Waking Nightmare?

Date: 7/25/2017

So I don't really remember my dreams for this night, I just remember I was building a house and then something fell in my room (in real life, I still don't know what it was) and in the dream Licorice, my dog, smacked something out of my hand with her paw on accident when trying to get it from me, and then I woke up at 2:30 and I was absolutely terrified that Licorice was going to attack me suddenly without any reason and I couldn't go back to sleep because I was so scared she would do that. I started hyperventillating and then I looked over to see that my closet was partially open and there was something in it I was so sure so I turned around and faced the wall and pulled the covers up over my head and held really still because i was just irrantionally in fear of it, and I was so sure that the thing in my closet was looming over me and I could feel it touching me like on my leg and brushing hair back from my face and on my arm and then my covers slid off of my bed like the thing had moved them off and i was super freaked out and done with it, so I really quickly switched on my lamp and then I got up and went to the bathroom and then heard Licorice out in the living room so I went to pet her and tried to tell myself that she wasn't going to bite me but I was terrified she was going to I was like shaking while I was petting her (of course she didn't because she's the nicest dog ever and she would never bite anyone unless they were hurting her or something) and then I went back to my bedroom and tried to go to sleep with the lamp on, and I finally managed it, but before I did, I swore I could hear someone talking to me through my white noise app on my phone and every time I would turn it off, it would go away. So I finally went back to sleep at like 4 in the morning but I don't remember my dreams after that. It was a really weird experience, like I don't know if it was a waking nightmare or what but it was really weird.
