NIGHTMARES discuss your nightmares heres (nonrelated to my username)

My last nightmare I was walking around with some co-workers in a historic district in a city. There was a building there that was completely collapsed on one side. This place has appeared many times in my nightmares for some reason. It's very ominous, and always haunted with a dark energy. I tell my co-workers to stay away from that place as I keep moving past it, but they stop. They poked fun at me for being scared of it and started throwing bricks at the building. I get more scared and walk away as fast as I can, not sticking around. I hear blood-curdling screams. I don't look back, but I know I'm the only one who was alive. I knew they shouldn't have messed around that cursed building. I was now being stalked by whatever killed them. It was a dark, panther-like figure, black as night, bony, pale, corpse-like eyes. I could see it as it walked out under a street light behind me. https://i.ibb.co/M6zPGhw/pixai-1792621466760860166-0.png It didn't seem to see me directly. Maybe it was blind. It started smelling though, and that led it closer and closer to me. I kept circling around a car so it wouldn't run into me, trying my best not to make a sound. I was cornered. It stopped right in front of me and stared at me directly with those dead eyes. And then I woke up.

1st Nightmare of The Day, Age: 7-11 when I had it. Idk if anyone remembers the old Goosebumps shows Slappy? I remember I loved the show when I was younger, but I was easily scared by scary stuff, especially puppets/dummies. It must have been after watching an episode with Slappy The Dummy in it or simply just talking about it with my older siblings? But, S5 ep5 "The Haunted House Game" of Goosebumps was an episode I always loved and remembered well, mainly because of the part where the kids are stuck in a hallway/hallway-like room and the door continues to get further away the closer they tried to get, that was something that both amazed and terrified me. Well, in my dream I remember being in the house I'm currently in today. The hallway is extremely small and narrow, it doesn't take long to walk from one room to another due to the size of the hallway. But in the dream I remember I was running from Slappy as he "chased" me, I could hear his creepy little laugh behind me as I ran, he was probably taunting me for being so slow. I remember running for me and my twin's bedroom downstairs, and every time I was close to reaching my destination, the hallway would extend to an indescribable length, or it would seem as if I was trying to run underwater. Each time I did manage to reach the knob of the door, it was too late. Slappy would push me through the door and murder me in very gruesome ways. The first one I remember was him tying me down to me and my sister's bunk bed and gutting me like a fish, I remember looking up at the puppet and feeling absolute terror at the fact his eyes looked so dead but his lips were an ever present smile (I mean, what else did I expect from a puppet?). He pulled a knife out of nowhere and ignored my begging for mercy and slowly glided the blade against my stomach before cutting in. I don't think I could feel pain in the dream necessarily, especially pain I've never experienced before, but I remember feeling the prick of a knife in the dream as I do know what it's like to have a knife prick your skin. In the dream I remained awake during the torture before choking on my own blood and dying, each time I died the dream would repeat itself, but the torture would be different every single time. Maybe the dream actually traumatized me? XD Cause I can never remember the other ways in which I died, but I do remember jumping awake and even stiffening up in fear for a literal few seconds before my mind processed I was awake and could relax, my stomach felt extremely numb too when I awakened due to the phantom feeling of being gutted. I have had a LOT of nightmares in which I die actually, and my dreams like that are usually so gruesome lol.

Well, I normally have nightmares but last night it actually was a pretty good dream. Me and a girl were play wrestling on like a picnic table. Like I'd try to hold them down, then they'd flip me and try to do the same, but we'd also keep each other from falling off. We were just like having so much fun, laughing and enjoying ourselves, but in the background I could hear people calling us like, disgusting and rude. Basically acting like we're doing something wrong just be being out in public. Ultimately I'd call it a dream more than a nightmare. But my normal dreams are like, me drowning in darkness or literally getting washed out into the ocean, or stalked. So it was strange to have something different happen.
