>The street lamp's light constantly flickered as I moved closer
>When the light stopped shining altogether, everything went DEAD silent
>Everything shifted to only my own perspective as I saw a shadow cast on the blinds
>Had only a second to take it in before an ear-piercing screech sounded
>Woke up immediately
>Could feel myself screaming, but couldn't hear myself
>Couldn't hear anything besides the echoes of the screech.
1/1.5 it seems
gpt
>Look to the window and the shadow is still there, albeit hard to see
>The light is still not shining through the blinds
>I had my ears covered because they fucking HURT
>Not sure how I knew but I could tell it was fucking looking at me
>I stared intensely back at the window and the shadow begins to fade
>The lamp light shines through the window again
>Curse rather loudly at the pain
>This woke my step-brother up who apparently hadn't heard me screaming nor whatever it was that I heard
>Take deep breaths trying to calm down
>Covered myself in blankets while trying to go back to sleep
>The pain in my ears was gone the next morning
And that was that. Like I said, I'm mostly curious as to what others think about it. It sounds a little like sleep paralysis, but everything surrounding it and me being able to move makes me doubt that.
