I was in a big sleeping hall with other people. It almost seemed like we were a class. The only people that I really noticed were my sister and her boyfriend. And there was this other guy who seemed to be passive aggressive. He would go on these crazy rants and everybody was a little bit afraid of him. When it was time to sleep, I had troubles falling asleep, because of that crazy guy, so my sister and her boyfriend told me to come closer to them. I almost snuggled up against her boyfriend, but I still felt on edge. He said that he would get up and turn on the lights to show me that I had nothing to worry about and that the crazy guy fell asleep. I told him that i didn‘t think it was a good idea, but he tried to prove a point, so when my sister‘s boyfriend went to turn on the lights, the crazy guy instantly looked towards my sister‘s boyfriend. He looked angry, but at first didn‘t do anything. My sister‘s boyfriend went into the restroom and a couple minutes later the crazy guy got up to go there too. I already sensed that something bad was about to happen, so I tried to warn everybody and try to scream to the boyfriend to be alert, but everything went so quickly the crazy guy attacked him with a knife as soon as the boyfriend got out of the restroom. Some other guy wanted to break up the fight and the crazy guy attacked him too. There was a lot of blood and people were yelling and the crazy guy fatally stabbed the other guy that tried to help. He died and I ran out of the sleeping hall, trying to get help. I ran out of the street hysterically, afraid and yelled at people to call 911, but nobody really reacted. At some point ambulance did arrive and were able to diffuse the situation. When I got back into the sleeping hall, the crazy guy was detained, but he still had an evil look on his face and was talking bullshit. My sister‘s boyfriend who I thought was dead, was just injured. I started yelling at the people around why they aren‘t taking the crazy guy to the hospital. I yelled at the teacher why he didn‘t do anything sooner and how he could enter with a knife and then I woke up.
This dream can be interpreted as reflecting feelings of fear, vulnerability, and a sense of powerlessness in your waking life. The sleeping hall symbolizes a place of vulnerability and rest, where you may feel safe but also exposed to potential threats. Your sister and her boyfriend represent familiar and protective figures in your life, while the passive-aggressive and unstable guy could symbolize inner conflicts or external pressures causing anxiety.
The escalating tension and violence in the dream may reflect feelings of being overwhelmed or threatened by certain situations or individuals in your waking life. The inability to prevent the attack and the sense of chaos and helplessness in the aftermath could signify feelings of being out of control or unable to protect those you care about.
Your frantic attempt to seek help and the lack of response from others could indicate feelings of isolation or abandonment in waking life. The questioning and blaming of authority figures in the dream, such as the teacher, could point towards feelings of mistrust or dissatisfaction with those who are supposed to provide guidance or protection.
Overall, this dream may suggest underlying feelings of fear, powerlessness, and a need for support or reassurance in facing challenges or conflicts in your waking life. It may be a reflection of your subconscious mind processing and trying to make sense of these emotions and situations.
