I have dreams that repeat the same basic scenario but with different plots, over and, and over, for sometimes years at a time. Currently, and for the last year or more, I have had dreams about being haunted. I am always in some sort of house, I know right away that there is some type of evil presence, I can feel a heaviness. Sometimes it attacks me physically, throwing my body across the room, or cutting me. Sometimes I am just wandering through the house waiting for something to happen. Knowing that there is something not alive, and not good there with me. Objects get moved, and sometimes I can hear voices, and growling. But I never know what they are saying. I have seen faces of the "ugly" ghosts in mirrors, or just out in the open, face, to face.
Before this the dreams were always about some type of impending doom. Like the worlds coming to an end. The entire sky will be red, and raining fire, and I can see people dying in lava pouring up from the earth. I always seem to be far off, but close enough to feel it, watching, and waiting for it to reach me. Some have tornado's in them hundreds of them, I am always watching, and seeing them coming towards me. The fear is knowing that it is coming closer, and closer, and all I can do is wait. I dreamt about these doom dreams for a very long time, a couple of years, with no change in theme of the dreams.
Why do I have these nightmares that repeat themselves, differently, for such long periods of time?
