Why do I have this indescribable memory that only brings terror?
For context, I have had this memory for as long as I can remember. I am 23.
I do not know where it came from.
There are 2 memories, brining the same emotion - Terror
1st;
A stairwell, lit up, made up of concrete, as any stairwell is. There is a lamp, lit up, to the top right. I’d say the associated emotion is just a looming threat, a guarantee that my life is over.
2nd;
(And this one for some reason seems to bring me a stronger feeling of terror), a black and white image, the perspective being from above of, seemingly a structure; not like a house or a tall windowed building,
but a completely pitch black structure. This building has 2 scenes I can gather from memory, the above perspective, and an “inside” perspective, with possibly corridors? It also is rusty, though the imagery I can gather still black and white. When imagining this scene of the same image (my apologies if that’s hard to describe) it brings a much more desolate, looming terror. It gives me goosebumps every time I think about it.
If anyone can give me an explanation on this, something that isn’t on the top page of google (where I looked first), it would be insanely appreciated.
