Is it normal to dream about someone you hate hurting you in crazy ways?

So,I hate my father,he's abusive to me in real life,but my dreams arnt always just flashbacks to that I have dreams where he's doing things like jump cutting to me in a snowy ally with a chainsaw or turning into satan and eating me or pushing me into a volcano. The dreams couldn't happen in real life,but they're scary as fuck.

    If you dream that your father is beating you, then it implies a lack of emotional connection with your father. If you dream that your father is angry at you, then it indicates that you are doing something that he may disapprove. The dream may also be a projection of your own anger towards him. There are some unresolved issues that need to be worked out. Alternatively, the dream represents feelings of being let down or betrayed by someone in your waking life. You are feeling overwhelmed, shocked and disappointed.

    You might be suffering from a mild form of PTSD. Id check into that.

    I used to have nightmares about this awful boss I hated, she would be in my closet or at the door then shed morph into a troll and try to eat me. Last time I kicked her down the stairs.
    Sorry you dream about your dad he sounds bad enough in real life.

    Uh yes it is normal in this situation but this situation isn't normal. Dreams reflect our thoughts, including fears so it's nothing unusual to feel scared in a dream. Our brain overacts too so that's why you dream about unreal situations like those. You won't stop getting those until you get rid of the problem causing it.
