Nightmares are a bit like those late-night short movies on SBS. (That's if you live in Australia). I saw one of these short films, probably made by a uni student or somthing, and there were two little girl who wanted to be meremaids. The got a saw and started cutting off each others legs. Weird in a nightmarey sort of way.
My worst nightmare was probably one where I killed my entire family by tearing out their jugular veins with my bare hands, and proceeded to eat their bodies. I've also had a similar one where I was on a kill and eat spree with a thirst for babies instead of my family, only I kicked them to death instead. I've got no idea what that's supposed to mean, though, but it's probably not indicating that I'm a family person. I've had another one about a gecko that my Dad called a "King" that was so poisonous it could kill you just by touching you, and you couldn't see it against my carpet. I was pretty young at the time but I was terrified of that dream, and I had it about 9 nights in a row. Now that I'm forced to delve there, I think the depths of my mind are probably best kept under wraps.
I actually saw that a long time ago Edwin. It was part of a series they where just short films and really weird... there was one in the series it had this mental guy in a padded room that was slowly going more insane because he was in a room with absolutely noting except for a red button on a stick he spent ages circling it and looking at when finally he pressed it to find that it just switched the light on and off...
Last night, I had a deminightmare. The world suddenly became a big FPS and because I suck at FPs's, I got whooped. However, there was a room full of chocolate cake at the end of the dream and that ruined it from becoming a nightmare.
@ Edwin Street: Totally agree with you on the sick-dreams thing. Last time I was really sick, with a flu-like symptoms, I would dread the nightimes when Id have to sleep. Id be in bad and trying to get to sleep but all Id dream about was doing really mundane tasks, like tightening a spanner around a bolt on my bed, that didnt even exist.
Its almost as if its not a dream-or nightmare atall. Its something else, kindof like hallucinations, cos it can often be painful and doesnt often extend out of the 'real life' perimaters ie. wherever your sleeping is where your 'nightsickmare' usually takes place.
Rather freaky, in a way.
'oh yeah? he's thrown a kettle over a pub, what have you done?'
It's really annoying when you get "sickmares" like that. That's a good word, in fact. After playing a lot of FF7, I had one where I was guiding Cloud round an endless series of tunnels... all night.
I had another nightmare last night. I was looking at a photo that was on my wall of a young girl's face - I think it was Cheryl from Silent Hill, in fact. The photo seemed normal enough, but somehow I knew there was something wrong with it. I kept staring at it to tell myself that it was normal and nothing would happen... and suddenly it changed and showed her in pain, screaming. I jumped away and closed my eyes, and it ended.
I've always had this thing about seeing shocked/scared faces... they make me more scared as well.
Anyone ever found themselves beign chased by a foe they cannot stop, but only hinder for a few seconds, and only wake up when you are stabbed/beheaded/thrown down a pit by them?
yeah, I had similar experience to you aswell Wong Chung, my 'sickmare'( ahem,copyright istsoft inc 2004, anytime you use this word you must pay royalties and credit to Mr iSTvan) involved me staring at my clothes closet, which happened to be very untidy, as I looked at it it began to form a monster/man out of rubbish and clothes haning off the draws. Thes kind of situations can be doubly frightening when they dont vanish instantly. Luckily Ive been quite healthy lately, but I almost look forward to my next spell of sickness, just so I can tell you all about it. almost.

I had a terrible nightmare a while ago...
I were at America! And thatīs not all!
The America was under some sort of revolution,
and thay elected a new ruler to U.S.A in a some sort
of bunker! And thatīs too horrible already, now comes
the last thing of that dream...
The election staff and the new president of U.S.A
were all belonged in NSAPD!!!!
And the rest of the dream were just that Sieg Heil!:ng...
Does anyone else dream about being pursued by someone, but your feet don't have any traction and you just can't get away? You run as fast as you possibly can but you're moving at a turtle's pace. I think it's more frustrating than scary, but I know a few people who get the same thing.
I had a dream in where this dude chaced me down with a machine gun and I jumped out of a window to get away from him and while I was falling he shot me to death...on impact of the ground I woke up...scary as hell!
"I have dreamed a dream... But now that dream is gone from me."
My scariest nightmares were scariest because they felt real. The whole metal clank and the detail on that armored knight, the heat from that hellfire thing, and uh... other even scarier ones I'd rather not mention.
But now, I've learned to control my dreams just by telling myself that it's just a dream. Most of the time I wake up, but if I don't, I can just reset the dream all over again when it's not on my side.
