Ok, let's face it. We've all had nightmares. Probably of monsters chasing you, or a traumatic event. But as a young child, probably 4-6, you've maybe had childish dreams and nightmares. Can you remember any? I sure do. But they were very weird. Being honest, my nightmares were scary at the time, but looking back at it now, I realise they were hella weird. Scary, but weird.

Once, I had a nightmare about a vampire. I was at a ball. It looked amazing, the guests happily dancing, the chandelier illuminating the room, the small clinking of glasses, the music, everything. But in the middle of nowhere, a guest turned pale. Chalk white. Then another one. At first, no one noticed except me, and I thought it was normal (I was really dumb). But then, they started attacking other guests! I was shocked, confused and scared as guests fell dead, and the two continued their attack. By now, I had followed the other guests, whose screams and shouts filled the halls as they ran out the grand castle. However, the castle seemed to be huge, as we took a good 10 minutes to navigate our way down. As we ran through the garden, I felt something watching me. I looked at the tall metal fence beside me, and guess who was there. The two vampires stared at me from the other side of the metal bars. I ran as fast as I could, and reached the gate leading out of that place. But before I could run through, something knocked me over, and I fell on the grass. Before I could turn around to see what it was, my vision turned black. The next thing I knew, I was awake in my own bed.

You didn't think there would be just one, did you? Nah, there's one more.

I was probably aged 6 when this nightmare happened. 

It was a normal day, and I was walking in a city. I wanted to go somewhere, so I waited at a bus stop. I was watching a video, when I saw something in the corner of my eye. I lifted my head to get a better look. There, on the other side of the road, was a man. He looked like he was uncomfortable. It wasn't really a big deal, since it could just be he didn't like socialising, or he wanted to see a doctor, I thought. But something about him interested me, and I squinted my eyes to see all the details. Before I could though, he started to act like an animal. Literally. Low but loud growls could be heard, and he leaped on the nearest person, biting into their flesh. Frozen in shock, I didn't move until I was pushed to the ground by a shit ton of people running for their lives! As I snapped back into reality, I ran. To something that would keep me safe, but in a panic, the city looked bigger than it really was and I couldn't spot any cover. Even worse, in the dream, I ran for about five minutes. The zombies must have took over quite a bit of people by then. So when I saw a bus, I was relieved. It can act as transport, and it's a shelter. But I forgot about time. As the doors to the bus opened, I eagerly started to climb the stairs, but instead was greeted with a bus full of zombies. I fell backwards as they jumped on me, and I woke up.
