I had the strangest dream last night - probably because I had some Oreos and milk before bed. Anyway, I was in a home with my friends (we all lived together) and their kids. One of the kids had regular spectral occurences that only I was discovering. Radios suddenly turning on, doors opening, etc. At last I was with other adults when the radio in the room turned on. I went into the room and saw the child laying in bed then looked into the corner of the room and above some bookcases I saw a hooded robe, empty of any body. In a moment I threw myself headfirst into the hood of the robe and as my vision was obscured I instantly awoke.

What surprises me about this dream is my disregard for my own safety and the strange response to jump into the apparition - why? To learn more about it? To stop it? I would really like to know what would have happened if I had not awaken. Once conscious and thinking about the dream I had the realization that for some reason the myth of ghosts, aliens and such all have the common element that these things are hiding from conscious humans. Is that to say that these things are afraid of us?

Very weird and intense dream.
