Brrrr….
I’ve been having some very strange dreams lately. Not nightmares, just… spooky in a way.
What’s the strangest dream you ever had???
Here’s mine:
I’m in an old medieval-looking town (I’m thinking Italy or…), a beautiful town, where all the streets are water. It’s filled with people in colourful costumes with funky colourful hats.
I (and my dream-crew, I’m never alone when I dream, I always have people with me, I never see them, though) stand in front of a ghost-house, and I have to enter to find “the thing that frightens me the most.”
We enter, and I take out my wand (Yes, yes, I’ve just finished the latest Harry Potter book ) and say “Lumos”. The tiniest fleck of light appear, and I have to REALLY concentrate and finally there is light (For those who do not know HP, Lumos creates light from your wand).
There are all kinds of scary monsters in the house, half-eaten zombie-creatures etc. and they start swarming towards me, but I am not scared of them. They cannot touch me. No, what makes me uneasy is the knowledge that I have to find the really scary monster.
Then the dream goes black…

Omega> You like Harry Potter? I once had a nightmare that I saw a dementor in a hat. The clashing of imagery of nightmare and the banal was horrendous I still feel nauseated about it.
I actually had a weird Harry Potter related dream recently (as a result of reading the new book 3 times while on holiday) but I can't remember what it was.
One of the weirdest dreams I've had (and this is a pretty recurring one, for whatever reason) is that I'm flying around outside my house and I wind up crashing into the side of the garage.
Hmm. Pretty much anything that's semi-normal would be a strange dream for me as normally they're pretty insane.
Only kidding. I don't tend to have scary dreams very often; except those falling ones where you suddenly wake up with a jump just as you're about to land. I hate those.
I once fell asleep on a train and dreamt that I was having sex with Judith Chalmers (UK Geriatric TV presenter). I woke up and people were looking at me funny and I suspect that I may have been talking in my sleep.

AC> Strange! Strange as in you wake up and go "huh, what was THAT about??". Not a nightmare in the sense that you wake up bathed in sweat and scream, but just one that follows you - the one I had is weeks ago, but I keep thinking about it and what significance it may have (I rather subscribe to the psychological idea, that if we remember our dreams, we're trying to get a message across to ourselves).

I've had plenty of strange dreams, and last night was one of them.
Last night at first I dreamt that we went into a vacation home, I remember is almost PERFECTLY. Like it was real or something! It was beautiful. Anyway we left for the day and came back and the bath water on the second floor was running, and the door was closed. I walked in and it was almost near overflowing but not quite. So Daniel walks in and turns it off..and ALL around us (I was standing in the hall), the corners of every one of the walls start leaking water...everywhere. My hamster Twinkie gets wet too! So I piled towels on her cage so she wouldnt get wet and drown. And that's all I can remember for that part of the dream. Then It went into another dream where I was at my house and I dreamt there that I was potentially pregnant! I dont know HOW..but my Mom wasnt even...pissed..She was scared and worried, but not pissed. And let me tell you, since you dont know my parents, My mom said if I ever SMOKED..she'd break my arms off...so let alone..me getting pregnant.. Okay, I was potentially a few weeks pregnant so she brought home a EPT test and that's all I can remember. I got woken up. But that was a LONG night. And that's just one of a billion freaky/wierd dreams that I've experienced.
I have vivid dreams all the times......Omega if you have houses in your dream it represents your life...If there is something spooky about it or a scary room...it means there is something inside ourself that you don't want to confront usually. check out the website www.dreammoods.com
for the symbolism. I was given this site and I also bought a book, because dreams can tell you a lot about yourself.
I had one recently where I went to a small town on the coast of Southern Britain called Eastbourne, ended up in a place called Krauser Street and some chinese man started beating me up for killing a wasp that was about to sting me.
When I was younger I used to have this dream about Tucan Sam. I was like 5 and I dreamt I was at some zoo and tucan sam was there, and he kept telling me to shut up, so I hit him and then he ate me..

Strangest dream, Measles delusion at the age of 12 imagined the muscular yogurt pots from a TV advert were chasing me. I was young so the dream seemed to go on forever.
That or the odd Deja vu experience, where I am sure I have dreamed whats happening but that would be silly and paranormal so we won't think about that

If you haven't seen the movie Starship Troopers, you wouldn't understand mine.
Anyways, me and my best friends were soldiers and stuff with guns; we were supposed to be protecting an outpost of some sort. Then we see a couple of these huge dragonflies with very large claws take off. I start whimpering, one of my friends(Daniel) says. "Shutup David."
Then ground bugs are upon us, we all start shooting; but three of my friends get pulled underground and the last one(Brad) gets in the large jaw-incisor of one of the groundwalkers. I panic and start blasting; i blow the thing off of him except I accidentally shoot him in the chest. Miraculously, he gets up and brushes himself off, yelling "I'm OK!"
Nevertheless, I think that we're all doomed and so I run off a cliff intending to commit suicide, except I float down gently much to my frustration. The end.
