A Very Creepy, Haunting Dream

Tweet

So, last night I had one of the creepiest dreams I've had in a long time. And I have no idea why I would have a dream like this. I know some people really believe that every dream means something, but oh my gosh I hope they're wrong! In my dream, I was home with my parents, my younger sister, and my 3 year old nephew. My dad left the house, I told him bye, and I only found out from my sister that he was going to Ireland! I thought it was weird I hadn't known beforehand that my dad was going to another country for a while! But oddly enough I didn't seem to upset about that. So then my mom leaves the house, just to go shopping or something. So now it's just me, my sister, and my nephew. I decide I'm going to go out and get us all a treat (it's night time). I get to my car and pull out of the driveway, and all the way down on the other end of my street I see two police cars parked with their lights on, but no sirens. When I get closer to them (and I get to my turn) they just turn their lights of. I think about it being odd, but I finish my turn and then continue to drive. All of a sudden it is raining really hard, and up ahead I see 3 or 4 more police cars, and there is an officer outside his car raises his hand to stop me. I come to an abrupt stop and roll down my window. The cop tells me, "they are bringing tanks in." And all i could say was, "what?" I was baffled! The cop told me they are bringing tanks into my community because of the paratroopers. I look up at the sky beside my gated community and see men with parachutes falling from the sky. At this point in my dream I feel totally threatened and scared. I go right home and go into my house to protect my sister and my nephew. I make them go upstairs into mine and my sisters room (they are connected with a bathroom) and I keep watch out our windows. Then I see a man walk into our driveway gates, and to the side of my house, towards our side door. the man was covered from head to toe in a white sheet. I felt petrified! But my only concern was getting back to my sister and nephew (and I also remember worrying about whether my mom was safe somewhere). The dream ended with me telling my sister that there is a man by the house in a white sheet, and I may have said he had a gun, not sure about that. And I think it's important to mention that EVERY ASPECT of my dream was very accurate to real life. My house, it's layout, my street layout...even the detail of the gates and poles at the end of my street. And the entire mood of the dream was just panic. What could a dream like this possibly mean!?!?!?
