Killing the Killer Clown

[c0sm0nautt]

Last night I had the following disturbing dream: It's a dark night. I’m on the front lawn and there is this evil character – a clown. I call him Bozo the clown. First he appears in the form of a pile of socks. I go into the garage to get gasoline to burn the socks. I also get a punk – the things you use to light fireworks. I lit it inside the house and it made a lot of smoke. When I go to locate the socks, they are gone. Next I am in another scene, almost like a warehouse. I see the evil clown sitting up top, almost on a throne. He looks like the scary clown "It" from the movies, but with purple hair. He is staring at me, looking almost statue-like. I sneak up on him with the intent to kill him. There are a bunch of other dream characters on the path to the clown, and I get the impression that he can see through all of them. Eventually I get up to the clown and stab him in the face. This dream had an element of fear in it. This was a strange dream for me. I haven't had a classic nightmare like this in a while. Also, I've never killed the perceived negative element of my dream. I'm curious if anyone has had similar dreams, where they attack.

That sounds like a really awesome dream, though I'm sure it was really scary for you. I used to have dreams like this as a kid, after killing the monster I'd always feel a lot better. It's good to build your confidence up like that in order to stop having bad dreams.
