I have two tuypes of nightmares, both of which (ironically) correspond to my favorite horror flicks:
The Alien Movies
And Romero's zombie movies.
I have had multiple dreams involving being trapped in a ship inhabbited by the alien. Once i was being pursued through the town i livee din in Germany growing up, with a dusturbing amount of real detail.
The walking dead dreams have always been the worst, though. They are usually so involved and detailed, i am unaware that i am dreaming. They are very similar to Lovecraft's dream chronicles, where the main characters actually live another life in their sleep.
I wake up from them feeling like they are precognitive, and i am usually afraid to look out the window for fear of seeing an army of corpses milling abbout.
A slightly different one i had once:
In the dream, i came home to find my girlfreind (now fiance) having a threesome with 2 other guys. We had been going out for about 3 months at the time, but with us, we were VERY attached by that time. it didnt last long, but in the dream she was like "Its no big deal, get over it....Jesus...." I woke up EXTREMELY upset, and when i rolled over to touch her and reassure myself, she was not there.
I think that is the only time i have panicked in the last 10 years. I got up immediately and started looking around for her (at 3 in the morning), and she was on the couch. I woke her up, and she said tshe thought she was crowding me, so she went out to the couch so i could sleep better.
I told her about the dream. It bothered the hell out of me. Needless to say, she came back to bed.
The upside was, i learned that night that i really was in love with her... :)
