"Once I had a nightmare about that room. I was walking down a long hall and saw the curtains on a doorway at the end. Even though I was dreaming, I knew exactly where I was, and I felt an icy chill run through me. I wanted to run away, but something was pushing me toward the curtains, and I started to scream for John. 'Help me . . . help me . . . please...' Then was when I woke up screaming. Right there and then I should have known the dream was an omen of death" (142-143).

Answer 1

“Once I had a nightmare about that room. ‘Then was when I woke up screaming’”-nightmares are often used to convey fear, so fear is one.
“Even though I was dreaming I knew exactly where I was. ‘I wanted to run away, but something was pushing me towards the curtains, and I started screaming for John’”- since it is a dream, moreover a in which they are unable to control themselves, dread and panic must’ve ensued upon them (them being the person experiencing these emotions.)

Short answer: they must’ve felt dread, panic and fear
