This is an old Nightmare I had once, that I recently found again in one of my old notebooks and posted onto a dream interpretation site right after I had it. Because I thought I might want to read it again/share without searching through my old notebooks (or going to that hard to find site) again I thought I'd post it here. It's probably the only dream I've ever had (next to my first lucid ^above^) that has become engraved in my memory and also the worst nightmare I've experienced. Changing the font to red, so I can tell it was a nightmare.

well I've had this dream once before (at least i think i have, everything felt like i experienced it before. well I'll get to that later). this is a kind of long story, but it was soo weird. i remember it almost perfectly and it's been 6 hours now since i woke up.

OK first the dream starts out after i die. i wake up in a weird Aztec style temple. on the other end opposite from me. there's a weird symbol (kind of like a tribal design, it was orange.) on the floor there was the same symbols (except these ones were dark purple). covering the entire floor.
then i got my first sense that I've had this dream once before. and it told me that the orange symbol would lead to heaven and all the other ones would lead to hell.

so i start at entrance to the temple. and the only way to get to the orange symbol is to jump on these stone slabs (connected to the ceiling from chains). so i almost fall a few times, but eventually get to the orange symbol and I'm transported to some place.

this place is very very colorful (like an LSD trip). it's looks like a bed room, but it;s huge and full of shelves. on these shelves are all kinds of interesting trinkets (i don't remember why they were interesting, just kind of hypnotic). so this store/house is full of a bunch of people (strangers). and they just seem like they're high or drugged heavily and they're just laying around, doing nothing.

so i try to talk to one of them, and right when i do out of the corner of my eye, i see this freaking eerie black cloaked figure. it's wearing a mask (i think it was red), it's holding one of those things monks use (with the chain connected to a urn type thing, with smoke pouring out of it. i don't know what they're called, but their used in religious ceremonies.)

anyways, this cloaked figure starts waving this smoking urn around and purple smoke is going everywhere...now it really gets crazy. everything starts moving in super slow motion, i start hallucinating (the dream felt like i was anyways, but now it's like in high gear), then i get a sense of deja-vu again (like i had this dream once) and then i got the feeling this wasn't heaven it might be hell and i was tricked about the symbols.

so after this thing goes away through a door. it's gone, awhile later. i return back to a normal state of mind. then this black person next to me, starts talking to me but i can';t understand him except one word "relax". but i try to stand up and wander around some more. and then i notice the entire place is filled with doors. and i turn around to see the cloaked figure again, trying to sneak up on me (this happens a few times), he looks more evil now. and i get a sense of deja-vu, telling me to slap this thing around. so i start chasing him. and this goes on for awhile, i can't catch him.

then the dream kind of skips to me being chased by him and scared out of my mind. he's still wearing the cloak, and has the urn full of purple gas, but he's not wearing a mask anymore (he looks like a reptile..kind of). for some reason i feel like i knocked his mask off and saw his face, then i got scared and started running from him. like i said this goes on for a while. but then the last time, he starts waving his purple gas stuff around. and i hold my breath to try and not breathe it, and everyone (the strangers) around me start freaking and going completely nuts. then i take a look at the black guy(who tried to talk to me earlier) arm. and his vein are throbbing and i can see frogs coming out of his arm and his arm seems to be mutating (growing tentacles), i get the feeling he was transforming into something like the cloaked thing. so i take of running and right when he';s closing in on me (the cloaked figure) and about to catch me. I wake up.

I'm scared, I'll never forget that dream for quite some time. i tried to see what it was trying to tell me. and the only thing i can think of is that I'm lazy and in bad health and i need to quit. cuz it seems as long as i didn't try to do anything and i just sat around doing nothing. the cloaked figure wouldn't try to sneak up on me. (but i don't know anything about dreams.)

EDIT: i don';t know if it's important or not but i could completely control myself. and this dream felt really real.

plus should i post this in the spiritual section as well. cuz it seemed very epic and i think i'll remember this one for a while.

but i remembered this and thought it might be important. everytime i saw the cloaked figure trying to sneak up on me the entire colorful house went black.

and i don't do drugs, i smoke cigarettes and i just quit drinking.

i don't know if i'm describing this very good. but the only way i can describe the cloaked figure, is he feels looked, moved, and felt like the definition of terror, fear, and death, i don't know. but if anyone ever asks me what death looks like, i'll give that description . the dream doesn't scare me as much as picturing what he looked like.

It was really a strange dream though. The mask this thing was wearing was kind of like a porcelain mask, with a human face but featureless.
kind of like this except not as much detail. I think I pooed myself after thinking about that nightmare again.
