first post but have very strange recurring dreams

Ok, here we go, several years ago I had a dream, it was very strange and involved an abadoned hotel on a island that had a hidden gem mine full of mysterious echoes.
The island could only be gotten too by row boat and I remember a bridge in it also.
There were also pools of water some where good some where bad, and there was a river that should only be crossed at certain times of the day...it was all a bit hazy, but then last night I had almost the same dream, for some reason I returned to this place but in a different body...but remembered everything...I don't know what it means, and some of the details are pretty wierd, there was all sorts of things going on...

I've had a similar experience. When I was little I slept in my moms bed. One night I dreamed that I was in her bed and above it was a catwalk with a murderer on it. He shot my mom while she was sleeping. It was full of false awakenings and really scared the crap out of me.

Then I had a dream I was on the beach. I walked away from the ocean towards buildings along the sand and all of the sudden there was a catwalk. On it was the murderer, he was with a woman this time. I talked to him, had like a normal conversation even though he had killed my mom.
