Feb. 11th Dream
My dream started in a car driving down a barren country road.
The sky was in a permanent state of twilight.
I was not driving, but saw up the road, an unlit road block surrounded by silhouetted figures.
'Let me out here' I said to the others in the car.
Though I did not recognize the other passengers.
I got out and crouched in the ditch off the side of the road.
I watched as they approached the road block.
Once they reached the roadblock they were pulled from the car and killed by the blackened figures.
I crawled in a prone position up the road through the ditch, where I hid in small wooded area near this roadblock.
Cement blocks blocked the road.
The figures became clearer.
They looked to be men.
I stealthily picked them off from the road block and left them dead in a bush.
They looked like men whose bodies had been stolen.
While living, they looked dead, their eyes were unusually wide and sunken in like an embalmed body with it eyes glued open.
They were clearly not human.
There was a small town just past the road from the road block.
I silently approached, and scoped the perimeter of the town to assess what was going on.
No lights, no voices, no movement.
I started climbing through windows, silent as a cat burglar, trying to find out the fate of this town.
Every house I went into there were 2 corpses rotting in the beds covered by blankets, swollen, purple and black from decay.
The odd thing is they were folded at the waist and knees as if it were more efficient to fit 2 corpses on a bed that way.
I ended up walking into a house where I heard a loud noshing sound.
I entered a room and was greeted by the back of one of these fiends, it spine poking out from its emaciated skin.
It turned right as I dove toward it and drove my knee into it's ribcage, caving it's chest cavity in and killing it.
It was eating a fresh corpse.
It was another one of these body snatchers.
I figured there must be more throughout the town.
I diligently and thoroughly hunted each one down and brought death down upon him.
Once the town was free of these vermin, the sun shone down on the town...
