Unnerving Dream
Sep. 22nd, 2003 07:53 amI guess I fell asleep on the sofa. Here is the dream:
There was something in the tone and resonance of the voice that work me up terrified. The voice left a chill down my spine, my heart racing, gasping for breath with the adrenalin rush that I usually only get from deeply terrifying nightmares. 15 minutes later, the voice is still haunting the edges of my thoughts.
I am staying in a house, but many of the rooms are "locked off" to the visitors. There are many people there I do not know. I am given a key to one of the rooms for my stay. I feel sick, and a woman helps me to my room. I tell her I want to say good night to my son. We go to another room, he's already sleeping. I lean over some people and kiss him goodnight. Then I stumble out of the room and through another door. This place is frightening and dark. I am "floating" there and as I go forward there are paper thin shards hanging from the roof of this place that sound like chimes then shatter as I touch them, cutting me to pieces. As I progress forward, there is a large forbodding fellow in a hooded cloak. I run past him but see more creatures like him (only smaller) and other things I can not readily identify. As we move forward, the larger creature sets to following me, this makes all the smaller ones flee in various directions. Though it isn't a running and screaming, more like a hasty retreat. He catches up to me and says to me that I will let him back through the door with the item he needs, which I apparently possess. When we get close to the exit, I drop it and it breaks. I call the pieces too me and open the door and tell him that if he wants it he will have to search just like I did, then I throw them into the expanse past the door and he goes after it. I slipped past and go to get my son and check out of the place. I start to go to the man at the front and then realize I don't have my key. We go back to the room, and while I am searching around and beneath things, a fly starts to buzz around me. I try shooing it, but it gets right up to my ear, buzzing loudly, then a haunting, I mean haunting female voice whispers in dire need to be heard, "There is something I must tell you."

How utterly intriguing and terrifying.

It's not the same, but there's definate recurring themes.
Why do I keep feeling like someone is walking over my grave?

Quite peculiar. The only dream that I remember from last night is that a mutual friend on LJ of Selena and I called and left a message to say "Hi" though we've never met this person or exchanged phone numbers.
Of course, the veil is thinning and today seems to be heralding the coming of fall.
It could all be coincidental, but still all quite interesting to ponder! >;)~

Thanks for your support though! *many hugs*
