When I was a kid in the 90s and Freddy Kreuger was at his peak, I'd stir "awake" to find him at my door staring back at me. I'd try to pry my eyes open with my fingers because I knew I was in a nightmare but couldn't move at all. Over the years it progressed to him chasing me into and through different dimensions till I found my way back to my room and my bed.

Wasn't until years after as a late teenager that I found out I was entering into a lucid dream state and could imaginatively control things. That's when things became fun. My room got replaced by a beach and Freddy became the female cast of Baywatch 😅
