Dream interpretations needed?

[Anonymous]

I have also has this dream that ended as a night terror. I was following someone and checking out a house when I entered a white room. The person continued down the next dark corridor without me while I stayed in the white room. I was drawn to it. There was something in the corner that called me in and wouldn't let me leave. I saw this dark cloud start forming in the bottom of the corner and slowly rise above me and the room turned cold (I mean I FELT that shit dude!) and it started to float down towards me and engulf me. I saw a dark, hooded figure appearing out of the cloud. It was like a dementor from Harry Potter or a wealth of some sort. I saw its bony hands reaching for me and it came at me really fast and that's when I woke up screaming "Go away, get away, go away" for about 15 seconds or so. I had that dream in a hotel room. My parents heard it too but they just laughed when I told them about it. That dream scares me shitless to this very day, which is why I remember it so well. Any interpretations for this?

I had this one a year or so ago.

Freud has invented dream interpretation but for decades it has been known that it doesn't work like that. Your mesencephalon so your so called middle brain is constantly pumping energy through neurons and is so kind of randomly pulling images from every part of your cortex into conciousness. The cortex then connects these images and there is a dream. A story created out of randomly chosen memories and thoughts. But if you are having night terror it can have something to do with hightened anxiousty, so why not see a doctor.

Thanks for the very interesting explanation. Yes, it seems I have been having a lot of signs of anxiety, but I have yet to see my doctor for it.

Sorry man that is just a nightmare there is no meaning behind it. I know sometimes it feels like there really should be but there is not. Though sometimes our dreams can be affected by our mood when we go to sleep. You were in a hotel room I'm guessing that you were not to comfortable in it so that might have lead your brain to create a nightmare.

There is never a point to interpret a dream. It's just a dream - that's it.
