I know what your problem is. Your neighbor is a witch and is sending these evil dreams your way to torment you. Your only possible solution is to set her on fire. Thats the best thing for it.

If she doesn't burn, we'll certainly know she's a witch! Same if she floats when we throw her in a lake, she's a witch!


I used to have a recurring dream when I was a child (circa 1988-1992) that I'd be laying in bed, looking out into the hallway of my upper floor of the house (bed faced the door, with the headboard on the opposite wall of the room). The ambient light of my father sitting at the kitchen table which was down the hall would fade completely out, and I would become terrorfied of the impending entrance of two large things/monsters with hunched backs, about 7-8 feet tall with more gleaming white teeth than a shark, no eyes, and just completely not visible except for the teeth.

If I fought it would be worse than if I had just gotten above the sheets and let them start eating me, which is what I did for the longest time.

This was until for some odd reason one time I pulled a katana blade from the side of my bed and decapitated them both, got back under the covers, went back to sleep, and never had the dream again.

Thank You Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles!

My friend is probably the only person who has woken up laughing from a dream. He had a dream where he was watching a sitcom about the Holocaust (yeah, I know). Then the name of the sitcom came up on the screen, and it was apparently so funny he woke up laughing.

The sad part is, he can never remember what that sitcom was actually called.

There is something interesting / weird i would like to know if others have similar experience.

I dont sleep walk, atleast not that we know of. BUT, everytime im ill or have high fever, i have a 100% chance of sleep walking.
Why does this happen? And according to people that saw me sleep walk, they say i walk up and down stairs with my eyes still closed,
and then back to my bed.

Its the witch. Why do you think you got sick in the first place?

One time i was sick and had a dream that i went upstairs in the middle of the night and my dad told me to pour water all over our carpeted stairs, i thought this was wierd, but did it anyway, and then went to bed. When i woke up that morning my mom said there was water all over the stairs, apparently i had not been dreaming but was in some funky trance/sleepwalk mode...

This sounds identical to what i just described. Once my mom tried to snap me out of sleepwalk or w/e it was. And i was crying and apologizing the fax machine was too heavy and no one wants to buy it.
And then i went hysterical with panic attack.

Dreamed I was trapped in a Doctor Seuss like world, except the Whos had a uncanny resemblance to a Chaos Sorcerer. Worst dream ever.

But could you hear them?

I had awful dream, I dreamed that was president of a candy company, and it was against the law for me to eat any of the candy.

Had a dream where I was in world war 2 trench warfare, and was the only one without a gun. Everytime someone died, I would go to pick up their gun, but it would get lost in the mud.

Very frustrating.

Ive had that one!!
Although mine may have been due to playing COD 2

I have recurring dreams where I get beaten, cursed out, beaten some more and eventually smothered by the person I trusted and loved most. If I only had it once it would be better, but it happens 2 or 3 nights of the week. What the heck is going on in my subconscious anyway...

My dream wasnt bad as such, I tend not to have bad dreams really. Sign of my mind is just happy as it is ?

But anyways, there was a nuclear holocost, or the start of one, we we're told a nuke was coming to hit our area, me and my pa ran to hide behind some metal sheeting in the hope we could avoid it.
Nuke hit, vaporised everything including me, I watched my body disintergrate in the heat as i was lifted off the ground.

As my body was burnt away my spirit i guess just lifted up into the sky, then I woke up genuinely feeling that I was possibly dead. Damned strange experience if you ask me.

But other than that one dream, all my others are pretty random aren't bad enough to make me remember them or wake up in a sweat about it.
