Wow, man, talk about the subconsciousness.
So, last night, well after 1 AM, I`m laying on the couch, watching a movie ( Heavenly Creatures ), my cat is all snuggled in with me under the blanket...and all of the sudden I hear this whimpering from somewhere.
I was like " What the hell, this isn`t coming from the screen..."
I put my TV on mute, waited 10 seconds - nothing. Started watching again, and after another 30 seconds it starts again and then came a LOUD, LOUD scream from my bedroom, where my wife and my kid sleep.
Dude, I`m faster than lightning, jump from the couch, the kitty also jumped up really scared, I had all the lights on in the house in like a second and a half. I race to the bedroom and there is my wife screaming and kicking, drenched in sweat. Obviously having a nightmare.
So, I sit beside her as gently as I can, as to not scare her even more, I caress her shoulder a bit, then her cheek which is drenched in sweat and I keep calling out her name to wake her up. When she felt my hand on her face, she screamed even louder, but eventually woke up, looked at me and rolled to the other side of the bed.
So, this morning I ask her what the hell did she dream about and she`s all pale in her face and she goes: " What the hell is that Stephen King movie, where they go to find that old woman? "
I`m looking at her in surprise, cause my wife has not read The Stand and never seen the mini series, only glanced at it when I`m watching it, and I watched it the last time over a year ago at least.
I tell her what it is, she then says : " I dreamed about that devil in the movie, the one with the red eyes, who is sometimes human, sometimes not, how he got a hold of me and was dragging me down into some kind of abyss."
" You dreamed Randall Flagg attacked you? Seriously? You don`t even know his name, how is that possible? "
" I don`t know and I don`t wanna know, just the next time you watch ANY kind of horror, especially if it`s based on a SK story, you go to the other bedroom and watch it there. Alone! So I don`t have a chance to see something like that at all."
Well, what can I say, I`m chuckling a bit now about all that, even called her jokingly " Randall Flag fan Number 1 ",
but it sure wasn`t pleasant. For both of us.
I dreamt about Sai King a few times, but never about his characters.
You have a similar story?
Have a great weekend, my friends.

I haven't dreamy about it yet, though.
