I was some sort of exorcist. A mother and daughter was hunted by an evil dwarf no matter where they run. I discovered that the dwarf had bound himself to the name of the dead father, and will be able to find and drain the life force of the family if they utter his name. I told them this, and to avoid mentioning the father's name until the dwarf got bored and move on.
Hi, call me Kairos (means "Time" basically) I have what some would call "sleep disturbances". To list a few, Sleep Paralysis, Consistent Nightmares, Sleepwalking, and sometimes Night Terrors to the point where I had to go to the doctor. Now my nightmares actually have been proven to be useful in my profession, I am a writer, mostly horror hence why it's useful. Now don't get me wrong I HATE them but they're a condition I've come to live with. I've been the last human being trapped on a dying earth, sucked into space, been attacked by animals/creatures, and seen horrific things happen to people to list a few. I don't think I can get into too much vivid detail on some parts to avoid breaking any TOS rules, but my doctor suggested I get a dream journal. I googled something actually (Why is it nighttime in my dreams) and it brought me here so I thought it would be perfect. I am not going to list any past nightmares because there are only fragments that I can remember like most dreams, but I bookmarked this page so when I wake up from a terrible/pleasant or just plain old strange experience I can write it down here. Get feedback that sort of thing. So anyone who happens to stumble along stay, go, it does not matter. Just know what you're getting into, I don't want any suggestions from my dreams leaking into yours.

Last night, I had this very vivid dream. The worst part is, I didn't get the girls name! Though I do recall at some point I was desperately trying to get her number... Anyway! Here's the story... A new girl had moved into the neighbourhood with her family. She was tall, slender and had brown/brunette hair. I kept seeing her climb and jump over walls with great speed whilst viewing her from within my home. She wore a Pokemon jacket. One day, I saw her entering her home across the street from me. She picked up on that and so teased me by kind of waving but not, and having her family tease me along with her - acting as though I can't see them as I thought they couldn't see me looking at her. After a bit of back and forthing with these antics, said girl finally came over and introduced herself to my family. She seemed rather timid and shy but kooky and interesting. I was afraid of what I might say in case it offended her and she'd zip right off again and not want anything to do with me. Then, the worse scenario happened. My mum told this girl all of my private and embarrassing moments all within the space of what seemed like five minutes. I pulled my t-shirt up, hiding my face from embarrassment and thoughts that this girl will never date me. I went upstairs, decidedly wallowing in my bath tub (which was empty), fully clothed drinking beer. This girl knows all my darkest secrets, what difference does it make now if she sees me drinking beer in a bath tub, right? The girl came up stairs and said something along the lines of "I don't drink alcohol that often, but I don't mind a cocktail every now and then" - trying to be on my level and relate with me somewhat. Is she dropping a hint that she's somewhat interested in me? Who knows, but it sure felt that way. As she went back down stairs, I noticed her Pokemon jacket and some figurines were in my old bedroom (from when I was younger). I sat on my bed and sniffed into her jacket, it felt like a huge weight was lifted off my shoulders when I could smell her scent. She then came back upstairs again saying she was leaving and that she's come to collect her figurines (forgetting about her jacket, she was a bit of an oddball like that). As she left, I felt some form of relief as the girl could no longer hear from my mum about all this - and I have her jacket! Bonus! She may come back and that will spark up some personal conversation without having the whole family listen in! Indeed, as I looked out my bedroom window, she too had noticed that she had "forgotten" her jacket as she was at the front door of her house - her mother with the door opened and talking to some business person looking to make a quick buck - the girl walked into her house and immediately came running back over the road, claiming for her jacket. I gave it to her, but as she was about to leave I stopped her and asked for her phone number. At this point I was starting to gain consciousness heading back into reality. I was trying my damndest to stay in the dream so I could learn more about her - but I felt the same compelling passion as many of you on this thread have also felt. This quirky, kooky girl feels like my "soulmate" and I woke up hating myself because none of it was real. I, too, have been single for some time now (about a year) and maybe this vivid dream is reminding me to take some kind of action? I don't know, but I'm not one to force a relationship to happen. Save for the fact I attend these occasional geek meets we have here in the UK, I've had no luck meeting such an odd and unique character at these meets. Hopefully this soulmate is out there and we can meet.
I had a lucid fade and was in a state with no dream and partial (10%) bodily awareness. I started hearing music by the Beastie Boys. It was recreated perfectly! The guitar was so cool and real sounding. The door bell rang. I have been waiting for a package. I decided I had better wake up and get the door. There was no one there. The hypnogogic noise (door bell) was so realistic I honestly believed someone had rang it.
I was lucid for a couple hours. I drifted in hypnogogic stuff between dreams, and even woke lightly a few times. Much of the theme was hanging out with my DG and trying to get close to her physically. Any time I was a bit to 'friendly' the dream would cut short and I would spend a few minutes with no dream. The very best part was near the end. I raced around in my sports car for awhile tearing around corners on a mountain road and such. At some point I decided that I could make the car do Dukes of Hazard jumps over other cars with no ramps. I had a great time racing around and doing awesome sports jumps.
+ in a dark room with others spread out on mattresses on the floor sleeping. I'm up and walking around and heading back to my mattress. There's a girl on a mattress on the right of mine, (she invites me? or I just go to her?) it turns out she's my wife and she beckons me in under the covers and we snuggle. + I'm walking along the main ("com") area of boy scout camp at UL, and I'm noticing and analyzing the water level: it seems far too high for September, the level should be very low instead (I ask someone if they agree?). I head back to where I started and not can't find a famous feature that was there and ask where did it go, somebody answers that another group stole it (for firewood?). Someone says that (the forest service?) is no doing a good job of protecting the ridge areas on the top of the mountains where the wind blows (?). (DO): There is a group hiking/riding along the rim of a canyon, I'm hovering over the canyon looking back down at them. It looks like they've constructed a tram line that runs right along the rim. I'm looking at this trying to make sense of it. I see closer that it is a procession of backpackers, the backpacks are slung over some carrying cart, with one backpack hung off to the side of each cart, each backpack is balancing against the one on the other side. + HELP (something) is coming, I call (mentally) to my remote-control toy truck to come save me but it can't reach me because something is blocking it. I'm then meeting with some boss of whom I'm slightly afraid, I'm carrying a colorful plastic (toy-like but functional) automatic rifle, and I pump the barrel and remove the large cartridge, and I hold up the empty gun to the boss to prove to him the chamber is empty and the gun is unloaded. + sitting with the notary/real-estate agent and she gives me instructions on how to arrange the inheritance of my wife's property. It involves several steps that nobody else told me about. I say this, "nobody else told me about these thing, it's the first time I'm hearing it," it makes sense to me what she's saying. I repeat the steps back to her for confirmation.
I’m at home, where it’s pouring raining outside, to the point that the entire driveway and sidewalk outside my front door is flooded with about a foot of water. I’m still by the front door though, waiting for an important package to arrive. While looking outside, I see an open and plugged-in laptop out on the lawn, and worry that someone left it there in the rain. After a while, the water starts to recede a bit, so I can finally get outside to get the package from the mailman. I can’t walk too far out though, as there’s a ton of grub worms all over the sidewalk, and I don’t want to walk across them barefoot. I’m riding in a train, but then me and some other guy jump off at this futuristic train station-kinda thing. Apparently, it’s a “sorting station”, which sorts cars that are heading to different destinations. One train comes in with cars going to two different destinations (marked red and green), and without the train stopping, all the green cars are disconnected and roll down another track, where a second train is waiting to take them to their appropriate destination. I’m really interested in the technology behind this, but I’m cut short when a police car shows up, responding to a call about 2 people jumping off the train. My accomplice grabs me by the arm, and we hide in a small alcove just off the train tracks. I’m at work. My boss is trying to hook up some network cables, but the only available wall plug is near the ceiling, so he’s walking precariously on the edges of the cubicle walls to get to it. I watch out of curiosity, secretly hoping something funny happens. As soon as he plugs it in, however, there’s a bright flash, and suddenly everything’s back to how it was a few minutes earlier. I initially think I just had some weird deja vu, but I realize that everyone around is looking around confused like it affected them as well. The entire room seems a lot brighter though, and I wonder if some major catastrophe happened. There’s suddenly another flash, and all of us are sent back in time again. It happens a couple more times, but each time some of the cubicles are missing and the walls look more run-down. After the 5th or 6th flashback, there’s a loud screeching noise, and all the lights cut out. There’s a moment of silence as everyone tries to figure out what is going on. Suddenly, the phone right next to me starts to ring, which scares me at first. I slowly pick up the phone. There’s a ton of static on the other end at first, before a demonic voice tells me that I’m now cursed and will die in 7 days. I start getting angry at the person on the phone. “Do you think this is f***ing funny? Do you think you can f***ing scare everyone in this building for giggles? Well listen here, you little s***. I’m not afraid of you. I’ll never be afraid of you, because… because I’m dreaming!” I hang up the phone and turn to see some guy who seems to emanate darkness from his body. I apparently have to fight him, but the fight scene switches to a 3rd person view. It looks very much like an old Game & Watch game I used to play, where you have to move up and down on your side of the screen and try to shoot energy to hit the person on the other side. After a few seconds, I end up getting hit first, which causes me to switch back to first person, where I am absorbed by darkness. As it surrounds me, I feel an intense pressure pushing all over my body. It’s hard to explain, it feels sort of like the sensation of water pressure when you go really deep in a swimming pool - but much more intensely painful. I’m almost consumed by it, but I remember I am dreaming, so I tense up and unleash all my energy at once. Rays of light flow out of me, cutting through the darkness and relieving the pressure on my body. Instead, the light takes over the guy I’m fighting, and he falls to the floor in pain. I stand right over him and start taunting him. “You thought you could stop me with darkness? I am the light of the world… or at least the Italians.” I’m in my high school gymnasium. There’s a ton of little kids and parents around to watch some kind of wrestling event on a large projector screen at one end of the gym. I’m helping out with getting stuff set up, including fixing one of the large fluorescent bulbs. A maintenance guy who’s helping me lowers the light via a cable from the ceiling. Instead of replacing a bulb though, we have to replace some weird thing that looks like a large spherical clump of soap suds. Apparently, the sudsy “bulb” is made of some special material that reacts with a gas that’s output from the light socket, producing a bright light. The reaction also makes the sudsy material super light, which makes it stay in the socket without any restraint, as long as the light is always pointing down. I go to adjust the “bulb”, but I accidentally knock some pieces of suds loose. The maintenance man looks at me disappointed since I just ruined that bulb, but then pulls another one out and gently puts it in place. I watch as it starts to glow, and soon have to turn away because it’s so bright.
I am inside a Mall. I'm not sure what our purpose is but I am with someone I know. We we're walking and doing something. Now I find myself with my classmates and they're huddled while my other classmate and I was not in the huddle. She was looking at the photos in the camera and I kinda looked down to see her pits. She saw me and she put it down. She said something like "(My name) is sneaking simply" I quickly looked down and pretended I did not hear what she was saying. Now i find myself walking with n adult. Maybe she's a teacher. We made it to the outer part of the mall like in MOA. Anyway, we're walking and she's asking me where are the others. I'm telling her. She's mildly disappointed of this.
Two or three hypnagogic experiences while falling asleep. The sensation that I'm walking and my foot slips out from under me. Another "partial OBE?" Also I imagine I see the purple window in the void again, momentarily, with vague content. INT. CHILDHOOD HOME - DAY A white gerbil is sick and dying from starvation. I hold her in a white towel. She struggles in my hand at first but then becomes calm. I place her on a shelf in a closet filled with torn strips of toilet paper.
I dreamed that I was in a convenience store in Thailand. They were selling small newborn puppies in yogurt cups. I also had another dream fragment where me and a girl got in a spat because we hate each other. I also dreamed about playing Team Fortress 2.
In my parents front room, I get up from a settee and head over to the door. I stop suddenly noticing a large thick green lizard, like a komodo but nicer looking lol I make it out the door, but then head back in scared its going to bite me as its moving towards me. Deciding to brave it out I don't try and hug it but shove my hand into its mouth. It doesn't bite me and turns out to be this real sweet kid who has transformed.
With my family we were stranded in wilderness. We sheltered in a cavern that opened to enormous pit left by an earthquake. It was in a crossing of huge river, desert and a temperate forest. We quickly prepared the cavern for our living area, then set up a small farm nearby. Just before the harvest, during one night, some people decided to start a wild party at our farm and destroyed almost all plants. We got rid of them and set our farm anew, bigger than before. Then we started exploring the pit in search of coal and iron.
COMMENTARY NON-LUCID DREAM LUCID DREAM Asleep: 11:40 WBTB: 2:18, 5:30, a couple other times in the morning Awake: 10:15 Dreams: 2 Lucids: 0 1. I woke up only 2 hours and 40 minutes after going to sleep to use the restroom and recalled fragments of this dream. I believe this is the first dream I've recalled in an earlier REM period since starting my dream journal. The first scene I remember is a sexual scene on a bus or train, where we are trying to hide what we are doing from others. (Memory Blank) The girl with whom the scene occurred and I are now in the forest by a house that is hidden from the public. I wrote down "witness protection" as a tag but do not recall where I got that from. I see her walking along a path with her friend. But the way I see her is by watching a reflection that somehow exists in the forest, although there is no mirror or other surface that could give off such a reflection. I see myself as well, and I am wearing blue jeans and white T-shirt. Her friend says she notices me immediately. I think I am a bodyguard. I don't remember anything else. 2. I am at an amusement park in this large mansion. Several of my co-workers are also there. It is a weird, horror mansion. All the works there are evil (as I found out later in the dream). I have the sense of this being a long dream and of experiencing a lot while exploring the mansion, but I don't recall details. At one point, I learn that my co-workers are looking for "treasure" that is kept in the mansion. It turns out the whole time the treasure was on the necklace worn by the woman who owns the mansion, whose room was on the top floor. It is a necklace with a ridiculously large pearl that is worth (only?) $7,000. There is a fight while my co-workers are looking for the treasure and somehow the necklace ends up on the ground. (Memory blank). Now out of the amusement park, I'm in a different location and receive a call from one of my co-workers asking about the necklace. I wake up. Notes - Since I had insomnia the past two nights, I was very tired. I think I slept very deeply as a result and had trouble recalling my dreams. I woke up several times in the later morning hours with the feeling of having been dreaming, but could not remember. Additionally, T did not go into work this morning and she often moves around when I wake up which is distracting during recall. Furthermore, I fell asleep so quickly last night that I did not do MILD nor auto suggestion. However, I did wake up to use restroom at 2:18 and I did MILD then. After, I found it somewhat difficult to go to sleep so I was awake for about 45 minutes. Then, at a later awakening, I did a full SSILD induction after which I went to sleep but did not have a lucid dream.
Still too late to bed, but better attention to dreams. + girl, my left arm wrapped around her from the back, my arm between her legs, I'm holding it there tightly, feel what's underneath and get embarrassed and pull it away + I need to find Joe, father of ToNei (4th grade friend, tooth accident). I'm standing on GPB looking up at their house on the hill, slightly to the left. I think Joe is probably inside the house. On the deck I see people and think T is probably there, I look for him and see a guy with a bushy beard, he seems to be there with work colleagues. + on a (fantasy) beach with my kids aged about 6 and 8, we're walking and talking. + looking at small things stacked on top of each other (in the back porch of CH?) + sitting at a table (at the beach?) with others, there's a (girl?) at the head of the table who wants to squish some "bug" which is in the form of a floating, rain-bow colored feather-like creature which is delicately hovering over the table. I say I don't want to squish it, it's too large, and I sort of bat it away from me, it's like a floating crepe, circular and colorful. Then I leave the table to get my little pet thing, it's like a frog in a small Tupperware container filled with water, I know it's very sensitive to light, and I see it shrinking back from the light, it is changing colors. + I and friends run a trolley. We've put a slab (dish-towel sized) of bacon draped over a railing (as a test?), thinking the passenger will share it with us, but the passenger does not, he keeps it for himself, and we get upset (and kick the passenger off?). He should have torn it in half and shared it with us. Something about "8".
(See Tues/Wed and Wed/Thurs for a description of the dreams mentioned in the title). Sunday/Monday night 7 hours of sleep. A direct transcription of my dream journal, which has proven rather difficult to read: Mic pix Had to hold sisters' up; they were in boxes for some reason And a friend of mine from IRL was there Monday/Tuesday No dream recall whatsoever. So sad! D: 6 hours sleep Tuesday/Wednesday 6-ish hours of sleep. I honestly can't decipher this note either. I think I was still very much in a dreamlike state when I wrote it, because it makes virtually no sense. "Dad, strange dry -- almost meter side (winner?) sprinklers" I remember this one though: I was at a zoo/aquarium (combination of the two). One exhibit had a nice animal in it (panda? polar bear? I think it was some sort of bear) and some creatures that were made out of slime! They were black with cute eyes, apparently. One snuck out of its exhibit somehow in order to talk to me. He wanted to be free in order to be with his wife and kids. Because apparently, slime creatures get married and have families. :O I guess he needed help getting out of there, even though he had already gotten out of the exhibit. However, the employer (zookeeper?) caught him. A snake friend of mine and I tried to save him, but the results were inconclusive...as in, I can't remember what happened or whether or not I woke up before the dream finished. Wednesday/Thursday 6 hours of sleep again. I was almost lucid in this one, but not quite. I had hypnagogic imagery, and I think there was a white toaster floating in a black void. There was a creepy disembodied voice that kept repeating "Dreams within dreams! Dreams within dreams!" and it scared the crap out of me. Tess scolded me a bit when I forced myself to wake up because I could have taken control of the dream! However I wasn't thinking logically enough to do that, it seems. Thursday/Friday No dream recall sadly. 7 hours of sleep, but man I was exhausted. IRL, this whole week has been a disaster. Botched an important project that was worth 6% of my grade in one of my major courses. The stress of this semester is insane, and I really hope I can come out on top with acceptance into my program and all As. And not getting super fat in the process would be good too.
