A house I keep seeing [OC]

2026-06-25T00:01:50+00:00

I keep going back to a snowy little house. Always nighttime, always alone. OC 20x20” oil on canvas.

Had a dream about a GIANT wolf spider named Maria

2026-06-25T12:10:21+00:00

Maria lived in my house and crawled out of the back of my closet one day and introduced herself. She was literally the size of a pug and she acted basically like a dog too. She did tricks and I gave her treats. One day she announced she wanted to have babies and if you know anything about wolf spiders, they carry their babies on their backs. So I told her she could absolutely not have babies in the house, she had to go outside to have her babies and they couldn't come back inside with her until they were grown. She became an outside spider and played with the neighbor's literal pugs all day long. The neighbor thought she was my actual dog and complimented the fact she never barked.

I dreamt about burn marks under my kitchen wallpaper that were actually there.

2026-06-25T04:15:45+00:00

Okay I’m writing this from my laptop at the kitchen island while my husband is asleep upstairs. It is 2:26 AM, and I’m honestly just too afraid to close my eyes tonight. I need to get this out because if I keep repeating it in my head, I’m going to start convincing myself I’m losing my grip.

We just bought our first house last month. It’s an older place, built sometime in the mid-eighties, and it definitely needs a lot of love. The kitchen had this incredibly ugly, outdated yellow-and-green floral wallpaper that looked like it hadn't been touched in forty years.

Last Saturday night, I had a horrible, vivid nightmare. In the dream, I woke up to a faint popping sound, walked down the stairs, and stepped into the kitchen. The floral wallpaper was gone. The drywall was completely bare, ruined, and covered in thick, black soot. There was a huge, deep scorch mark stretching from the back of the stove all the way up to the ceiling, shaped like a jagged, messy V. In the dream, the smell of burnt plastic and copper was so suffocating that I woke up gasping for air, clutching my throat.

The dream felt so heavy that it ruined my whole morning. I even mentioned it to my husband over coffee, joking that my subconscious was clearly stressed out about our mounting renovation debt. He laughed, kissed my forehead, and told me to take a break from the DIY blogs.

Cut to this afternoon. We finally got around to scraping off that awful wallpaper.

We started right by the stove. I was using a plastic putty knife to peel back a huge, stubborn section of the paper that we had soaked in water. As the sheet finally gave way and curled down toward the floor, my breath completely caught in my chest.

The drywall underneath wasn't white. It was charcoal black.

I think my husband said something to me, but I didn't hear him. I just started frantically clawing at the damp paper with my bare hands, ripping off chunks of it around the stovetop area.

There it was. A massive, deep scorch mark stretching from the outlet behind the stove straight up to the ceiling. It was a perfect, jagged V-shape. Almost exactly like the nightmare. When I leaned in close, the faint, chemical smell of old, burnt wires hit my nose.

It seems like the previous owners had had a serious electrical fire years ago, never properly replaced the damaged drywall, and just plastered the thick floral wallpaper right over the burn marks to hide it before listing the house.

Look, I know there is a completely logical, mundane explanation for the house having a history of property damage. People hide things from home inspectors all the time. But how did I see the exact, specific shape of the soot through the layers of paper days before we ever touched the walls? How did my brain perfectly render a hidden history of a room I had only lived in for three weeks?

I can’t shake the feeling that time isn't as linear as we think it is, and my brain somehow loaded the wrong layer of the house while I was sleeping. I keep looking at the rest of the walls in this place, terrified of what else might be hiding under the paint that I haven't dreamed about yet.

As I said before, I don't think I can even try to fall asleep right now. So I'm gonna try to figure out how I dreamed of what I believe is the history of this house's kitchen walls.

Have you ever talked to the people in your dreams? And what did it sound like.

I had a false awakening loop last night and it was harrowing

2026-06-25T02:37:37+00:00

I typically just have silly nonsense dreams, but last night I experienced something that really disturbed me so I just felt like sharing. I really think it might've been the most awful dream I've had in my life.

It doesnt happen to me very often, but when I have a false awakening (thinking you wake up but are still dreaming), it makes the next dream and sequence feel even more real, often more vivid, and sometimes it can be a rare trigger for me to get lucid.

Every dream I had in the loop I found myself in horrifying and helpless situations, I was also hearing disturbing voices throughout, and I had the sense that some kind of force was putting me through this to make me suffer.. these are not things I normally think about, so it was really scary

One loop I was in what felt like a pitch black cave crevice, it felt deep underground, complete absence of light, dank and cool, and so tight I could barely move. As I was laying there stuck and helpless, I felt some sort of creature looming right above me, it dripped something on my face. I panicked and "woke up".

When I believed I woke up, I found myself in sort of a dark tent. Not like a camping tent, but more like a makeshift divided tent you'd find in a refuge camp or something. There was someone else there who I didnt know, I didn't entirely trust or distrust them, but they still felt like the only person I had in that moment. Went right back to another dream

The next I was laying in a pile of the most disgusting squalor imaginable, like decomposing bodies, blood, shit, guts, pink goop, whatever.. literally insane... I was among this filth, and I felt like I was trying to get up but couldnt. My limbs just didnt work, so I was there just flopping around in the worst thing you could possibly imagine

Again woke up in the same tent. I was panting and struggling to catch my breath. I said/thought "thank god that was just a dream" then I told the person who was there "Something's terribly wrong and we need to get out of here"

Slipped into another dream. This time I was in some brutal uninhabitable arctic place. Think like white out conditions, and really nothing to be seen in any direction besides snow, ice and wind.. basically a blizard in Antarctica. There were 2 groups of people there, one group defied gravity and they jumped to some ledge that apparently would be the way to safety. I was left laying on the snow, and there were a couple other people around me. I had this grappling hook that I felt I needed to use to get up there, but I dropped it, and it fell into the snow and just sunk. I could see a hole going into the snow where it fell for miles. I tried to crawl toward the others, but I realized any movement I made would make me sink more into this infinite snow. I was just laying there trying to like shimmy, but I just buried myself and sunk more if I moved. Then I heard this extremely unsettling, ethereal, woman's voice come from behind me, idk if she was physically there or not because I didnt look back. I don't fully know the meaning, but this phrase was still word for word in my mind when I woke up "My eyes are dead. I dont need them. MOVE"

Another wtf moment that caused me to wake up within the dream again. I was still in the tent, but this time I got up and walked out. The tent led into what seemed like some sort of laboratory. It was dark, and any light I was this extremely bold and intense purplish blue/indigo, it was like a color I've never seen before. In that moment, I realized "Im still in a dream" and I had a moment of lucidity. I didn't really know what to do, so I tried to float, but I just jumped and landed with full gravity. Then... I FINALLY woke up for real

I laid there for a minute questioning if I was even awake. I was so disturbed by that sequence that I almost just felt numb. I wasnt crying, but my eyes started watering. The looping really solidifies how real it feels, and how disorienting it is.

It was so out of the ordinary, but I know I fell asleep on my back which I normally don't.. that always makes me dream more. I also had a really stuffy nose last night so I think it was kinda screwing with my breathing. Anyway, appreciate it if anyone read that. I just wanted to share and am down to discuss whatever you want.. questions, thoughts, similar experiences, etc

What if Earth escaped the Solar System and never stopped falling?

2026-06-25T06:07:40+00:00

I rarely remember dreams. But years ago, I had one that never left me. I still think about it sometimes when I look at the night sky.

In the dream, Earth slowly drifted away from the Sun. Not suddenly and nobody knew why. Not because of an asteroid, aliens, or some disaster movie plot. No war. No explanation. The planet simply began to leave.

At first, the change was almost invisible and nobody noticed. Then Antarctica started growing. And winters lasted longer. Then the ice expanded year after year, swallowing coastlines, cities, entire countries. The southern oceans froze. The seasons stopped making sense. Human civilization adapted the way it always does. We built domes. Underground cities. Artificial suns.

Scientists eventually realized the truth:
Earth was no longer orbiting the Sun.
Humanity spent decades adapting. Desperate attempts to survive.

But the thing I remember most wasn’t the cold. It was the sky. It was watching the Sun shrink. Every year the Sun looked a little smaller. A little weaker. A little farther away.

The thing that had watched over every human being who had ever lived was slowly abandoning us. And for the first time in human history, nobody could point to where “home” was.

Eventually, Earth escaped the Sun’s gravity entirely. The Sun vanished into the darkness. Then the dream became stranger.

Earth wasn’t drifting through space.
It was falling. That was the moment I remember most.

Not toward a planet.
Not toward a star.
Not toward a black hole.
Just… down.
As if the universe itself had a direction. As if every star, every galaxy, every civilization was slowly falling toward something hidden in the dark.

Just a crushing realization:
Humanity had become an orphan species.

I remember standing on an endless frozen plain, looking up at a sky without a Sun. And realizing something terrifying:
Maybe the universe had always been falling. And nobody knew what was at the bottom. Maybe we only noticed because we finally lost everything that made us feel still.

If this were the premise of a sci-fi film, would you watch it? And If you were writing this film, what do you think is waiting at the bottom?

2026-06-25T11:32:55+00:00

Haven't gotten much sleep lately, everytime I sleep this is what I see, it's just darkness and then this appears, I can't look away and everytime I wake up I throw myself out of bed, the first day I dreamt about it I felt a sharp pain in my left arm as I had been clawn in the dream, I looked back and there it was, eyes moving looking all over me, when I woke up I had the the claw mark on my left arm, it's been driving me insane, someone that knows anything about dreams that can tell me about why this is recurring.

A King frog breathed on me until I woke up?

2026-06-25T01:44:05+00:00

I can’t even think of a longer explanation, the nightmare was this:

(Partially in control) I was walking in a cave, precisely as if I were underground in a quarry, before entering some sort of main hall; a big empty room, with nothing but me and this ginormous frog, that had a crown on it’s head. I wasn’t expecting it to turn into a nightmare, but it did. This massive frog comes hopping and stepping towards me. As I try to back myself up, it’s like my limbs just give out, forcing me to literally just flop on the floor and roll around. I was trying to look at what was coming towards me; this big ugly frog, but all I can HEAR is this disgusting heavy breathing, no rumbles from the hops, nothing; just heavy, strenuous breaths. You know when you’re waiting to be scared in a dream so you’ll wake up? That’s what I was waiting for, sort of just cowering and waiting to be eaten or something but this King frog. Then, I sort of notice that my surroundings turn into my bedroom, slowly, then the breathing stops. I just.. awoke? Without knowing?

What the fuck was this dream and why is it so embedded in my mind?

Also, I woke up from a dream last night, mid air, like I awoke to me falling into my bed as if I’ve been dropped from the ceiling, what the fuck is that about?

i keep having dreams about men even tho i’m mostly gay

2026-06-25T06:26:06+00:00

lately since i’ve stopped smoking weed i’ve been getting dreams again and i’ve been dreaming about men. i’m (f20) and i mostly genuinely like women even though i’ve never been in a relationship w anyone before. i’ve tried hooking up w men in the past and it always felt wrong and disgusting/unfulfilling and i just wanted them to like me.

but i’ve been leaning more into my gayness (mentally) and consuming more lesbian media and it’s great and i’m happier. but still as lonely and companion-less as ever. i do sometimes listen to male audios bc visual corn is too much sometimes and i like to use my imagination. i haven’t found any good female audio creators, but even so im tired of listening to that too, the audios were something i used to want when i was younger but i want a real connection/relationship now. and i want it to be genuine and fulfilling (most likely w a woman).

but i’ve been having dreams about having a crush on or being in a relationship with men and idk why?? like what is my subconscious mind saying?? am i just revisiting old memories? in the dreams it feels good to be wanted and cared about and have a connection. it always feels nice to feel love, even in a dream.

idk can a good dream interpreter conceptualize this and derive some meaning from it? p.s i don’t need a man or anyone telling me im secretly straight bc i’ve done years of inner work and i know my past and my body so that’s simply not true for me. thx

My Wolf dream.

2026-06-25T09:18:13+00:00

A couple of years ago (3 - 4), I had a dream that was so vivid that I don't think I'll ever forget it. The image I created captures the dream as best as I can remember. In the dream, the wolf was the same size as me, and she—yes, she—was standing beside me. She appeared more transparent, almost ghost-like. I used AI to generate the image.

I would be interested to hear other people's thoughts on this.

A very furreal dream meme…

2026-06-25T11:26:12+00:00

Hi! New poster to the Dreams subreddit, but I had my first super surreal meme that I can truly say left me completely confused. I’ve always wanted one of those dreams where I create a meme. Except I cannot make sense of it.

For context, it’s VERY HOT in the UK right now, so I’m barely sleeping and have been taking morning naps when it’s cooler before work. So the sofa (or couch for your couch-inclined folk) has been my domain for a few days.

This dream felt like a dream within a dream to start with, which as all those who have had one, can attest to it being very disorienting.

In said dream, I was on the sofa, sleepy as I have been. My speech was slurred and it was sweltering. Like tropical ass heat. I didn’t seem too worried about this clear sign of severe heatstroke so let’s not focus too much on that.

The layout was exactly like my current front room, only a bit darker. And in my sleep-dazed, heat-addled state, I managed to sit myself up from the sofa in the dream, and found myself looking at a large sticker sheet. Covered in various memes of the cat variety.

One in particular caught my attention. I was laughing. HEARTILY CHORTLING at this stupid cat meme. Now in my actual awake state, I cannot make sense of it and the absurdity of the meme is what is so funny about it now.

Back to dream - I desperately wanted to give this cat meme sticker to my mum, who is sat at the work-from-home station currently in awake world AND in the dream. So I stumble over and stick the sticker to my forehead to show her. She also laughs, but mentions something about a song. The meme had no trace of a song so I removed the sticker in confusion to study it further. It was no longer the meme. It* *was a scientific diagram depicting different species and subspecies of prehistoric cat.

The meme could no longer be located.

That’s when I forced myself to wake up because the lack of meme made me even more incoherent and dizzy. Like my life force relied on this meme.

Anyway, I’ve attached a recreation of the meme.

Avid dream decoders and fellow cat aficionados: what the living fuck does this mean?

My recurring nightmare finally changed after almost 14 years.

2026-06-25T06:12:11+00:00

For almost 14 years, I’ve had a recurring dream. It wasn’t the exact same dream every time, but it always carried the same story. After having it so many times, I could recognize where it was headed before anything even happened.

No matter the setting, an old house, an abandoned building, a school, an office, a bank, I would always sense that something was coming. Danger. People. I just knew.

Every time, I would start warning everyone around me. I’d tell them to hide, to run, to save themselves. Sometimes I’d wake my family up. Sometimes I’d throw my little sister over a fence to get her to safety before hiding myself. Sometimes I’d hide in a closet hoping they wouldn’t find me. Sometimes I’d see people get hurt. Sometimes I was the one getting hurt. Sometimes I froze completely. The details changed, but the feeling never did.

The dream would come back every few months, and because it started when I was so young, I became terrified of going to sleep. My Christian mom used to have me put a Bible under my pillow because I’d wake up sweating after these dreams.

I’m 24 now, and over the past year and a half I’ve been doing a lot of inner work. Learning to regulate my nervous system. Understanding my past. Setting boundaries. Healing. Deconstructing. Walking away from things that no longer fit. I never really knew if any of it was changing anything deep inside me.

Then, a few nights ago, the dream came back.

I sensed the danger again. I knew something was coming. I warned everyone around me. I hid my grandma somewhere safe because I knew she couldn’t run with us.

But this time… I ran out of the building.

For the first time in almost 14 years, I never saw the danger.

Instead, there were police officers already outside guiding people to safety. There was a shelter waiting for us. There were children being carried somewhere safe. For the first time, I didn’t have to save everyone by myself.

For the first time… I was helped.

That was when I realized something had actually shifted. The danger was still there. I still sensed it. But the ending was different.

No one really knew about these dreams except my mom because they scared me so much growing up. I guess I’m sharing this now because, after almost 14 years, I think something deep inside me has finally changed.

Little me carried those dreams alone for a very long time. This time, she made it out.

I had a dream where my family were angry to my partners

2026-06-25T13:32:05+00:00

In this dream, we had to watch my niece but in the dream my MIL decided 15 minutes before the time she was supposed to be there it would’ve been the perfect time for the pool and to use my sisters account.

We get there and after calling my sister, she rightfully so asks why are we not there. On the way to the care I don’t yell but I make it known I’m not happy towards my partner. Not because of the pool but who thought it would’ve been a good idea for us to do this. After rushing home we let them inside. My mother and sister begin to chastise and berate my MIL and my partner and I did was stand outside waiting for it to end.

After awhile my partner came out and said I owed her an apology for how I acted towards her and I refused. She said the way I acted towards her was not necessary and that my mom made her mother feel worse than she already had.

After that it kinda faded in and out. The last bit was my MIL trying to apologize to me for thinking it had been a good idea and not charging her phone.

Is there a deeper meaning to all of this or is it base level?

Ethereal golden dragon eldritch horror

2026-06-25T09:29:40+00:00

So, I'm not here to ask for meaning or anything like that, just had this dream that stuck with me cause it was such a cool visual imo, but I don't remember much of the dream overall. Basically, I was walking with someone on the edge of a coastal city, then these two giant, ethereal golden dragons that were intertwined to look like an infinity symbol started floating down. The dragons "pulsed" or "exploded" and were replaced by a similarly ethereal and glowing golden wrap of rope or something (It was slightly evocative of the biblically accurate angel look, but not exactly) which proceeded to also do the "pulse"/"explosion" thing and shifted back into the dragons. Everytime it did the "pulse"/"explosion" and shifted between the dragons and rope thing, it got lower, closer to the water, and as it got right above the water, both the rope and the dragons were there simultaneously and gold dust started floating down off of them. Me and the people around me started running, but the gold dust filled the area and everyone suddenly had their bodies contort; not in any unnatural or exceedingly painful ways, just into strange poses, such as the woman I was walking with bent over at the waist with one arm sticking straight up, one arm sticking out sideways, and her legs splayed in a half split (assumedly I was also in a weird pose, but I'm not sure since it was all first person). The next night, I had another dream about some kind of eldritch entity/presence that was causing people to do weird stuff in various "zones", but I don't remember much about that one. Overall, it was an exciting dream (I don't really experience fear in dreams), and I wanted to share it cause the visual is stuck in my head.

I need help

2026-06-25T09:06:33+00:00

I don't know who's reading this but if you can answer that'd be great. For years I've had this reoccurring dream about this girl, I call her bakery girl. In the dream I'm always on this strip/pier thing, I know I'm looking for her even the first time I had the dream, I walk into the bakery and there's this beautiful girl, brown hair, brown eyes, we always talk then go through a back door and end up at a ocean with a big rock, we always sit on the rock and have a deep conversation, and we kiss then I wake up, I never get to know what happens. The last time I had it was weird, I was on the pier and I was looking for the bakery but couldn't find it, this is gonna sound absolutely insane but the bakery was projecting on the ground like athe old super Mario games, but I go in the bakery somehow and it went the same as always, does this mean anything?

two seperate dreams in the same night

2026-06-25T12:30:49+00:00

Both dreams were extremely vivid, the first involved me being by the waterfront, but still on land and there was a huge tornado coming (im from the uk so have never seen a tornado in my life) but i was watching it come towards me and my cat ran outside and i had to get her back and it was super stressful. The next dream shortly after I was giving birth and i don’t want kids irl, but in my dream i was ecstatic and felt so in love with the thought of meeting my baby soon and naming them. These dreams felt significant to me for some reason but ive no idea why. Any help on what these mean would be appreciated!

I had an extremely vivid dream about returning to New Hampshire, and it felt like I was visiting an old version of my life

2026-06-25T12:26:28+00:00

Last night I had one of the most vivid, emotional dreams
I’ve ever had. It felt so real that when I woke up, I genuinely had to remind myself none of it happened.
I was in a nice white hotel in New Hampshire with my family, some of my mom’s friends, and their kids. I made friends with a few younger people there, and we stayed up late talking because we wanted to make the most of the night. Eventually an older guy woke up looking angry that we were still awake, so everyone slowly went to bed.
I went back to my room and immediately felt like something was off. The room had a bed and a mirror, but no bathroom. There were harsh white lights everywhere that bothered me, but when I complained about them to the other kids they acted like I was being dramatic and kept saying, “Dude, chill, it’s normal.”
There were doors in my room that I assumed were closets or connected rooms. One door opened directly into the neighbors’ bedroom. I saw the older guy’s wife’s lingerie and shut it immediately because I didn’t want anyone getting mad at me. Another door led into a shared kitchen and a huge connected suite where my dad was making eggs and bacon while everyone was waking up and making coffee.
The weird part was that nobody else seemed confused. Everyone acted like it was completely normal that all the rooms were connected, but I kept questioning it more and more. People started looking at me like I wasn’t supposed to notice.
I couldn’t sleep, so I went out onto the patio in front of my hotel room, smoked a joint, and looked at the stars. I kept remembering the last time I was in New Hampshire with someone named Ricki. I remember telling one of the kids, “We should drive into the city and see the signs and roads in English. I miss this.” He looked at me confused and said something like, “Bro, what do you mean? You live here.”
That hit me hard, because in the dream I still lived in the U.S. I wasn’t homesick. I didn’t have to miss English signs, highways, New England nights, or that version of my life.
At one point, I decided to reality-check the dream. I thought, “If this is real, my clothing collection should be in the drawer.” I opened it and saw a bunch of Ralph Lauren. That wasn’t impossible because my mom still gives me Ralph Lauren sometimes, but there was no Chrome Hearts or anything that feels like my current identity. It felt like I was in a room belonging to an older version of myself.
The strongest part was that there were balloons with my face on them, along with photos and designs connected to my last trip with Ricki. When I started realizing something was wrong, I let my personal balloon go into the night sky. One of the teens asked me, “Why did you let go of your own balloon? Why not one of the others?”
And I said, “Some things are better off letting go. It’s time to move on.”
Then I went to my dad and said, “Pops, come into my room for a second, I need to ask you something.” He looked uneasy and said, “Oh no. I don’t like that at all. I don’t like that at all.” He gave me this strange look while walking toward my room, and I woke up.
I think I was partly lucid because I knew, deep down, that something wasn’t right. But I didn’t want to wake up. I wanted to stay because it felt like I had briefly gone back to a life I miss so much.
Does this sound like a semi-lucid dream to anyone else? And what would you make of the hotel, the connected rooms, and letting the balloon go?

Chaotic dreams

2026-06-25T12:22:42+00:00

I dreamed that I was teleported back in time to my college days. Except instead of studying in a dedicated room, we had lessons in seafood restaurant for some reason. My fellow students acted as if they see me for the first time. Then we practiced some chemistry and/or physics experiments in the restaurant. Then this whole scene suddenly ended.

Later, after unspecified amount of time, I appeared in the restaurant again, the bartender in the restaurant started asking me if I work here and what I want to order at the same time, his voice distorting itself. Then apparently a boss of the restaurant approached me and because of my college uniform he mistakenly thought that I was a guest of honor. For some reason I agreed and asked for a menu. After that the boss started desperately offering me streatfood of some sort, which I politely declined, because for some reason I was adamant that the meal would slowly kill me. Also I argued with the staff in the kitchen, and they started mimicking and maybe mocking my accent, even though I remember I spoked without one.

After I left the restaurant I instantly knew somehow that the town was invaded by lions or bears; and indeed I saw 3 lions that akin to scp-173 or Weeping Angels from Doctor Who switched/shapeshifted between lion and bear forms, when you didn't look at them.

I panicked and decided I should find a Uber driver and return to home, even though I knew that wasn't my hometown. First I ran to some university and the lady at reception that constantly teleported between rooms/ladders/staircase said there is no any kind of connection in the city, that I should seek the Uber on my own.

Then suddenly the scene changed again and I was running from the lionbears with my college friends, we were near group of some people when the dream abruptly ended, but not before I saw a flaming, floating sailboat high in the sky.

I can't make sense of this sequence of events. Usually in my dreams I do time traveling, not literally of course, I understand it's the product of my brain. But I certainly don't know what my subconscious is trying to tell me.

hi

2026-06-25T12:13:29+00:00

I js freakin made a reddit acc bc i just had the most interesting and chilling (for me) dream ever. So basically I fell asleep in my dream and IDK why I know it but I was having a lucid dream there like I was AWARE in my dreams and when my body (or should I justify it my soul?) left my sleeping body in my dreams, I SWEAR I FELT IT WAS REALLY COLD. I can remember how cold it was and I was like, 'maybe this is what being dead feels like?' And then I can't fully remember what I did when I was having a lucid dream while asleep in my dreams, but I do recall that there we're malfunctions everywhere and people are glitching and everything, like a failed ai smth like that. And then, I was trying to come back to my sleeping body cause I felt I'm getting scared and to make sure, if I feel warm again, it means i'm back to my body BUT BROO no matter how hard I try there I was feeling cold and got scared cuz I thought 'did I just die?' AND THEN I WOKE UP AT 5AM, IT WASN'T THAT COLD LIKE THE FEELING I HAD AND GOT UP, GOT READY FOR SCHOOL.

Whiteboard

2026-06-25T12:05:20+00:00

Had a dream where I was doing a maths equation on a whiteboard, then ran out of space so I just quit because I couldn't do the rest in my head. But the whiteboard was imaginary I was dreaming it and doing it in my head all the time.

Someone offered to kill me in my dream.

2026-06-25T08:13:17+00:00

I had a dream where I was trapped in the backrooms.

A strange woman appeared and told me that I could only escape if I died.

She offered to kill me, and she promised that it wouldn't hurt at all.

When I told her that I didn't want to die yet because my best friend would be heartbroken, a door appeared.

Immediately after walking through the door, I woke up.

I kinda interpreted this as my brain reminding me that death isn't the only way out, I wonder what other people think.

Does anyone else have full movie plots in dreams?

2026-06-24T19:41:28+00:00

By a movie plot, I mean the main characters, side characters, villains and a coherent story. Mostly, my dreams feel like I'm watching a movie, except I'm the main character.

Like my dreams have a main plot, subplots and sometimes even a proper ending, none of my family friends even remembers their dreams or if they do, it's something normal like they forgot to wake up for an exam or something.

I mean, just today, I dreamt about a magical academy with mystical creatures and forbidden secrets. And the surprising thing is that I remember most of my dreams. Could this be because I am a writer?

Death dreams

2026-06-25T11:33:16+00:00

So I use to have nightmares of me dying of my family dying like every day when I was little. And for all of these dreams I felt the pain for them. I don’t have them everyday now, but I still do have them. Like I had this dream last night, where we rented a house in a nice area like a gated community. Later on, my family and I get killed in the house. And I wake up with this stabbing pain in my back. Does anyone know why this happened?

Childhood re-occurring dream that I still think about.

2026-06-25T11:27:41+00:00

I had a re occurring dream as a child three nights in a row where my grandmothers house was full of demons. Like scary creatures with horns and teeth and even human like scratching at walls and windows. An angel came down the hall, the only way I can describe him/her is looking like Gabriel from the bible. At first I was terrified of it and hid in one of the rooms. I was screaming until I woke up. On the third night I tried not to be afraid of the angel. When I didn’t hide it walked down the hall and with a wave of his/her hand the demons went away and then I woke up. I was around 9 or 10. I often think of this re occurring dream a lot in my adult life. What did that mean? I’ve heard the whole “you were probably anxious about things at the time and it showed up in your dreams” but I remember it so vividly to this day because I genuinely remember it feeling so spiritual and hard to understand at that age. Like an angel really was visiting me and looking out for me. Has anyone else experienced the same?

Ted Kaczynski Was My Grandpa

2026-06-25T07:30:33+00:00

Not even sure if I really want to post this, I might delete it, but whatever. Interpret it however you want. Copy and pasting this from my notes.

Just woke up from a totally fucked nightmare that I was one of Ted Kaczynski's grandchildren and was living with him on his farm in the middle of nowhere, taking care of my two little siblings. I lived a whole life on this farm with my siblings, and he was the best grandpa ever. Well...

I went to go talk to him and ask him for advice one day, after we hadn't seen him for a while. I went out to the usual spots he'd be, he wasn't there. While I was looking, I noticed he'd taken care of all the things he'd usually put off a little, filling certain feeders, filling up one of the water basins that wasn't really popular with the animals anyway, trimming the horse's tail, etc. and thought it was odd and got a bad feeling. I checked the tree we would sometimes stand under for shade and talk, and saw "him" just barely peeking out from behind it, but he didn't look right at all.

He'd somehow hung himself on it days prior? I couldn't figure it out. I don't know if he did it this way on purpose, I had a feeling he did, but he'd done it in a way that his feet just barely brushed the ground. So, from a distance, at any angle, it looked like he was just standing there, but he was actually hanging. As if to make sure the person most likely to find him would be someone that actively went searching for him or got close enough. So, most likely me. I had to cut him down and his body felt mummified and almost weightless, like paper mache or something. I couldn't figure out when or how he'd done it. I was sobbing uncontrollably, nearly shrieking. I remember feeling so abandoned and yelling at him, asking him if he hated it here that much to abandon us. I wanted to ask him if he hated it here more than he loved us, but knew that wasn't true, so I didn't. I told him that I knew it (the world) was bad, but bad enough to leave us behind? To leave me by myself to raise my siblings on my own with no one to ask advice from? I felt like a baby animal that had been abandoned and wasn't big enough to survive on its own, but might if it really fought. Like this was going to be a really fucking rough next couple of years. It was horrible. ✌️

How many other people have repeated horrible dreams every night?

2026-06-25T07:26:35+00:00

I'm one of these people who always remembers my dreams the next day. Without fail, every night I have a bad dream. The themes are recurrent, just slightly different each time.

For example, one dream I keep having a variation of is that I'm a prisoner in a dingy, dirty cell in pretty inhumane conditions. I'm wearing rags and have a heavy chain around my ankle. I'm scared and curled up in a ball on the cold floor. I can hear the sound of the ankle chain rattling against the floor as I move. I feel all the hunger and pain of a real prisoner.

I also have dreams of being stabbed. This has happened in different settings but always in the same area of the abdomen. Funnily enough, I have a birth mark in real life in that same area. One time, a girl picked up a pointy piece of bathroom tile and stabbed me in the stomach. I felt it go in and all the pain that comes with it. I was also stabbed by 2 dudes in a dream and bled out (I was also a boy in that dream but I'm a girl irl).

I also have that toilet stall dream where the public bathrooms are huge with tons of stalls, and it's all kind of dark, dirty and very busy. A lot of the stalls are locked but when I find one that's open, the door or walls aren't tall enough and everyone can basically see me going to the toilet lol.

I also have dreams where I'm arguing with my partner or family members. Usually they're shouting nasty, hurtful words at me, swearing at me, calling me names, saying they hate me and they wish I didn't exist etc. None of this stuff has ever been said in real life and they would never say that to me. But after I wake up, I'm always pretty down because it felt so real.

All of these dreams I've had many times, for years, I don't seem to necessarily have 'new' dreams anymore, as in, my dreams are always in the same locations, just slightly different things happening.

Locations include: A big elevator, a hotel hallway, a manor house, my high school (but always at night and it's creepy), my local mall, public bathrooms, and a prison cell. Does anyone have this?

What’s a dream that actually stuck with you

2026-06-25T11:02:20+00:00

have y’all had dreams that seemed connected to something going on in your life like even if it was a week or months ago. For example, have you noticed your dreams becoming repetitive when life feels repetitive, or becoming more adventurous when you’re excited about something?, or did the dream stick because it means something

Weird dream I never had before

2026-06-25T10:52:55+00:00

Hey all! This is my first post here so I will try to be as specific as possible in hoped I can maybe get some explanation on the dream I had last night.

So, I remember being at the top of a hill in the middle of a road looking at the sea, when a huge serpent swam ashore and started to crawl up towards me.

People that were on that same road started fleeing as she approached and she kept on staring at me.
I fled, towards an open bar which I got in and closed the door.

The serpent didn't try to break in but kept on lurking around the door until she turned away.

As she did, I opened the door and saw an old bearded man grabbing her by the neck as she then transformed into 3 fish (??)

That was it. I have no idea of what the dream was or why I had it but if anyone can help me out would be great.

Thanks!!!

Blue lady in dreams

2026-06-25T10:52:54+00:00

I had a mysterious blue lady appear in my dreams a few nights ago. While dreaming last night i was looking for her again. I kept running into random people in my dream asking them. Eventually my whole dream turned into a search party. I never got her to appear again. Last year it was a purple lady with multiple hands.

I Remain a Fully Thinking Humanoid (read body below).

2026-06-25T04:32:22+00:00

I don't know if anyone has experienced similar things, but I've started experiencing my dreams where I'm not just this entity thrown through a random set of sensations, colors, images, and experiences. Within these dreams, there are complete structures and terrains in which I become a completely new, or sometimes the same, fully thinking humanoid I am, that navigates through it without being aware that I am in a dream, with my standard level of intelligence.

My dreams used to be a random slew of bullshit most of the time, majority barely coherent stories, with only a few memorable dreams throughout my life like usual. But as of late, I don't know if it's because of my fuck-ass sleep schedule, I've been experiencing full-on coherent stories inside my dreams where some serious shit happens. Like one where I was literally tricked into killing myself by a fucking entity. Have navigated through complex set of mega structures where I can remember where locations and things are? Not to mention, being able to completely read in my dreams.

Has anyone experienced similar?

A dream that transforms following a healing journey.

2026-06-25T09:27:01+00:00

For several years now (i think), I’ve been having the same dream, give or take a few details, a dilapidated, unfinished, menacing house where i can’t seem to lock the doors and windows to feel safe.

Lately, I’ve noticed the dream slowly shifting, it seems the healing journey I’m on in my waking life is allowing me to see a different turn of events in the dream.

Tonight, the house was huge, it had been given to me, and someone helping me renovate it. I was encouraged to break through the floor to see what lay beneath in the basement (the unconscious).

I was terrified of what i might find, it was dark, and i was imagining the worst... then someone told me to stop looking around with anxious anticipation for what i can see, and instead face the truth as it actually is.

Yes, it was dusty, unfinished, and chaotic, the house scared me, but i sense small changes indicating that i am on a path of expansion. And yes, it is scary... to facing fear, but i anticipating all my life, its time to stop imagining the worst and loocking the truth that exist now.

Constantly dreaming about deceased grandparents every night.

2026-06-25T01:35:11+00:00

My paternal grandfather passed away in February, and my paternal grandmother followed him in March.

I was incredibly close to both of them. I spent so much of my childhood and teenage years with them, and some of my happiest memories are from the time we shared together. About a year ago, I had to move to another city because of work, far away from them. Even though I wasn't able to see them as often anymore, I'm grateful that I was able to be with both of them during their final moments.

For the past three weeks, I've been dreaming about them almost every night.

In my dreams, everything feels so real. Sometimes I ask them if we'll ever see each other again, and they always tell me, "Yes."

Other times, it's like I've traveled back in time. I know what's going to happen, and I try with everything I have to warn them. I tell them to take care of themselves, to see a doctor sooner, to do whatever they can to avoid the illnesses that eventually took them from us. I try so hard to change the future, but I never can.

I just wanted to share this because it's been happening so often, multiple times a week and I haven't really told anyone about it.

I keep having the same scary dream premises

2026-06-25T08:01:00+00:00

I keep having this scary dream where I kill someone or I break the law in some serious way and I never get arrested in the dreams but it’s more-so about the police investigating the crimes and I’m stressed and freaking out in the dream terrified that I might be caught and i have no idea why I keep having them? I’ve never broken the law and I don’t have any wish to hurt someone?

My dream last night was that I pushed someone infront of a train and then the police began investigating and I had to play it cool and i was just feeling incredibly stressed out and It felt genuinely real, I woke up and was in a sweaty mess, does anyone have any insight as to why I keep having these dreams of me breaking the law?

Short scary dream I had last night

2026-06-25T07:48:26+00:00

I was at my old house in Louisiana. It was nighttime outside with a little bit of dark blue sky enough to see a little bit in front of me but it was really dark out. I’m with my brother and we’re playing video games deep away from the house in the yard in like a half shed where it’s open on our backside. I tell my brother i’m going inside so I start walking back in the dark and I hear footsteps getting louder behind me I turn and see a lady running towards me and I can hardly see her, and she’s making faint noises. I don’t see what she’s wearing but she looks mangled and creepy and I pull out a shotgun and shoot her 5 times thinking she would drop dead and stop chasing me. she doesn’t stop she only slows down. I make it back inside and I tell my other brother that there’s a woman outside and I shot her 5 times and i’m visibly frightened and I mention that our brother is still outside so my brother says he’s gonna go check it out. He walks outside and I wait there thinking about what could be happening out there. Wondering if she died or if she did anything to my brothers or maybe even make it inside. Then my brother that went to check outside comes back inside and he seems fine. He tells me everything is fine and he handled it. The thought of her making it inside begins to grow so i make my way to the slide door near the dinner table. Its a big glass door with a curtain covering it so I went to make sure it was locked and I slid the curtain to the side and I could just barely make out a white skinned figure crouched in front of the glass door moving around in the darkness like she could see me and wanted to get to me to eat me. I could never see her face or really make out any part of her. All I can really say is that she was a woman and she was skinny and she had pale skin and she was mangled and she had black straw like frizzy hair and she was almost like a zombie. I was so scared by the sight of her at the glass door that I woke up from my dream and I was so deep in sleep I don’t remember ever falling asleep. I was confused for a moment but relieved to be cuddling my girlfriend and safe when I had woken up from this nightmare.

Dystopian downtown dream

2026-06-25T07:40:21+00:00

This dream was long, vivid, and was like watching a movie.

There was a downtown area full of shops, restaurants, coffee shops, bars, etc. It looked a lot like Union Square in San Francisco. Everything in this downtown area was nice, fancy, clean and safe. The restaurants had red and gold interiors, huge menus, attentive wait staff, and revolving doors. The streets were clean, with very little traffic that was slow and orderly. The coffee shops served lattes topped with whipped cream, with cookie crumbles and green crispy confetti sprinkled on top.

The city was full of people whose only purpose was to walk around, alone or in groups, and patron the shops and restaurants. At night they would stay in the hotels, then get up the next day and continue walking around and shopping the downtown area. There were certain characters who did various things that I remember vividly, but I’ll leave most of them out for the sake of length.

As the people walked, they were supposed to move in one general direction, it seemed like southeast. They would stop in places along the way to shop, get coffee, have dinner, go to a bar, etc, but generally everyone had to move southeast. But as they moved that direction, the shops became more simple, the restaurants were less accommodating and more basic, with smaller menus and fewer staff. The coffee shops stopped offering fancy lattes, and the fancy hotels were replaced with basic motels and hostels. The traffic became faster and more crowded. The people themselves didn’t change, they just tried to adapt to the surroundings, dealing with less accommodation and fewer options as they patroned the shops.

As days passed and the people continued moving southeast, things became more dangerous, dirty, and less accommodating. A lot of shops were closed, coffee shops only offered burned black coffee, and there were shabby food carts and food stands in place of restaurants. Traffic was fast and reckless, and there was trash on the streets. It seemed almost like the people were now in a sort of game or simulation where the city was trying to discourage them, hurt them or even kill them, and their goal was to continue living their lives and survive. But weirdly they weren’t becoming scared, or hurried in any way. They were just staying calm and polite, helping each other out if needed, and behaving like everything was just fine.

At one point during this part of the dream I became a bystander witnessing a guy be almost killed. As he was walking, a car came up onto the sidewalk and almost hit him. He jumped out of the way. Then a helicopter that was flying overhead started to stall and fall out of the sky. The man ran away from it and it crashed where he had been standing. As he was recovering, a huge bomber literally materialized in the air behind him (it started out as a B-52, then shifted to become an SR-71), coming in for a crash landing right at the guy. He again ran out of the way as the plane crashed into the ground right where he had been standing. People ran in all directions, but eventually they just went back to their business of walking and shopping.

Soon after this I was in charge of one of the food trailers, and I was closing it up for the night. I was lowering a large awning, but as I was lowering it, a well dressed man came along dragging a dirty mattress and politely asked if he could put his mattress under the awning to sleep there for the night, because there were no motels or hostels, or anyplace else to sleep. I said sure. Soon after that I woke up.

There were many other parts of this dream, it seemed to go on for days. Definitely one I’ll remember.

A Little Longer in the Past

2026-06-25T07:24:53+00:00

We were sitting at my grandmother's house, watching everyone eat.When I arrive, I start greeting everyone—

my grandmother, my mom, my aunt. My mom was cooking some noodles, some spaghetti.And the dream was super nostalgic.

The tablecloth and everything looked so much like back in the day.

My dad was talking about something.And when I sit down—because I had already greeted everyone and the dream showed me the scene of everyone eating—I say:'Uhh, let me stay just a little bit longer before going back.'I mean, I knew where I was, who I was with, and that I was about to wake up. 😭

And I was swinging my legs under the table, just like when I was a kid."

I'm 31 years old and I only had one dream in my life that actually came true!

2026-06-25T07:11:29+00:00

It happened in 2006, back when I was a kid, a few months before I went overseas to visit some family. I had the most vivid dream of this little 3-4 unit apartment building. It was such a unique dream because it was so detailed and the details stuck with me after I woke up from it. So like 2 months later, I fly overseas to visit family. We land at the airport and the first place we drive to is the same exact apartment building from my dream! It was owned by my uncle and my grandma and aunt lived there. it was so fucking weird, I swear to god I never seen this place in my life! But the weirdness doesn't stop there. We then traveled to different cities around the country and kept running into this same family from Arizona, they were on the same flights as us and stayed at the same hotels as us. Then we stopped in a city and were eating breakfast at the hotel, and I saw this kid who was from my home town back in Michigan eating break fast a couple tables away from us! I was so shocked! All of these weird events happened in the week and a half we stayed in the country! This life is so crazy. I still experience strange coincidences from time to time, but nothing on that level any more.

Third dream involving some kind of soul devouring entity

2026-06-25T03:06:23+00:00

A ritual seal was released that set something free that existed in a feminine form, and she/they proceeded to walk through a populated area, slurping up souls that looked like thin eels while the alarms were going off. I was there (as a spectator sort of person), and saw this street punk guy who was getting aggressive towards me earlier wind up to take her on, and she just went

I keep having dreams about having a sibling

2026-06-25T06:47:19+00:00

So i have this thing.i keep having dreams of having a sibling suddenly. For context im an only child, my mom is 54 years old and had some issues with her reproductive system so there's a little chance she could get pregnant again and my dad is 72 years old so yeah. Every one of these dreams is a nightmare. I get so angry and I don't want this sibling and just beg that this is all a dream. Last night i had this dream and my sibling was actually a boy. I remember throwing a tantrum that I don't want him and how he's gonna live with us since we don't have a big house and I don't want him to be in my room with me and bother me while I study and I don't want to take care of him all the time. Why do i keep having dreams like this? I swear i had like 10+ dreams like this in the past year. In the recent dream i even remember going on reddit and asking for help how to calm down in this situation 😭

I actually love kids but also love being an only child and having my independence, peace and freedom. And I would never ever want a sibling since I'm 17 and if i had a sibling a 17 year old gap would be insane. I'd accept a sibling if she or he was the same age as me or one year younger or older than me but other than that no. And sharing my room is my actual nightmare. My room is like my kingdom, my sacred place 😭 and it's only mine and mine only..

Could someone help me understand these reoccurring dreams?

I predicted the future in the weirdest way

2026-06-24T19:31:33+00:00

This happened on 30 November 2024. The date is really important here.

I woke up in a destroyed apartment building on one of the higher floors. It looked like it had been hit by a nuke or something. And there were weird growths all around, vines and giant plants.

Once I managed to get out of there, I was stopped by a stranger that looked and acted kind of funny. They were really, and I mean really trying to convince me to go back into the building. Sensing something was wrong, I decided not to. Then, as I was walking around the area, I kept trying to convince people that were just passing by not to go into the ruined building.

After waking up, I didn't really think anything of it. I just wrote it down somewhere because I thought it was pretty interesting.

Then, on Dec 1, CreepCast posted a video where they read The Dionaea House.

Spoiler warning for those who haven't read the story!!!!!

For those who don't know, the story features houses that are actually dionaeas (carnivorous plants) which look like houses, that use humans as puppets in order to attract people and then eat them.

I only realised the connection a while ago. It's the only time I have ever had a dream predict the future (as far as I remember). It really weirded me out though. I'm not someone who believes in the paranormal that much, and whenever I heard people say they had dreams of future events, I never really took them seriously. So this really hit me like a rocket.

Had one of the craziest dreams I’ve had in a long time and I’m curious what people think it means.

2026-06-25T01:42:39+00:00

The dream started with me being back together with my ex of three years ago. We were spending time with her family and honestly it felt great. Everyone was laughing, joking around, and having a good time. The weird part was that every time I looked at my ex, I felt disgusted. Not because she was unattractive, but because in the dream she had left her current boyfriend and come back to me after being with him for a long time. The thought of that bothered me.
Later I went to visit her by myself. She was in bed under the covers, holding a vibrator, and seemed surprised that I showed up. She said she wished I had told her I was coming.
Out of nowhere, her current boyfriend charged at me. The funny thing is that he completely missed me and ran straight into a mirror. He’s Brazilian, so I tried speaking Portuguese to calm things down, but I couldn’t really do it, so I switched to Spanish and told him I was there respectfully. He didn’t care.
We ended up fighting. We traded blows and eventually I got him to the ground and choked him unconscious. For a second I thought I had killed him, but then I saw he was still breathing.
That’s when my mom and stepdad showed up. My ex was lying in bed pretending to be asleep while all this was happening. I got furious because in my mind we were supposedly back together, but she was still involved with him, and now I had just gotten attacked. I slapped her across the face to wake her up and started cursing her out. My mom and stepdad didn’t react at all.
Then the dream jumped to a different location.
I was in what was supposedly my house, except it wasn’t my real house. It was kind of run down and looked almost ghetto. It had three stories and I was on the third floor. I went into the bathroom and looked in the mirror expecting to see bruises from the fight, but my face was completely clean. Not a scratch.
For some reason, I started brushing my teeth.
While I was brushing, my stepdad came upstairs and told me that my ex’s boyfriend and his friends were looking for me.
I looked out the third-floor window and could see him arguing with people near a neighbor’s house. My stepdad told me he had seen the guy’s car before and it had a Superman sticker on it.
I immediately looked for my own car so I could leave, but my car (which wasn’t my real-life car) was blocked in by his car. The funny thing is that my car had a Spider-Man sticker on it.
Then more people started showing up. Some had guns. Everyone was arguing and fighting. A couple shots were fired, but I never saw whether anyone got hurt.
The last thing I remember was running out of the building and watching all chaos unfold and realizing they were all there looking for me.
I woke up feeling a mix of anger, fear, and relief.
What do you guys think this dream means?

i dreamt of this wierd thing

2026-06-25T05:20:41+00:00

so i just woke up from a dream. i don't know why but it's quite disturbing to me. it's not a nightmare, tho there are monsters. when i woke up i drawn all this from what i remember. im used to remembering dreams easily. i still remember a dream i have a couple years ago. but this one is just "more alarming", for lack of a better term. i don't know what even is the "thing" in this dream. typically when i dream something always stands out and that's why i remember it. but this one i remember most if not all. im gonna explain what the circles are from what i know. in the dream those circle are stone plates. i can and they are carved like with what i can only compare to Aztec symbols. the three small circles from what i know are different realities or at least they represent different ones. there is this red thing that i this is corrupted blood slowly flowing to the other tables. almost like it's infecting them. the middle one is what i first saw. there's a wedding and lots of people are having fun. i even recognize some of them. then one person got "stung by a jellyfish". there was no ocean. i saw her skin bubble. so we ran to a house to get some medicine or something that could help. i haven't gotten to the inside yet, then across the street monsters came out of the house bursting through the wall. and as soon as i know what's happening people are getting killed by monsters on the street. the left one is next. it was peaceful. i was in a city next to a pond or lake just walking. then everyone started acting wierd. they looked like they're being controlled and just stopped thinking thoughts. the an old guy appeared next to me. his old, mustache, bearded and well dressed. i know his the one controlling everyone but i don't know why i know. he spoke to me and told me what his goal is. his looking for something. i don't know what it was his looking for but it won't be good if he finds it. his a monster in human form. the last one is on the right. i was in a huge building. the design of it is similar to schools I've seen. i wasn't alone here. i was with people. i don't know how many of us are human but there's more than one. the night was dark, it doesn't help that this building is in the middle of the forest with trees bigger than it. seen from the outside it's four to five floors tall yet it's small compare to the trees around it. we run through the corridors because there are this monsters chasing us. i would guess they are similar to bigfoot only they are black like a shadow. we got out of there by jumping from the second floor to the outside. then the monster showed up again. the second picture it one of the monsters I've seen. the middle part of it is flesh or tentacles. black part are legs, human legs and feet. and the brown part are branches but they move like they're made of flesh. this monster was in all of the realities. on the first one (wedding) it's the first monster that burst through the house. the last reality it's in the forest approaching from the trees. and on the second, he is the old man. before i woke up i saw the stone circles, it was in a white void floating in front of me. and there's a voice saying to look for the "macabre". i have no clue what is a macabre is and you can even see me trying to spell out macabre. it's strange. my heart is still racing even tho im awake.

A recurring dream about my first crush made me understood my self-worth

2026-06-25T04:33:47+00:00

She was my first crush growing up in school. For some reason, I was never able to gather the courage to say that I liked her, and at that moment in time, that kid was very under-confident, bullied at times. It felt like I was not worthy.

When I went to a different city for my high school, I often dreamt of her. My subconscious always showed me that I had left some unfinished business at home. And in all of those dreams, it never felt like she would choose me or validate because I was still under-confident and deemed myself not worthy.

When I was in college, during Covid, I saw a dream in which she died, and I genuinely crashed out that day. I don’t want to remember.

Until then, I never realised the significance of dreams. I used to think that these dreams were a message that she was destiny. But, on the contrary, I realised these were messages from my subconscious about what I think about myself.

I understood this by reading Carl Jung.

I had not dreamt of her for six years, until today, but today was a different dream.
In this dream, she was in her school dress: a navy blue blazer.
She was smiling at me and wanted to talk to me, but I was avoiding her.
She was saying things like, “Your cuteness has not faded. You are still the same amount of cute.”
I wanted to talk to her, but for some reason, I realised I had to go.
I had to leave this world(I am relocating abroad).
My younger brother came to me and said, “It’s getting late.”

Post-dream realisation
I started to cry and am getting teared up, and it’s very hard to explain to anyone. I am not crying because my first crush came in my dream. I am crying because my subconscious appeared in the form of my first crush and validated me and accepted me. Maybe it was never about external validation. The acceptance needs to come from within.

Dreamt I was repainting a house that kept growing new rooms faster than I could finish

2026-06-24T16:37:17+00:00

This one’s stuck with me all day. I was painting the walls of a house and every time I finished a room and turned around, a new doorway had appeared leading to another empty room that also needed painting.

It never felt scary, just quietly endless. At some point I realized the house was breathing slightly, the walls moving in and out like it was alive and just… patient. I wasn’t trying to escape, I think I’d accepted I’d be painting forever.

I woke up weirdly calm about it instead of stressed, which is the part I can’t shake.

Anyone else get these “endless task” dreams? I’ve heard they’re supposed to mean something but mine never feel anxious the way people describe — more peaceful than anything. Curious if that’s common.

Right now Im not speaking to my cousin and I dreamt that she initiated conversation with me and we talked like old times. Soon after my lower molars started coming out whole from my mouth.

Ive always felt like my cousin was jealous of me for unknown reasons from since small. She has watched me with disgust and hate in her eyes, she bad talks me to people before I meet them. Yet I still try to love her for all these years.

The Same Man Appeared in My Dreams Two Nights in a Row

2026-06-24T16:42:06+00:00

I had dreams about the same man for two consecutive nights, and the whole experience has stayed with me because of how vivid and strange it felt.

#First Dream

In the first dream, I met a man in a crowded place. I can't remember exactly where we were, but there were a lot of people around and some of my friends were there too.

The man gave off very caring, loving, and comforting vibes. He stayed close to me the entire time, talking to me, looking after me, and making me feel safe. My friends seemed happy for me, almost as if they approved of him.

I slowly started developing feelings for him because of how kind and attentive he was. He was exactly my type. I remember him wearing soft-colored clothes, something like a white or light pink shirt with light-colored pants. The overall appearance felt warm and gentle.

At some point, he told me his name was Rohith.

What I find strange is that after he told me his name, I started repeating it in my head over and over again. It felt like I was intentionally trying to memorize it so I wouldn't forget it when I woke up. I don't know if I was partially aware that I was dreaming or not, but I clearly remember thinking that I needed to remember his name.

Because of that, I still remember the name Rohith clearly.

He then asked me to go with him. He told me he had a place for me and wanted me to come along. I was shy, blushing, and honestly considering it.

But before I could go with him, one of my friends stopped me and wouldn't let me leave with him.

That's where the first dream ended.

#Second Dream

The next night, I dreamed about him again.

This time, the atmosphere was completely different.

Instead of a crowded place, we were in a quiet building or hallway with elevators and staircases. The place felt empty, silent, and unsettling.

The man looked like the same person, but his appearance had changed. He was dressed entirely in black. He wore a black blazer or suit with a dark red, almost maroon-colored shirt underneath. There was also a dark red cloth or handkerchief visible in his pocket.

He approached me again and asked me to go with him.

He introduced himself with a different name this time. I remember the name started with the letter A, but I can't remember what it was anymore.

He kept insisting that I should come with him.

I wanted to refuse, but I have trouble saying no to people, even in dreams. I felt stuck and kept trying to think of a polite way to avoid going with him.

As he continued following me and insisting, I became irritated.

Finally, he said something like:

"How many times do I have to explain it to you? Just come with me already."

I replied:

"Please, I have work to do. Please leave me alone."

His expression changed after that.

We were standing in front of an elevator when he suddenly grabbed my hand. When the elevator arrived, he tried to pull me inside with him.

Instead, I pushed him into the elevator and stayed outside.

As the elevator doors slowly closed, he looked directly at me and smirked.

The smile felt completely different from the warm smile in the first dream. It felt unsettling, almost like he was silently saying:

"I'll come back for you. Just wait."

After the elevator doors shut, I suddenly felt something wet land on my face.

At first, I thought it was water, so I wiped it away.

A moment later, another drop landed on my wrist.

This time I looked closely.

It was blood.

Confused, I checked my hands and realized there was blood on them too from where I had wiped my face.

I looked back toward the elevator.

I don't remember whether it was moving up or down, but I remember seeing blood flowing from it. The area around it seemed covered in blood.

I was horrified.

My immediate thought was that I had somehow killed him when I pushed him into the elevator.

I panicked and ran toward the stairs. I remember feeling pure fear as I ran.

Then I woke up.

*Another strange detail is that I remember seeing his face very clearly in both dreams.

While I was dreaming, I could recognize him instantly. His face felt familiar, and I had no trouble seeing him.

But now that I'm awake, I can't properly describe his face.

It's almost like the memory is blurred. I know I saw it clearly, and I still feel like I could recognize him if I saw him again, but when I try to explain his features or picture them in detail, I can't. It's as if the dream let me remember that I knew his face, but not what his face actually looked like.

What makes this experience strange to me is that it felt like the same man in both dreams. The face felt familiar, but everything else changed.

In the first dream, he seemed caring, affectionate, and safe. He wore light colors, introduced himself as Rohith, and made me feel comfortable.

In the second dream, he appeared in dark clothing, introduced himself with a different name that started with "A," and felt controlling and unsettling.

*The fact that I was consciously trying to memorize his name in the first dream, that he appeared again the very next night, and that I remembered his face but can't describe it now, is what I find most unusual.

Has anyone else experienced recurring dreams where the same person appears multiple times but seems completely different each time??

Really weird dream

2026-06-25T03:56:50+00:00

I was up in the early morning 3-4 AM and get really tired so now I'm in a state between awake and sleep. With my eyes closed I get this dream im in my room and my curtain rail is lopsided I want to get up and make it straight again(although somethimg was telling me its okay i felt really uncomfortable at the thought of something watching )but my body is so heavy like I have to put alot of strength into moving as soon as my feet touch the floor it becomes cluttered with just random stuff but I push and reach the windows and fix the rail.

Additional information: this didn't last long max 10 minutes and the whole time I was aware that im dreaming I just couldn't stop it.

Could anyone interpret this and tell me any possible meaning to this dream.

Is This A Nightmare?

2026-06-24T23:38:42+00:00

I have lucid dreams and have never been frightened by anything. However the past few months I have experienced something that is terrifying. A being whose facial features I cannot make out appears at the foot of my bed and is reaching out to me. It seems to be in the room not in my dream. I physically move away from it and scream. I have had this happen three times. I am also hearing loud knocking on the door that wakes me up. I have had the knocking on the door before but for some reason the frequency of sounds that seem out of the dream state with the arms reaching for me are scaring me. I don’t know what to make of it. Anybody else had this happen? I would welcome your opinion.

2026-06-24T22:26:41+00:00

so basically to cut it short the dream’s main memory for me was i was watching some sort of tiktok livestream where they were showing babies with three sets of eyes (going up to their forehead) and the eyes were moving at the same time and it looked very realistic. it triggered my trypophobia 🤢 some people in the comments were saying not to discriminate against the disabled like those babies which made me try to feel less grossed out and more accepting ig but ugh. still yuck. what could it mean?

Can someone tell me what it means to rip out worms from your belly button?

2026-06-24T22:14:14+00:00

I recently woke up from a strange dream where I find eggs in my belly button. I couldn't tell if it's from pure disgust or not, but I pulled them out. Not one by one, every single thing I could get my hands on. Then, the worms. I continued to pull them out until the last, longest, girthiest worm was plucked out. I think they all look like red worms, with the eggs being yellow and the largest worm having mandibles. The process was slightly painful, leaving me with an ache. To think about it, it's not that agonizing, nor is it draining.

I had a dream where a specific date was mentioned and idk what that means

2026-06-24T22:10:19+00:00

The date in the dream was 14th of July, but this date already passed, and in this dream it was the date of my birthday, when actually it is the 24th of October. Even in the dream I was kinda confused.

I don't remember what I've done that day this year. I checked the calendar and it was a Sunday.

In the dream, a group of like seven or eight children came into my house because it was my birthday. I was pretty much confused because I was like "My birthday is not today" but the kids didn't letf my house anyway.

Fight or fight

2026-06-25T01:52:19+00:00

I'm at my maternal grandparents' old house with the family. The topic of the LGBTQ+ community is eventually brought up, and, with most of them being some level of conservative (some more than others), a lot of homophobic/transphobic/etc. comments are being made. I guess dream me is braver and less cowardly than real-life me, because I use this moment to come out and try to debate them. However, I get real flustered, and, like real-life me, I start stammering my words and not really making any sense of anything, so they all dismiss me, saying I'm one of those sensitive leftist and if I can't properly defend something, then I'm automatically wrong in that situation.

I'm then at the airport boarding a plane. It's massive... walking past first class and, while only 3-4 rows total, each row is 15 or so chairs wide. I make my way to the economy seating, and it's even bigger. Think about a middle school auditorium at a school getting decent funding, and that's how big it is. It had to have been twenty rows deep, 40 seats per row. And that's not it, there was an actual stage that all of the seats were facing. This section, with plenty of seats to choose from, was actually fairly empty of passengers, maybe 15-20 total. Every so often the attendants would go from person to person, offering drinks and snacks.

After I landed at my layover airport, I get a message from my sister, saying my destination was a surprise, and gave me a gate number. I guess she booked the flight for me. So I make my way towards where I'm supposed to go, and when I get there, boarding had started, and the screen said the destination was Disneyland. I guess Disneyland had an open airport on-site for guests.

Had a terrifying dream about my ex

2026-06-24T21:41:22+00:00

Need to get this out somewhere. Had the most intense nightmare last night about my ex, who was abusive and toxic back in the day. For context, this was 10 years ago: when i broke up he threatened me, harassed my friends and family when I tried to leave, made my life hell for a while. I thought I'd moved past it.

In the dream he was chasing me the entire time. I was running, shivering with fear and anxiety the whole way through. At one point he caught me and I was tied up in a car, just waiting for something terrible to happen.

Then somehow I was in a two-story shop, managed to get upstairs, but he found his way up too. I ended up tangled in something at a construction site nearby and he showed up there too. I finally got away and locked him behind a door, screaming for someone to call the police. Nobody listened. My dad was nearby in the dream too and even he didn't react. Eventually some stranger helped me escape, and that's when I woke up, drenched in sweat, heart racing.

It's been a decade since any of this actually happened, so I'm confused about why it's resurfacing now so vividly. Anyone else have old trauma show up in dreams out of nowhere like this?

My First And Only Lucid Dream I've Ever Had

2026-06-24T19:25:45+00:00

Heyo! I just joined here so I thought I should share one of the only lucid dream I've ever had especially since it still impacts me to this day.

This was during a period where i was falling asleep at 10pm on the dot for a week straight, this is important since I've had insomnia and sleep problems since I'm 9 due to PTSD and I remember I was dreaming quite deeply during this time.

The dream starts off with me in a Japanese classroom, I was wearing a school uniform and there was fellow classmates with me in the room they were all chatting to each other so I remember it being a bit noisy but calm. It was a very cozy setting with a sunset in the background which was very vibrant, think purple and orange hues reflecting off of everything, like no clouds nor buildings outside the window just sunset.

This is where I became lucid, I was speaking out loud but no one turned their head towards me so, I began to speak louder when I realized I couldn't hear my own voice, I started to freak out a bit so I focused on my classmates, when I realized their faces where blurry/distorted, this immediately freaked me out and I was very unnerved. A voice in my head randomly told me 'its a dream' and I was dumbfounded because this was my first time ever being conscious in a dream, so IDK WHY but I thought I had to make my classmates aware, so I just told them "this is a dream". That's when the ambient noise stopped and the classroom seemed a bit dimmer, they all stopped and starred at me silently and i knew i fucked up, the classroom FELL apart like a 3d model just slowly drifting apart and i was thrown into the sunset abyss.

I drifted away from the classroom horrified when a voice told me 'you weren't supposed to say/do that' a variation of that kind and then i woke up. I think I upset the dream gods, sorry about that lol.

WELP that's my first and only lucid dream this was like 2-3 years ago and i still remember the details perfectly, Let me know what you guys think :)

Dream #006: Alternate Reality

2026-06-25T01:23:22+00:00

🌙 Night: June 25, 2026

I had a dream last night where I was in an alternate reality where I didn’t know my fiancé, Ethan. In this world, he didn't even exist. I was with someone else entirely, but I constantly felt a deep, aching longing for a person I didn't know and couldn't understand. Throughout the dream, I kept being faced with different challenges, but I was too distracted by the frustrating struggle of trying to remember this missing person.

Amidst all this emotional confusion, a lot of strange things started happening. My secretary, Chloe, suddenly approached me and requested to move to Laguna in a month. Then, in a bizarre turn of events, my dog Creami and my cats started getting along perfectly, which felt really weird to me.

Next, I found myself by a lake where everything felt completely fake. The waves weren't real water; they were just mechanisms made out of paper. Out on this strange lake, there was a boat trying to catch a whale. As soon as the whale reached a rock, it suddenly turned into a heavy woman. A treadmill appeared on the rock, and she immediately started running on it. Right after that, the scene shifted and I was on another boat trying to reach a different destination, but I wasn't even sure if we were traveling on water or on land.

Suddenly, my mom appeared right next to me because an old suitor of mine had called her phone. She handed the phone to me, and he started asking for my advice on who the best videographer would be for his upcoming wedding with his new wife. He even mentioned that his wedding theme was going to be sage green. This was so jarring because, in real life, he literally just got married last Saturday and his actual theme was red.

The dream shifted one last time, and I was driving all the way to Rizal to check out a house I wanted to rent. When I got there, the entire house felt incredibly eerie and unsettling. Because it was already so late at night, I felt like I had no choice but to stay and sleep there.

Just as the dread of being stuck in that creepy house set in, my phone rang. I hadn't found him, but Ethan found me.
He called to ask where I was. Even though I was with someone else in this reality, and even though we were only talking over the phone, a massive wave of safety washed over me. Something about him made me trust him completely, even if we were just talking over a call. I explained to him that I was in Rizal, and hearing his voice and feeling that absolute comfort was the exact moment I woke up.

Update on the girl from my dreams (click my profile and read about it if you don’t know

2026-06-24T16:35:30+00:00

The dream continued again. My wife and I watched our 3 kids grow up, go to college, get good jobs, and have kids of their own. We became grandparents, grew old together, and eventually died. Right after, the dream suddenly zoomed out and I heard my grandpa’s voice clearly say, “This is your future. You will never have a dream like this again.” The second he finished speaking, I woke up and immediately had sleep paralysis. That’s the part I can’t stop thinking about. Also, after living what felt like an entire lifetime with her, I never learned my wife’s name

I was back in HS in 1999. The OG Nazis came back and took over the US just as I graduated Middle School into 9th Grade. The first semester of 9th grade, someone's sweet Asian mother came to share her homemade baked sweets in the cafeteria before the Nazis took her away. Here it is in her memory.

Why Did I Dream This

2026-06-24T18:46:30+00:00

So I’m coming here because I’ve been struggling with this topic and it’s affecting my mental health and relationships. Long story short, I’ve always randomly had dreams about little things before they happened, not consistently but often enough that I asked my sister about it as a kid and she said it happens to everyone. I never really thought much about it since then.

Until this year. I had a nightmare a couple of months ago about my friend being SA’d. I didn’t see her exact face, but general features and her hair. I woke up that night obviously freaked out but chalked it up to a weird nightmare, as I have those from time to time.

The next day, that friend confided in me she had been assaulted. It happened while I dreamt about it. I didn’t tell her that obviously and I supported her, but that really really messed with me.

A couple of weeks later I had the same dream three nights in a row of me finding my boyfriend’s ex’s picture in his phone. I finally just looked through his phone and boom, just like I dreamed, his ex’s picture was there, along with explicit material that was not okay for our relationship.

I confronted him, and when he asked why I even thought to look in his phone, I just said “intuition,” because I’m going to sound crazy if I say I dreamed it, which is what happened.

So I’m coming here for something. Idk what. But I feel so upset because every time I see my friend now I see what happened to her. What was the point of me seeing that? It didn’t happen in advance so I could do anything about it or stop it. Why didn’t I have a dream about my boyfriend cheating before it happened? What’s the point?

I’ve starting abusing substances because in the space of a month a basically watched my friend get assaulted and wasn’t able to do anything about it, and so I keep having flashbacks of it when I see her, and now my relationship with the person I’m supposed to lean on is ruined. And I can’t talk to anyone I know in real life because I sound insane, so I’m just keeping it to myself but I’m just confused and angry, honestly. I’m a SA survivor myself so this has been really fucked up.

Idk what I’m even asking for here. Like I said, I’m just really confused. Like what’s the point of that? Am I actually crazy? What do I do??? Why is it happening?? Does this really happen often to people?

Dreams- a text thread

2026-06-24T18:17:54+00:00

Here is a condensed recap of my dreams last night that I sent to my boyfriend because he was bored in class.

I dreamt that my teacher kissed my friend/classmate

2026-06-25T00:09:56+00:00

the dream as a whole was basically about me, that friend and another friend were just going around campus and finding locations to do our assignment.

though, I don’t exactly remember what happened before that, I somehow only remember the part where we entered a classroom and we found our teacher there. we were consulting him about our assignment and then (the part where I don’t vividly remember) he just kinda made moves on all 3 of us such as by moving closer to al of us and stuff like that… but somehow when it came to that friend, suddenly he leaned into my friend and kissed her.

she was taken aback and all of our eyes widened as we couldn’t process what was happening as it was so sudden. now this is the part where I don’t remember what happened after that but I do remember the part where she began to report him to everyone she knew.

just what kind of dream is this?!

Had this very strange dream

2026-06-24T23:56:08+00:00

A man who is a businessman in the late 1800s or early 1900s wanted to throw the grandest ice-cream party for his daughter and in order to do so leased out his factory/storage house to a conglomerate for 100 years and received a very large sum of money. They had the grandest ice-cream party in history for his daughter's birthday. Then the dream cuts to 100 years later. His descendants are simple average people, maybe even poor, they receive the factory back from the conglomerate which they had no idea about. They then sued the conglomerate for not abiding by the terms and taking care of his descendants.

A strange smell that occurs in my most common nightmare/dream

2026-06-24T23:32:33+00:00

This probably sounds insane but I don’t dream a whole lot. But when I do, it’s one long string of dreams that are incredibly bizarre but always have a thing in common. In these dreams I am trying to navigate somewhere, but I keep taking wrong “turns”, or more like a crescendo of increasingly extremely vivid disturbing moments and then starting over in a new setting. There is always a thick fluid of some kind that shows up, sometimes it is greenish, mostly orange-flesh colored. The fluids build as if a meter for how painful things get visually/tone wise.
And I can smell these dreams super vividly and I wake up often from these dreams and smell the same smell in reality. But the smell goes away and i have never smelled this same scent at any other point in my waking life.
Does this happen to others? It smells like sweet and nutty but also slightly smokey. It’s like the breath of someone who ate a campfire filled with almonds. Anyways these are the only dreams I remember almost completely. I have interpreted these dreams already to my understanding, but that smell thing is so weird and I feel like there is something to it. It would be gnarly if I could smell a certain chemical from the dreams to remind me when I wake up. Idk. These dreams fuck with me for days, they are so brutal but in an abstract way.

Had a nightmare about an evil SCP plant

2026-06-24T23:17:02+00:00

I was in a forest and there was a plant that looked like sirenhead in plant form. If you stood or looked at it,

its flower would open outward to reveal what looks like a satanic bloody mouth then those mouths slowly expand and then you are blown apart into pieces. After the ordeal it dries up and I saw other people watching in horror the torn apart victim.

Saw my Dad in a dream

2026-06-24T23:09:39+00:00

My dad died in 2021 and I NEVER dream about him.

He was building a little girls room. A small little girl had a magic cape on and was doing real magic tricks. My dad treated it as normal. He was mad the place smelled like weed (he did that a lot even when there wasn't a smell).

I don't know if the little girl represented my oldest sister or my other sister that passed before she even left the hospital. Either way it was a really sweet moment.

Family Guy Dream

2026-06-24T17:10:00+00:00

I’ve just woken up. Need to share this before I forget. Had a weird dream that Peter was a talking dog and Quagmire was a talking cats. Quagmire would get captured by evil animal control aliens for some reason. Peter would break in to the animal control prison building to rescue Quagmire. Apparently Quagmire would be having a good time at the prison, though.

He was making weird inappropriate art that the alien animal control people liked. Peter would drag Quagmire out of the building against his will. They’d return to a house and go to the backyard. They’d go through this little cat entrance to see a gang of cats. Specifically tuxedo cats. They wouldn’t pay any mind when Quagmire enters, but they’d growl when Peter enters, seeing as Peter is a dog.

Quagmire would defend Peter by saying “Hey, we all hate billionaires here!”

The cats would leave Peter alone. Then Quagmire and Peter would grab these devices and start destroying stuff.

They’d first destroy an evil billionaire.

Then… the constitution?

Then the Declaration of Independence?

Then they destroy EVERY evil billionaire.

Then they become evil trillionaires.

There’s this moment where Quagmire and Peter and accompanied by one single lady, who’s accompanying Quagmire. Quagmire and Peter are just destroying random stuff with their new device. The lady says something. Quagmire tells her to blow off. Then blows her away with his device into a nearby building.

Then I woke up, confused. I haven’t watched Family Guy in months. less

i dreamt about someone i haven’t spoken to in months & then they messaged me

2026-06-24T22:08:21+00:00

basically the title. i haven’t properly spoken to / seen this person since last year & i dreamt about him last night. couldn’t even tell you what the dream was about, just flashes of random things, the only vivid thing about the dream was him. i remember feeling weird about it when i woke up, only because it had genuinely been a fat minute since i’d thought of him at all and then a few hours passed and i’d gotten a message from him. just finding it very coincidental lol

2026-06-24T22:08:18+00:00

hey guys , i’m so annoyed because i woke up from my super interesting dream today because someone was calling me to get my lazy ass up 🫩 but anyways ! in this dream it was like the hunger games or like alice in borderland if you’ve ever seen it , i was like with a bunch of teens my age and we were thrown into some kind of survival game , and basically we had to escape this hellish kind of realm , there was fire being thrown at us all kinda of weapons and we had to like dodge them and i was clinging onto some sort of metal frame in order to not be affected . i remembered thinking that this game wasn’t even that difficult until the fire hit us and the thing went up in flames . me and this dude in the dream even went up to like the game supervisors and asked them to buckle our armor in so that it doesn’t come loose during the game . honesty this dream is pretty symbolic because it shows how im struggling to keep myself together in my daily life , i feel like im on survival mode right now just like i was in this dream . i knew this was a dream too while i was dreaming because i wasnt afraid of getting harmed at all , and it ended when i got a phone call right as we were about to escape from that place . so what do you guys think about this ?

Helping I lock eyes with my ex, but she’s different she has a few stripes of dyed hair, it going down form her root to the end of her hair, the stripped colour was greyish to brown, I could tell she knew I also saw her yet I kept helping with the moving, we walked passed each other a few times my back was turned to her as I helped move some chairs, then it was lunch so I looked for my friend Khyle I went inside the gym I decided to slide across the floor I then asked the gym teacher if he had seen my friend Khyle he said he hadn’t then I headed outside to the outside of the cafeteria, which was right next to the gym, next to a few chairs and tables I saw kanuj, I saw Khyle on a ladder throwing basket balls at near the top of one of the buildings trying to hit a basketball off, as I approached I saw this guy named Logan he was choking Baylin who had tears whe I approached they stopped then Khyle and and laynton also appeared, lynton said he can’t believe that me and Khyle failed year 12 I said huh what I literally graduated and lynton started saying stuff like our degree only counts as year 12 not completed and I saw Khyle’s expression the one where he’s finds something unbelievable where he covers his mouth with his jumper but is smiling I then started to remember my ex
