Dream

In the dream there was life as it was, and then an alternate timeline named 'death' in the dream. I was content with life as it was, but then I remembered that I when had this dream before, and I accidentally found my way to the death timeline. I decided to try and remember how I did it. I basically held my breath in the bathtub, and went under the water. There I found myself in the other timeline. This timeline had clear and defined 'stages' to 'life', as I witnessed in someone else for the first time. First, when you're about 30 years old, you find the love of your life and your sex drive increases tremendously. Secondly, sometime a long the way, your head gets chopped clean off, but you keep living with a neck stump. Third and fourth are hazy to remember, but I think it's something about trying your best to improve your wrongdoings and/or improve your physical appearance. Finally, there's death, and here it's usually gruesome and unforgiving, matters the life you've lived. I watched as my 'partner', that I didn't know well, lived a full life, and had a death ceremony. The death ceremony basically includes all family and friends being at the home when death decided to come, and take their life. This includes fire, liquidation, compression to death, etc. As soon as my partner died, I woke up back into my 'normal' life universe. My mom somehow found out about my 'adventure' as she told me to not spend too long in the other universe, as I may not find be able to find my way back. Or worse, I may be unable to distinguish between the realities. We had a family gathering, and my rich uncle from another country (who doesn't exist in real life) is apparently the head of the family. He found out that I'm going between dimensions and cruelly ordered me to stay in there for an indefinite amount of time. Everyone tried to half-ass revolt but wasn't able to change his mind. At the end, I stood up, and speed-walked towards him and started cursing, saying that I will end his life if I did so. As soon as I reached him, his living figure was replaced by a bottle with ashes inside. I blinked and backed away as I saw my mom in awe try to move her way between him and me. As soon as I stepped back, he turned normal again, looking like a human. It seems the closer I got to him in that moment, the more his life fast forwarded in my eyes. I took a few other steps back and he became back to normal again, even though I still had hate and fury in my eyes. He still had his smug grin, but had a touch of fear in his eyes. He ordered everyone to step away from me, and I fled to the bathroom. As soon as I opened the bathroom door, I was grabbed by my hair, and thrown into the bathroom. I seemed to have been thrown into the other dimension again by someone else. I didn't recognize this person, nor where I was. But the uncle seemed to have appeared behind me near the door. Though I was upset, he cooled me down and asked for a chat. I agreed, and he walked with me, and told the other guy I would only be a minute. He said he knew about how dangerous this place was, and how I was bound not to listen, because he knew how curious my soul was. He said that even though I may feel somewhat safe here, that I shouldn't trust the feeling. And the more that I 'experience' this dimension, the worse I would be able to tell, in the future, which world I was actually in, and that they may fuse together indefinitely, and I will go mad. Of course I heeded this information, but it wasn't enough to stop me unfortunately. I visited this dimension enough that I wasn't able to, nor did I have the will to, find my way back to my 'normal' dimension. I lived in the 'death' dimension for years. I saw my grandma (who died in real life in 2018 from multiple sclerosis) die, again, and I was sad for how much pain she probably was in, even though I believed she didn't deserve it. I saw multiple 'partners' pass before I even knew their names. And at the last stretch, I found myself with a 'friend' at work, who has brain damage. We barely talk much, but we still talk. We found ourselves trying to get out of this place, when a correctional officer stopped her. She pleaded that they had the wrong person, and screamed that she was with me, but I couldn't get my mouth to say that I was with her, nor were they listening. I was desperately trying to find the door that I came in from so many years ago, while she's inevitably distracting the officers. At the end I feel bad I was using her for bait, and it made my heart ache, but it was the only thing I could do so that they weren't on my tail too. At least I was better at hiding, I said to myself. -- Many times in the dream, I don't remember exactly where, there were sex scenes with these 'partners'. Headless or not. Also there was a time that the death ceremony was happening in my grandparents house for my grandma, and I was trying to park my car in the back where it wouldn't catch fire, as there was an eternal fire in the backyard.

Dream

I dreamt that I was Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz and there was a person that took off all the people's heads and turned them into statues and then I went into her castle and she was asleep. All of a sudden I tiptoed and there was a man with the key and I opened one door without the key and I found glasses in an empty opening mirror door so I took them put them on and walked up the steps. It was so quiet. All of a sudden there were chickens and the man that gave me the glasses said be quiet. These chickens are laying eggs and they're switching places. They were guarding the gate that we needed to get through. So we got a flashlight and shined it on the chickens and they went berserk. So we got the key into the gate and it opened. So we went into the gate of the building, shut the gate quietly and locked it and the chickens didn't enter. We quickly entered towards her room. The guys that gave me the keys said I cannot come up. It's way too dangerous for me. I went up to her desk / room more pictures of my family on my dad's side even my cousins Chris, Kirsten, Louis and Brandy which was on her desk was pictures of me when I was young pictures of my father and his father my father died So did his father, which makes it my grandpa. So it was weird to see them. Well, not see them, but see pictures of them with me. It was different and cool at the same time.

Dream

I was working at an escape room place at the front desk. (I’ve never been to an escape room before) One day I went for a walk up a hill near where I lived in the dream and I had someone with me, but I can’t remember who it was, but we ended up sitting down on a picnic table at the top of the hill with a big tree next to the table. while we were sitting there I turned around towards the path up the hill, and there was a small girl in a purple dress with white mesh over it making her look ghostly. Her head was hidden from view behind a big branch so she looked headless, I screamed. But then her parents came up behind her and she came forward so I could now see her head she looked to be about 3 years old. They sat down at the table and we started talking, the little girl was running around and ended up smacking into the table. I went to check on her, but she was completely fine, she jumped back up and started running around again. As I made my way back to sit down my foot sunk into the ground next to the tree, when I pulled back from the hole the mother of the little girl came up and reached into the hole. She pulled up the dead body of the little girl that was running around. The mother pushed the dead child back into the hole and told me not to let the little girl see it, just then the little girl ran up to us and fell into the hole! I grab the girl and pulled her back up as quickly as I could and gave her to her father. We buried the dead body again and I found out the the little girl’s parents were her adopted parents and that they found her somewhere, it was all extremely strange. When I went back to work they next day I told my coworkers what had happened the day before on the hill and while I was telling them I realized that there was also a 4 year old boy that was there playing with the 3 year old girl. I then questioned myself if I dreamed the whole thing, but didn’t say that to my coworkers. After the day was over I was about to lock up when I heard people talking in one of the escape rooms and I got I strong feeling of danger and an urge to leave immediately, but I ignored it and went back to the desk and continued to tidy up before I closed for the day. A few seconds later three teenaged boys came out from one of the rooms and kidnapped me. One of the boys were my age 17 and the other two were younger than me, I did not feel threatened at all. I ended up talking to them and said that I would “never” run away (I totally would) the boy that was my age told me I couldn’t banish anyone either. As if I ever had that kind of power, and I told him as much that I can’t banish anyone. Just then another kidnapper showed up this one was big and mean he was older then all of us, I then said that if I could banish someone it would be the big mean one, all the other boys agreed. After a few hours two other girls were kidnapped and then that night I took them and escaped we ran down a hill, we then came across a house with a lot of windows. Through the windows on the bottom floor we could see a mother dancing with her daughters, she saw us running by and came up to the window held up her hand making then sign for phone with her hand and mouthed the words 9-1-1. We immediately agree one of the girls started crying with relief, I felt like crying to and I repeated back to the mother “yes 9-1-1” she called them and went back farther inside and me and the two other girls continued running, we ended up getting caught again but rescued soon after by the police showing up because of the mother calling them. I’m pretty sure I fell in love with the boy that was my age even while being captive even though he was my kidnapper..

Nightmare

Dream

There I was. Impaled through my stomach and out by back by one of the needles that was sitting at the bottom of this abyss I was knocked into that now has my blood dripping on it covering it in my blood. My limbs are twitching as I'm stuck around the needle point as my body is unable to go further down towards the bottom. My eyes pour blood the same time my mouth is throwing it up. I saw from a different perspective this time. This time I'm looking up at myself. But as bad as it is it couldn't possibly get any worse. That was a lie. Sooner than later I see a train falling right above me. And at the right moment, I woke up. I rose up quickly dripping in sweat and tears looking like I just been baptized. I found myself clenching my pajama shirt in between my stomach and my chest where there was excruciating pain. But it was only a nightmare. So why am I having this pain? This feeling was familiar to me… could this be another one of my prophetic dreams? If it was than I need to figure out what it means. Quickly. I laid back down questioning myself. How did I end up in that situation? Well let me tell you. I'm standing in front of an abyss. In between this large rigid train track that goes across this petrifying hole that leads to another side. I tried to run to the other side of this abyss but I gave up to the thought that it wasn't going to end. I closed my eyes and I somehow ended up in the same spot to begin with. “this place seems scarcely familiar..” I whispered to myself afraid that I would attract unwanted attention. I examine the place trying to look for certain things that could possibly ring a bell so that I can remember where I am and how to escape. And this is what I see. I looked in front of me and there is a train track that has no support holding it up above or below. I looked down and I saw a corpse lying on the train track where its ‘used to be’ head was. When I looked over to where the rest of its rotted head has been scattered to, I get startled to the sight and jerked backwards falling having tripped on the boards of the track. My hands start to shake like they were having a seizure and my heart was already starting to beat up against my ribs trying to escape and leave me making my breathing pattern irregular. Soon I get up and back away quickly from it and turn around ready to run away from this place like a headless chicken. But alas I am stopped by a brick wall that was infinity high. I immediately run to get around it but the deeper I got thee more ominous that place got. I started to feel my tear ducks fill with salty water as I become frustrated and terrified I was with this place. I close my eyes to release the tears and found myself right back in the middle of the train tracks. I continued to keep looking around and I eventually see an old abandoned gas station with one street light flickering and shining over a figure that would sometimes appear under the light and a sign written in blood, ‘Only the true special ones make it home this way’. I tensed up at the sign as another dead corpse lying on the side of the sign. I felt offended by the sign saying ‘only the special ones’ due to my narcissistic side. It was like it was taunting me saying I wasn't. But I am special! “What makes me different from the people that survived?” the next thing I knew, I see a train coming right for me on the tracks right when I began to start hoping on the boards. Still on land I watch as the train speeds my way as I stood there as numb as a block of wood. But right as it seemed it was about to hit me, I stupidly cross my arms in front my face and lower myself into a stance ready to accept my fate. My eyes teared at the thought, ‘Maybe I'm not special…?’. I closed my eyes tight enough it felt like my eyes were being pushed in by the lids of them. I stood there and opened my eyes hesitantly expecting a harsh impact, I felt nothing but strong wind. I stayed in that position for another half a second before fully opening my eyes with confusion. I could see the train around me as I went through it. “ghost train..?” I asked quietly before falling to my knees as the winds stopped holding me up. After another second I stand up again from my knees regaining my confidence despite this ungodly place and ignoring the fact that something was waiting for me on the other side. I begin hoping on the boards risking my life with each hop. It wasn't until I get to the middle of the huge abyss where I missed a step and fell in between the boards. I immediate reflex was to hold on to something so I don't fall in. I grasped onto one of the boards that was thankfully not far away. I couldn't bring myself back up due to the many trains that were passing by and possibly knocking me off the track, so I had to reach to the next board like I was playing on monkey bars. Once I finally reached the end of the abyss, I climbed up onto the land and unlike the other side I felt grass in the ground so I knew I was making ok progress. Still being the darkest, gloomiest and most ominous place I've ever seen in my life, I am still cautious to this new sight. I stood up facing a forest with very tall thin grayish brown trees with dull grass. As I stood up as silent as a white rabbit hiding from its prey, I observed the forest regretting having gone over here. Until I heard a faint whisper and rustling leaves behind me. I ran. I ran as fast as I could. I tuned around to see if I've gotten far from whatever that was, but it turned out I didn't get far at all. I stopped trying to run and stood looking behind me. Nothing. I figured I could continue finding my way through this forest but as soon as I turned around I meet this thing with a safe for a head wrapped in thorns and an apron covered in dirt and blood along with its hammer covered in mud blood and other disgusting fluids you could ever think of. It already had its weapon held up high as I stood there and before I could process the moment, he swung his hammer and I fell in the abyss. I'm falling and paralyzed and afraid. This is where I've met my wits end. Even though I can not move or scream and cry bloody murder for help, I can still feel this pain that has impacted me. It felt like someone dropped a wreaking ball wrapped in sharp wires cutting open my skin while releasing its disease through my sore body. It felt like someone injected a poison in me that also had small crystals inside of the killing substance just to tear me apart on the inside as much as it is on the outside. As I'm falling the river of tears, blood, and a black tar like substance flow out of my eyes, nose and mouth. I see all the lost souls, dead bodies, blood, and organs spread out everywhere. My perspective changed in this dream changed so that I could see myself falling from a distance. I see that as I fall I managed to turn over facing the ground. The perspective changed again and now I see that my face has gone pale and I could feel my heart giving up and my eyes changing to a cloudy gray. And there I was. Impaled through my stomach and out by back by one of the sharpest infectious needles that was sitting at the bottom of this abyss I was knocked into. My limbs are twitching as I'm stuck around the needle point as my body is unable to go further down towards the bottom. My eyes pour blood the same time my mouth is throwing it up. I could still see from a different perspective this time. This time I'm looking up at myself and the train falling right over me behind me. The fastest second went by and the train finally fell on me. Scattering my insides out. Squirting all the fluids out my body. And splitting me in half due to the pressure put on my body while still on the needle like a kebab.
