“Scary Dream” is not a fiction story. It’s one of my dreams that I saw a day back (Fri 16th Feb, 2018).
Being stressed for the past couple of weeks, I was having a difficult time in dealing with the things happening in and around me. I have never been so stressed before and as interesting as it gets with each passing day, but at the same time, I fall deeper into my own darkness. My mind is flooded with the what-ifs and the what-if-not and also about my own future which is as dark as the blackest material on Earth.
The stairs were quite dark due to no electricity. I turned on the flashlight in my smartphone and started walking. A few steps up and I could hear someone walking behind me. It was a lady.
In an attempt to help the lady through the staircase, I slowed down my pace and showed her the way using the flashlight. While walking slowly, I initiated the conversation –
Me: Hello, who are you?
She: I am Telugu
As odd as it sounds, I didn’t realize why she said that or what was the significance of it in my dream. But, as you might already know, I have had a few out-of-body experiences in the past and I was fully aware that I was in a dream. I just could not wake up and get out of it.
Walking mid-way up, I stopped and waited for the lady to get near me so that we could walk the rest of the staircase together. She came and then I looked at her. I knew something was wrong and something will happen soon. I was desperate to get out of my dream before it happened. But I couldn’t.
My mind told me to stay calm and continue the dream; and nothing will happen since I am fully aware that I was dreaming.
In a moment’s notice, the face of that lady morphed into a scary ghost, like the ones you see in the movies. My heartbeats increased and I stood still unable to move, in the dream as well as in real. She came closer to kill me , perhaps?
I decided the best way to get out of it would be to fall asleep inside my dream. And I fell down unconscious. The people of the building came running towards me and woke me up. At the same time, my phone rang and I woke up in real-life.
You would know this, if you have seen the movie – Inception. To wake up from the dream, it should be spontaneous, from within the dream as well as outside of the dream, that is, in the real life. And that’s what happened with me.
