Last night I had a dream, in this dream and creature that I can only describe is a skinny sad and angry looking creature with the body of a wear wolf and head of an old bear and the claws of a wolverine, had come back into the land of my dreams. To give context, this creature first ever appeared in my dreams as a shadowy figure,when I was about 5 or 6 years old, the dream it first appeared in was a dream where my mom was telling me goodnight, cracking The bedroom door, and then the wolf creature appearing, staring at me, and then running away, the dream would repeat from the point my my mom telling me to go to sleep and everytime it repeated it got slightly longer, and the wolf got closer and closer to me, before it could get me, I eventually woke up and that was the first time I've ever seen the creature. Over the course of the next 10-11 years, the creature has visited me in my dreams countless times, me never being able to see it's face or it's body, only a shadowy silhouette with claws, this creature would always come close to catching me, and would even sometimes cut me in the back with it's long sharp claws, this was until last night... I saw the entirety ofthe creature and it's how i was able to describe it earlier, in the dream I has last night, I was walking around my great grandma's yard (she is now passed away) and the sun was starting to set, so I went inside picked up, ate dinner, and then I decided to sit on the porch, while on the porch, I heard a strange noise, like something calling my name, and then screaming in agony when I went to go see what it was I saw the creature I'd seen all this time, but this time i could actually see it and it wasn't just a silhouette the were wolf bear creature started off looking like a humanoid wolf but while staring at my, it started changing, it's skin being ripped, it's bones poking out of its body as its figure started to change into what I described earlier, a old sad, scared, and angry were bear humanoid creature, it was skinny and ugly looking, this creature then let out a horrifying screech, one on the ugliest sounds I'd ever heard, and then it began to chase me, I climbed the stairs to the front door as quick as I could, it had someone become pitch black outside and when I made it inside the creature started banging on the door, I let my nanny(great grandma)know what was happening and I took the baby we were watching to the bathroom to hide from the creature, the creature had somehow gotten a chainsaw and busted through the door. The creature knew me and the baby was in the bathroom, as quickly as I could I tried climbing out the windows outside, but by the time I got the baby out and got myself half way out, the creature broke in and for the first time ever in my life... I died in a dream, to the creature that'd been chasing me for 11 yrs.
