    I had a dream that my family attacked me. My brothers tried to poison me and my mother tried to push me out the window. I ranaway from home and took shelter with my friends. They turned agenst me and tried to kill mw. My bff tried to stop them but he ended up getting killed in the process. I ran again, I couldn’t stop. A friendly family invited me in because it started to rain. They told me to stay with them since I’m only 12. They took me to a school that my “little neither went to”. Then he want to kill me so I’m running around the school scared as hell. I run into my parents and they try to kill me. I look myself I’m a class that is still in session. I tell the teacher wants been going on. He tells me not to leave the class. Then he gets the same look that the others had in their eyes, the whole class does. They torture me in unspeakable ways and i die.All of them have a smile.

  • dogncatluver21:

    In my dream, i was running around a very detailed place, full of buildings and plants and people and stuff. It was a complicated setting. I was running from someone but i didnt know who. I stopped and crouched down to hide behind the wall, and then a shadow came over me. They dropped a knife down onto me to try and kill me. I moved so it missed. Then they tried dropping a bag of rocks. It hit me right on the skull, but it didn´t hurt. I looked up to see who was trying to kill me, because somehow I knew that they were trying to (I could see myself through their eyes at the same time that i was me), and I saw my dad. He was trying to kill me.
    What the hell does this mean?

  • Corinne:

    Last night I had this dream about one of my friends who was fighting with her mom about going into this lake. Well, she couldn’t swim, so when she took another step, she fell of the sandbar. My other friend saved her and yeah. Then there was this man. He started killing off a lot of my friends. I was praying the whole time. When he got around to me, I tried to stall then my little brother was holding this spear. When the guy started to murder me, the knife went right through me, although there were painful scars. I noticed later that my hands, feet and head were bleeding. I woke up.

    Once I had a dream that I was in a car with some guy I didn’t know. He was drinking and I told him if he kept it up he was going to die. All of a sudden there is a tapping from the back of the car. I turn to look and start screaming because it’s the guy from scream and he has a bowie knife. He goes up to the drivers seat and pulls the boy out of the car while he screams kill her kill her! I turn into the boy as scream guy says coward and stabs me in the stomach. The last thing I remember is thinking that it didn’t hurt like I thought it would.

  • Kirsten:

    I had this dream that i lived in a beautifull house. I dont know why these details were so important but i had a olympic swimming pool and another pool with a jacuzzi. My mom was either going out with or married to this man in my dream? But the man tied her up in the closet then had a butcher knife and was slowly chanting the same thing.. waiting to get ahold of me. I dont know what this has to do with this either, but inside this house it was pitch black and outsie was a beautifull day. My friend emely was asking me to go swwimming with her so i said hold on im going to change. Its like i forgot what was waiting for me inside. So finally i come back outside and ask her to come inside with me and some other friends and TRY to stop this guy. So we unleashed our dogs and he just shrugged his shoulders. Afetr that i started dreaming about a completely different subject.
    WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?

  • Joveria "JoJo":

    Either I’m Crazy or I’m Crazy but this is what happened in MY DREAM.
    Well it started with my Friend Having a Conversation with My French Teacher,Mr Codron,I was At A Far Distance Watching with NO Emotion as Mr Codron was turning away and walking I Ran Up to Him and Stabbed him TO DEATH. There Was BLOOD EVERYWHERE.
    I Have NO IDEA Why I did This,Because I was actually starting to like him,Because in the past we really hated eachother,he always shouted at me and sent me out of Class and stuff, i dont think i was TOO much trouble its not like i was too much trouble in primary so why should high school be any different? So After i Thought he was okay Why Did I Suddenly Have A Dream That I Stabbed Him TO DEATH!

  • Either I’m Crazy or I’m Crazy but is WhatCodron, I was watching them at a far distance Happened in MY DREAM.My friend was having a conversation with my French Teacher,Mr with NO EMOTION. As he finished the conversation and he was walking away I ran Up to Him and STABBED him TO DEATH. There was BLOOD EVERYWHERE!
    Apparently, I was always “TOO MUCH TROUBLE FOR HIM”, he always use to shout at me and sent me out of class and stuff(over the littlest things). But after a while things sorta clamed down and i was actually starting to think he was okay You know? I mean i Wasn’t too much trouble in Primary school so Why Would High School be any different?
    I mean as i was starting to like Him as a teacher, I Suddenly Want to stab Him to DEATH??? Was i really that angry at him? (maybe a few months ago i would have been pleased with this, but it’s kinda of freaky)

  • Sierra:

  • Madi:

    In my dream, I was running around my house, scared out of my mind. I was crying and running away from 2 girls that I didn’t know. The meaner one was trying to sufficate me with my beanie hat. I finally ran into my room and hid under a blanket with a lighter and my cell phone. The nicer of the girls was trying to help me by staying outside of my room. The mean girl barged inti the room and found me under the blanket. She tried to stab me and it didn’t work so she tried to sufficate me again with my beanie hat, but I flipped the lighter behind her and almost set her on fire. I ran into my mom’s room and hid all of the beanie hats and stood there scared. She came in and tried to make me watch a scary video that I have already seen and then it ended.

But He Was Crawling Obviously Because He Was Shot. But Anyway I Sat On Him With A Chair & He Was Getting Puncture Wounds All Over But He Wouldn’t Die! What Does This Mean?

  • Olivia:

    I had a dream that i was Mrs Lovett and i was chopping an unknown guy up and putting him in my bathroom drawer. I was happy and singing in this dream. Does it mean I’ve watched too much Sweeney Todd or does it have underlying messages.

  • courtney:

    I had a dream that my best guy friend called me asking which window my brother’s room is (in real life,he doesn’t know my brother, or where he lives). And not thinking anything of it, I tell him, then him and my other guy friend go and kill my brother by beating him up.

  • Lyla:

    I always have random dreams I kill people I dont know. One time I was a zombie and liked killing and ripping apart people. But that was the only time I liked it. The other times I would kill people because I was either defending other people, or myself. I would tend to overkill and be merciless in the killing and wouldn’t get caught ever. The kill itself would be usually quick violent and gorey. But in reality I would not ever in my life want to to attempt or kill someone. Is something wrong with me?

  • Carmello:

    I have very different dreams but most of them are pretty gruesome and disgusting.my most recent one I killed 20to30 people that just looked at me wrong. The dream take place with me walking in a crowded area lookin for someone to look at me wrong when they did I snatched them up put them in a bag and everyone around doesn’t mind me doin this either so I drag the person to my house where I tie them in a chair and slowly cut and stab them till there’s no blood left I then cut them into pieces and throw them out like there trash go inside and smoke a blunt and go back and do it all over again any thoughts

  • Ashleigh:

    I didn’t kill anyone but witnessed a murder. Basically my family was going to visit our other family and my dad decided to go a bit earlier than us so he was there first, as we pull up on a street i’m very familiar with I see my dad and my grandparents looking upset walking into a house I didn’t know. As I walk in the are sat on the floor, my dad is in tears and he tells me that in the field behind the house he witnessed someone get stabbed. I freaked out so I went to go lock the door as I was scared, Now my dad was in the living room and myself was in the hall and everyone else was behind me on the stairs. As I open the door to close it properly the murderer slams the door open and the door is stopped by the wall so we are stuck on one side but this guy is going after my dad. I try to look through the glass but it’s too blurry and all i can make out is he was wearing a white and multi-coloured jacket. I try to close the door and ask for help but when I turn around everyone is just staring at me not doing anything, in the other room I can hear my dad screaming and this guy trying to stab him and shouting at him saying, you want me dead before my funeral! The guy then runs away and all I see it white, I have no idea if my dad was killed but I remember the screams were so realistic that I woke up early hours in the morning crying and I couldn’t sleep afterwards! What does this mean?

  • Tiffany:

    I had a dream that I was walking with my friends. back to my school and my real dad was in a black truck. and he pointed a gun at me and said get in the F*** car. I told him no you wouldn’t shoot me I’m your daughter. but he shot me in the leg. and I screamed and started crying. he said it again so I climbed in his truck and shut the door. I guess the inside of the truck was sound proof? and you couldn’t hear anything from the outside. he told me sorry I was never there. and pulled out this shot gun and blew his head off. right there in front of me. I saw everything. I was crying and then I opened the door. that was all. I also had another dream similar but I was walking home and I just opened my front door and my step dad was on the ground and there was blood everywhere. my real dad said the same thing but he was sitting on the table waiting for me to get home so he can shoot himself.

  • David A:

    I had a dream this morning that really shook me up. I saw my wife was really in a strange way and acting wierd. She mumbled something like. ” I love you but, —-” I coulnd’t make is out but felt that it was (I want a divorce, can’t live like this anymore, don’t want you etc…) so i persisted to tell me what she had said. We ended up in our car and she was sitting in the back seat on the center arm rest for some wierd reason. I kept asking her, what, what did you say? just say it. Well I am on a side street and I pull into a drive way to do a k turn and when I am in the street turned around and put the car in drive she grabs the seat belt from around me and put it over my mouth. head pulled tight against the headrest and i couldn’t get it off. i drift into a park car and can feel me sufficating and then just as i feel like the lights are going out i wake up in bed with her beside me. very very strange but very real. really got me upset. Never dreamed something like this and especially not my wife.

  • K:

    In my dream I was aware that I was dreaming, yet unable to change the course of my dream or wake up. I did not have any visual indications of where I was, but I felt that I was in China. I was in an empty water canal which had cages lined on both sides with Caucasian men, women, and children inside them. Not one single person had a face. I was gruesomely cutting with knives and other sharp edges, crushing with hammers and bats, and tearing them apart with my own two hands. Briefly before I woke up, I remember seeing the canal filled with blood and littered with the mangled corpses; and seeing my own face drenched with their blood.
