Atually Nightmare on Elm Street is apparenlty based on a true story- Wes Craven was supposed to have read a newspaper article about a boy who was having nightmares & refused to sleep-when he did he didnt wake up! Seriously I have had similar experiences for the past 4 years, I don't dream of Freddy but I feel myself being dragged downwards to a place I dont feel I want to go, I have to really to pull myself back & sometimes its quite scary. On the plus side I have some fantastic dreams, I recently had a feature film length dream about 3 aliens, usually when I dream aliens they are the short grey friendly type but these 3 were the preditor type,blood & gore everywhere but it was still quite interesting to dream a whole film!
