Exceptionally
fun vivid nightmare/dream last night. I
seemed to be in some kind of simulation or theme park that was horror themed
and all over this park there were numerous scenarios that could play out so
that I could live a scary movie.
No, not like that. But I would like to say this is one of the better Goosebumps books. |
There was
an area was a valley in which there is a crashed or landed UFO. Dependent on where I was approaching it from
a different threat would appear, I got cyborgs akin to the Necron or Borg
coming into the valley. I am sure a
different angle would have resulted in little grey men or Lovecraft’s Mi-go.
Another section
was a dark neighborhood that I could hear screams coming from one house,
shadows moving across the windows in another, an open garage with no light but
the sound of power tools revving up, and another with an argument between two
people turning violent. This is one area
in which the horror felt a little too human and identifiable, ghosts are fun,
spousal abuse is not.
There were
some distant things I didn’t visit. A spooky
castle, a haunted forest, and a more traditional looking amusement park area
that I am guessing was patrolled by some kind of actual monster… or more than
likely clowns.
The last
thing I visited was the one that was the most subtle and strange. I was in what looked to be a regular hotel
bar. It was somewhat swankier than
typical, as everyone was dressed nicely, but as I moved thru it you could see
the horror elements, someone selling mysterious drugs, someone following you
for unknown reasons, and two identical women in red dresses that I am guessing
one is supposed to be the “evil” twin.
I guess I
should watch more mediocre horror films before bed from now on, I get to wander
around a “West World” or “The Game” type dreamscapes. I woke up with a sort of emotional high from
the tension, “threat”, and myriad of possibilities. As for the movie, I watched to potentially
induce this experience it was “Demonic (2015)” on Netflix. It had several jump scares, which I disliked,
and two good actors that were slumming it and given nothing to work with.
