Every night I've been having nightmares. I don't know what to do. I've been drinking coffee, listening to music, and pretty much everything I can think of to keep myself awake. The nightmares are different some nights. Other nights I have the same thing over and over. The latest is the one I'm willing to post. It probably isn't much to anyone else but after living in a haunted house and being touched I'm sensitive to these types of things.
I'm in the house I mentioned before. An old woman had died in our basement and the house itself was built on an old battle ground, as are all houses I suppose. I had been dreaming other things this night because this nightmare wasn't very long. However, I only remember the nightmare. The whole seven years I lived in this house I had always been afraid when climbing the stairs. I felt followed... so I ran. In this nightmare I had that same fear. Something was following me. So, I ran. But it caught me. This dark evil thing that's in every single one of my nightmare, had snatched my leg. It's touch burned like fire and I try to scream, but no sound came out. I have no voice... I never do. It has me and I'm dying. I can feel it sucking the life out of me. I cry and fight but it's no use. I'm going to die. In one final attempt to keep my life I grab it. It feels like a skull only all I see is darkness. I squeeze and hear this blood curling screech. Then I'm awake and gasping for air.
I've laid on my side and woke up in the same position. I've tried coloring before falling asleep. I've tried meditation music. I've thought happy thoughts before calling it a night. But now there are no more happy thoughts. Only fear. What is this thing that constantly keeps coming for me? Why? Please...
