Week 2 #1 Recent Dream

A recent dream? I don't remember most of my dreams. I've had a few really big nightmares when I was a kid. I was at my house, and I couldn't find my parents. I couldn't have been more then 6 or 7 and I just kept on looking for them. The house was dark, and I just felt so afraid, but I didn't know why. Then I heard something behind me, and it was like a horror movie. I couldn't stop myself from looking back. Behind me was this big dark shadowy monster. I tried to scream, but I couldn't, and I tried to get away but I was frozen to the ground. I knew that the monster had eaten my parents, and my siblings, and it was going to eat me.

I woke up terrified, and I had to stay with my parents for the rest of the night. There aren't any other dreams that I really remember, I usually remember them for about 10 minutes and then they are gone. Even nightmares don't really stay all that long, they usually have to be very intense and I need to talk about them right away for me to remember. It's the terror that sticks the most after a nightmare. Even if you can't remember why, you just know that everything is not alright.
