Caradon's Most Strange Disturbing Or Memorable Dreams Archive

[Caradon]

 
 I thought I would make a thread for a collection of my more strange disturbing or memorable dreams, lucid or not lucid. If and when I come across them in my old journals. Or if I have new ones I feel like putting here. I'm not sure yet how much time I'm going to put into reading through my old journals and collecting dreams. But I've been wanting to go through my old dreams for recalling them, and maybe some personal inspiration. Or just for the memories as well. I have a large chunk that are lost because of my old computer crashing and can't open. PJ had sent them to me to save to my computer. I do still have the computer, maybe I can get it fixed some day and retrieve those journals too.

Anyways last night I clicked on a random page in one of my old Journals and came across this bizarre dream from 2007. I thought it would be a good one to start with. I might slightly modify wording or punctuation of any old dreams. I'm still nowhere near perfect at grammar but I think I've improved somewhat since I first began online journaling.

Accused

I have been accused of a serious crime that I didn't commit. There is a complex story line about forensics and detectives collecting evidence trying to prove me guilty. Eventually I end up in some meeting before the trial is to take place. Many people are there. Some working for me, and others working to put me away.
 
I'm very stressed out and afraid. people start asking me tons of questions and trying to get me to confess. But  I'm to afraid to say anything at all. I'm afraid that the evil lawyers will take anything I say and twist it into an admission of guilt. So I just sit there freaking out saying nothing at all. They start trying to say that my silence is an admission of guilt.
 
 Fortunately I have a good group of people working for me, and they seem to think things will go my way. Donald Sutherland is one of the people working to prove me Innocent. I find this comforting. I think that he is a skilled lawyer. This entire part of the dream is very emotionally intense.
 
Now it's the next day and I'm in court. The trial is set to begin and I'm up at the witness stand about to be questioned. Only I'm standing not sitting. I start to get a really bad headache and my perspective shifts.
 
I'm now outside of my body and looking at myself. A portion of my skull has fallen away and I can see this strange growth. The growth is expanding from within my brain and beginning to squeeze outward. It has this weird jelly like appearance and is growing out of my head as I watch.
 
Suddenly half of my head explodes and my body falls to the floor and dies. There are people from the forensics lab rushing around and examining my body. Somebody uses a pencil to pick up a piece of the jelly like growth. It now looks like a round bubble.
I hear the guy say." Oh my god! It's some kind of egg sack!"
 
 The dream shifts and I'm in an examination laboratory. They have my body cut open all the way down the middle. And my body is in some tank filled with some kind of fluid. There are things growing outward from within my entire body. They are forming these really colorfully shoots within the tank. (not sure how to explain it exactly.) There are these thin multi colored shoots growing upward out of my body and filling the tank.
 
 I realize that whatever this stuff is, it's creating a new type of environment for a completely new life form. And that every human on the earth is going to die in the same manner that I just did. And in the process a new environment will be formed for a new species to populate the earth.

I found this one I decided I want to save here.

Death Race

A group of people and I, are in a race. The winner becomes a millionaire, and also gets to continue living. There's about six of us, and we start out in some metal chamber. There are rubber pegs on the floor that we have to stand on. Because the whole room is about to be electrically charged. Each one of us also has to carry these things that look kind of like an old persons walker. And they also become electrically charged with the floor. The first part of the race is to get through the room without being electrocuted. We have to step in just the right places, using the walkers for balance. But you have to hold the walker just right. Because if your grip slips just a little. you will touch the wrong spot and be electrocuted. Part of the rules of the race are that you also have to try and kill your opponents along the way, as well as avoiding the many death traps that have been set up. And we are all unwilling contestants that have been kidnapped and forced into this place.
 
 All of us make it through the room. We exit the room into a long corridor. I am the last one. We all now have weapons as well. Most of the others run ahead and disappear around a bend in the corridor. With the exception of one guy who stops and turns in my direction. I can tell that he sees me as the weakest of the pack. (And in truth that's how I'm feeling. And very frightened.) He is a fairly big guy, with a shaved head. He is carrying three huge blades. They are curved like fans. He has singled me out for the first kill. But somehow, I know that this guy was previously a friend of mine. I know him from before the race that I don't remember. He takes a step towards me and throws one of the blades. As it spins through the air it looks like a flying disk. I'm carrying a long handled Axe. It also has a wide curved blade. One side of the blade tapers to a point like a spike. I try to swing my axe to deflect the blade. but my timing is way off and I miss. But I'm able to dodge the blade, and it falls harmlessly to the floor. Twice more he throws his remaining blades. Both times I try to deflect them with my axe and miss. But I still avoid the blades.
 
 Now he is weaponless. I set down my axe and pick up one of the blades and throw it in his direction. It spins towards his head then tilts to the side and just misses him. "That was a bad ass throw!" I exclaim.  "Yeah it was." He replies. But I suddenly feel sick to my stomach. Realizing I just nearly decapitated my friend. I don't want to kill him at all. But I don't want to be killed either. I throw the other two blades but only half heartedly. And I miss both times.
 
He moves to retrieve the blades. Thinking I won't survive his next attack I pick up my axe and charge. I swing the axe in a sideways swiping motion that just grazes his arm and draws a little blood. The axe feels very awkward in my hands and I'm not wielding it very well. I swipe it across again. And again, my axe does not connect very well. I can't seem to get much power behind it. But he was knocked off balance a little. Before he can recover I try a different tactic. I swing the axe around in an uppercut motion, with the spike end forward. The spike catches him in the throat just beneath the chin, and the point explodes out the top of his skull. There is the sickening sound of tearing flesh, and blood is spraying. Both horrified, and in shock at what I've just done. I'm also glad I survived the attack. I wake up with a yuck feeling in my stomach.
 

[Caradon]

I had a couple of intensely vivid memorable dreams the last couple nights that I want to note here.

The first one was a visit from my lost friend that felt really good. I was somewhat aware, as I both knew she was gone, but also didn't. I mean I was holding her and marveling at how real and solid she felt in my arms and the fact that she was here. Even though I wasn't really thinking about the fact she is actually gone. I know a part of me knew because of the way I felt holding her. And the way I felt when setting her down and watching her. As she followed me around and I was getting some water for her. I'm not sure how to explain how magical it felt. I woke from the dream with mixed feelings, both sad but also very happy and excited to have seen in her such a way, and so vividly. And the dream left me feeling highly motivated to focus on my dreaming.

And the second, fantastical dream last night that I woke up from.  Well I'm sort of on a WBTB right now.

The Dwarf

I'm having this fantastic and extremely vivid dream based on The Lord Of The Rings. I'm a part of the fellowship of the ring and we had just had the meeting and planning a journey across the land to some distant Elvin city.

I'm sitting with a Dwarf on the castle walls overlooking the most incredible and magical land while the others are preparing for the journey. I mention to the Dwarf that I can't believe I never really like this story much not really being much of a fan of the style of writing of the author.(But I loved the movies just not the written version.)

And in the dream, I feel as if the Dwarf and I are old, long time friends. And we are discussing how the others have no idea what is in store during this upcoming journey.

The Dwarf looks around and randomly says to me. " I can't believe we are actually here. Almost like we are in a dream." I think about it and look around. (I should have done an RC.) And I'm thinking about how vivid and powerful the scene is and how amazing as a dream, it feel so real. To the Dwarf I say. "I'm into lucid dreaming and I've seen you in lucid dreams before." To my surprise the Dwarf says. "Aye, I remember. And I remember you telling me that I should try to remember when we wake up." I was surprised by his response and I said "Yeah, I would have said that. "Maybe it was really you and not just a random dream character then." "Aye, he says. It was really me."

Then the Dwarf and I walk around the castle grounds as preparations are being made for the journey. And many Dwarves are outfitting for battle, loading crossbows and strapping them to their backs. Someone in charge is telling them that they shouldn't have loaded crossbows strapped to their backs. But the Dwarves want them loaded and ready to fire at a moments notice.

I woke with a just wow feeling, because the whole thing was so powerful and vivid in my mind. And the way the Dwarf mentioned he felt as if this could be a dream and was the one to bring up the subject of dreaming. Was a memorable experience even if I didn't take the cue and get lucid, duh.

Sunday/March/15/2020

I think I'll post this here as it was pretty wild. I'm not even sure I can describe it but I'll give it a shot, at least somewhat.

Something happened that caused a rift or dimensional gate to be ripped open in the sky. I looked up and saw these massive almost god like figures in the portal. Their appearance was not human at all. As I watch the portal opens wider and a sudden flood of something similar to what looks like molten lava comes pouring down out of the portal.

I realize the world is ending and I have this sense of the planet being turned inside out on itself. I duck my head down as the sky continues to rip open and this flood of stuff is rushing down. Fully believing I'm about to be obliterated as the world is ripping itself apart.

Instead of being obliterated I find myself suddenly floating in water, like a dark sea. And it's like the world is rebuilding itself around me. Massive structures of rock are rising up out of the dark sea. Like mountains rising and forming new land structures. I keep trying to swim away from these mountains as they continue to rise up out of the water all around me.

I continue to swim, and things calm down some. These small boats begin to appear. In the boats are these otherworldly looking beings. I manage to climb into one of these boats, the strange beings not seeming to mind.

The entire world now, is like some bizarre other dimensional place. I don't remember how, but I somehow end up on this platform. There is a series of platforms at different heights spaced at regular distance from each other. And I'm leaping from one platform to the next, with a very video game ish kind of feeling.

And I wake up suddenly, thinking whoa wtf was that. 

[Caradon]

When I originally made this thread I was planning to go through one of my old journals and select some of the more memorable and weird dreams to make a collection of. But so far I've not gone through them as much as I was intending to. I still might though.

[Caradon]

I'm going to add this one I had to my collection of most weird. Because it was pretty far out there. The experience of it Probably a lot weirder than I was able to convey in it's description.

Bicycle Man/Pooped Out Weirdness

There is a dream about this guy that his a little private bike shop out of his home. It's like he runs a little bicycle junk yard where people take whatever parts they want and put them together to make whatever kind of bike they want out of the parts he has laying around. There is some weird stuff about having a gas can and putting stabilizer in the gas.

Then I don't know what happens but the dream evolves into some major weirdness as I start to dream about this little man the size of a little action figure being swallowed whole by the bicycle man. The dream becomes cartoon like and more like a show that I'm watching. I can see and watch the little man as he is swallowed by the bicycle man but I'm not the little man. The little action figure man falls into the bicycle mans stomach and wondering how to get out. But then the little man falls deeper into the bicycle man and ends up being sucked down into the intestinal tubes. I wonder if the little man will suffocate in there. I wonder how he is even breathing. I can see this disgusted look on the little mans face as he gets pulled through the tubes being mixed in with chunks of poop. The little man finally gets to the end and he wants to get out through the butthole of the bicycle man and trying to force his way out.

The scene shifts and I'm now watching the bicycle man and the bicycle man is in an outdoor setting with people putting together bike parts. It's obvious that the bicycle man needs to poop really bad now because the little man inside is trying to get out and the bicycle man is trying not to poop the little man out into his pants in front of everyone. I wake up and I'm like what the fuck just happened, lol. Weirdness.

[RoHS]

This is a very strange dream)

[Caradon]

This is a very strange dream)

I know right, so weird. And even weirder, later the same day I was watching a live stream of a musician playing a guitar and singing. In between songs the person starts talking about how they want to be a tiny person traveling through someone's body. And I'm thinking so weird I was just dreaming of such a thing. WTF. Lol.

[Wędajihs]

Wow. That bike man and little man dream was something else. We might need to try and interpret this one. 

[Caradon]

Wow. That bike man and little man dream was something else. We might need to try and interpret this one. 

Lol. It might have been the extra melatonin. I usually take a littler before going to sleep more out of habit than anything since it doesn't usually do much for me. But  that night on a whim I took a little more than I usually do. But then again it could have just been random because I get really bizarre dreams sometimes. Not as frequently as I used to, but it still happens. 

[Caradon]

I found this one in my old lucid dream journal where I was in a lucid dream with my lost friend.  And I was afraid of losing her (when losing lucidity in the dream) but then in my dream regaining lucidity and remembering that I would wake up and find her to be still laying safely next to me. I wanted to add it to memorable dreams.

Lucid Dream # 56 of 2009
Random reality check induced Lucidity

Lucid With Lacy/Watch Reality Check/Making Family Dream Characters Lucid


I don't remember much of what was going on before I did the reality check. I was at home. My family was here. We were having what seemed like some holiday dinner thing. I think, maybe it was supposed to be Christmas. For no reason that I can remember anyway I look at my watch. The numbers are all broken up and right away I know I'm dreaming. I try showing my watch to my brother but he is not really paying attention. Then I start getting excited because I know I have another countable lucid going on. Everything I put into it last night payed off. I see that Lacy wants to go outside. I know that she does not have her invisible fencing collar on. But I think that since this is just a dream it would be ok to just let her go run loose.

I decide to do a nose pinch reality check right here just to make extra sure. Yes, I can breathe easily through my  pinched nose. I don't let Lacy out right away. I'm a little confused on what happens for the next few moments. I can't remember some of it very well. I was rushing around the house trying to hurry up and do something before leaving. While I'm rushing around I remember that the next time I was lucid in my house I wanted to get out of it right away and find something else to do. But I'm not quite ready to leave. I felt compelled to finish doing what ever it was I was trying to do. I just can't remember what that was.

The next thing I remember clearly is being in the kitchen. My mom is there and other family members. And also people I have no idea who they are. I tell my mom that this is a dream. I tell her that she should pinch her nose and see if she can breathe through it. Surprisingly, she actually does it. She pinches her nose and inhales deeply. I see her eyes go wide. Then loudly, so everyone in the room can hear, she says. " Caradon has done an amazing thing tonight. He has rescued us from our unknowing situation." I then see that my step dad is pulling a pan of baked chicken out of the oven. It looked really good actually. "So?" I ask.  Are you guys going to do something fun then? Or just keep making dinner?" I don't remember getting any response. I leave and end up going back to letting Lacy out.

I open the back door and Lacy goes running outside and I step outside too. It's night and there is snow on the ground. I notice I'm bare footed and my feet are freezing in the snow I begin to lose lucidity here as I think about going into the house and getting my shoes on. I then notice that Lacy has run out of the yard and down the street. I panic and forget all about my cold feet as I start running after her. There is a little bit more of me trying to get her back. Towards the end I regain some lucidity as I realize with relief that I will wake up pretty soon, and Lacy will still be right here with me.

[Caradon]

This one is memorable because of being lucid in the middle of a zombie hoard, and the weird way the dream began. And also because of using telekinesis to create a force field around me. Something that I had remembered doing in a non lucid dream and remembered to try it when I was lucid and it worked for me when lucid too. Kind of cool learning a dream control skill from a non lucid dream.

Lucid Dream # 22 0f 2010
Zombies recognized
No reality check needed


Lucid With Zombies/Telekinetic Force Field

The first part is kind of weird to describe. There is a herd of stampeding sheep. I'm running away, trying to keep from being trampled. This is taking place indoors. I run up a very steep stairway. The sheep follow me up the stairs. I start kicking some of them back down the steps. They tumble down the stairs as if falling down a cliff. The sheep become humans and I'm now trying to kick some woman back down the steps. The stampeding people have some kind of infection causing them to become crazed. I notice a team of people dressed in what looks like black bio hazard suits. They are carrying flame throwers and begin torching all the infected people.  I run away not wanting to get torched. As I run away I'm thinking that this experience is going to cause me to have some freaky dreams.

I run out the front door. As I step outside I'm exiting the townhouse I lived in as a kid. Down the front steps I take an immediate right, then another right, running around the side of the building into the back yard. I keep a wary eye on the patio door half expecting the guys with flame throwers to come running out after me. They never do.

I cross the back yard and run out into the street. I'm making for the Bridgemans restaurant that's across the road. (Everything is exactly the way it is in real life.)
for some reason I feel like I'll be safe if I can make it to Bridgemans.

As I cross the street I can see people everywhere. They are stumbling around. I realize that everyone is zombies. And I say out loud. " It's zombie time!" I must be starting to become lucid here because I'm unafraid and thinking of of the zombies as something fun.

A big fat zombie man stumbles towards me. The zombie trips and falls down, then continues to drag and pull itself crawling after me. I'm becoming surrounded, there are more and more of them. I punch one dark haired zombie guy in the face then struggle with it a little. I nearly get my hand bit and I think I had better be more careful.

I smoothly become fully lucid here, there is no sudden rush of realization. I'm done with this stupid hand to hand zombie fighting. It's telekinesis time. This is awesome! I've never been lucid in a zombie situation like this before. I'm completely surrounded by the zombie mob. There has to be hundreds of them, all coming at me.

I start TK'ing them like crazy. It's pretty humorous. I reach out with my mind and send one zombie after another flipping and flying through the air. Then I remember the TK force field I created In a non lucid last Sunday. I want to see if I can do that again while lucid. I'm pretty certain that I can. I remember clearly how I did it.

It works! Instead of locking onto individual zombies I encircle myself with a force of power that violently repels anything that comes near. I charge through the mob of zombies cutting through them with ease. Zombie bodies flying everywhere. Then I leap into the air flying just above their heads. I send out a wide force of TK in front of me and down into the zombie mob. As I fly over them I cut them down like a lawn mower. Zombies are falling in waves. My flight of destruction lasts a minute or two and I wake.

[Caradon]

I'm adding this one that I just had to memorable dreams. I'm not calling it lucid but it had some sort of lucidity to it at the end where I became aware that I was creating the events that were happening to me. And it was a dream character that informed me that I was doing so.

Saturday/January/9/2021

You Have Been Traveling

It's impossible to describe in detail the entire dream. But it begins rather mundane and evolves into so much chaos and nightmare. Begins as if I'm still a teen and my brother and I are living together still. And an old friend from those days is there.

I'm annoyed with the old friend he has gotten into my stuff. I'm seeing photos of days gone laying out all about the floor. ( As I type this I'm just now seeing significance from this moment related to what happens later.) My old friend has been using my things and photos to rehash the old days. I'm further annoyed as my old friend has spilled something all over the floor that looks like mustard. Big yellow stains all over the carpet now and trying to clean it up.

From here things evolve into the difficult to describe as things shift and change rapidly. I have a long bladed machete like weapon, the handle is loose. but the blade becomes a gun. Like an assault rifle but the rifle is falling apart into pieces. There is more weirdness to it that I don't know how to describe.

But the dream evolves into being in some kind of shop and I'm with an unknown person who is helping me to repair the rifle. Oddly, the shop we are in starts out as some abandoned place. The place of a person long gone and we are not supposed to be here. But we are here rummaging and salvaging through this long gone persons stuff. And the rifle belonged to said person that hand crafted it. A completely home made rifle. There is a lot to it I'm skipping because I don't know how to describe, so much weirdness.

There is also a vehicle, a very strange contraption that the person I'm with is also trying to repair.

Things begin to evolve into the surreal as the shop we are in becomes something else and we are in the land of some disturbed gang. But I'm not quite yet aware of it.

I don't remember where I obtain the two swords. But I have a long sword in each hand and I'm traveling on foot through a labyrinth of chaos that changes itself  on a whim.
I'm feeling like I'm near to lucidity here as I feel like I'm in an unreal place like a video game.

I come to a section of the labyrinth that closes in on me, trapping me within four walls. I feel I have found my way into a puzzle trap now and I need to figure out the puzzle in order to escape.

But I see a door. A door I know I'm not supposed to be able to open, it should only open if I'm able to solve the puzzle. But I cheat the puzzle and force open the door. It's not really that hard. I grab the handle of the door and pull on it hard.  I can feel the resistance as I'm not supposed to be able to open the door in such away, but the door opens inward regardless.

Outside the door is dark chaos as if in a video game you have glitched the game and passed through a wall and entered an area of the program you were not intended to be. (This has happened to me more than once in video games.)

It's dark but I can see shadowy images of broken up structures and stairways. I'm a little worried about stepping into this area because the floor seems bottomless, and the structures seem unstable as If I might just pass through them and fall into nothingness.

However, there is a dark platform near the door I have opened and after some moments I step out onto the platform. I'm more than relieved to find the platform is stable and is holding my weight.

I can hear sounds of attack. Somewhere outside this surreal broken up labyrinth place I'm in is the gang of hunters, hunting me.

I move forward, still holding my swords, one long blade in each hand. The scene somehow stabilizes and I find myself moving cautiously down more corridors of death traps and rooms. I seem to be aware now that I'm trapped in a labyrinth of death created by these people that are outside and attacking. This is where they bring their victims to toy with and terrorize before the slaughter. I've found my way here on my own without their permission. I'm the invader caught in their trap and they are hunting me now.

I exit a corridor and find myself outside. But not outside the complex, now it seems like an enclosed macabre junkyard. Old smashed up broken vehicles piled around. But also the dead and dismembered bodies of previous victims of this place.

Then enters a car, driving, it looks like an old boat of a car.  I stand there surprisingly calmly still holding a sword in each hand as the car approaches. There are several people in the car, including  the leader of this place. The leader laughs and says "There is no escaping for you now, is there?"

And just then I realize that I'm completely surrounded by this crazed gang. ( It feels very "Walking Dead" like with the arrival of Negan and his people.) As I was focused on the approaching vehicle, from behind all of the surrounding junked vehicles equipment and rotting corpses has stepped the rest of the gang completely surrounding me unnoticed by me until now.

The vehicle stops, the doors open. The occupants exit including the leader. The leader is this huge muscular almost super natural figure in size and power. Simply wearing jeans and no shirt.

He walks around the back of the vehicle and opens the trunk of the car and I can see the trunk is filled with severed heads collected as trophies. And that's when I notice all of the blood and gore dripping off the sides of the vehicle, and over the sides of the trunk.

The leader reaches into the trunk and removes a gigantic chainsaw from the trunk. He turns to me and smiles wickedly and with a couple of pulls from the cord he fires up the chainsaw, whirring buzzing blade, and whipping the thing around. I'm thinking that I am so fucked...

He comes at me with that chainsaw, swinging it in a wide arc and down at my head. I bring up my two swords in front of me in a crossed defensive maneuver. I'm able to catch the whirring chainsaw blade in the cross section of my swords with a shower of sparks.  I'm struggling to hold that sawblade back, inches from cutting into my face.

But with a sudden flick of that saw, I am disarmed, my swords yanked from my hands and flung straight up into the air. With ease the saw wielding maniac leader somehow catches both of my blades while at the same time still holding his chainsaw in one hand. I also now notice my blades appearance as he is holding them both together in one hand. Beat up, mangled, and drenched in blood.

I stand there completely defenseless, certain I'm about to be slaughtered by these freaks, just another of their victims. When in an instant, unfathomably, the crazed leaders persona does a complete change.

He becomes so pleasant almost angelic in nature. He smiles at me with a sort of wonder and affection. And he says to me. "My friend, you have been traveling."

And when he speaks those words, I Instantly understand what he means. In a semi lucid state now, I realize. This entire thing, this surreal experience of chaos  was all me creating it, traveling out of control through scene after scene, unaware of what I've been doing. 

The crazed maniac leader, is no longer the crazed maniac at all but seems some aware being that has rescued me from my unaware situation. And knowing how I love my swords, he hands me my swords now all shiny and clean and looking magical and beautiful.

And with the wave of a thought, he opens a door. A literal door swings open, and then the nightmarish scene of the macabre junkyard is gone. And I'm now standing in the most beautiful meadow of flowers and butterflies. And an over all sense of magic and beauty. And in that moment I wake up and I'm  like "Whoa what was that!?"

I still have a couple of hours to sleep before my alarm goes off. But I can't fall back to sleep with that intense experience fresh in my mind so I decide to just get up.

[Caradon]

This one is memorable to me because I've never purposely changed a dream as dramatically as this before or since. And the experience/sensation I had when the scene I was in spun around me and disappeared and I got sucked out through the floor of the dream and hurled through nothingness was something I'll never forget. It was very disorienting. Fascinating though, how the scene I was in disappear right out from under me and I literally fell into the scene I was trying to create. I'm not sure of the date. Sometime in the late 90's I think.

Spinning A New Dream

I don't remember what was going on before I became lucid but I was in a stairwell of a building when I suddenly realized I was dreaming. It was kind of a boring place, just surrounded by walls and stairs. I was about to go looking for a way outside, but I then decided that I would try and see if I could make the outside world come to me.

Without closing my eyes I visualized a mountain landscape and I tried to generate the emotions I would feel if I was standing in that landscape at that moment. I take a deep breath and completely relax. My arms at my sides with the palms of my hands outwards. And with everything I have I tried to send the feeling of this mountain landscape rushing out of me and into the dream around me. What happened next happened very fast and sudden.

The stairwell I was in suddenly spun around me in a blur and disappeared. And at the same time that it began to spin I fell through the floor. It was more like I got sucked out of the bottom of the dream. And I was hurled completely out of control at high speed through a black nothingness. And for the first time  I was wondering if maybe I had done something I should not have. I was a little worried but not really afraid. I was curious about what would happen next. I only had a very brief moment to wonder what was going on.

The next thing I know a train suddenly appears below me. I literally fall into another dream scene! I land on my feet on top of a moving train.
My first thought is oh good I'm still dreaming. I am a little relieved to be back on familiar territory. I look around, and I am now riding the train through the most beautiful mountain landscape you can imagine. The clouds in the sky are a strange greenish color and they are rolling and swirling like when they show the sky of a dream in a movie. I had done it! I completely changed the dream without taking one step to find my way outside. A little stunned from what had just happened I didn't really know what to do next. So I just started hopping train cars until I reached the front of the train. Then I just stood there enjoying the spectacular scenery that I had just created. And there are now small birds flying around me so close I could reach out and touch them. After a short while of riding I wake up.

[Caradon]

I'm going to add this one to my memorable and disturbing collection as it was pretty insane. Probably more so than I was able to sufficiently describe. And it was one of the very few times that I was actually killed in a dream (Before waking and reentering the dream and obtaining lucidity that is.) Those things that entered the room were extremely vivid and disturbing. It's one I'd likely never forget even if I had not wrote it down. And I loved my method of overcoming it (and literally facing it, Ha.)  I've never overcome a nightmare situation quite like that before. I might try it again if I remember it under the right circumstances.

Lucid Dream # 25 of 2021
Anxiety Induced Lucidity?
No Reality Check Needed

Making The Monsters Lucid

The dream begins in a random apartment with my step brother. There are large disgusting flying insects everywhere. A lot of them resemble winged scorpions. I'm extremely grossed out but need to sleep. I'm trying to figure out how to sleep with things all over the place and crawling on me and what not.

There is a long segment of this and my step brother has the vacuum and is trying to suck up as many of the things as he can but it does not seem to be helping at all. If anything the problem is getting worse and worse. I'm wishing that I had my living room tent set up here because then I could at least sleep in my tent protected from the bugs that are growing in ever increasing numbers and swarming everywhere.

Eventually the sun begins to go down outside and that's when the dream truly becomes a nightmare. The world becomes an apocalypse with an eerie bluish haze in the air over run by horrible mutated sort of humanoid monsters.

The monsters are on the hunt for humans to slaughter and I can hear them in the halls outside of the apartment. The apartment door slams open and several creatures enter. They are horrible disgusting looking things. Very large and powerful. The only way I can think of to describe their appearance is that they resemble a sort of cross between the "Hell Raiser" Cenobites and the mutations of the "Doom" VR  game that I played.

There is also some random male dream character with us in the apartment now and he is closest to the door. The monsters grab a hold of him and drag him out into the hall. I can hear the mans  screams as it's obvious that he is being ripped to pieces by these mutations.

Once they finish with him the monsters enter the apartment again. There seems to be even more of them now. There are many of them entering the room, each and every one of them is far larger and more powerful than I am. I have no defense at all there is nothing I can do. My step brother and I are simply doomed here.

One of the things grabs me and easily lifts me off my feet as if I weigh nothing at all. And proceeds to rip me apart I don't feel any pain but as I know I'm being killed and nothing I can do about it everything fades to black as I die and I awaken.

"Whoa, that was wild!" I'm thinking and I immediately fall back to sleep and right back into the same apartment same dream.

The monsters again slam open the door and surge into the room. This time I ask my step brother if he has the shotgun. My step brother gestures to the shot gun leaning up against the wall just over there. I pick up the shot gun and quickly check to see if it's loaded and I see that it is.

I aim the shotgun at the nearest approaching monster and then I remember from playing "Doom" in VR the shot gun will do me no good. I have only two shots, each and every one of these creatures will take many more than two shot to take down. We're fucked...

I fire anyways at the creature that is nearly upon me. The thing hardly even notices, slightly jerking a shoulder to the side and never slows down.

This is when I remember with great relief that this is just a dream. And I remember that I can use my telekinesis as a weapon. However, I'm much out of practice with using it. And in the stress of the moment I struggle with it and it takes me a moment to make it work at all. After a moment I manage to levitate one of the creatures off the floor and send it around a corner and into the kitchen making it disappear from sight. But there is several more of them quickly approaching me and I'm in real danger of being overrun.

In a flash through my mind I'm remembering all of the different ways I've overcome horrific situations as this in lucid dreams in the past. And I briefly remember early on I developed a skill to make my dream body insubstantial so nothing can eve tough me, anything attacking me would just pass right through me as if I were a ghost and I consider trying this approach.

But then again with relief I literally laugh at myself when I remember with a what the fuck was I thinking kind of memory. The real way to defeat this is to not be afraid of being attacked at all because they can't do anything at all to harm me. Just relax and have fun with it... All stress melts away.

 As the nearest monster approaches to make it's attack. I say to it. "This is a dream dude." And to prove that I no longer have any fear of these things what so ever I reach out with both hands and take it's head in my hands and kiss it's slimy mutated face full on the lips. I then I pull back and laugh at it.

The creature then does something both unexpected and amusing. The creature begins stumbling around the room ridiculously repeating the words. "This is a dream dude." "This is a dream dude." Informing his monster friends that it's a dream and they begin stumbling around the room in ridiculous fashion and bouncing off the walls. No longer with any kind of threatening manner at all. Then the dream disappointingly fades and I wake up.

I'm hoping that I can fall back to sleep and back into it but I have to get up to use the bathroom and I know that is going to probably disrupt any chance of that. I get up and use the bathroom anyways. But when I fall back to sleep I'm lucid again but in a completely different dream.
