That's sounds like a really intense dream. Hopefully there's nothing too serious going on further there. I've had a few weird dark or difficult dreams before, though most of them I think are positive or neutral. One of the most recent negative ones that I can remember that really scared me there was an angry looking dude and he was staring at me and hold a big knife looking like he wanted to kill me, and it felt so real I thought maybe it was like some magician or dark occultist who was trying to scare me away from the research I was doing on magic and occultism... Heh. As crazy as that may sound I like to think of the possibilities. I had woke up sweating and with my heart beating, that doesn't happen too often, but I do get some really freaky ones from time to time!

One from my youth involved a "shadow" man that came through a closed door into my room and just stared at me like I meant something to it, or like I was chosen for something... It was freaky, that was another one that felt so real I couldn't tell if it was a dream or real life... So, I think I can relate with you a bit. The dream world can be quite intense! And sometimes I have to wonder if there's more truth to those states than we think and maybe we're tapping into another dimension or reality or something...? Hmm.. Something to think about.
