Dream

I dreamt of an apocalypse coming but it wasn't like a zombie apocalypse it was like worms would invade someone's body through their mouth, their nose, their eyes, their ears and essentially like take over their body and try to attack you and I remember we were trying to cure them it was me and like four other people I only remember one of them being my friend I don't really remember the other few people but they were trying to attack us but we were also trying to help them because there was some way we could help them and I remember we helped two older ladies but like I could see from different perspectives of the different people and like they were being swarmed like there was this one guy who had to jump on top of a horde of people chasing him and trying to attack him and he had to jump on top of them and then out a window and then onto a balcony to escape them and I also remember we were going into a house after running away from them and we go into an elevator to try to get to our floor where our little lounge area is and two people are in the elevator with me and we're waiting on the other two but they're not coming fast enough so I'm like oh maybe we can take the other elevator because we need to go because like the horde was like coming towards the elevator door and so I press like close the elevator button um and the other two people are like what the fuck and they get out of the elevator and then I'm the only one in there and one of the little girl that I assume has a worm infection she comes in starts talking to me and I have to hold her against the elevator wall to make sure that I stay safe and I go up by myself and then once I get up there I start like barricading our area to make sure nobody gets in that's not supposed to be in and there's another time switch and I am I wake up on a roof and I guess I'm on the roof to kind of protect myself from like I expect they can't get up there with me the infected people and it starts raining and I woke up because there were worms in my mouth it's raining worms and blood and so I quickly get up and I go to jump off the roof so I can enter the house that I'm laying on and three women with the worm infection like bust out of the house and they start trying to come towards me but they all look really sad like they look cognizant and they're throwing up violently they're throwing up worms and they're trying to get it out of them but each one of them passes out and the last one passes out in my lap and I'm sitting there trying to help her but I don't know what to do

Building (Place)
Elevator
Number
Stuck

Dream

I was a construction worker at a factory, and their elevator was really slow. And there's eight levels to this factory. So we had to add labels to each floor, saying that it was under construction. Well, each sticker had a number. Started with 30, then 20 and then I was sent to the top floor to place the final sticker. And I like it up there I saw a giant crack in the floor right in front of the elevator so I turned to a worker and said "see this is your problem, but don't worry we'll fix it real soon, we just need to first remove all of this" then the workers sent back to me "don't worry math lovers be like" and then all of the workers jumped on the elevator platforms at the same time and all of it collapsed. So I pulled out a calculator and realized that all the numbers on the stickers added up to the number of employees. Then I realized I was now stuck on the 8th floor and then I woke up.

Dream

I dreamed I was a young boy seeking employment at a big company! I had to go through different phases in order to get the job. My last task was to assist people in the mall. I must have done well because the recruiter sent me on an elevator that lead me to the highest floor. I felt nervous because of how high it was. When I got to my floor. The elevator opened but instead of walking in, I had to crawl through the window one of the men who saw me had to help me. Then once I got in the began to question me. I was told I had the highest ranking score. The others heard this as well. Some began to get jealous. But I didn’t let the phase me. I was determined to succeed. Then the next scene I was in a classroom. There two split sections. I was on the left side. We had to answer some questions. And one boy answered wrong and the people began to laugh at him and he laughed at first but then he became embarrassed! A recruiter started rapping and carrying on. All in the boy face. I thought what kind of foolishness. But the dreamed ended with a recruiter tell the boy he can do whatever he desired. He just needed a mentor and to believe. The boy agreed to follow the recruiter lead. Then a light began to shine as he followed the recruiter through some doors.

Bathroom
Bikini
Mirror
Swimming Pool
Classroom
Elevator

Dream

I was at this place that had a nearby pool that I was always playing in, and eventually I went inside the place to eat lunch in their cafeteria. This was likely a school, and interesting enough it kind of resemble the cafeteria I used to attend in elementary school. I was somewhere else, and I came across a hairstylist that I know from my local area so we were vibing and in my mind I was thinking about the fact that this lady is always on her feet taking care of people’s hair I can’t imagine how her feet and legs might feel at the end of the day. Eventually laid down somewhere to get some rest, I thought to myself again while her and the other stylist are friendly but they are older and mature adults while I’m still a really young adult and have more maturing to do I wanted be mindful how I act and talk around them before I mess it up but I felt good knowing that the vibes were good and I didn’t do anything stupid. After getting out the pool and entering the cafeteria, while wearing a blue two piece bikini according the cafeteria and a bunch of others around sitting down, my body was dripping wet, wondering if I look hot in this bikini to others while feeling awkward because I was the only one who keeps going into the cafeteria after playing in the pool even though I wasn’t the only one playing in the pool so I tried not to feel too bad. That had multiple type of bathrooms with labels: “Women, Men, Disabled, Daughter.” I was confused when I seen daughter but I went straight to the women’s bathroom as I wasn’t sure if I should go to the daughter’s bathroom. After done, I got curious about the disabled bathroom and I think while being in there my body started acting funny as I washed my hands and tried to dry them off with a paper towel I was walking in front of the sink and that when my body spins a bit facing a mirror behind me. My hair is dyed brown in real life, but in the mirror my hair was black. I was in a classroom and a teacher was teaching a lesson and a situation happened where two students got kicked out the classroom for disciplinary issues, a girl I used to go to high school with asked us if anyone needed help when I responded with a friendly yes. I was honest about not getting a lot done at the moment, and that’s when she reminded me that it’s not good and I could get kicked out too if so in my mind I knew I was behaving unlike those other two students but if I’m not performing well academically then it’s understandable why I’d get kicked out the class. She then asked a question in regards of the work so I went on to answer her question. I was still new to the school so I didn’t expect anyone to know me, but I was in the bathroom again and there was a couple of teenage girls who knew who I was because they referred to me by my name and asked how did they know my name. That’s when they said that we’re the same age (even though I know I look like a child sometimes, I can tell that those girls were about 15-17 and younger) and that a staff gossips about us, so I guess I must’ve had a breakdown or something that was talked about because I’m quiet and I haven’t gotten into any trouble. After chatting with those girls I went on a elevator with them and a female staff asked how I’ve liked the cafeteria food which I replied it was good, she said she hopes it was enough since the cafeteria food is light and I thought to myself agreeing with her but also I don’t really eat much at home as I don’t get big appetites normally.

dream-about-elevator-adventures-with-doctor-who
Elevator
Mirror

Dream

I was doctor who. I was in a giant freight elevator that looked more like a room except for the control panel. This elevator was meant for moving people as there was furniture and lants inside. I was an elderly version of the doctor possibly the first (played by William Hartnell), with several companions most notably Susan, with her short dark hair. I don't think she was in the room with us. I remember hearing her voice as she told us how to get to where she was. We had pressed the floor we wanted to go to and the elevator began its descent, however it did not stop at our floor. I mentioned this to her and she said the elevator must be broken and that we needed to hit the brake button to stop the descent or we would all die. I asked her where it was and she told me it should be the last button on the bottom of the panel. I saw a brown button at the bottom and pushed it, but nothing happened. The button was down by my shins so I could not read it well. I'm going to have to get down on the floor to see this I complained to myself, and I lay down on my side. That's when I noticed the button I'd pushed though it was the bottom one, did not say brake, the one above it did. I hit the correct one now, and the elevator stopped. When I stood up, everything had changed. We were all dressed very colorful. And everyone was younger. I was younger. I had a bright red jacket with green trim. This was amazing - I was younger but had not regenerated. I was a younger version of this regeneration. I tested my body by touching my toes. I jogged over to a mirror and looked at my youthful appearance. I spoke and even sounded younger. I could actually join my companions on adventure - instead of merely being the cranky advisor. I briefly wondered to myself if I'd have the same authority though, now that I didn't look my years.

Hotel
Pool

Dream

I was in a really nice hotel for a convention event. I was down at the pool, meeting up with people I didn't know who were also attending the event, and getting ready to play some sort of card game, when David Tennant, dressed as Crowley from Good Omens, and Catherine Tate joined the group. Unfortunately, I had to leave just then because I had to drive back to my hometown to pick up my best friend who doesn't like driving outside of town. When we got back to the hotel, she hopped in the shower. I was wandering around the (very nice) room waiting for her to finish freshening up so that we could rejoin the pool group. I looked out the balcony after grabbing my personalprotection items -- a sonic buzzer and a pepper spray canister -- off of my backpack where they were hooked on. (The backpack was grey, and the sonic buzzer was a grey camo). There was a security officer for the event with a K-9 companion patrolling the catwalk right by my balcony, keeping an eye on the event. The K-9, and German Shepherd, gently got the officer's attention. I remember thinking he was very cute and sweet with his companion. He was asking if the dog was hungry, since it was the end of their shift. As the officer spoke with the dog as if I wasn't right there, I remember getting a really bad feeling. I looked at him thinking, "he's going to die, isn't he? This is when he's killed" He knelt down to be at eye level with his K-9 companion; he was petting him and cradling his face. I noticed a "thwip" sort of sound first, then the warm mist that hit, the way the officer just kind of froze up before collapsing from an angled gunshot wound to the head -- a sniper round. The K-9 looked around. My first thought was "grab your backpack so it doesn't get stained", but as I reached for the handle I realized it was now part of a crime scene and removing it for any reason would be tampering. Someone from the other end of the catwalk was talking. Asking questions about collateral damage? I hadn't really been listening. I told my friend to stay in the bathroom, do not open the door, as I pulled my cell from my back pocket and dialed 911. A man in a janitorial onesie stepped out from the catwalk with a sniper rifle at his side. I bolted for the elevator while I waited for the phone to connect. The shooter was talking to me now. All I remember was him saying something about speaking to the officer before, but the question ultimately was addressed to me (as i was now his next target, since I'd witnessed the assassination). "911. What's your emergency?" The elevator doors opened and I fell in. I started pressing the 'door close' button repeatedly. "I just witnessed a murder and the sniper is after me now. I need you to send help to the hotel or I'm going to die. I don't know what to do, where to hide...." The sniper stepped around the corner at the other end of the hallway. And then I woke up from a full body shiver.

School

Dream

I had a dream where I was In a place that seemed to be a mall, but there was sections to go and one of them was for school. When I had to go to school, I would go to all my classes but at end of each class, we would have to go out of the school section and into the plaza of the mall in the middle. And after we stayed there, we would have to go to an elevator and choose to go to a strange place. 2 towers and we were assigned to each be 2 teams and try to defend our towers. I wasn't playing but I did get attacked. There were times where i just walked out because there was stuff in my last period classrooms that I left behind accidentally. And anytime I came back, I had to catch up with my present period class with a handful of stuff. It made me feel stressed. There were randomly times throughout classes where we had to go to an elevator to go to some random country, like China, tagayaga, and Japan. And when we arrived, we would have to go to schools or a hotel to work. Those two were places we needed to go but someone suggested or wanted to go to China. But it was different from the other ones, they practiced some sort of martial arts outside with red and black tombs around them with Chinese decorations around. A teacher was teaching that class and when him and that student locked eyes, it was said that the person had to fight the teacher. Before they could fight, I was dragged back into the elevator by the other students to go back but had to leave the other student fighting the teacher in China. We had to go back to the tower teams and I made a mistake. Before i cluld get in trouble, the bell rang and that's when we were all being dismissed. But all of a sudden, I was in a nice white mansion with my mother, step dad, aunts and family there. I didnt recognize the place but i did with my family. While they were there, my mom was there telling my aunts something which left them shocked and looking concerned. When I tried to ask what happened, they looked at me but turned back. None of them told me and acted like I wasn't there. It left me worried and upset. That's when they all headed to the kitchen, covering my mom and that's when I saw one of them was holding a baseball bat with plastic around it. My step-dad and other family members stayed in the dining room while I peeked to the side of the wall to watch what's going on in the kitchen. The lights were off but that didn’t stop me from seeing what was going on. My mom had a big belly to indicate that she was pregnant, it looked all distorted and way too big to be just one. She wanted my aunt to swing the bat over against her belly, killing the baby inside her. The more my aunt hit, the more my mother's belly would deflate. The baby's feet would be shown from inside her belly, kicking and screaming out of pain. My mom cried and complained about the pain she felt when it kicked, and ordered for her to swing more. That's when she saw me and didn't even bother to explain. I asked what happened, but all she said was " I don't want it." And I was panicking so I just grabbed a bat too and started swinging it against her belly. It looked all red and swollen and it hurt to look at it. That's when I heard crying from a baby and I heard wet noises, that's when I ran out of the kitchen, closed my ears and covered my eyes. After a few minutes i opened them, her stomach still looked to be swollen and she just sat down in defeat. I kept asking her repeatedly but she wouldn't even answer me and it took me beg for her to tell me while there were family members surrounding her. She finally told me and said "who do you think?" I looked at my step-dad and i turned to see that she was staring too, making it aware that he was the father. I felt sick to my stomach and before my aunts could continue to punch her stomach, her belly started to stretch distortedly and ahd started screaming. I was scared that she was gonna die from giving birth and I tried to help and engage with her but all she did was ignore me and go to my step-dad. That's when my dream ended.
