I dreamt the grim reaper was chasing me

I dreamt I was being chased by the grim reaper but he was not holding his sythe but something smaller. I was doing a great a job at keeping away from him until he came from behind and I felt a sharp prick on my bottom. Things go black and I wake up in the dream in the hospital where my folks and doctors tell me I was In a coma for three weeks and when I tried getting up to walk my legs felt like jelly and I had my fiance help me walk to the toilet as I wanted to pee and then I woke up before I could pee...

Sex dream and then dream guy pees on me???

So. Last night I had a dream that I was in a dimly lit room by myself fully naked preoccupied with something (painting my toes? Reading a book? I don’t know) while laying down on a bed I don’t recognize but feels like mine. It feels like it’s a little before midnight. Door of the room opens and my head registers it as a musician I adore in my waking life. In the dream we seemed to already know each other and are probably in a FWB situation. He sees me and pretty much moves immediately to missionary (I’m so sorry if this is tmi I just want to put the whole picture out there) and it felt like it didn’t last long but it was sensual and sexy and everything. I remember feeling weird about the sounds and possible faces I was making but I still enjoyed being with him. He finishes and I’m just laying there recouping when he puts down some toilet paper next to my head and literally starts peeing on me. I freeze up in a what the fuck fashion and he continues until I slowly sit up and walk to the bathroom wiping my mouth and eyes. I am stunned but am trying to remain even keeled and still attractive and I tell him he has to warn me when he wants to do that and he is surprised that I was not into it and tells me he’ll work me into being more kinky... in my waking life I broke up with my boyfriend 2 days ago and today my car broke down on the high way abruptly in a VERY dangerous spot and it had to get towed... What stands out to you guys? What do you think?

Recurring childhood dream came true over a decade later. Dad got cancer.

When I was 5/6 (?) I had a reoccurring dream for maybe a week that my father would pee blood, then I would sit on this black stone floor in front of a fireplace, and my dad would walk out of the bathroom and look at me with a face like he was trying to warn me.

When I’m 16, dad’s diagnosed with stage 4 prostate cancer (47 years old, super young for prostate cancer). He pee blood. We move to a new house with the same black fireplace from my dream, where I would sit nearly every night.

He died at 53, and I can’t stop thinking that he somehow his spirit went back in time was trying to warn me in this dream. Because what 5 year old had the capacity to repeatedly dream of their dad urinating blood?

Thoughts?

I went to use the restroom in my dream and the head of my penis fell into the toilet bowl. What does this mean?

I felt like using the restroom in my dream, as I was about to start peeing standing up, the head of my penis literally fell off and into the water! The was no blood or anything, just a shrived up stump where it had been and the the tip of it in the toilet. For some reason, I wasn't that freaked out at the time and just calmly picked it out of the toilet and called 911. The 911 operator calmly said they had no ambulances at the moment. I walked to the hospital, which was suddenly outside for some reason and I looked at the two ambulances parked outside. Then my alarm went off. What does any of this mean?

Satanic Rest Stop Dream

I was alone traveling on the interstate and I pulled over at a rest area to go pee. Realized the rest area was abandoned and decided to go in and explore. Front door was standing open so I walked inside. All the sudden I walked through basically a portal into an all tile room with blue flames for light. The walls were tile mosaics of Benjamin Franklin $100 bills with a censored little strip of "&$#%!" over his mouth on each one. There was a pentagram with deer antlers surrounding it and something else, maybe an altar, in the center of the room. I got the feeling that the Ben Franklin things on the wall were a symbol of how the devil manipulates money to draw people into evil ways. I got the urge to pull out my phone and take a picture, but my gut feeling said not to. I did it anyways and as soon as I did I heard a maniacal laugh and the door slammed behind me and I woke up.

What do you make of that? Scared the sh*t outa me.
