I noticed there was a favorite dream thread, but how about a worst dream thread? I've always had nightmares, ever sence I was a baby. NIght frights, terrors, the like. I always have those classic nightmares, falling down stairs that never end. Falling in a Pit of snakes, having spiders lay eggs in your hand and then exploading (okay, maybe that's not a classic nightmare but whatever). However my worst Nightmare I think was the one that left me totally shocked when I woke up. I had to shake myself and make sure the dream never happend. My mother died in the dream, me and my little brother had to move away to chicago to live with my dad. It was so scary, me and my brother kept running into dangerous situations along the way. We almost got run over, then my mom came back as an angel. I guess I really was scared my mom might leave me. When I woke up I was shakeing. Yeah, kinda creepy.

SO!
What was your worst nightmare?
Why was it so scary?

My worst nightmare was after my Grandpa passed. I was running through this mildewy, dank (very scary typical movie-esque) house and I don't know what I was running from. Eventually I came to this door and I heard a voice say "don't go in there!" but I was already running into it while looking behind me, so it was like I couldn't process the thought. When I went into the room, there was a nasty mildewed sleeping bag on the floor and I could tell someone was in it. I couldn't move my legs anymore at that point and it ended up it was my grandpa, who sat up in one of those freakishly fast motions and I could tell he was supposed to be dead, in the dream.

The one thing I found was that something changed when I had this nightmare. When my grandma died, I still found myself thinking "I wonder how grandma and grandpa are doing" and I'd end up thinking "...Oh yeah." It was like a habit. After I had that dream, I never thought that again. It was just "I wonder how grandma is doing".. Like the dream shocked me out of doing that. A cruel way to break a habit. My nightmares teach me things often, though. But that was the worst. And I've had lots of horror-type dreams. It was probably the worst for me because of how much I loved my Grandpa.

...........Sorry. *cough* :unsure:

o.0 Oookaay Kato.. Worst Nightmare..hmm..Even when I was little, I became super lucid from fear in my nightmares, so I'd either make myself wake up, or just change the dream so it wasn't so bad. Oh but wait, I remember one! My house had become infested with little blood sucking dots (Which later made an encore appearance in another dream in my house) and we had to move out, but they followed us wherever we went! But I became semi lucid and changed the dream so they were attracted to my brother's dirty socks. XD So we washed the socks and all was well.

I dream about tornadoes a lot so really it cant be summed up in one nightmare. But its usually the same. runnig around with no place to hid from a gigantic tornado. you could say it is a bone chillingly scary experience. Although I am fascinated with the phenomenon of tornadoes to begin with. Just wouldnt want to be in the situation in my nightmares.

Purg, that was one freaky nightmare.... O____O

My worst nightmare was when I was... four or five. Really young in any case. I used to lucid dream a lot more as a kid, and this was probably one of the first lucid dreams I had. Come to think of it, it's probably the first dream I can remember as well.... Moving on.

There was a neanderthal setting, and a lot of people sitting around a huge campfire. They were all dressed in loincloths, and I saw them from afar.
Then it changed to being me and my mum, just standing there looking at this gigantic log that was burning. A huge snake was lying on the end that wasn't burning, seemingly asleep. I move to take a closer look, but trip and fell onto the log landing on the not-burning bit as well. The snake turns towards me in a fast, swift motion and attacks.

About then I woke up. Still, atleast 18 years later, I feel uncomfortable when I think about that dream. I've never been afraid of snakes, or fire for that matter.


..my nightmares almost always have animals in them, come to think of it. The last one involved very well trained rabbits, my dad and a huge hamster wheel made out of metal. O___o

At Christmas, around the time the PS2 came out, my neighbour had this Christmas Party. I was still young and me and my brother were told to hang out with my neighbour's daughter and we were all sat in my neighbour's son's bedroom and he started playing Silent Hill 2. Being the dimwit that i am, i thought it was a nice game, filled with happy things.
So after watching my neighbour's son shoot a dead thing...dead, i began having nightmares that i was in my room and the same monster came out of my warbdrobe and started grabbing me. So i ran out and found myself in the house and...well, that's just say it was scary when you are actually THERE rather than describing it... 0-0

I had a lot of nightmares that still freaks me out.

The worsts are when something is trying to catch and kill you. And when you're sweating in reality, or it's hot, the dream is worse.


But the worst dream I ever had, I think, was one that starts in my school, or a dream-version of it. We are playing outside of it, then suddently some teachers and the principal appear and order to us to get inside of the school, and FAST. I looked around and I saw a suspicious man in a dark and red clothing, climbing the walls, just like Spiderman. But I feared him and got into school.

There, everything was white... There was powder everywhere. I saw dead bodies of my friends in the floor, and a teacher said that the powder was an anthrax-like virus and that we would all die if we don't get to the last floor fast. I put my shirt in my mouth and nose and run trough the stairs. But the stairs, look like they'll never end. I remember climbing the stairs with my friend that has problems in the legs, so he couldn't go any further and died there. It was a terrible vision. He was first coughing blood, then vomited blood and died there. Ugh.

I climbed more the stairs, trying to not even breathe. I got into the last floor, but at least 2/3 of my school was dead. Then I went to a kitchen, to eat something. When I saw that the floor had more dead bodies and white powder... Too late, I breathed and inhaled the virus. I coughed blood a bit and I ran trough the last floor. There was the man in black and red again. I was terrified and woke up screaming (Like "AAAH!"). I was sweating and the room was very hot... Terrible.

This freaked me out because I didn't wanted to die, and my classmates were my family (Only 11 persons in the entire eight grade class, rofl). I was totally terrified by the death of my friends... Ugh. Stupid nightmare.

My worst dream was about an epidemic that made people explode. If you were hit by... what was left, you exploded. I don't remember much more until the end, when I found out it was just a story in a children's book, but I was still freaked out when I woke up.

My worst nightmare.....well there were two and they were both really stupid, but..........^ ^''

The first one was when I was four and had first started playing NiGHTS......I dreamed that Clawz attacked me and clawed my eyeballs out and then Jackle chopped my head off with that stupid guillotine in his room. ^ ^'' And....then I woke up.

The second one happened about a month ago and was SRMT related.....there was one episode from the series called A Ghost in the Machinder and there was this really creepy computer thing that was trying to chop the Hyperforce up into tiny pieces with a big fan and was zapping the heck out of Antauri and ...........yeah. Anyway I dreamed that the computer probe turned into a big spider and I was Antauri and it got me and electrocuted me.....and blood started running out of my eyes........and I was throwing up my insides. And I could freaking FEEL it.....and being completely unlucid there wasn't a thing I could do about it. And then the dream suddenly switched and I was sitting in our family's living room......and Otto ( the green monkey from SRMT ) was flying a piece of pie and he crashed it into the living room. ^ ^''''''

Man.. nightmares have gotten us all pretty bad at least once, huh?

I've had a fair few - losing friends, having my heart broken and stepped on and laughed at, and some nasty ones involving spiders *arachniphobe* - but the absolute worst, I remembered quite suddenly.. I haven't even told my family about it.

In the dream, my mom was about 7 or 8 months along with my youngest sister. She was downstairs watching TV in the living room while my younger sister and I were supposed to be asleep. I can't remember where my dad was. But I came out of my room.. and there, advancing on my mother was a gruff burglar, holding a knife...

Let's just say I woke up JUST IN FREAKING TIME. >_<;; Thankfully, that was almost 12 years ago, and my mom and youngest sister are both fine!

Worst Nightmare? Oh, yeah, I remember mine PRET-ty well.

I was six or seven, as it was the year before my family moved down to California. I am also the older sister by four and a half years (nearly exact - my little bro and I are off only by two days), and this dream involved him. At first, it didn't seem like a nightmare, but it quickly changed into it by the end.

The dream itself was me lying down on my bed reading a book. I hear someone come in and sit on my feet. I presume it to be my little brother, so I basically tell him to go away.

And then I hear the scariest noise in my life: something melting faster than you can say 'holy'. I gasp, thinking that something just happened to my little brother that I do NOT want to see, and then wake up. I think I started crying soon afterwards.

I just recently remembered one. I was sitting in a dark room and my Aunt was watching TV. I didn't know why but I had a horrible feeling that kept rising. I was about to tell my Aunt to get up and get out of the house, but before I could that horrible feeling reached it peek and I thought I could hear a really loud whistle or scream. I woke up trying to say "No" and my heart was pounding so fast I was haveing trouble breathing for a little while.

I don't know what it was or what happend. But no nightmare had ever made me so freaked out as to cause me to wake up not being able to breath like that one did.

This was from a long time ago, and it was pretty weird.

Basically, I was stuck...somewhere, and I had to find the hidden password to escape within I time limit.

And I failed (this was near the end of the nigtmare, it was a pretty long one) So this lady hit me with an ice pack, and it was like a camera pulled back to reveal me having merged with a clown and laughing insanely. I was forced (I still felt the movement) to walk into my living room. I think my parent's were on the couch, and my sister was acting like a bull (running around on all fours and making those noises). And then I woke up.

Scary. And weird.

I can't remember exact details, but my worst dream was when I was about 5 or 6. There was this HUGE YELLOW SNOT MONSTER in my wardrobe. I was scared of the wardrobe wver since. It had to be closed completely before I slept, otherwise I'd just sit there staring at it. But after we moved, there was no more scary wardrobe to be scared of. So that bad dream stuck with me for about 9 years. ;-;

My worst nightmare?

Gee...It happened quite a while ago,I was running away from this vampire thingy in a lonely graveyard...And it had gotten my parents and my entire family.....I can still see it,the mists...Everything.The snarling, rasping sounds from the beast as it ran after me.

Then...Mysteriously,the whole thing vanished and I was in my old secondary school and I was fighting off these uber-scary zombies!!!! I don't know..But it seemed that my movements were all remote-controlled by an expert game-player and I slayed all the zombies.But I was scared out of my mind.......Then I woke up.

Thank goodness.I still shudder when I remember this.Stupid,scary nightmare.

It was a terrible nightmare I had a long time back.

Me, my classmates and my substitute teacher were on a 'field trip', only we were in a junkyard-looking place. We were shown a video of how a creature known as a 'poisonball' would kill anything. Just afterwards, that very creature showed up. I was saying something, when that thing got right in my face (I was in first person). That made me woke up.

It's always interesting to read what other peoples' dreams and nightmares are like..

can't say that I've had many nightmares (or what I would consider to fit the term), but one that was vivid from my childhood which was lucid. It was based on something that happened to me at school with a fellow student. The kid was at my house that I was living in at the time, and we were in the basement. We were playing with my Legos for some time, then he started doing something strange.. it ended up him assaulting me and I was trying to get away the whole time. I tried to, but simply could not.. my parents came downstairs, but I think all they did was get the laundry and walk off. I was terrified that they would find out what happened in the waking world while I was at school, so maybe that's why they were passive while I was crying. I woke myself up crying, which was better than trying to struggle to get away from that kid.

Most of my dreams that may be borderline-nightmares are usually just very intriguing to me. One of the other lucid dreams I had as a child was regarding one of the bowling alleys my dad worked in. I used to go with him from time to time when I had a day off of school or something and hung out with him and a couple of his coworkers. One was a pinsetter and the other was the chef at the food place. In the dream, I was sitting at the food place talking to the chef, but he was distracted. He had family in town (which was probably taken from what really happened, as his family *was* in town and I remember feeling put off because there wasn't anyone to talk to me), so I got up to visit the pinsetter. He wasn't around, so I went to his room. For whatever reason, in my dream he lived in a maintenance closet of sorts. It was down a long hallway, in between the bowling alley and another building, both tall and pale grey. I walked down the hallway to his room, and when I opened the door - his room was a mess, very dimly lit with red lights (and to this day, red-lit rooms terrify me to some degree). I found a note on his desk and red it.. I cannot recall what it said, but I woke up feeling very, very sad about it... sort of like it was a suicide note..

Please don't do that at A-kon. XD

My worst nightmare... ? Hmm... It's fuzzy, at this point, but it involved a few monstrosities (surprisingly humanoid in shape and size), darkness, running, and me waking up screaming. That's really all I can remember. (Or, my parents told me, I was whimpering. I woke up with sleep paralysis, so I couldn't really do much XD)

The worst nightmare I ever had was, um... a bit violent.

I was actually assaulted. In a very indecent way. Which is why I'm not going into details. But I remember I was terrified when I woke up, and didn't want to leave my room for several hours. I was scared to death that it would actually happen that day.

I think that was when I was sixteen. I can't believe it's only been three years, though. It seems much more distant now...

My worst nightmare....ehrm... Is too graphic to say here in detail.

It wasn't a lucid dream, but be known I did feel everything that happened in ways I cannot explain, but int he ending result of being chased and tied down: I had metal rods hammered through EVERY joint on my body, prior to being lit on fire.

-Nervous chuckle-.. Needless to say since then, I've been afraid of ANYTHING piercing my skin and I've slowed in my pyro enjoyments...

I am lucky, because i don't have many bad dreams, but i have had one absolute shocker, it wasn't long after my Nanna had passed away, and i was visited by her a fair bit after she had gone, i thought this dream was going to be the same, however it was all so sudden and horrible. I saw her face in the dark, smiling moving toward me which then a big flash and her skin ripped and burned off her face and there was this almighty demonic roar that just seemed to surround me, I woke up in the dark with the sweats and when i went to scream i couldn't, i tried moving my legs and i couldn't, the hairs on the back of my neck stood up and i swear i felt this evil presence behind me and i couldn't move. I finally started twitching and moving my hands and jumped up and switched the light on and watched TV until daylight where i went back to sleep. Now most of that bad experience happened while i was awake or pseudo awake, but it was horrible, im getting the cold shivers just retelling it right now. yyyuck.

OMG, that reminds me so much of my nightmares. For, you know, how much they've scared me, not any of the actual details. But it sounds like the one I mentioned here, where it just seemed so realistic, I thought it was actually happening to me until I woke up.

... I'm starting to shake just thinking about it now...

My scariest nightmare I recall most... I think I saw too many grindhouse commercials (gun in a leg!?). I was in this horror mansion and out of nowhere, there's this guy cutting people up, taking them apart in disgusting manners and reassmebling them together in ways I never imagined or have seen possible (and I've read/seen a lot of weird stuff). So I left that room and then I see my mom talking to someone about her being cut up and put together with other people's parts and I can't remember the rest, but I woke up so sick and terrified. It was weird. And I felt like someone was watching.
I think it's because I ate right before I slept. I've avoided drinking water even before going to bed. (It's not really the cause is it?) But oddly enough, whenever there's a major loss or injury to friends/family, I don't have nightmares around that time or of it later.

To be honest, I have no nightmares that 'scare' me anymore. The last one that did was actually with nuns, twisting landscapes, old schools, and running through a grocery store that happens to also be a bunch of stairs. [ Okay the part was kind of funny now that I look at it. ]

Worst nightmare, hmm there has only really been a few, and two of those were actually remembering scenes from horror movies that I saw when I was... four (A scene from American Werewolf In London, that I can still see clear as crystal to this day over a quarter of a century later), a scene from Jaws that gave me recurring nightmares for about ten years (again I was really young when I first saw it). Thirdly is the funniest really, I had a nightmare in black and white, and it was just like an old vampire movie from the black and white tv days. And lastly, the nightmare that I can recall in an instant to this day still, some.... atleast twenty years later, I'm submerged in well it's like water, but it's made up of bubbles, millions of them, and they overlap, intersect and co-exist. It's the feeling of them pressed against my body that's freaks me out. It's like being semi crushed by a bubble, like having a balloon all around you (that you aren't inside, it's just fully surrounds you).

Ah yes, my worst nightmare. I still remember it fondly. It happened about four years ago so I can recall it pretty well. It wasn't anything too complicated. Basically it was kind of like being in a horror world that was half "The Thing" and half "Aliens", with just a dash of "Silent Hill". I was alone in the middle of a city in which residents started disappearing. It was at night. Fairly quickly all hell broke loose as people and animals started sporadically mutating into Thing creatures all around me. Even buildings started turning fleshy. What was worse is that some of the human mutants could actually still talk (out of any mouth they pleased). The worst part was there was no pattern to the mutations. It was almost like a virus spreading in the air. One minute I'd make a good ally and the next they'd be trying to tear out my throat with their knee caps while walking on their kidneys.

Pretty much the whole dream was me trying to escape this city alive while trying to ignore the possibility of sprouting appendages/orifices that didn't exactly belong. I remember some really close calls. It ended abruptly, as nightmares often do. I have no idea how it concluded. That morning I woke up in a cold sweat and I can't recall a time in my life I ever felt as terrified as those first five minutes of being awake. I felt pretty damn good the rest of the day.

When I was very young, I think in about 1st or 2nd grade, I had a nightmare that I still remember as if I had it last night. I was on a track with other runners, wearing running shorts and a shirt and all that. The track was very, very wide with nothing but grass on either side. There weren’t any bleachers, or any other people. The sky was a mix of purple and pink. I kept running before falling into a giant hole about 4, maybe 5 feet wide that was in the middle of the track. I fell into a kind of gross, muddy material the color of chocolate. There was a grisly, withered green hand sticking out of the ground. The fingers were thin and had sharp edges. The whole arm looked very thin, practically emaciated. I pondered this for a moment before climbing out of the hole and running again. I fell in 2 more times, and the final time I fell in, the hand started reaching for me, pushing me under, into the muddy surface. My face went under, and I felt it reaching around and pushing in my shoulder when I woke up. This dream has stayed with me ever since, I can recall it clear as day. I always bring up this dream whenever I have a discussion about dreams, it's stayed with me that strongly.

The worst dream that I can remember is from about a year ago. I was working on a computer virus to infect the machines at my bank. For some reason, I wanted to get them back for financially sleighting me somehow, so I was going to prepare a simple virus to draw funds into my account a la "Office Space".

The virus went into the bank, and I went to bed (in the middle of my dream, mind you). I don't recall having a dream within a dream, but I did "wake up" the next day to go see how much money was awaiting me in my account, when I noticed that cars were packed on the interstate, desperately trying to flee, with air raid sirens blaring in the distance.

I turned on the television to find out what on earth was going on. My virus had somehow reached the Pentagon, and set off the first strike alarms, automatically prompting a real launch. The missles were already in the air. The world was at full-scale nuclear war, and it was all my fault because I was angry over losing a few dollars.

The dream ended with a bright flash.

Man, so many nightmares to choose from.

Well, I'll warn you beforehand, a lot of my dreams just seem like messed up, patchwork, LSD-trip sh!t.

In one dream I remember someone telling me (and these are the exact words) "We have reason to believe you have contracted the scarlet plague." And I guess that was kind of scary.

Spiders have always been one of my few fears, and about a week ago I had a pretty scary dream about massive tarantulas. In my dream there was a "general" and a "queen" spider (a la the movie Arachnophobia).

In another dream, I was at a Fourth of July carnival and was riding on a ferris wheel and fell off from the top. I woke up just before I smacked into the ground. I was shaking like crazy.

This one's a bit personal, but I guess Internet anonymity allows for more candid discussions. One of my mom's old boyfriends used to be abusive to her and I remember dreaming of hiding from him in my backyard. He found me and sneered down at me but didn't really do anything.

This other one's a bit funny and scary, and even though it was weird, it made complete sense given a couple events that had (then) recently happened. Anyways, (the following is not part of the dream) last year I was headed home from college (about a two hour drive) and had taken a wrong turn and was lost on some backgrounds when the alternator in my car went kaput. I basically coasted for a little while (my lights were dimming and my car wouldn't accelerate anymore) but I conveniently arrived at a house and stopped my car there. Anyways, this isn't a premise for a spooky woodsy house story with a maniac living there. The people were really nice and I had my sister pick me up and eventually got my car towed out of their driveway and my alternator fixed. But this plays into the dream later. But earlier in the semester I got a parking ticket on campus; they charged me $25 -- annoying, but nothing serious. In the dream, though, my alternator went kaput (again) only now it was at a busy, four-way intersection in the middle of a big highway (no, I don't know what the hell a busy, four-way intersection was doing in the middle of a big highway). I guess in the dream world I figured it would be OK if I left my car there for the time being and I got out on foot and walked into town to see if I could get help. When I came back there was a parking ticket lodged under my windshield wipers for exactly $3,006.11. All I remember was that I was so afraid when I faced my stepdad with that ticket that my heart was pounding in my ears. I figured I should just save him the job of killing me and do away with myself.

When I was much younger I had another dream where the aliens from the movie Starship Troopers had invaded the planet and were slaughtering everybody.

Then a couple years ago I had a dream where I was in the middle of a WWII style war in the middle of a big gymnasium (freaking weird, I tell ya), with guns being fired and big shells being dropped and everything. I remember a big shell dropping right by my sister and exploding and when the smoke cleared she had vanished completely. My family means the world to me, so that dream had me sweating and shaking when I woke up. It was one where you just shudder when you wake up and you almost sob in relief that it was a dream, but it was so poignant that even the daylight didn't fully rob the dream of its power.

In the past few years though I've been having lots of dreams (not necessarily nightmares) where I guess memories -- or feelings -- of the dream stick in my head and I think they're real. For example, I dreamed that my friend and I got in a fight, but when I woke up I couldn't figure out why I was mad at him and didn't realize it was because of a dream till a week later. The same thing happened when one of my grandparents died in a dream -- it took me almost a day to figure out why I was so sad.
