Dream spinoff

Are there certain dreams that you remember from a long time ago?

I had one particularly scary dream when I was a little girl. I had a clown on my shelf that always reminded me of the one from Poltergeist. In my dream, it grabbed my hand and flew me down the hall into my parents room and threatened to kill me while hovering above their bed I was so scared!!!

But, I also had a wonderful dream shortly after my grandfather died. In real life, I had always been upset that I hadn't seen my grandfather for about 2 weeks before he died. I was almost 13 and I was wrapped up in Junior high and sports and friends, etc. So, in my dream, I was in a museum on a school field trip. The room was very dark and had a huge tank built into the wall with fish in it. My class moved through the room, but I stayed behind. Suddenly, my grandfather came through the opposite door that the class just left through. He walked towards me and hugged me - didn't even say anything. And then he turned around and walked out the same door he came in through. IT just left me with such a feeling of peace and made me feel like he came to say goodbye.

Wow....that just gave me chills!!

My recurring scary dream, since childhood, is that a Lion or Tiger escapes from the zoo, and is wandering my neighborhood...and I always see it coming closer and even though I'm in the house, I feel like it can get in and get me....scary......I think I was eaten by a tiger in my former life...hehe...

I vividly remember a nightmare I had when I was 7, and several I had in high school. I also remember most of my flying dreams because they were usually so bizarre!

My grandfather died when I was 9 and I dreamt that one of my brothers woke me up crying saying 'grampa died, grampa died.' In that dream I saw my grandfather standing in the hallway, just outside my door, looking right at me. I then really woke up to my bother crying because my grandfather had died.

My favorite uncle died when I was 18 and the morning of his funeral, me and 6 of my immediate family members had identical dreams about him.

YES! AND i can have the same dream over and over (not consecutively of course)

Me too!

I still have the same one I had when I was little every now and then:

In the dream we are trying to escape from our house in Philadelphia (I don't know why) and I have to drive my family to get away from whatever it is. I don't know how to drive (I'm still about 5 years old in the dream) and I am pushing on all the pedals to get the car to move. Finally it starts, but I can't see over the dash, so I wind up crashing into a playground and this shadow comes up over us and takes my mom and dad and I'm left there to run away but I can't find my sister in the back of the car (she was a newborn then). So I just take the empty car seat with me and try to hide in the school. I jump into a cubby hole and try to cover myself, but the black shadowy thing finds me and as he pulls the car seat from my hands and throws it to come get me, I wake up.

My Grandmother died in 1996, and my uncle died suddenly last year. Right after his death, I had a dream that I was at my other grandmother's house, and for some reason I woke up in her bed, I jumped up and was like, Grandma, I'm sorry, I dont even remember coming over here....why didnt you kick me out and make me sleep in the guest room??

So I go into the bathroom and in the mirror looking back at me is this woman in blue, grey hair pulled back...so I screamed....scary to see someone in a mirror.....my mother and grandma come running in, and the woman starts speaking to them in German (I'm German, but neither of them speak German, nor I) and they just kind of nodded like they understood...so they leave and I look back at the woman, and she says something to me in German and I just look at her and said 'No sprechen ze deutch'...she laughed and then moved to the side and I saw my grandma that passed in 96 standing behind her.....first and only dream I've ever had with her....was so strange.

So, I told my dad that dream, and he started to ask me questions about the woman in the mirror....and he said its sounded an aweful lot like his neighbor growing up, only spoke German and was friends with my grandma.....WEIRD!!!!

I had the strangest reoccuring dream when I was little as well. I was in a red square room in one corner. In the opposite corner was a man with a square head, two slits for eyes and a tiny mouth. When I closed my eyes and opened them, he would take a step closer. I would keep opening and closing my eyes...like I had no control, until his face was pressed up against my face. I would always wake up screaming.

I know, that's bizarre...maybe that's why I'm claustrophobic...
