(This topic isn't about the "goal in your life" dreams, it's about nightmares/awesome dreams you've had.)
So... everyone share :) I'm pretty curious when it comes to other people's dreams.

My usual recurring dream is falling/jumping off a waterfall- *I love that fake adrenaline rush  :)*

Last night I had a good nightmare. (???) Well anyway Dark from D.N. Angel was trying to kill me (mainly trying to slit my throat with this really shiny dagger) I tried to tell him I loved him, why are you trying to kill me? I thought you loved me too? etc. (I dunno why I was trying to say that.... I guess in the dream I was his girlfriend?) Well for some reason I just couldn't talk... it's so frustrating in dreams when that happens... when I wake up I talk outloud just to make sure I'm not really mute.... well anyways I ran away in my friend's car. She was driving and I was in the seat behind her. I said sarcastically, "lemme guess. He's right behind me." And he was and I saw the flash of the dagger before waking up. It was a nightmare since I was about to die, but Dark was there so it was awesome  ;)

I also have lots of zombie dreams, like those cheap zombie movies with all the blood and gore where the main character and his friends are the only humans and they're trying to escape. I like watching those kinds of movies for some reason so that's probably why my dreams are that way  ;)

I like nightmares. A nightmare is a catastrophe that happens with the confines of your mind. Its an entirely new chaotic world, and it really interests me. When a dream you have scares the crud out of you, it can scare the crud out of other people too (hence Steven King). Its cool to know that you can think of something so scary that you wouldn't watch it if it were a movie. I know how to wake myself up from a dream or nightmare, but I often don't.

I can't wake myself up, but I'm not sure I'd want to anyway.
Sometimes I like nightmares, the rush they give you, but other times they can be truly horrific.

The only recurring dream I have is where my shin bones are being scraped, it's strange. But the other day I had a great dream, kinda weird but awesome.

Thats awesome! The only nightmare I had that I really wanted to wake up from, was one that I didn't even know was a nightmare. Someone I really loved got hit by a car. And the person driving the car apparently looked like me, because everyone, even she, was blaming me. It was terrible. I woke up crying, and spent the whole day depressed until I thought: I can't drive! And I haven't seen her in a while! It was a dream!
I was SO relieved. I got a bowl of Ice Cream, and called her :)
I once also had a nightmare that I went to hell. The things crawling around down there are SCARY! :-[

I have nightmares quite often. They usually involve fish or zombies. Or... fish zombies.

A dream from a few weeks ago:
I was at Wal-Mart with my mother and grandma in the fish department; though the aquariums were larger and it seemed to be the only thing for a while. I was allowed three other fish and a beta. (Probably because I want an aquarium, ever since my beta died.) I chose a glass vase for my beta, and a nice little tetra-looking fish. There was this snake/chameleon fish, and a sort of rat-looking grouper fish I got, as well. I was very... indecisive and then when I got the fish, they were vacuum-sealed in a bracelet; I was supposed to wear it as a way of keeping the fish, but after I went in the parking lot, curiosity got the best of me; I peeled open one, and the fish was perfect... and then it turned to ash and flew away. The bones of the rat-fish reached up and grabbed my arm, and then I just abruptly woke up.

A recurring dream:
Once again, I'm buying fish in Wal-Mart/some generic fish place, except with (faceless) friends. They got a simple goldfish, and we began walking to person A's house. A leak sprung in the bag (which I was holding) and I said "oh no, should we get a new bag for it?" and person B said "No, it's fine; we're almost there." So we kept walking, and I noticed the water seeping into me as I covered it with my hand. A while later, the fish was transferring with the water into my palm. "When are we gonna get there?" I asked, and person A said: "Well, it doesn't matter; if it dies, we can just get another." A while later, I started freaking out; the plastic bag was empty, and the fish was swimming freely in my hand.

"Please, help, it's in my hand!"
"remember what I said about how we could just get another one?" Person A draws a weapon, pointing it at me.
"Please.. what did I do?!"
"Everything, don't you know?" Person B says, and then I get killed, but it zooms to the fish in my palm. blood fills the water in my palm, and the fish dies.

Thats crazy dude :-[
I've had some freaky dreams, but I can't accurately explain them. Nice dreams though! Try doing different things every time the dream occurs. Like once, try running as far as you can. I love changing the outcome of re-occurring dreams!

"Whoa." I actually said that out loud when I read the rest of your post, Fisk. Very eerie. :-[

I once had this dream that in my old school, some kind of green poisonous gas filled the air, and everyone was these green monsters with round heads, which had dragonfly-like wings. In a way, I guess you could say that they turned into monsters that had heads that looked like Navi or Tatl when they turn green. I don't really remember if it was scary or not, but I do plan on using the "story" behind it as a future story plot device. ;)

At some other times, there are dreams where there's this giant bug trying to get at me. I am insectophobic (among other things), but luckily, it doesn't take long for me to wake up from them. However, I usually end up being shaky/twitchy afterwards--you know, the kind of shaky/twitchy that Han Solo was in Return of the Jedi right after he was freed from the carbonite. :-X

One time I had a dream the world was going to get flooded by global warming. I got saved by a whale made out of peanutbutter (by the way: I hate peanutbutter) but then I got really sad because it only saved and all my friends and family drowned. :(

crazy dream

I was at my high school with my friends, when an explosion went off in the distance. Suddenly Zombies, like honest to goodness zombies busted through the front door of my high school. So me and two of my friends, and one of my friends from a long time ago are running through what now looks more like a mini mall that a high school, and we found an exit on the second floor. Weird I know. There was a store on the second floor that had a few Katanas. I didn't know how to use them, so but I took one anyways. So we are running back to my friend's house, and the Zombies are now chasing us for some reason. My friend couldn't make it, and they got him :-*

Thats when I woke up. I had that dream a few months ago, but I still remember it... weird dream

I can't stand zombies in dreams... XD They just freak me out to no end.. especially if someone I know gets caught by them. Navi-headed students... Well, it sounds pretty neat.

another freaky dream:
There was a long pier in a gigantic lake, and at the end was someone's house. It was rickety, and really foggy; it was like out of some cheap horror flick, or something. XD I got to the house, and it had a "lawn" made of excess boards added to the pier, and had skulls on the interior wall. Not... OMG SCARY!, just skulls from trophy animals. There was a couple with scratched out faces (very rarely do people have proper faces in my dream) and who looked... dead. They didn't move at all in the dream. They had lots of cats, but there was something the matter with them. When you were outside, they had skin, fur, etc., but inside, they were stripped of everything and were just.. bones. I looked at my own arms, and the skin was dissolving.

I ran out of the house, blood just pooling on my pantlegs from lack of skin. Then, I looked in the water. It cleared, and as some blood dripped into the water, I saw this simply gigantic (blue whale sized) shrimp/walking stick mix slither up to the surface. it's eyes were totally blank, and it was a pale, ghostly colour. it jumped up and broke the pier in two, and then more joined it. I ran and ran and ran... and then the pier ended up snapping in front of me, and I jumped across the gap, and I landed on the edge, crawling up the edge, but I was just too weak. I got eaten. Bummer.

Man, your dreams are very entertaining to read about, Fisk! ;D

Ok, freakish dream. It has only happened to me once, and it was about two years ago, but it is really weird.

So, I'm in the store, and I am looking at the magazines. My mom is in the other isle, looking at canned food or something. I see some workers come in and remove a magazine that talked about celebrities(we'll call it MIV), and they put Tips and Tricks(pretty much my favorite magazine) in its place.

So, we leave the store, and go home. My mom asks me to let out the dogs, which I say I'll do in a second. She instantly grounds me(which usually wouldn't happen). Then, we were heading to yoga. As she got out, she told me she was canceling my Tips and Tricks subscription as part of the grounding. As we walked towards the building, I told my mom that she couldn't cancel my Tips and Tricks magazine because it was unfair. A woman who was walking towards the building as well over heard us, and she glared at me. If looks could kill, I would have been dead as a doornail. She had evil intent in the glare, I assure you.

So, anyways, we go home, and my mom goes over to my neighbors to help plant flowers. I was getting bored and decided to try to argue my Tips and Tricks case again. So I go over the neighbors house, and I see a woman who was dressed in the same clothes as my mom. I poked her on the shoulder and said that taking away my Tips and Tricks subscription was unfair.

The woman turned around. She was the same woman as earlier, apparently she had changed into the same clothes as my mom. Her eyes were bloodshot, and her hair was suddenly sticking up. "Don't ever say that name," she whispered. "MY FAVORITE MAGAZINE(the MIV thing I mentioned earlier) WENT OUT OF BUSINESS BECAUSE OF THEM," this time, her voice was roaring in my ear. She reached behind her and took out a pickax. I ran to my van(I don't know why I didn't go into my house), opened the door, and hopped in. I locked the door, hoping she wouldn't get in. She began to swing at the window of the door with a pickax, and when I broke, I thought I woke up.

I was in my room, and it was like i had just waken up. I looked out of the window, and I saw her staring at me, and then I woke up.

Freakish or what

I HAVE heard of people having a dream within a dream. It was my sister who had one once, I believe. She said it was a pretty weird experience.

For you, Orpheous, that, too, was just freaky... :-[
