I was awakened about 4am when someone slowly put an arm on my shoulder as I slept. I felt them snuggle up and then... gone! Maybe it was our daughter climbing into bed with us instead? Upon waking in the morning, my wife says: "Did you have some kind of nightmare in the middle of the night? You woke me up with your trembling and murmuring..." That's when she had touched me. She said that my disturbance had wakened her and that she watched me in the night literally trembling with fright... until she woke me. I answered her that I remember having a nightmare about being with my brother and watching a parade of ghosts through a wall in the corner of some house. I remember being reassured to be with someone else when she woke me and I remember thinking about getting up but being afraid to do so, so I tried to fall back to sleep and I did. I have occasional nightmares. One is a classic alien abduction scenario (although I would claim no actual experience), one is a face-to-face encounter with what I call Evil Incarnate (the main theme is absolute terror of looking It in the eye... but doing so anyway), and the third is the kind of thing from last night-- encounters with departed spirits (grew up in a house that had some aspects of being haunted). Anyone else have a pattern of nightmares. I have a very vivid dream life in general and have always enjoyed it! It's not fun to be scared but it always passes.

When I was younger, I used to have a recurring dream of jumping out of a tree across the street from my house and waking up before hitting the ground.

I know I have at the least several recurring dreams, whether they're exactly the same or recurring themes. The only one that I remember is being in college and finding out I either failed a class on what was my last semester or forgot to take a class needed to graduate. There are several others where either in the dream or immediately after waking I get the sense of deja vu and realize I've had it before and that it's a recurring dream. I had that feeling one day this week after waking up, but now can't remember what the theme/dream was. I feel confident in saying though that none of mine are necessarily scary nightmares though, luckily for me.
I never have nightmares. unless having a recurring dream where I'm back in high school or college and hadn't gone to class all semester scrambling to figure out what I need to do to graduate counts as a nightmare.
The last series of reoccurring dreams I had was way back during elementary years. I've had a few nightmares here and there since then. The ghost ones are pretty exciting looking back. I had a dream once where my then-gf and I had a fight and I was really pissed at her for the whole day after I woke up. That was interesting.
yea I used to get this one about being raped by this chick as she stared me down. All i could do was sit there and couldn't move my hands or anything and I only woke up once to find i still couldn't move as my whole arm was asleep and I got those really bad tingly needles.
I never have dreams...that I remember anyway. I guess they say you always dream. I really wish I could lucid dream. Interesting stuff.
I get this same dream occassionally. I'll be back in school and realize I have a crucial test coming up and I haven't been to class in FOREVER. A result of high anxiety, I guess. I used to have a recurring dream that I'd be in a speeding car on the freeway trying to drive from the passenger's seat. I bet that one is pretty common, too.
Spoiler Spastic alien looking creature that starts off fairly creepy but gets pretty lame when he starts defending against some sort of laser attack from a chihuahua and rave dancing in his wheelchair. Not all that scary, really.
