Thread: What happens when you die in your dream?

In the dreams I died, I mostly have been shot by someone and in all of them I was reanimated, like in a silly Ego-Shooter.

I went back and forth between earth and heaven until at the end, I was walking toward a bright light in the clouds. The next time I 'died' it was while running from a nuclear explosion but I woke up after everything turned to white. In all of them there was no pain and just an "oh..." feeling.

In my dream I had the same "oh..." feeling but the dream was different.

I've died a number of times in my dreams. Any of these below I've experienced.

1. Fade to black and I wake up. Sometimes with a bout of sleep paralysis involved before the full wake up.
2. I float around as a ghost some time after death scene. Sometimes trying to communicate with people I know or dream characters but being unable to.
3. Nothing. Change in dream scene perhaps. Sometimes a change in character POV.
4. Facing a God like creature. Usually the Guy isn't happy to see me, lol and I get sent back to wake up.
