Note: - This dream may or may not have been inspired by the trailer for "The Gallows", but I feel that the general inspiration simply came from the name of the film. - I cannot think of anything different I did before bed, and I cannot remember getting cold at any point, so I do not know why this horrible dream happened. Just stroke of luck I guess. [Plot begins]: I am at my house. My parents and I are searching the house, and heading to look out the windows. We know that there is something wrong; that something terrible is happening. We all knew we were looking for a dead, hanging person. I thought they were going to be outside of a window, but I did not see anything. That is when we went out onto the porch. It was a silent night, and pitch black. We did not see anything. Then <PERSON> turned on the spotlight. There they were. Two, dead, pale, hanging corpses strung across the two largest trees in our yard on a thick, grey cable. We gasped, muttering fearful phrases to ourselves as shock overtook us. Chills ran up all of our spines, and the terror began to set in. An omniscient "voice" told us (seemingly through our minds) that this was the beginning -- and that we would be the end. The bodies swayed in the breeze, cold and lifeless. We ran inside rather frantically. We did not know what to do. We had to live, but knew we could not. [The dream fragments...] [Plot continues; change setting to behind house]: We are running through a small path, looking for an escape we know we cannot find. We look up and freeze. Hanging in the trees above was another thick, grey cable. There were two nooses ready for use, waiting patiently for a catch. We all freaked out. [The dream fragments...] There is something about my mom getting snatched, but it is very unclear. I get a sense things got better after that point... There was a ransom, some negotiation. [Plot ends; change setting to bus]: So I am on this bus, and I know I am in Speed, but I think I was taking the role of <PERSON>... not sure. However, I forgot the rest. [Wake up]
