I had a similar dream earlier last year.
It was one of the strangest and most surreal dreams I've ever had.
The sheer panic was so real, I can't really explain the horror
Of the unknown in any tangible human way.
People were fleeing, trying to escape from the ships above.
What's strange is the detail in the ships, in an almost meticulous masterful design I remember their curves, and their contour.
Their metallic raw and serene feel. I remember while they were stationary above the houses, and streets, they were lowering what looked to be elevator type mechanisms straight from the mind of Arthur c. Clark..
This is one if the only significant dreams I've had in some 10 years, and for someone is seriously into science fiction, I almost never have dreams that are science fiction in theme or nature.
There is almost a prophetic element to the dream, but I won't attach that myself, I'll leave that to those who do their interpretation.
For someone like myself who loves the idea in theory of this situation happening, I can tell you, it was the single most scariest event I've ever had to brave, even if it was a dream. I never want to dream this again.
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 3277084 I had never had a dream about an alien invasion, but I along with what appears to be several other individuals have had a very lucid dream within the last six months.
My dream was more of a military style scenario - but I was at home. I could see fighter jets fighting other fighter jets. There was bombs I could hear in the distance.
I recall the fear and panic I was feeling and this surreal feeling that something terrifying was about to happen.
Then in the latter part of the dream there were these space ships that descended and hovered a couple hundred feet above the ground, they were everywhere.
They were non-violent to begin with, they just kind of sat there as if they were doing a survey or something...
I recall panicking and trying to get my family and everybody to an underground bunker. Nobody would listen.
Then out of no where a fighter jet fired upon one of the alien ships. It caused little damage to it.
Thats when the alien ship, all of the alien ships, began dropping these vessels on the ground. I was not close enough to get a good look at what exactly was dropped, but I recall there being a fog that seemed to permeate from them.
The end of the dream was me trying to get my family and run, but having this absolute feeling of "it's too late, you had sufficient warning in advance". We all ended up being enslaved or died from the vessels they dropped, which seemed to be a poison gas of some sort.
Once again, I never dreamt anything like this in my life - and then I did. I told my wife about it that very morning I awoke, other than her - I have not mentioned this dream to anyone because of the feeling I get, the feeling of failure when I recall it.
