Dream

I was in a big room full of people. It looks like a gathering. The principal of my school was there. In my backpack I had a big piece of fresh delicious bread. I decided to donate the bread to the gathering and a nun took it. I also decided to donate $10 and I keep to myself $55. The nun cut the bread in small but racional pieces, and seems like people were expecting to taste the delicious bread including me. While the nun was getting ready the bread plus other food. I stand up and decided to help to clean some dishes. At first I was looking to clean a big plate to put the bread on it. But I couldn’t find a plate that could fit the size of the bread. So I just clean other dishes but I feel like would be better if we put the big bread in a plate that fit its size.

In my dream I was sleeping in my bed with my cat next to me, and in my dream I woke up and heard my laundry door creak open and i looked over to see my cat (my only animal) sleeping next to me. And then I saw it slam shut. I went to run upstairs to my parents and some entity grabbed my legs to try and pull me back downstairs and I looked behind me and it was the nun character from the horror movie. And I kicked her to have her let go of me and ran upstairs to tell my parents and I wound up telling my dad that I was a medium that sees spirits and my dad didn’t believe me so I started crying and my mom said she was gonna go downstairs but I saw the nun entity at the bottom of the stairs and I screamed and stopped my mom from going downstairs and then both of my parents saw the door slam shut.

Dream

I had a dream my sister’s boyfriend , Derrick, had a church inside of his apartment complex. You had to pass it to leave his building. Me, and my nephews, Erik, and Elias, had spent the night with him and my sister, Amber. Before bed, Erik had went missing. Considering he had a history of running away, and being a curious kid, we figured that he had explored the place in his free time and must’ve gotten lost. So, me, Elias, Amber, and Derrick decided to check the church to see if he had been there. Halfway into the church, Elias said he didn’t want to look for him, because it started to bore him. He had been skeptical about the whole thing because Erik tends to play pranks. He then turned around, and skipped off. I chased after him up until we got to this gigantic door which led to the apartments. It had closed on us. Then, I realized that we’re all in big trouble. Something was off about this place. To begin with, it wasn’t an ordinary Church. It was abandoned in 1908. Yet it remained open to the public because it was a tourists attraction. The history behind it was bizarre, a posessed nun who had been in the building took her own life due to depression, and some say her spirit remains uneasy, and vindictive. Leeching onto humans, and sucking the life out of them to live the one she never had. I took Elias’s hand and ran towards Derrick and Amber, but something grabbed Elias. I don’t know what it was, but I couldn’t hold onto him much longer. I was alone, and scared. I kept running, even faster than before. I knew Amber and Derrick were in danger. But an instinct kicked in, I didn’t know exactly what. But, I knew that I too would be in the same position if I helped them. I ran out of the nearest exit in the church because there was more than one. I ran back to the apartment and slept the night. I couldn’t believe what happened, but it must’ve just been a bad dream. When I woke up in the morning, nobody was in the house. It was silent. I checked Amber’s location, to see if she had taken the boys to the store, or a local park. But, her location icon was blinking in the church, and disappeared. I rubbed my eyes, this can’t be. Then I received a text message from her, but surprisingly, it wasn’t blue. It was in black. “Time to repeat the cycle.” and all of the memories had flooded back to me about church. They were dead. They’re gone. Then I thought the nun, I did hear humming and singing in the church beforehand. But way before Erik went missing. It was her. I know it was.

Dream

My dream started out with me at a tourist attraction. I was walking around and taking pictures. Dream me was having fun there. After it closed, I went back home, but my house wasn’t there. Then I was like: “Oh, yeah, I still need to build my home base.” Why? Because my dream turned into a survival type game where you need to build everything yourself. After I finished building my base, my sister came to visit me. The two of us hung out before one of the guys from the tourist attraction came knocking at my door. He told me that I was in danger because there’s a bounty hunter chasing after me. Apparently, the hunter is a highly advanced robot that appears to be human and uses she/her pronouns. Upon hearing this, I start setting up traps for her, but she destroys my home base before I could finish. After seeing the amount of power she has, my sister and I run away. We go our separate ways and I eventually come across a bunch of cartoon characters. There were characters from Avatar: The Last Airbender, Steven Universe, and Scooby Doo. Together, we go on an adventure that ends with us forming a giant key in the clouds. After we got the key, we use it open a door to a building in the middle of the desert. We go inside and see that the building is actually an indoor water park. We walk around for a bit until that robot from earlier comes out of nowhere and attacks me. My cartoon friends were able to stop her and throw her in the water, causing her to malfunction and break. I thank them and decide to leave. I decided to act like none of this ever happened. So, I head to my old high school building and start acting like I’m a student there. Everything was going great, I had friends, my sister was there, and I even got a boyfriend! But, everything changed when I got on the school bus. I noticed that my bus driver was everywhere, like she had cloned herself. I also noticed that the other bus drivers, from the other buses, where all invisible. Once my bus driver took a wrong turn, I realized something was wrong. So, I jumped out of the bus window and ran away. While running away, I came across my sister, a nun, and a young boy who claimed to be the nun’s son. The 4 of us started to who knows where, when we came across a bunch of flower buds. (Flowers that hadn’t bloomed yet.) We picked them up and decide to plant them. While planting them, the Joker from Batman starts driving towards us in his green and purple car. My sister and I hide, while the Joker threatens the young boy. I go to get a weapon so that I can defeat him, and he starts threatening my sister. I run over and punch him in an attempt to save my sister. Then I was like: “Remember me?” and I glare at him. Before anything else could happen though, my alarm goes off and I wake up, ending the dream early.

Dream

I lived right next to a subway station underground me and my mom live there. We were extremely poor. We had this really old couch, but it looks like the one that we have now and it was haunted or possessed. I just remember I kept seeing this entity and my mom thought I was going crazy because I was the only one seeing this thing. I don’t remember much of what happened in the stream, but I do remember the entity repeatedly trying to possess me and attach itself to me. I remember the entity, saying it had a sister that it was trying to help. But I didn’t believe a thing the entity was saying because it was trying to possess me for its own good. This entity looks like one of those really scary nuns out of those horror movies. It really freaked me out I almost thought it was real for a second. I remember holding something that one of the entities was possessing and I grabbed my evil eye looked at it for a second had the evil eye pointed away, and when I felt like the entity was looking away, I grabbed its attention “hey! you missed something”. And when I felt that it was looking back, I turned my evil eye to make it face the object the entity was possessing then I said “gotcha bitch”. I remember holding the possessed object and feeling it shake violently. I tried my best to hold it still so the evil eye could do its thing, but I did manage to get it to work. Once the entities were gone, I disposed properly of the evil eye knowing that its job was also done I think I might’ve buried it somewhere but I don’t remember where, I remember coming back home and my mom was saying saying she was really worried about me because I was gone for so long but I was there the entire time which made me confused, but she was happy that I got rid of the negative entities out of the house. I told her she should get rid of her couch, so nothing like that happens again because I knew that couch was causing something it was like a portal, and she hesitated at first, but she knew it was the right thing to do so she decided she was going to get a new couch the following week with what money she had left. I remember going to bed and hearing my mom in the other room saying “I can’t believe I have to get a new couch. It’s going to be so expensive“. Then I remember flopping in my bed and falling asleep. when I woke up, I woke up in the waking world.
