Yeah, I probably just misunderstood the whole thing... Or it's a matter of how you perceive it, like Raspberry said. I don't think those dreams you described would be the "scary dreams" and the scarier ones you mentioned would be "nightmares".

Well, that's probably also true. I run from things a lot too, whereas in waking life I would probably just whimper and scream... However, in some of my dreams I have fought off a monster, somehow knowing its weak point. The dream usually ends before the fight is decided, though. But just saying, I would never be able to fight any kind of monster or crazy murderer in real life, I would be far too scared.
P.S: I prefer strawberries
