Is it normal to have frequent nightmares like this?

(Almost) every night I have dreams about the same man killing/harming/kidnapping me and/or my friends. Obviously I would've had to have seen him before to dream about him and he seems quite familiar, but I'm just not sure where I saw this man. These dreams absolutely horrify me and I really want them to stop.

    Dreams don't always have literal meanings, some of them come as a result of how you feel mentally or physically. Sometimes we have nightmares because our body needs us to wake up quickly e.g due to sleeping in a position which is difficult to breathe in. Dream are often recurring because our brains are mulling over the same emotions that keep recurring in our waking lives. Also your brain may make up new characters from faces/ parts of faces you have seen elsewhere while awake, that why you might feel worried about recognising this man.

    Sorry for the long post, I just thought I'd give you some peace of mind by letting you know the dreams might be mixed-up messages from you mind trying to explain your discomforts and feelings, not warnings that you or your friends are in harm's way.

    You can dream of people you've never met, your brain just made their looks up. The only problem that's worrisome is why the dream keeps repeating. Haunted house or something? >.>

  • I wonder how people dream about those they haven't met. I have had dreams with one person in particular in them who I haven't ever met.
