Last night I had two nightmares that both woke me out of my sleep in a panic.
There's the short version for the Newgrounders with ADD (about 95% of you) and also the long version for anyone who cares:
********************************
Short Versions
1) I walked into my kitchen where my dog was barking at something out the back door. When lightning flickered I saw someone kneeling at the back door trying to break in. I woke up in a panic.
2) A large man walked in to my house who resembeled The Hunchback Of Notre Dame. Despite my efforts to hit him with the door he continued to walk in. Later he had disguised hmiself as a gypsy woman, and I woke up when I pointed out his disguise and said "There you are!".
Long Versions
1) I was flying around my neighboorhood (I think using an umbrella, like Mary Poppins) which had nothing but dead grass and bushes everywhere for some reason. I had a dog who was in the backyard (I don't own a dog in real life), and I swooped down and screeched at the dog like a banshee. The dog panic and jumped on top of the house. Later I took the dog and went inside. It got very dark outside and started to storm. I walked into my kitchen where my dog was barking at something out the back door. The kitchen lights were off, but when lightning flickered I saw someone kneeling at the back door trying to break in. I woke up in a panic. After a short time I went back to sleep.
2) I lived in an old creepy mansion with my daughter (I don't have a mansion or a daughter in real life either). We were loking at some creepy paintings when a large man walked in who resembeled The Hunchback Of Notre Dame. Despite my efforts to hit him with the door he continued to walk in. Suddenly we were looking at paintings again, when my daughter pointed out the man again. I go after him but the scene changes yet again. I was now talking to a gypsy woman in my house about how to get rid of this man. She wore large robes that covered much of here face. I saw a protruding forehead coming out of the veil so I pulled it aside, and saw the Hunchback's deformed eye on the side of his head staring at me. He had disguised himself. I pointed my finger at him and said "There you are!" I woke up from the dream at this point, and in real life I had pointed my hand forward and blurted something out. I went back to sleep for the last time that night.

Well, that's it. I rarely have nightmares, and I found it particularly odd that I had two in one night. Nothing frightening has happened in my life recently, so I'm not sure why I would suddenly have nightmares.
Does anyone have any ideas what might have caused this?
