I HARDLY EVER GET SCARED IN MY DREAMS EVEN WHEN THEY'RE REALLY DISTURBING. A COUPLE STICK OUT IN MY MIND FROM WHEN I WAS YOUNGER THOUGH, BOTH OF THE SAME THEME. IN THE FIRST DREAM I WAS DOWNSTAIRS IN MY HOUSE LOOKING AT MY REFLECTION IN A BIG MIRROR WHEN I GLANCED TO SEE SOMETHING LOOKING FROM THE VERY TOP OF THE STAIRS BEHIND ME. IT LOOKED LIKE MY FACE POPPING ROUND THE CORNER. I WAS STARTLED SO LOOKED ROUND TO SEE THAT NOTHING WAS THERE SO I LAUGHED AND TURNED BACK TO THE MIRROR. THE SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN SO I TURNED ROUND AND TO MY HORROR IT WAS MY FACE LAUGHING BACK AT ME FROM THE TOP OF THE STAIRS, MY ASTRAL PERSONA RAN AWAY AND I WOKE UP IN A COLD SWEAT.
THE OTHER DREAM WAS OF ME SITTING DOWNSTAIRS WATCHING TV WITH MY FAMILY, MY SEAT WAS IN FRONT OD THE WINDOW ABOUT 20FT AWAY. OUT OF THE CORNER OF MY EYE, I SAW SOMETHING COME UP TO THE WINDOW WHICH I COULD SWEAR WAS ME, I WAS PETRIFIED AND STARTED SQUEALING AND MUTTERING TO MY PARENTS TRYING TO TELL THEM THAT I WAS AT THE WINDOW. ALL THEY DID WAS TELL ME TO SHUT UP AND WATCH TV, BY WHICH TIME MY FACE HAD DISAPPEARED AGAIN. SOMEHOW THIS CALMED ME ENOUGH SO THAT I RESUMED MY TV DIET. AFTER A SHORT WHILE MY FACE AGAIN RE-EMERGED AND STARTED TAPPING THE WINDOW SMILING INSANELY AT ME. I SCREAMED AS LOUD AS MY DREAM WOULD ALLOW ME TO AS I TRIED TO ELUCIDATE MY ABJECT TERROR TO MY PARENTS, POINTING AND SHOUTING AT THE WINDOW. THEN I MUST HAVE AWOKEN IN A COLD SWEAT.
I HAVE NO IDEA WHY SEEING MY DOPPELGANGER WOULD BRING SO MUCH FEAR TO ME. COULD BE AN EVOLUTIONARY FEAR OF MY ANTI-MATTER SELF, WHICH WOULD OBLITERATE MY EXISTANCE IF I EVER HUGGED THE BASTARD. WHO KNOWS?!
