no specific strange dream stands out but sometimes I feel like in real life something happens to me or someone I know and feel like I've dreamt about it before. Other times I'll be falling in a dream and wake up right as I hit the ground and as I do my head hits the pillow. 😱

that falling thing always happens to me too! i'll bet it's aliens doing experiments and returning us to our beds... haha

um, ive had some really weird dreams, i cant remember any of them though... damn, there were some good ones too, i remember they were good, but not what they are... have you ever had it where you wake up, but you dont open your eyes, and your dream is still vivid id your mind, and then you open your eyes, you forget the whole dream...
 
I had a really interesting dream that was set partly in a Half life 2 world (even though I havent played it :Q) and my grandmothers pasture.

anyway. we started off at some urban area. and we were running from some kind of enemy. and we came to a courtyard. and I was gonna run as fast as I could across it and hope I would make it. well the rest of my group told me no and that we would have to walk around. Well somehow I ended up at my grandmothers pasture. my group had disappeared except for one of them. and then we started to run into the woods. and for some reason we ran up on a plant. which was pretty thin and far off the ground. and I was falling behind because my friend was a cross country runner and I couldnt keep up. and then these dogs came out of nowhere and they were pretty mean looking. all over the place and barking and snarling. well we came to a gap in the plank and the dude jumped over fine. but I didnt want to. I think I finally did but one of the dogs grabbed my pant leg. :Q

that one was strange cause it scared me 😛 and then when I tryed to go to sleep I would start to dream it over again. so I had to force myself to dream something else 😛

Iv had other ones with floating lawn mowers :Q and then theres the ones where the hit yourself on the stairs and you jump pretty hard when you wake up and hurt yourself 🙁
 
heres my weirdest dream, happened about 3 weeks ago:

im at home on a saturday; i somehow find out that my sister has strangled my brother james (someone called, dont recall who)
my reaction: why the hell did she do that? how am I going to get any music now? (james spends alot of time online checking out music)
sunday; somehow, never happens.
monday: im working, not really thinking about it; then I go to my parents for lunch to see my younger brother, mark (i usually get some takeout on mondays and go hang there on my lunch break) and he says "hey, did you hear about james?" and I reply: "oh you mean how he died, you fvcking retard? of course I HEAR ABOUT MY BROTHER BEING STRANGLED BY MY SISTER
his reply? "oh yeah...ok whats for lunch?" :/

so later that monday I see this sister; and ask her why she did it
her answer? "well, he was being a jerk, and would shut the hell up when I was doing something; and it just got really annoying so i strangled him"

the dream ended shortly thereafter with nothing else i can remember

Preface: I'm a med student.

Story: I had a dream I did an autopsy on one of the guys in my medical school class. I don't really know him that well and don't really talk to him much. Unfortunately I can't remember the pathological findings I found during the autopsy 😛
 
Had a dream once where there was an older lady sitting in a chair, and some middle aged guy with a gun. Looked like a revolver, but he shot her point blank in the face about 50 times, until the blood, skin, and tissue was dripping off of her face, and all that was left was her skull, and from the neck down, it was still normal looking, but she obviously died.

^ That was probably the wierdest ones, and happened probably 3 days ago.

Also had a couple where I could breathe under water with no mask on, for an unlimited time, but in one (last swimming one ever) in the dream, I thought I was drowning because I couldn't breathe underwater anymore, and I woke up, and my pillow was stuffed in my mouth.
 
Had a dream where I went to my high school AP Calc class, and it was somehow a meat shop. Operated by Nazis. Who were selling the flesh of female porn stars... with the pics of the porn stars on the class display (picture baskin robbins type set-up, with the pics in place of the ice cream flavor names).

I was freaked out by this and the Nazis chase me down the street all the way to the beach. I evade them on the beach, then later on sharks were swimming in the sand chasing me.
 
Also had one where I was a fugitive in some farm-y type area like in "Oh Brother Where Art Thou?". I am running the whole time but these farmers catch me behind some barn and one holds a shotgun to the back of my head and the other holds one against my back pointing at my heart, while I'm lying face down on the ground and they both shoot at the same time. That put to rest the myth that if you die in a dream do you die in real life.
 
i had a dream i was mowing the lawn... and a rock shot out the direct back of the mower and hit me in the chest and kiilled me....

My other bad dream was one where i was trapped in a house, paralised, and it was burning down around me....

what do you feel when you die in a dream? 😕

do you keep dreaming?

I did keep dreaming, there was a big burst and everything went black, but my consciousness was still there and I started reflecting on my sad death (killed like a crook in the dirt of a pig pen behind a barn). Hahahaha. Almost all my dreams are really weird, and don't make too much sense.

EDIT: Spelling mistake
 
I had really strange but realistic dream (nightmare?) that the devil was trying to tempt me.

He came in the representation of people. Three of them to be exact. Tall, lanky men dressed in all black clothing. Preacher style like the guy in Poltergeist II. They were very thin, about 8-9 feet tall I'd say. Moved like a "waddle" sort of thing like you'd see people on stilts in marilyn manson videos. One of them had a beard, black pits for eyes and rotted teeth. The other was Kain from Poltergeist II look-alike (but not the exact same). Third guy was John Shooter from the movie "Secret Window".

Anyhow, the whole dream was about them being outside a building, or across some barrier from me. They were trying to lure me over. Came speaking of God and saying I was destined for hell unless I repent with them. They moved very mechanical-like. Really GD scary as hell. They could never get up close to me though because I had to "accept" them or something.

First visit: I was in a building and they were walking towards it but I wouldn't leave the building. I didn't "see" them but could feel their presence. They wanted something from me and I couldn't find what they wanted--but I was supposed to protect whatever it was and I knew that.

Second visit: The bearded one was across a narrow stream from me and beckoning me to come over. I wouldn't cross the water...he "couldn't" so I was safe. This one scared me the most. Picture that movie The Ring only worse by a billion times and made realistic by your dreaming brain. An 8 foot tall man with a beard and all black suit moving mechanically back and forth, yelling at you to cross the water.

Third visit: I was transposed inside a big camp-style bunk house. We were eating dinner (a bunch of people from real life I know...about 50 people in this house). I saw this girl I like in real life but was unable to speak to her because I felt so "low" when I'd see her...put her on this huge pedestal (which I still do I guess). Anyhow I turned around and started talking to my best friend (mother died in real life). I wanted to tell him I'm sorry about his mother. But it wasn't my friend..instead an angel came in his body so I would feel comfortable. The angel said there is a house being built in God's kingdom for everyone but things must still be set right first. Soooo then I'm eating dinner in my parents house on a hot summer night. Raised bunaglow. We are sitting by the dining room and the third encounter happens. The lookalike guy from "Secret Window" comes whistling and walks straight towards the front window in our dining room. He starts yelling through it at me. Picture a guy who is standing on the ground looking face-to-face in a window that is 8 feet off the ground. He had a bible in his hands and kept slapping it against his side when I would not come out to him.

Man I just had chills typing that out. I hated those encounters.

Edit: to clarify I'm not religious either. So it wasn't induced by anything church or belief related 🙂

I have a recurring dream that I can fellate myself (I'm serious). It's not all that arousing or anything, and I never finish - the tone of the dream is just wonder, as in "well I'll be damned, I didn't think I could do this".

easy there
 
I think when I was really little I had this really funky dream. The only thing I remember is X-Men with Gambit, Storm, Wolverine, etc. And flying carpets
 
I went crazy one time in a dream, put on my tabby's and full gear (ninja gear), and went on an all night killing spree through the neighborhood, then someone shot me with a 12ga. and I woke up.
 
had a dream of flying through downtown tacoma, ish.. but it looked dank, and old and rusty (think Coal Harbor NFSU:2 fans 😛)
but, it was sureal, i could fly, kinda had wings, and i had to run really fast.
we even had our own little air strip patch where it was clear of debris etc..
this happened when i was um.. 12 - 14
wish i could fly 🙁
 
I can't dream, everytime i dream i feel my self falling somehow in the dream (in my dreams i have the balence of a drunk 90yr old with .6 BOC) then i have a nice little fullbody jump out of my bed (every muscle tenses and i jump up a little off my bed) and im like WTF!?!?!?! everytime.

edit: oh yea, im not sure if i was dreaming or hallucinating, but i sometimes see stuff around me, clowns, people, police, ballons, food, see myself in another room. i guess thats the closest thing to a weirdest dream.

I dreamed that Meg Ryan and my wife were fighting over me and my wife was winning. 🙁

Be very, very glad....Meg Ryan is an old, mean, chain-smoking witch. Bunch of my friends were extras in one of her movies, and one of them talked to her a few times.

As for mine, my dreams are ALWAYS wierd. Most of the time they don't even take place on this PLANET, much less anywhere familiar to me, or with familiar logic/scientific laws/whatever.

I had one that DID occur on earth where I was driving an old Land-Rover (like the type you see The Gods Must be Crazy), with my sister in the passenger's seat. I was about 10 at the time. Anyway, we're bouncing up and down these hills at a really good clip, and the whole car is rattling around and almost falling apart. For no reason I think, "Oh, wouldn't it be cool if I just steered to the right?" and so I did. The thing ran into a house and fell apart with a huge explosion, but we were fine. My sister said "We'd better get out of here", so we started walking through the jungle. All of a sudden one of our dogs showed up and was walking with us. We were walking down a dirt road (bright red dirt), and for some reason it was foggy or something because I couldn't see very far. All of a sudden the dog takes off barking, and my sister told me to run because there was a jaguar. So I fly up into the air using a swimming motion, but unfortunately I can't fly any higher than six feet or so, no matter how hard I paddle. I could hear the jaguar below me, but couldn't see it because of the fog. I KNEW it was in range of me...

I woke up and the room was pitch black. It took me a while to get back to sleep, IIRC.
