Bizarre Dream #8

The other night I had another bizarre dream.

I dreamed that I was at a beach, hanging out and having fun.  A little boy came up to me and told me that another little boy had found a plant.  They wanted me to go look at the plant.  I went over to where the plant was and I discovered it was hideous, so hideous that I was utterly repulsed.  The plant even seemed to have a presence about it–an evil presence, if such a thing can be attributed to something that isn’t sencient.

The boys ran off, leaving me with the plant.  It was so ugly that I had to leave it too.  I went back to the beach but I started feeling very strange like something was inside my head.  I started talking to myself.  Everyone on the beach stared at me as if I were crazy.  I started to feel self-conscious so I left the beach.  As I was leaving, my aunt called me.  She told me that I was possessed and that I needed to come to her house right away for an exorcism.  At first, I did not believe her but when I really started thinking about it:  who talks to themselves like that?  That must be the reason everyone was staring at me.  Everybody knew that I was possessed.

I agreed to go over to her house right away.  My phone rang again and this time it was a friend of mine.  My friend also told me that I was possessed.  My phone kept ringing and every time it was another friend or family member calling to tell me that I was possessed.  For some reason, I don’t know why, but after I got off the phone with yet another person calling to tell me that I was possessed, I looked at my answered call list and saw that I had no calls.  That would indicate that no one had call me, but yet, my phone had been ringing all day long.  Something told me to call my aunt.

She talked to me as if she had not heard from me in a long while.  I asked her when she wanted to come over.  She sounded very surprised that I was coming to the house.  I do not visit often.  I told her that she had called me earlier and asked me to come over.  She said she didn’t remember that but if I wanted to come over I could.  I decided that whatever was possessing me, maybe some kind demon was using the contacts in my phone to communicate with me.

I went to my aunt’s house.  I told her about the phone call.  She said that she would perform the exorcism.  She made me get all these candles and light them around the house.  We did some other things, but I can’t really remember exactly what.  Then when it came time to do the exorcism, she said that she didn’t want to do it anymore.  She asked me to leave.  I left her house and went over to my friend’s house to ask him for help.  I told him that I was possessed and he said he had something that would help me.

He gave me a cell phone, a deck of cards and some other stuff wrapped up in a napkin.  He said, “These are all the tools you need.”  Then he shut the door and I was by myself.

Then I woke up.
