It’s been a month since the week with the two creepy dreams. \u00c2\u00a0Tonight’s was much less so, but still enough to wake me up and give me goosebumps.<\/p>\n
In my dream, I was in the house here, and the front door was open, as it often is in summer. \u00c2\u00a0I was looking out and there was a boy standing outside. \u00c2\u00a0He was no more than around 12 years old, possible even less, certainly not someone who would normally be a danger. \u00c2\u00a0He did not look threatening in any way, really. \u00c2\u00a0The strange thing was that he did not seem to notice me at all, even though the door was open and I was standing right there. \u00c2\u00a0He was just not looking that way at all. I found this embarrassing and began to close the door. \u00c2\u00a0But something made me look again. \u00c2\u00a0And he was gone. \u00c2\u00a0Disappeared in the matter of a couple seconds. \u00c2\u00a0That’s when I was creeped out and woke up. That and there were sounds as if there was a tractor or some construction machine outside, and a sound as if something was pulling or pushing on the house and it was giving just a little, like during a storm. \u00c2\u00a0But when the buzzing in my head stopped, the sounds had stopped as well. \u00c2\u00a0Yes, there were spindles again, which means that despite the relative vividness of the dream, it must have happened during phase II. \u00c2\u00a0It was about 20 minutes after I fell asleep.<\/p>\n
The only common parts with the truly creepy dreams were the fact that the dream took place here, rather than in some fantasy world or somewhere I lived before, and the experience of someone overlooking me as if I was not there. A bit like those short ghost stories where in the last paragraph the main character realizes that he was the ghost all along.<\/p>\n
I am writing this while it is fresh, before going back to bed. There haven’t been any strange sounds in the meantime. I think it was probably a passing train. \u00c2\u00a0They do that irregularly but several times a night, and the heavy goods trains when they race past here make the ground shake. \u00c2\u00a0I can’t imagine how it must be for those who live \u00c2\u00a0almost right across the road from the railway. \u00c2\u00a0There is one more neighbor between them and me, and some of the trains still make things in the house rattle and shake.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
