Ive had this nightmare a few times, enough to where I dont remember everything, but vivid enough to where I can never really forget it either. I havent had it for awhile now though so i'll try my best to describe it. So it usually starts off with me upstairs on the second floor of my house. Im always at the very top of the steps already running down the stairs, but every time I look back its pitch black at the top of the stairs from where I just came from. Imagine as if its like a locked level in a game that I havent unlocked. Depite coming from that direction I just cant see anything when I look back towards it, its not necessarily a scary darkness either just dark. But depite that, Im clearly running from something , but whats interesting is I havent seen whatever this thing could be, but I can feel it that there is something dark somewhere. No matter how many times I have had this dream I have never seen what im actually trying to get away from, but I always get the sense that if I stick around for to much longer Ill see that thing, or whatever it may be. Now this is where the green comes in. Everytime I have this dream it seems to take place at night, in my neighborhood and only on my street. same homes but it seems as if the entire development may also be there aswell but I've never actually seen the rest of the neighboor hood just the area around my house. Now for some reason everything is ALWAYS shrouded in a deep green-cyan (172621 color swatch). This is the the closest I could find to what the color seems to looks like, or what I can closely remember, and no I've never had any affiliation with that color in my life so I dont know really why its there. Now again imagine your neighboor hood, but every single, and I mean every single light is off. No street lights, porch lights nothing, just pitch black homes with not even a hint of life. Imagine your town or whatever but as if your the only one there. Now even though I specifically said there was absolutely no lights, there somehow does seem to be a singular source of light coming from somewhere, and I have absoluelty no clue where it is. And whatever it is, its seems to be the one producing that dark green cast. theres no moon no stars, nothing, even the night sky is that deep color.Not perfectly black like the night, but that deep green. Whats extremely interesting to me though is that everything has a shadow, the homes, trees, light poles etc. Yet like I said there is no moon, stars nothing. But something gives off a light as if the moon was out at a low angle causing those shadows. There's no time either so even though every shadow is casted at the exact same angle pointing in what seems to be a westwerd direction. I have no clue what time it is. Even though it is dark it is still lit enough for me to see without much trouble. Im always sprinting out of my house not even closing the front door behind me.I actually have never closed it behind me. Hell sometimes I dont even go through the front door, sometimes Ill run through my kitchen out the backdoor, and go over my backyard fence. I wont even open the gate cause im panicking and that gate is not easy to get over. the only time this backdoor scenario seems to happen though is when it rains in the dream. And I never look back when I go over the gate. But when I run out from my front door I look back, and when I look back to see whats "after me" its again pitch black from where I just ran from. Im always sprinting down my front yard This part never changes, and I either keep booking it straight down the street, or I turn left which leads me down another street, that left turn is much closer instead of going straight. Those different streets dont seem to change the ending though so I dont think it matters which way I end up going. From both of these streets no matter which way I go I can still see my home, because it sits on a hill, and every single time before the dream ends I turn around facing my house the front door still slightly ajar just waiting to see if something exits the house.....and theres always nothing. Despite their being nothing everytime I can still feel that their is something somewhere, the scary part for me is I dont even know whether that THING is in the house or somewhere in a completely different area of the development. But I FEEL as if its in the house, hell im constantly looking back at my own home in the dream. There is no sound either, or from what I can remember there dosen't seem to be much sound at all. No smell, but sometimes it is absolutely pouring outside and other times no weather at all, and then ill wake up. Havent had it since, but its one of those nightmares where when I do have it, I immediately recognize it during and after its over. Sorry this is so long But I dont know how else to describe it. And despite the description it isnt a terribly scary dream, but the over all feeling while having it is absolutely dreadful, its as if your under immense weighted pressure, while also being watched at the same time, yet you somehow have already been caught without realising it.

Anyone ever wake up and be able to go back into their dream? I was tired, woke up and wanted to sleep more. I just continued my dream, but it was missing the people in it. I decided to explore the house and as I got to an open doorway, an intelligent black mass saw me. I was stubborn, so I woke up and did this twice (because tired 🥀). The entity made my skin crawl and I woke up with goosebumps.

I've nicknamed this mass the Dream Eaters. I see them pretty often. At least a few times a month in the same sort of scenario where the dream is over but I want it to continue for sleep. Does anyone have a name for these guys? I'm sure I am not the only one to encounter them.

why am i having so many dreams of people dying? i just woke up from a dream of a police officer shooting a guy in the head, and i’ve already had so many dreams like that. i had a dream i killed a random person, i had a dream a girl next to me was killed with a chainsaw, i had a dream i killed my mom, i had a dream i killed an entire cheer team, i had a dream my friends were set on fire, i had a dream i killed myself, i had a dream my sister drowned, there’s more i can’t think of. how do i make stop

Ugh. I keep having visions of that man standing in the corner of my room at night… just waiting to walk over and rub his nubs on me. And lay on me. I wish I never watched that video. Cursed.

I was only asleep for an hour or so, but it’s like I knew I was dreaming, in my dream I told myself this is a dream and I need to wake up, then it’s where things started getting weird and creepy, I was in a few different houses. One house I was walking out of a room I did not recognize, and a very tall man who’s as like 8foot walked in the room staring at me with a uncanny face, and I think it was my brother. Because first when I saw him he was not tall and then he was, then I went into my living room where my sister was sitting without saying a word, her face was also extremely uncanny. And my dogs starting doing weird stuff that I can’t really explain, but the creepiest thing of it all was when I was randomly in my living room downstairs and I saw my mother standing in the stairs and she was holding a knife and smiling at me. The only words that got out of my mouth during the entire dream was a silent scream ”aaaaaa”

Is this lucid dreaming, because I knew I was dreaming for a bit but I could not control the dream at all

I played dead rising at least 5 months ago and I really got into it . and the characters are very good too .

but now i'm dreaming about them and its really creepy . they are vivid too and I hate that and I find it hard to sleep some nights and for more context I have 1 and 2 .

I want to start this off by saying this is a very weird/unique nightmare. Its only a sound and a concept with no visuals but it is horrid to have to experience. It starts off with a sound, its a single note, but it feels like a pretty, sweet, innocent-looking doll but there is a pure raw evil energy surrounding it. I cannot verbally explain how evil this thing feels. Then in almost like a spiral pattern it gets lower and lower until it reaches its peak depth, where it sounds like a huge man who overpowers everything and everyone around it. And again it sounds evil like if the heart of satan was taken out and made into a sound (but not like tricky satan or the business man satan whos clever with his words its the pure evil satan). And then this spiral reverses and continues again. This cycle continues for hours and there is no way to escape it. Sometimes I will see or hear something that reminds me of the dream and I get an overwhelming sense of panic it could be anything a video, a sound, a phrase. I just want to know if anyone else has experienced this?

I'm curious if anyone experienced something similar. Recollection of this experience is coming back to me from time to time. Time to share it somewhere public.

An infinite speed on a geometric loop nightmare.

I would ride a simplifed car, on a string loop, suspended on 4 points in air. Forming a sagging square in a void. I would slowly accelerate, going up & down on the parabolas.

The acceleration would be accompanied by ever growing sense of dread, until I would be flying around the loopz making a lap more than once a second. It would physically hurt, with my body tense, I would wake up screaming.

I've had this weird thing happen to me for years and I'm curious if anyone else experiences the same thing. My nightmares are never exactly the same. The place, people, and whatever is chasing me can be completely different but the way the dream goes is almost always the same.

It's always first person. I never see myself, I'm just seeing everything through my own eyes. Usually I'm with normal people, sometimes people I know and sometimes random people. Then something weird or supernatural happens. It can be zombies, aswangs, ghosts or some creature I've never seen before. Eventually it always seems to become about me. I'm the one being chased or attacked.

Tonight was especially weird and the scariest because it happened several times in a short period (2-hour of sleep). The first dream was about my aunt. She had just given birth and we were in some kind of hut. Then zombies/aswangs started surrounding the place. They eventually cornered me and one of them bit me, then I woke up. I went back to sleep and basically got the same dream again. Same general story and same people, it just restarted like a game lol. This happened like 3 times.

Then the 4th time it changed. I felt like I was somehow from the future and already knew what was going to happen. I was telling everyone to prepare for something. My aunt was still there but she wasn't pregnant anymore and the place was different. In my dream I know that I'm from the future because obviously my aunt is not noticeably pregnant and everyone is alive. This time there weren't zombies or aswangs. I'm alone in a vent looks like in a game Poppy Playtime but looks darker. There was just one thing about this entity. I couldn't see its whole body because it was really dark. I could only see its head and this really long arm reaching out/chasing me. Its skin and head shape didn't look human at all. And I somehow knew it wasn't after anyone else. It was after me. It grabbed me around my ribs and I actually felt pain in the dream. That woke me up immediately.

I've also had sleep paralysis with these nightmares quite a lot. Sometimes I wake up but I'm still seeing or hearing stuff from the dream and I can't move until I fully wake up. Other times I wake up normally, fall asleep again, have another nightmare, and then get sleep paralysis. One thing I've noticed after having these for years is that darkness seems to trigger them a lot. If I sleep in a completely dark or very dim room, there's a really high chance I'll get one. I'd say maybe 90% of the time. If I leave my room light or a warm lamp on it happens way way less often. I've gotten so used to it that it almost feels normal now which is probably the weirdest part. I'm not really thinking if the dreams mean something supernatural or anything like that. I'm more curious why the story is always different but the dream itself follows basically the same pattern every time.

Anyone else experience something similar?

P.S. For context, Aswang is a creature from Philippine folklore, often associated with targeting pregnant women. In my dream they looked more like zombies because well that's what my brain decided lmao. I'm not sure why there were a whole bunch of them though since aswangs usually hunt alone, or if they'd even be interested in a newborn since my aunt had already given birth. My brain is just fcked thats it. Just a fun and weird in my end.

OK so I don’t know how to really explain it but I am taking a medicine called amitriptyline and I take it for migraine prevention and I’ve been having these crazy out of body nightmares like I see traumatic things happen to me and I relive traumatic experiences that I’ve been through in my life. and when I wake up, it feels extremely real and i don’t know what to think. has anyone had a similar experiences or advice?

Does anyone else experience sleep paralysis along Exploding Head Syndrome (EHS)?

During sleep paralysis, we're unable to move or speak, but i have different problem i experience EHS along sleep paralysis Has anyone else experienced something similar? How to deal with it, it's been terrifying for me.
