Hospital

Dream

I work at a hospital, however I was in a completely different one. I had my PPE on, which is just protective wear and I was in a basement in a morgue, the hallways were empty and so was the morgue. I open up a small body bag to see a small two year old that has passed away inside. It made my heart sad to see this toddler that’s a girl dead. I place her gently on the autopsy table and I get a weird feeling that she’s still alive. Her eyes are closed but I can see faint breathing. I start questioning why they would bring an alive child down to the morgue. The girls body starts moving like either my mind is playing tricks on me, or her… she opens her eyes and smiles at me. As I debate my next move as to whether I should call a nurse, I think to myself “well no one is here at this hospital…” as I’m thinking that suddenly the girl turns pale. Her eyes close and become extremely bruised and purple and pink it looks like there was a lot of damage done to her eyes. I go to close them because I can’t stand looking at them, but they keep opening back up. At this point I’m feeling very anxious, mortified, and confused as to what to do… I’m used to seeing dead babies at my job but this was the first time they’ve been this much older. I wake up, and I’m freaking out - I’m very anxious and don’t want to return to this dream. I eventually go back to bed. I’m driving in my car, my old fiat and it seems like a ghost town. I start driving towards this unknown hospital again and when I get there I have this dread inside of me like I don’t want to go in and experience the haunted morgue and this two year old that keeps frightening me. I’m sitting in this empty parking lot when I have the realization that I don’t have to go in there… I immediately leave and don’t look back.

Scream

Dream

Started by being next to an old church, a man dressed as a police officer from mid-1800s was stood there keeping everyone back who also appeared to be from the mid-1800's. People were talking about a body being found in the grave yard around the church and whispers of murder. After a while a man and two children, looking around 5 and 10, led me away, and the children headed home as we separated and I went with the man. It jumped to the following morning and I was once again going to the church. Another child was there, young around 6 or 7. I approached and asked where the original 2 children were, as I had the feeling I was expecting them there. He took me by the hand and led me to the graveyard where I saw them both through mist and just started screaming 'No' over and over. Dream ended as I dropped to my knees.

Dream

I was on the street and I remember seeing my brother and a lady next to a car and feeling very uncomfortable and scared. I looked towards my brother and I remember seeing the lady and a man dressed in all dark clothing to conceal his identity shoot a gun and the bullet went through her head leaving her body limp and sliding down the front of her car. I was filled with extreme fear. Then I was oddly in my grandma’s white Lincoln and she was driving wearing some black outfit. She parked and took me with her to a front door of brown brick building with a black door and knocked. It was a funeral parlor and though she didn’t tell me I knew she was trying to schedule her death. No one answered. I could feel my heart beating through my chest and tears filling my eyes as I heard her continue to knock no one answered. I knew I didn’t want her to go in there and I didn’t want anything to do with all this loss. Everything went dark and I don’t know if my grandma ever walked into that building.

Grandpa
Scream

Dream

I was in a motorhome and I was broke. I needed some money. I called my dad, like I used to do when he was alive. I told him I had worked a little bit that day and was going to work more the next day, but I hadn't worked. He told me "people don't work today." I looked at my watch and it said it was new years day. Then i was standing in front of my dad and he was standing in the doorway of a motorhome that it seemed he was living in. My grandpa came up and said "no work today or tomorrow." In the dream my grandpa still had hair but it was gray and he was much younger, maybe in his 40s or 50s. My dad looked the same as he did in his late 40s when I asked him to borrow money, but then after my gpa said that, my dad said he didn't have any money. So I said "ok ill ask my nanny." So we all started walking to go see my nanny. While we were walking, we crossed paths with a young version of my dad, maybe in his late 20's or early 30's. I asked him "is this what you look like now dad?" All he said was "come on." So, my older dad, my younger dad, my younger grandpa, and I went looking for my nanny. We came across a field and I could see someone standing in it. I immediately knew this person was dead, so I though it must be my grandma, since my dad and grandpa were with me. She was standing with her back to me. (Both my dad and my grandma have passed on in real life, although my grandpa is still alive.) I called out to her from across the field and started walking closer to her, however, once I was close enough, I could see that this person did not have short, dark, curly hair like my grandma, this person had short, gray, almost straight hair. I realized as I was approaching that it was not my grandma and I wondered who it was. As I got close, she turned around and it was my nanny (who is alive in real life), only she had a missing eye. There was no eye patch just an empty socket. The dream had a very ominous feel at this point. She was wearing her usual capri style pants but with a large loose shirt a shawl that were flapping in the wind. All of her clothing was dark (she usually wears bright colors). I said "nanny?" As the realization that she was dead sunk in, and I said "but you're dead...." and then I screamed "NANNY!" in a heart wrenching wail, and I embraced her as my dad's and grandpa watched then I woke up

Dream

I was walking home with a group of girls, a girl and I walked a bit further away of them after some time, then we heard a loud scream, I rushed back to the group and one girl was laying on the floor and another girl was kicking her head over and over again, everywhere was blood and the girl on the floor was dead, then the girl who murdered her walked away in a different direction and everyone else of the group was standing in a circle, one of the girls who was standing in the circle was laughing histeracly and all the other girls were completely calm. I started running away from them and a group of boys came out of a house, I asked one of the boys if I can call the police with their phone, but every time I put the number in it was always wrong and I couldn’t get the number right, I was freaking out and asked one of the boys to put the number in and then I woke up

Torture
Escape
Police
Sister
Children

Dream

I guess it started when I figured out that my parents were found dead by some people who were after us. I took my sister and found a place to hide with this single mother and her kid, we heard the door knocking and we didn’t open it, thinking it was the person who was after us and try to kill us. Then I suggested that me and my sister sleep under the bed so we wouldn’t get caught so easily. Then this random person found us and took us to a secret hide out. But we got caught by the person and got taken away, I saw the person trying to protect us getting tortured, I tried to fight back against the people who held me back to punch the person torturing the person who tried to save us and trying to have my sister back close to me. But then we heard a phone, this guy called the police and the people let us go and went to that person. They killed the person brutally, the choked him and punched him to death. Then I started running, I grabbed my sister as we started running out of the building, there was also a bunch of kids running out as well. Then the FBI came and said we were finally safe. I pushed my sister in front of me as we were running to get out of the building, and as we were finally able to escape, I turn my head to see a corpse of a person’s face ripped off their body.
