I was walking down the street when I saw something in the bushes. I was comming back from a party and it was very late. There were three street lights on and I remember them shining really bright near the bushes. All of a sudden I saw a white and purple skunk. Shortly enough it sprayed me. People across the street just came home from dinner and saw me. They took me into their house and I took an oatmeal bath. It didnt help. I smelt like a skunk for the next few months.

This dream always occurs when I have something important to get up for the next morning. I just dream that I am trying get a good nights sleep for the next day. However, I end up sleeping through my alarm and missing whatever it was I had to get up for whether it is work, school, or some kind of appointment. I go into a huge panic and that is usually when I wake up.

This was a very wierd dream in a very wierd place, although while I was having the dream nothing seemed out of place. The house I am wandering through is huge, dirty, and very dark in various places. It has a lot of curves and twists as you turn the corners, kind of like a maze. I see my cousins and my family in this house. I cannot recall if they lived in the house, or if my family did. I'm not even sure if it was both our families living together. I remember I was hiding in the room, peeking through the door watching my cousins and sister getting yelled at by my aunt for not having cleaned up the house. I remember being afraid of my aunt and hiding from her wrath whenever possible. Everyeones faces were dirty with something brown, most likely dirt. I do not know if i also looked like them because I could not see myself. They looked out of place and they scared me the first time I saw them. Me, my cousins, and sister sneak out of the house at the middle of the night when it is pitch black outside. We wander the street searching for something. I do not remember what I was searching for, but I do know we were searching frantically going from one house to the other.

Ben your dream is very similar to some of the dreams I have. At times I dream about the improtant tasks I have to do the next day. I dream that I am doing them or am having trouble comepleting them. I think that people have such dreams because we are thinking over and over again of the day to come and how we will get everything done on time, or if we will even wake up on time.

okay so i've read all of these dreams and all of these comments posted, but my dream is a lot different and kinda scary to be honest lol. Anyway, my dream takes place in a run down appartment and does anyone remember that creepy doll named chucky? yeah well he's chasing me around. However, every time the dream re-occurs it picks up where it left off. I don't remember every single detail from the dream and it doesn't happen too often but I do remember I am being chased around by this chucky doll. It's really strange and really creepy. lol

In my dream, I am always seem to be very worried and running away from something, whether it is someone or an event that is supposed to happen. I always try to face it and for some reason I end up turning away. In one certain dream, I was running away from a guy who seemed to want to date me and I wasn't interested. He didn't seem satisfied with the answer no, but I continued to run away. I ended up running away from him. Also, everytime I run away from something I always end up back at my house or school or work. Those are the three places in which I feel the most comfortable. I know I am running from something, but not quite sure what I am running from.

So I have this dream every once in a while. It always takes place at home in my hometown, where I grew up so the setting is familiar. I am always with someone that I know and it is a different person each time. I never know what we are doing or talking about but I leave and run away, jump and fly away. I am literally flying and I can go where ever I want. I think the dream is just about being free and having fun.

I am in my bed sleeping and I wake up to a t-rex outside my window. I can see my brother, sister, mom and dad out in the front yard. As they try to run, the dinosaur sees them and eats them. I scream and run outside to help but the dinosaur comes after me. I run through my neighbors yard and stands in their drive way to wake up. I always wake up crying.

I haven’t had this dream in a while but it used to be a pretty frequent one. It takes place at my old house where I lived till I was seven, in Haverhill. In the dream I’m really young and my mom, my younger brother, and I had just gotten home from somewhere. I fell asleep on the way home and it was a nice summer day out so my mom decided to let me nap a little in the car while her and my brother played in the driveway. My mom parked the car at the end of our driveway, blocking my brother from going into the street. Next thing I know I suddenly wake up I hear a loud slamming noise, it was the car doors, and then a synchronized clicking noise and all the doors are locked. Slowly the car starts rolling down the steep hill we lived on, and very slowly it keeps on gaining speed next thing I know were going faster and faster (and in real life this hill isn’t this long but in the dream it just keeps on going). I’m trying so hard to get out of my car seat but I can’t. Finally I see an intersection on a main road at the bottom of the hill and there’s one Mack truck after another speeding by both ways. Just before the car goes through the intersection and basically would’ve gotten crushed, I wake up.

Here is a re-occuring dream I have had in the past few weeks. I start off on top of a very tall building. I am not sure where this is, or why I am there however I do know that it is always a losing battle with the wind. For some reason I feel compelled to get blown off of the side. I have tried to figure this part out. I fly off of the side of the building and the worst part of the dream, isnt that I wake up when I lose control of the building, but right before I hit the street below.

I havn't had this dream in years but its the only re-occuring dream I'v ever had.Im climbing a mountain and fall into a crevice in the middle of the trail. I land in a stream and the current is pulling me towards a wall. At the end where the wall is I see a box and its pulling me in, I look inside it and all there is is scattered bones inside. Immediately after I would always wake up scared.

I used to have this dream alot when I was little. I was in the stairwell of a very tall building. I was being chased up the stairs by a large dinosaur with big teeth and long sharp claws. I would run as fast as I could screaming up those stairs. When I finally came to a landing on the fourth or fifth floor, the dinosaur would corner me. Then it seemed that I was no longer in my body and was watching this dinosaur corner a little girl and just when it was going to eat her, I would wake up screaming in a cold sweat. My heart would be racing like I had just run a marathon. Needless to say I had trouble going back to sleep afterwards.

It is nice to see that I am not the only one with scary dinosaur dreams!

I began having this dream when I was about 3 or 4 and it continued until I was about 9. I'm pretty sure that it is the only recurring dream I have ever had.

I'm in my house with my Dad and all of a sudden I become filled with fear and I realize that outside there is a huge wolf that for some reason I know is trying to kill me and my Dad. I can see him out the bay window of the living room so I crawl down onto the floor hoping that he cannot see me. Somehow I notice that my Dad's friend's truck with a plow is out in the front yard and the wolf is somewhere out of sight. My Dad and I scramble to the truck hoping to not get attacked by the wolf and drive as far away from it as we can. The next thing I know my Dad and I are in a city. We are walking down the street now and we go into this nice restaurant. We sit down and are very relieved we have escaped the wolf, but suddenly the horrible fear returns and i see the wolf in the windows of the restaurant snarling and thirsting for our blood. The entire front wall is made of glass so I can see him very well. My father and I jump onto the table we are sitting at(like it's going to protect us from the wolf)the wolf gets inside and leaps to attack us, and my dream ends. I wake up. Terrified. Imagine being a little kid and having this over, and over, night after night, then slowly spreading out as I got older. The time inbetween when I would have it continued to grow as I did.

I never knew what it meant, or why I kept having it, and I actually believe that I had it randomly occur again when I was at some point in high school.

I’m walking through the woods, there’s nothing behind me or ahead of me but trees. I hear noises around me but have no idea what it is. Suddenly a witch with a green face pops out from behind one of the trees and starts chasing me. I try to run faster but it seems like it’s impossible. The witch is right behind me, about to catch me and then I wake up….

I have this one dream that I'm on a fishing boat somewhere off the coast of Florida relaxing and not having a care in the world. Then I end up back on land and at a big beach party where everyone knows me. Then I wake up because my alarm on my phone goes off.

streetrider...I have had that kind of dream before where you fall of a building and wake up right before you hit the ground...it's scary and you actually feel yourself falling.

My dream starts off as I am walking down the beach toward the water, but the ocean water is green with purple seeweed floating everywhere. As I keep strolling down I see both my parents builing a huge beach house. On our new house it has long purple seeweed hanging down so it is almost covering the house so you cant see it. My two sisters are inside over looking the ocean view. Thankully for them while looking out the seeweed disappears. Once it turns to dust, my family and i run down the street as fast as we can, until i wake up thinking i am actually running.
