Thread: When Dream Animals Attack!

Sounds scary, I've had plenty of those mountain lion attacks too.

The only times I ever have dreams of being attacked by animals, it's always been by cats. Not like meow cats though, I'm talking big cats like cougars and african lions.

I'm sure it's because the only wild animals I'm really afraid of while I'm out in the woods are the big cats because they stalk and ambush.

Yeah, the big cats are the most dangerous of them all. We aren't much more than mice to them.


Bear attack
The first time Nose RC ever failed.
This one was during my fall cabin trip


I had just got done doing a WBTB. During my WBTB I had taken my flashlight, held it up to the window, and swept the light across the property outside.When I did this I thought about how freaky it would be if I saw bear out there, and that if I did, I would remember to do a reality check.

So, I then lay down and go to sleep. Right away I have a false awakening. I dream that I get up to do a WBTB. I do the thing with the flashlight out the window, and what do I see. I huge black bear down by the pond! It begins walking up the slope towards the cabin.

Crap, do an RC! I pinch my nose and I can't breath! Shit it's not a dream this time! I switch off the light, and turn and walk away from the window, hoping the bear won't notice me.

But when I turn back around, there is the bear, inside the cabin! I'm aware enough to be confused as to how the bear got through the wall without causing any damage to the window or anything. But I then forget about it as the bear starts making it's way into the kitchen. I'm thinking, "This just can't be happening." I remember what Moonbeam said about a bear getting into somebodies house and raiding their kitchen, And I figure that's what it's going to do.

But then My dog wakes up and sees the bear. She barks and I reach over and clamp her jaws shut, but it's too late. The bear turns it's head looking right at us, and starts coming our way. I slide far back across the bed, and up against the wall. And I keep thinking over and over, "This can't be happening!" The bear stands up on it's hind legs, taking a swipe at me across the bed with one of it's front paws. just barely missing me.

It makes a couple more swipes, and I keep denying that this could be happening. My denial begins to change things. The bear starts to look less and less real, more like a big stuffed animal, until finally it looks like a stuffed gorilla. I get confused and realize that it isn't real at all. I start to realize I'm dreaming at this point, but the gorilla reaches up and lifts it's head off lol.

It's an old girl friend I used to have, wearing a gorilla suite! She tells me she heard I was here at the cabin all alone, and she decide to sneak up on me in the middle of the night wearing the suit, to freak me out. I tell her that it worked, and that I had to do reality checks when I first saw her. Then I wake up thinking "WTF" My RC failed.

And the next night it failed again.

This is one of the best dreams I've ever read. It made me laugh SO hard.

good morning i'm a newbie here and i really wanted some insight on this dream i had..

It was me and some friends joyriding aoung town and we were all drunk one of my friends acts all stupid and both me and her end up at the end of a canal where there's an alligator next to us. i panic and run and yell at her to do the same but she insteads throws herself in the water and start swimmin away from the alligator but laughing the whole time.. i in the mean time avoid another one on land as i try to get to safer grounds and tell her to get out of the water. finally she reaches a bridge and she cant go any farther and i see the fear in her eyes as she realizes whats going on.. the alligator attackes and like in the movies you just see a wave go by and he takes her to where i cant see her or reach her.. i start running to the road to find my friends and instead i find my 2 yr old son.. i grab him and i start yelling as loud as i could for help but you could barely hear me and i run to see if i could see my friend but all i hear is the worst scream ever.. she is in so much pain and i couldnt do anything i keep yelling for help and then i wake up...

Thanks. I get so many animal attack dreams. They turn out pretty funny sometimes.

I'm not much of a dream interpreter, but I wouldn't read too much into it. I get Alligator/crocodile attacks Sometimes too. It's always scarier when seeing somebody you care about getting hurt in your dreams though.

Mine involved a gator-infested Lake. Ironically enough, it didn't involve a gator. Heh.

Starting at the fourth paragraph from the top:

"Incident At Gator Lake"

I was lucid sometime around either the beginning of this dream, or a dream before it. I remember becoming lucid in a parking lot, and asking the DC who was with me (A real friend of mine. Can't remember who) what we should do with our lucidity. I tried so damn hard to remember what the tasks of the month are, but I couldn't. All I could think of was the "Build a Snowman" and "Give a DC a Present" tasks, but knew they were previous tasks. Not able to think of the present task, we went off to find something to do.

Next thing I know, I was out at lake with Brian, Matt and a few others. (Not 100% certain that these dreams were connected, but I'm pretty positive) All around - and in - this lake were castles and other medeival structures that people were touring, so the whole area was like a theme park or something. (Been noticing castles and such appearing more in my dreams. Will start trying to look for them as dream signs.) We were the only people on the lake that actually had jetskis (the stand-up kind) and we were just having a blast with them, hooking u-turns and just opening them all the way up, speeding on such a (relatively) small body of water. There was a dark corner of the lake which turned into a small river, through dense, jungle-like areas, which funneled out into a much larger lake or river, and we were all careful to stay away from it. We knew that there were gators in this lake, that hung out mostly in that area, but it didn't stop us from jet-skiing and boating in the water. Though I do remember being secretely horrified of falling off one of the jet-skis. Lol.

Some time later, we had to go. Matt and Brian went to go get the car, and I sat down in a lobby area, waiting. I had a bag with me that had comic books and some of my art supplies in it, and I began drawing. Some guy, sitting beside me, was a comic book fanatic and started going crazy over my art and the badass comics I had. We sat there and talked about comics for a while, and I forgot that I was supposed to go back up front after giving them a little time to get the car. I didn't really care, though, because I remember having to wait for them for like an hour, before coming to the lake, for something I actually don't remember. (Lol.) So I just sat there and talked to the guy a bit more. Another Brian, from work, comes in and tells me to hurry up, because the other Brian is waiting for me at the car, and I finally get up to leave. On the way out, I noticed that the entire place was absolutely crawling with gorgeous women. The majority of them were Latina, which implied that we were in some sort of South American (Or southern-North American - lol) tourist spot. I was practically tripping over myself, trying to check some of them out, on my way to the door.

Walking out of this place - which was open, over the lake, but enclosed, between the lake and the parking lot - was like walking through an airport terminal. Very modern and commercialized. I had to walk down two flights of stairs that were all surrounded by dark marble and glass. When I got down to the ground level, walking out through the glass, mall-type doors, I came across a little asian kid pretending to be Hiro Nakamura from Heroes. He was squinting his eyes like him, and I could tell he was trying to bend space/time. I thought it was kind of cute, and then turned to walk to the car. Ironically enough, I bumped into the "real" Hiro Nakamura. He told me something important, but I can't remember what it was, and we started walking out to where I knew the car and my friends would be. Way out in front of us, down the line of cars, I see some kind of commotion. A fight or something? I can't tell what it is, but then I see a tiny woman hit the ground. A young girl is screaming, and the woman's body seems to be getting slowly dragged between two parked cars, by something I couldn't yet see. I could hear the woman screaming now, and the young girl came running toward us.

As she approached, we could see the girl was completely covered in blood. It was running down her arms, and splashed all over the front of her dress. Her face and hair were soaked in it. She was screaming something like "It took it! That dog ran off with the baby!!," and was holding her hands out to us as she pled - as if to show a subconscious shock at being drenched in blood, while trying to convey her message. Apparently the dog had attacked the group and was wrestling the baby away from the lady, which is why we saw her being dragged. The rest of my friends suddenly came in view of the incident, as did a few other strangers. It was then that we saw a large, but boney, tan-colored dog running aimlessly through the parking lot. It's face, too, was covered in blood. Those with guns drew them, and started trying to take the dog down. I - somehow knowing it was there - ran to my mom's car and grabbed her gun out of the glove box. The clip and gun were separated, and I popped the clip in, cocked it and ran back to help take the dog down, before it killed someone, or someone else.

The police suddenly show up, and get a little nervous because I don't have a permit to carry a gun. They didn't really bother anyone, though, and seemed to appreciate the help in finding the dog. We were all allowed to search along with them, weapons drawn. At one point, I saw the dogs legs, standing under a truck. I quickly dropped down onto my stomach, drew a bead on the dog and fired. Or, rather, tried to fire. The gun just clicked in my hand. Someone else saw me and dropped down beside me to shoot at the dog, but he was too late, and the dog ran off just as the bullets whizzed passed him. I got up and pulled the clip out of my gun.

Turns out, I had put it in backward.

Flipping it around, I went back in to join the chase for the dog. Don't remember anything after that.

(I got up with the intention to come to DV, find out the tasks, and try a WBTB, but I ended up staying awake.)
