Spooky Place Where the Woman of the Silent Scream Resides

I had a dream, and in that dream I stood as if invisible and saw a thing that made me shudder, for I understood full well the horror I was witnessing. I saw a woman brushing her long hair. A man was creeping up on her, but I could do nothing, for no one else was there. I knew for sure she was about to die! I could not see her face. I stood behind this female and the man, who with a knife, was creeping, creeping, and inside my mind I screamed, "Poor woman, you will lose your life!" I woke! Then later in that day I sat to brush my hair and then came Deja Vu. I was the woman of my dream, and at that moment my horrific fate I knew! If you remain here, I shall be your host. At your own peril, close your eyes and dream. Perhaps like me, you will end up a ghost. I am the woman of the silent scream.

Oh, that paralyzing fear where we just seem to not be able to move in our dreams. So nice to wake up. Don't let your dream define your reality Andrea. <3 :)

WoW! Andrea, This well written and "spooky" write gave me the chills. It was like I was watching a horror movie. Clever twist, who knew that the woman telling the story and one in the dream were one the same. This looks like a winner to me. I wish you the best of luck in the contest. I missed reading your amazing pen- Alexis
