I avoid writing in this topic, mostly because I usually thought if I got started I would be writing in it almost every night. But last night was too good not to share because it gives a clue to just how crazy my dreamscape really is.
It starts with a dream I've had before, just once to my recollection. This particular one was probably dredged up from my subconcious due to starting Silent Hill last night.
Starts on your average city block. Probably New York City, but I couldn't tell you what, except the entirety of my left is blocked off by a brick wall as high as the eye can see. I'm looking for something or someone. I don't know what yet. I get to the end of the block and turn the corner to see a guy that looks like Morgan Freeman there, sweeping the streets. He starts explaining to me what I needed to know. I couldn't tell you what that was, because I don't remember. I turn around and head back down the street and enter a building, walking up a few flights of stairs to a place that resembles my old office at CPM. No one there is familiar, but since MF sent me there I explain what I need. They give me no help, so I walk to an AC vent on the wall and crawl inside to the Place in the Walls, which bears some explanation in itself.
This is one of the most common reoccuring places in my dreams, the Place in the Walls. I've been there in a lot of different dreams, generally when I can't figure something out or need to go somewhere. It's generally narrow but wide enough to at least stand normally. There are a few rooms, with stacks of paper generally scattered about in an unorganized and precarious fashion and people working. And of course, you can see the framework on the sides as if you were inside a wall.
Anyway, I talk to some people here and find out something, then head back out and talk to the people in the office again and they finally tell me where the person is I'm looking for (because I suddenly do know). I head back down and enter an alley next to the building, whereupon Michael Myers steps out of the shadows.
This is where the dream ended the first time I had it. Not tonight though. It doesn't continue the way you think though. Instead, it starts from the beginning and I have the same exact dream two more times in full. On the third time though, I just turn and open up one of the basement doors that are in the alley, Michael Myers just stands there dumbly. I walk down into the basement, which just ends up being an endless staircase encased in darkness, except for the stairs. After walking a while, I reach a small platform where a black woman with crazy hair is standing. I stop and talk to her for a bit. About what I have no recollection, but after a while I just keep going down the stairs. After a while of walking, I basically blink and find myself back on the platform as if I'd never left, still in mid conversation. This is where it ended tonight.
Of course. The fun doesn't end there. Nope. Whats a night without a double feature? Or quadruple feature, if you consider the previous dream to be three seperate instances.
This one is much less interesting, because it's pretty standard dream stuff. Amusingly, it's a Sliders dream. The first girl, Rembrandt and Jerry O'Connel's lameass brother's character are there. We're driving on a road heading into my town. We're excited since we think it's home. We arrive at my house, where we split up to check things and see if we really are. Much like in the similar episode, things aren't quite exactly right. But we quickly run out of time to check as the timer goes from 2 hours to 30 minutes to 60 seconds in a heartbeat. I'm making a once over of the things I'm taking/leaving from my room and it's pretty much like I've got three bags of holding I'm carrying so much stuff. I pull out an NES with 4 controllers and laugh and say "I keep bringing this thing along in case we get stuck in a somewhere where it's still the 1980's." Everyone laughs. I put it back into the bag and we jump through the portal, where I wake up.
Like I said, the second one isn't as interesting, but the sheer novelty of the first (three) convinced me to post. The last couple days have been pretty interesting dreamwise, so I figured I'd at least get one up here.
