Screaming or howling

[Thursday, October 11th, 2012] (I had just fallen asleep from waking up the first time. Before this dream, I had the Carnival dream.) There was an odd man and a teary-eyed child walking up a quiet path to a large cave. At the top of the path, the man shoves the kid inside, after stripping his clothes off and assures him, "It will be all right, go inside. I am going to help you. This has to be done." The bare child has no choice, really. He lacks sureness in his feet, as he walks into the cave, almost as if he is afraid to fall from a cliff. It was so dark, you really could not tell if there was a dropoff or not. The kid takes a little, but now he is in the center of the cave. You can see him hunched into a ball somewhere in the dark with your dim nightvision that no one else but us has. The man wants to do this where no one will find them. Suddenly- I am the boy. I see nothing but pitchblack. The light from outside does not enter this cave. "I am coming in~" a whisper violates the silence, but is carried along like a screaming wind. I take a step backwards- but I hear my footsteps crunch in the sand a few times. I stop and listen- I hear a "crunch... crunch... crunch... crunch..." at such an irregular beat. Something is different now and off- my skin began to crawl. The cool air suddenly became so cold, it hurt my skin. The crunching is growing closer and closer and closer. It had to be less than a yard away... I throw up my hands in pure terror in a pathetic attempt at self-defense. I touched nothing- just waved my arms around quietly. Then someone SEIZES my hands violently and shoved them down to my side. They lean their face closer to mine. I became semi-lucid- just in time to witness some... THING... with a sunken face staring at me dead in the eyes with soulless milky-black charcoal eyes. The face quickly morphed into <PERSON>. "Do you want to see my noon?" she whispered through the dead silence of the cave. "Do you want to see my noon?" She stares me dead in the eye with a blank expression on her face. Then she slowly opens her mouth wide- and two fists pushed together... slowly crawls out of her open mouth as if someone inside was pushing them out. They began to open and creep towards my face to grab it. "WAKE UP WAKE UP WAKE UP." (Imagine making two fists in front of you like you are holding a steering wheel tight. Push your hands together like that. Then, holding the bottom of your hands together where it joins the wrist imagine them opening and unrolling like a flower. That is how she tried to grab my face.) <I woke up.>
