I once had a dream where I was drowning, when I woke up, terrified, sweating and gasping for breath I found that I actually could not breath because I was sleeping face down in my pillow.
That scared the shit out of me even more than the dream.

There is also the recurring dream I have that I am falling and just as I hit the ground or spiky death or whatever I wake up and it feels like I just landed in my bed.

One where I was in a car accident and somehow got ejected from the car, My mangled body was lying on the road while EMS was rolling up to me. My body refused to move at my command and only twitched. The messed up thing was that before the accident I turned to the woman driving (my imaginary GF I assumed) and told her that I loved her. Needless to say that I woke up very confused, and lonely... But mostly lonely.

One time I survived a nuclear war by going inside a cardboard box with woodland critters, but eventually I died when I got out of the box and there was a nuclear bomb. It sucked, but some of my friends (a squirrel, and a raccoon) survived.
Ahh... I know death by nuclear fallout as well. I was at some hypothetical college, moving all personal effects in. The place was situated in the middle of some picturesque valley, mountains sloping up and out in all directions. The campus was situated smack in the middle, and was composed primarily of ultra-modern architecture, i.e. lots of steel and glass and white marble. But the valley itself was lush and verdant, so the overarching personality of the place was of near-perfect unity. A seamless mingling of natural and manufactured elements... ... ...

God, I digress. Anyway, for no apparent reason, nuclear weapons began detonating on the horizon. The throng of people around me turned and fled, but instinctively I knew running would do me no good, and I was ultimately doomed. So I decided I'd walk into the oncoming wall of radiation. I recall it being pretty, in a way. At this point a red haze started filling my vision until that's all there was. And after that I don't remember anything.

I haven't had bad dreams of any sort really since I was like, 10.
That is an unusually vivid dream though...I suspect you gave it some thought that it could be a premonition? Have you been watching FlashForward? >.>

EDIT: One of my friends let me know he had a dream that showed all of his pals (including me) being horribly killed by zombies. (He was currently addicted to Dead Rising)

Charming stuff.

*Ahem*.. Anyway, I've never ceased to be in my dreams, not anyone else either. By dreams are usually just bizarre, like men giving birth to babies who bite off their own umbilical chord and take over the world or my home valley being flooded by a gigantic tidal wave of caviar. You know, that sort of stuff.

Right, now to the formalities; Welcome to the Escapist. Here you will find much pleasure and entertainment. behave yourself (not that it will be a problem for you, I see) and you will be cared for. Beware of MaxTheReaper, though, he's got a temper that one, but he barks more than he bites.

Glad to have you onboard sonny, you seem like one of the good guys.
Thank you. So far everyone who's posted here seems friendly and welcoming. Well, as much as can be expected with such a morbid topic of discussion.

And yeah, this thread is exclusively dealing in dream-fatalities. I do die quite a lot in my dreams, but the number of ones that are just freaking weird are in even ampler supply.

Take this for example: I lived in a city not unlike Venice. In my home, I had six ocelot kittens that all lived in a big pile of blankets, and there was a big alpha male lion that hung out in there as well. He also talked. A bit like Aslan. And to travel anywhere, you had to hold onto a rope tied around a pleisiosaur's neck, and it would drag you through the canals to your destination.

The dictator of the city was a hippo queen. She wasn't very nice, on the same level as Caligula when it comes to depravity and violence. She regularly called in random members of the populace for inspection, and killed a few just for the fun of it. The day the dream was taking place, was one of those inspection days, and I had a plan. When everyone was lined up and awaiting her highness to pass by, I removed a very large kitchen knife hidden under my shirt. When she comes by, I would leap out and finish her off. It was a bit nerve racking as well, because she had a lot of guards, and there was no way I'd end up as anything but a martyr. But then, a whisper came down the line that the queen present, wasn't the queen! It was a stand in! No martyring myself that day... And turns out I didn't know what the hippo queen looked like to begin with. When I went outside, she was floating in the air. Like a gigantic Macy's Day Parade balloon.

God damn strange.

Jeez... kinda' went overboard, didn't I?

Yeah, a tad.

Anyway, it's funny, becuase you seem to remember a lot of your dreams quite vividly. That only happens to me at relatively rare occasions. Is it so, that you have a clear remembrance of what your night's adventures?

I was once bludgeoned in the head with something, didn't get to see what because what caused this was apparently my quick rising and smacking my head into the wall, so I got an in-dream death and an IRL headache from it all =D

If that was your first real post, then you've exceeded most of the qualifications us "vets" put down ;)

One of the things I've found about Lucid Dreaming is never to think you've beaten someone, as they immediately come back from defeat. What does work though is shifting your opponents weapon to something blunt. It's reasonably easy to imagine dying from piercings, but tough to imagine being killed by blunt trauma (other than million foot drops).

I would talk about more, but I'm about to go to sleep and I really don't want to influence myself. :)
