Relate a nightmare you had.
The story I am going to relate is about a nightmare I had when I was 7.
It takes place during the night, around midnight, in a shadowy and deserted grave-yard. The weather is stormy and I can see several flashes of lightening coming across the misty sky. I am walking quietly but I’m very anguished. I feel that something terrible is going to happen… There are some strange and creepy noises: sturdy sounds of footsteps, rustles of autumn leaves, the moaning of the wind, clap of thunder and suddenly…a very strong howl. I want to run, however my legs are paralyzed and the intriguing creature is bringing nearer… All of a sudden, my sister appears. She looks odd, unbalanced and very unusual. I am very disturbed owing to her sparkling eyes. She takes my hand and brings me into a bleak wood with gloomy high trees. Then I see impressive shadows coming from behind the trees: it is all my family… next, they all turn into werewolves. I scream but no sounds leave my mouth. They take me on a hill just in front of a weird and isolated mansion. When we arrive they start surrounding me so that they can bite me. They all look at me in a very insane way with their shiny eyes. They come closer and closer… and suddenly… I wake up!
In this nightmare, I felt a feeling of fear and anxiety and it was very unpleasant. I think that I made this dream because one of my worst fears is to lose my family. Consequently I had been quite traumatized after this dream…
