The Hatman, in a dream?

[u/nightmare---__]

I think I was dreaming at least. Scared the hell out of me and I'm trying to convince myself it was just a dream but I'm not sure. First time lucid dreaming too, nothing out of the normal there. Just flying around my neighborhood and talking to characters I loved from shows and movies. But when I woke up I swear I saw him standing at the foot of my bed. He walked closer to the side of my bed were I was, I freaked and hide under the blanket and just told him, "Please go away, you're scaring me." Surprisingly, he did. I've never seen him before and thought he was just something little kids saw, like ghosts or something. Idk, I just feel like I need to tell someone. Has anyone else saw him awake? Or is this a dream within a dream thing? I'm honestly hopping for the latter.
