I had this dream when I was just a little boy about 6 years old. It was nighttime and I was driving with my mom in a car down a dark road. There was a little hill on the side of the road and there were a bunch of little creatures sitting around a blue camp-fire. There were blue tiki looking torches sticking out of the ground. One of the creatures looked like Lowly Worm! Then time like warps and I'm back home in my mom's bedroom and for some reason one of the little creatures and my mom were playing hide and seek. The time warps again and I'm at my old school playground only it has a path to a woods. Then some random running kid slams into me while I'm facing the path. Next thing I'm on this kid's back while they're running down this path and I kept shouting "Don't go down there!". The kid kept saying "Stop steering me" and kept trying to throw me off. We kept going down that road and then I woke up. I've always remebered this dream. |
