[Dream Journal] - Subconsciously InSANE

Let me kick this diary off with a nightmare. Like I said in my first post, I almost never get these. One of my fears, if not my only fear, is the paranormal, funny enough. I fear the unknown darkness, or the feeling of being watched when nobody is there. Throw me in a genuinely haunted place, and I'll start shaking. This dream is the most paranormal dream I've ever experienced. It felt so real that just the feelings I experienced in the dream alone made me shoot awake. It was super powerful.

The Stairway to Hell
January ??, 2010

So there we were. Me, and six of my friends were chatting away in Taylor's kitchen, who was one of those friends. I can remember every single one of the people who were there. I don't remember exactly what we were talking about when we were there, but I do remember the excitement that followed after he said the following sentence, which I remember perfectly: "Guys, let's go downstairs!"

Now, this wasn't the downstairs of his house that you accessed by a short flight of stairs. We went outside the kitchen, into the garage, and came to an elevator on the side of the house. This elevator only exists in this dream, but I didn't know that. It felt like it was supposed to be there, but I had no idea where it went. I was excited, but I had not the slightest expectation of what was about to happen.

The elevator went down floor, after floor, after floor...after floor...after floor. As I recall the inside of the elevator, there were quadruple digits on the floor numbers. We were going down at least 1000 stories, or well over 10000 feet. Me and all my friends talked excitedly inside the elevator. The conversations were light hearted and fun, something you would experience walking around the mall. Noting seemed even remotely frightening here.

Before you knew it, the elevator stopped, and the door opened. In front of us was the landing of a wooden spiral staircase. How could an elevator, who already took us down over 10000 feet, still couldn't reach the bottom? This question ringed through my mind when I got out. However, none of my other friends even said a word about this, like they already knew about it, and they did things like this every day.

Down the staircase we went. It creaked under all our thundering footsteps, which echoed for hundreds of feet below us. As I looked over the railing while we ran down the staircase, I couldn't even see the bottom. It was shrouded in darkness. The staircase reminds me heavily of the staircase at the local pool that leads up to the waterslide. The staircase was soaked with water.

I remember us running down the staircase for a while, and then all of a sudden I got this feeling I walking into a freezer. I could remember seeing my breath, but not shivering. I was just aware of how cold it was, but I wasn't too affected by it. A little further, these windows started to appear. The windows were square at the bottom, and arched at the top. Outside, all I could see was black. Nothing else.

Then the floor started to freeze over. Then there were no more railings. As we about reached the bottom, I felt a new kind of feeling. Along with the coldness, I felt a horrible sensation I was being followed by something. I was bringing up the rear of the pack of my friends, so nobody was behind me. The feeling was so terrible that I ran ahead and ran in the middle, so I no longer was in last.

Then we reached the bottom. The landing was cement, and the exit was a normal sized doorway a short distance away. I looked out the windows on the landing, and I could see a purple haze swirling around. I remember seeing it then quickly looking away, because it startled me. Did I just see something move out there? Nah, couldn't be. I kept walking.

At last, we exited the gigantic staircase. When I stepped out, the most frightening scene I have ever experienced in a dream was before my eyes. We were in the midst of a HUUUUUGE room. The room was circular, and black doors lined the room every ten feet or so. The ceiling was so high, you couldn't see it. But you could see the elevator/staircase shaft. It rose though the center of the gigantic room like a three-mile high square pillar. Up high in the room were giant windows with stars visible on the outside. How were there windows 10000+ feet underground? I do not know.

All along the ground, there were couches, chairs, mattresses, and other furniture. But they were all scattered about, like an earthquake hit the area multiple times. Many of them were on their sides, some broken, and some torn apart. A constantly moving purple mist hovered above everything. The room was dark, but light enough to see about a hundred feet in front of me. The rest was pitch black.

I saw shadows darting throughout the room. I felt like I was being possessed, because the cold that drenched me was incredible. I kept seeing hostile faces flash before my eyes. Some doors starting opening by themselves, and I saw creatures emerge from them. But they disappeared too quickly, so I couldn't even see what they were. Everything was looking at me, because they knew I was the only one who truly feared them all.

I heard moans, whispers, and I think I even remember hissing. I couldn't even hear what any of my friends were saying. I was paralyzed with fear.

At this point I woke up.

Keep in mind, I couldn't fall back asleep for two hours. I remember going upstairs to my room, because I fell asleep on the couch in the basement. The house seemed colder than usual. Maybe it was just because it was January.

This was just part ONE of my dream. The continuation of my dream happened two night later, like a part two of a movie. I'll post that later today, because I have to go now. Thanks for reading!

Here's another past dream I think you guys will find really odd and interesting. I know it happened right after I graduated high school in 2009, because it had someone in it I became friends with at grad night.

The Neighborhood Kidnapping
May ??, 2009

I can't remember where the dream started off, but I know I was with my girlfriend, who happened to be Ashley Tisdale. We were just cuddling or something, when she was kidnapped by none other than my next door neighbor. Now keep in mind, my next door neighbor was quite a nasty lady. She's threatened several people and even chased some people away from living up here. She's wasn't nice in any sense.

Ashley was dragged up a dirt hill by my neighbor, where I just stood having a meltdown. I was rooted to the spot, and couldn't chase after her. But I was affected really strong emotionally.

So I went home and told my family at home, where a bunch of other people were gathered. The crowd comprised of my neighbors who all had the same problem as me, because their loved ones too had too been kidnapped by the evil neighbor. I heard that the prisoners were being kept at her mansion on top of the hill, where they would all be eaten soon. We had to hatch a plan.

I don't remember what happened after this, but I do remember a short while later ending up in a chase scene with my neighbor. We were in buggies in Outback Australia, racing along some dirt roads. I was driving, and my new friend I met at grad night was sitting in the passenger seat. Finally, I ran into her, and overturned her vehicle. She flew out, and I walked up to her.

But it wasn't my neighbor at all! It was actually this one black dude I saw at my friend's birthday party several years ago, disguised as my next door neighbor. He apologized for kidnapping everyone, and I remember feeling great sympathy for him. Why I was forgiving someone who was trying to eat my celebrity girlfriend, I do not know, but I did.

Everyone else forgave him, and we became friends. Everyone was released, and I remember feeling overjoyed. The dream ended perfectly with the sun setting, and me and Ashley Tisdale walking together in the crowd talking about random things.

I woke up, to the sun shining outside, wondering what in the world I just dreamed.

However, though, my next door neighbor has really greatly improved since then. She's become a lot nicer, and no longer complains at anyone that I know of. She's even waved a smiled at me a few times while I was doing yardwork outside. Maybe perhaps the black dude who apologized in this dream was a sign she was going to start becoming more friendly. Who knows?!

Thanks for your valuable input, Endless Ages. =)

Premonition, eh? That's interesting. I don't want to say I have those kinds of mental capabilities, but the coincidence is odd.

Kingx2!

You have outdone yourself mate!

I love the header of your journal, it's excellent!

Very creative, very dream-like, and very well-done!

You are quite the graphics' artist aren't you?

Here's a dream I had recently. It's one of those strange dreams you swear is a real place you've been to before, but you don't know exactly where it is. This is also a dream I don't believe I had for sevreal years before I had it recently.

Childhood Playground
January ??, 2011

The setting of this dream had desert-like foliage, which looked exactly like the area around my town. I remember you had to walk on a short trail to get to the playground, with trees and bushes around you.

The playground was unique, with a tree in the middle. It had a couple picnic benches beneath it. The playground also had monkey bars, swings, a tire swing, and a whole jungle gym. It was quite a cool little place. In my recent dream it also had a trampoline, which I'm pretty sure didn't belong there.

On the trampoline was some opened bags of chips, that expired back in 2004. So it's like this place was abandoned for nearly seven years before I found it again in the dream.

Really strange. Could this be an actual place I last visited in 2004, or is it just a figment of my imagination?

This was an interesting dream I had last night. Don't know if it means anything, but everything finally went my way for once. That rarely happens in my dreams. =)

Back Up
February 6, 2011

There was this girl I used to have a huge thing for in high school, but she was ALWAYS taken. She's one of those girls you would feel stupid to try and do anything with, because if a guy were to get her, he really must be something special. When she was single, she acted like she still had the hots for someone but just wouldn't be straightforward about it. She had absolute CLASS, and was easily the most beautiful girl in the school. I talked to her quite a few times and had no problem doing so, but that's about as far as I got.

So in this dream, we knew each other a bit more than real life, and we were on a date. I can't remember exactly how it went, but I do remember dancing in a big room. She was having a good time, but not as good as I wish she could have been having. At the end, I remember kissing her and she was telling me how I shouldn't have done it, because I've done too many bad things to deserve her to like me.

So she starts naming off all these false accusations that I never did. She starts naming off past things I've actually done in real life that embarrassed me, the people I have hurt, and the stupid things I have said. She basically points out every thought about me that I have.

Then the room starts filling up with people. This one kid who I used to go to school with shot down some of those accusations, saying I didn't do any of them at all. Then another girl I know came in and told her "everyone makes mistakes" and then left. Then I start telling her things and showing her random photographs about how the stuff she was saying was not true. Everyone around me was talking to this girl, telling how wrong she's been about everything she's been saying. Everyone was backing me up.

By the end of the dream, I remember her staring at me and just smiling.

Aaaaand then came the morning light.

Any dream interpreters out there have any idea what this could mean?

Thanks for the interpretation!

I don't really have the hots for her anymore like I used to, because she lives like 500 miles away now for one. Cool dream though. =)
