I suppose I used the term "lucid" a bit loosely. I was not aware I was dreaming. It was just so real that I had a hard time acknowledging that it was a dream when I woke up. I've had several more of these experiences...they often contain the intense terror of sleep paralysis, but I can move. Everything is extremely vivid and feels "more real than real", usually taking place in my own house. In one I was actually thrown off of the bed and onto the floor, only to wake up back in bed. As far as I can tell, if there is anything supernatural about these experiences it is little more than a crude attempt to inspire fear.
