Hi,

I am a guy who has night terrors and such, and really want to continue believing it is. Recently i had a dream that just wont get out of my head and it happened a few weeks ago, and i feel that i wont forget it until i get it out of my system. I had a dream that a tall figure i would say 6 ft 4 walk towards me with a sort of steriotypical private eye uniform, u know, the hat and coat deal. he just walked up to me and offered me a hand and i just took it. Walked out of my apartment and through the front door. Literally like a cut from a film to another scene i was laying on a padded table just being looked at, fully clothed. Then suddenly found myself in bed next to my girlfriend nudging her saying there is someone over there.


In the morning i woke up and said i had a weird dream, my girfriend also, she said that she saw a tall figure with a coat and hat on by the front door. since then i told her lets talk about it, and she said she wont. It is a scary thought and i would like the opinion of others to be added. I am going to sleep soon so if i dont reply swiftly...my appologies.

Get one of those motion cameras. The ones that record when something movies. Then you can have a look at it to see if you did anything or anything happened to you.

dont u think thats a bit pricey, especially for a student with very little money haha sorry to burst that idea but its very doubtful, its a great idea but not now. thanx for the input

i dont think having a camera will help, if you are having a nighttime visitior, id think that he/she would have some type of tech that would simply make your camera malfuction

Alright -
Just take a small piece of thread and tie it from door knob to door frame.

If it's broke the next day, you'd know the door had at least opened....

Or did you lierally mean walked "through" the door?

sorry for the lateness of reply, well the string could work, and i very much doubt i walked through a solid door lol. The only thing that would bother me is that ill be paranoid whenever i see the string broke, i can just as easily break it myself for whatever reason. I have read a lot of stories on here, and i have a fascination with the supernatural and sci fi mysteries, i would like to think its to do with the fact that i look at this all the time that i made a dream about it rather than actually having a visitor. The only thing that worried me was that my girlfriend saw the image i described that night, and well does that mean they are interested in my girlfriend and not me.

I been thinking this through quite a bit:

1) im the one who was taken away from my gf

2) i was fully clothed, not that im not thankful but normally in abduction cases you are not, please correct me if im wrong

3) She only remembers seeing it looking at her

4) i remember being on a table, nothing really as such happening to me

5) I dont really have a past of abduction to my knowledge

6) Im not that special

Some things to me just dont add up at all as a real abduction, just felt like a 5 minute quicky

Well having the same "person" in both your dreams really sounds strange. But think with yourself if you really have a reason to be scared. As far as you told us here nothing bad happened. If I was you I would be more carefull and try some comunication on the next dream (if it happens). In the end I think you two should not worry that much about it, just relax and try to keep yourself busy. Being paranoid about it won't help you anyway so stop worrying too much. Always vibrate good, think positive and elevate your dreams and I wish you and your g/f all the best.

ScottMan offered a solution to see if it really happened.
You stated that it was too expensive. I would try barrowing one
JustSay doesn't think it would work. I would give it a try before giving up.

I suggested using a piece of string on the door knob. You state that you would be too paranoid if you saw the string broke.

Question -
Do you want answers to your experience? Aren't you willing to try anything for those answers and see if they're really happening?
Or
Are you dis-allowing all suggestions, so as to keep some big mystery going.

Don't want to sound like an A**hole Shadow, but it seems that I've read numerous posts from people who come on here looking for answers. When suggestions are put forward in answering those mysteries, there's always an excuse as to why those ideas wouldn't work, without even trying.
And from there, my friend, I can only conclude that the answer really isn't being sought. Only a perpetuation of the "mystery"

yes its true i want answers mate, but i also want to live comfortably. Im sorry if i dont aggree with ur solutions, but they would not work to begin with for the reasons i stated. the idea of borrowing a motion camera i thought of earlier, but i dont know anyone who owns one.

What i can do is use my webcam to record anything while i sleep. only issue with that is trying to save it after. might be some trouble.

In reply to beer maiden, stressing over things does not help at all but not stressing over the fact that someone was in my room unwelcomed is just well insane! If i do find something wrong the police will be the first to be called upon.

I also suffer from night terrors and have for several years.
Normally it's jerking awake in the middle of the night startled out of my mind for no apparent reason.
And, yes...I'm afraid of the dark. Always have to sleep with the TV on and the bathroom light on.
Alot of abduction cases seem to be lying on your back on a table etc. and usually that's all someone can recall. If even that.
I think alot of stuff is erased from our memories.

Hya ShadowHunter,
i've read your experience and i've found it very similar to an experience i had, i mean the figure that you describe, he was very tall, suited and trilby hat, it can be scary sometimes, when it's a new experience, i was 8yrs old when i had mine, i think i've posted the full story somewhere here, maybe i will look for it later, if not maybe i can share it later at some point.
I hope you feel ok now, and any questions you have feel free to ask, maybe this is the right place for you to find some answers/ or a least to talk about things, i'm relatively new again and i'm getting to know the rules and how things work around here so Happy Searching

Well if you want to stress about it do it but it properly, next time try a contact, you can also be very paranoid about at the point of calling even more sh*t to yourself and your g/f.
I believe that the visit that you both had was not for real but in the dreams dimension, and with that you wont be abble to record nothing, nada. Maybe this "Man in Black" was trying to tell you guys something and if it's going to hurt you it will come back, the best deal is to keep calm. Keep your mind clear of paranoias and try to take it cool! Nothing bad happened so stop punishing yourself at the point of going insane. If you're interested I can talk to you via messages here in the forum. Good luck.

The higher your vibrate the higher are the chances of good things coming to you.

Hi thank you so much for the advice. Well night terrors are generally a bitch and they do make u think, and its something that i and a lot of other people have to deal with. Last night i had another one but was able to control it, and luckily my gf was there again and she didnt seem to wake up this time.

Ill share this dream though, i have gotten into the habbit of remembering dreams and realising while im sleeping. In this dream i was just sort of flying around like superman which i wouldnt say is the weird part cos i often dream of flying. But i had the first time i woke up and i was in a really really weird house where black shadows were sort of chasing me then sort of engulf me. Looked very much like a floating black hood coat that wasnt zipped up. and when i woke again was laying in my bed next to my gf only able to move like a finger and when i tried to yell it was only a whisper, which is said to be sleep paralyses, sorry im well bad at spelling. Was extremely scary cos i like the fact im a pretty strong guy, helps myself feel i can take care of myself when needed. What i could see was very little, couldnt turn my head but i could hear some noises but can easily b put down as pipes or wind.

I definately like Scotty's idea of the string... its something simple! ^-^ If you've read a lot of threads, people always put loooooong tasks down or things that will take more than eight minutes... or cost money...

Hooray for Scotty, he's more brilliant than us! ^-^!!!

AAAAhhhhhhh.....Schucks.........Noktuka.

Very kind of you.

Simplicity, is the key to genius. (I'm as simple as they get!)

Seriously -

Just makes sense.
If I thought I was being abducted, and going out the front door, I'd first want to know if it was really happening.......

An answer of "I would feel paranoid if I saw the string Broke", tells me that they really don't want answers.......

Personally, I'd want answers, regardless of how it made me feel.

Yeah! Next time you go outside, open the bloody door and say: WHO GOES THERE?! PISS OFF! THIS IS NO TIME TO BOTHER PEOPLE, I'VE GOT TO WORK IN THE MORNING FOR F*CK SAKE!

Also when you feel something weird, you stand up for yourself and turn on all the lights in the house, wake up everybody and get really angry and tell whoever to leave you the bloody alone. It could really work.

:laugh: :smokin: :alien:

If you and your gf had a dream abut the same person could mean 2 things the way i se it.
1: you both had experienced something involving a hooded man lately, could be in a movie etc.
2: you and your gf have a certain bond to echother.

Yes i know nr.2 seems a bit weird, but would not be suprised if more people have experienced similar things.
Me and my closest friend have known echother almost our entire life, and we started to think very alike after some time. To the point that we can finish a line when the other is talking. Many times if he is going to tell me something, or vice versa he starts by saying my name to get my attention, and i can often answer before he have even started to talk.

And we have also dreamt about the same things many times.

I have to say, i have a hard time believing stories like this, but if you are concerned, i figure the easiest solution is to tie a ribbon around your wrist (preferably with an identifiable design) and attach it to a bedpost. Not as pricey as a motion camera and definitely not conclusive...but if you have some experience like that again and the ribbons broken, you'll know it's something to investigate (at the very least it means you are sleep walking).

sorry i havent been around, some issues with the internet in the house, well im gonna try the string thing i guess, i have a lot of weird dreams and i want to put it down as that but ok, thanks guys

Cool Shadow!

Let us know what you find.
(Not sure if it would be better if you find the string broken or un-unbroken) :shrug:

Interested in hearing the results though!
