    I do, every few months and the dreams are terrifying. I had one last night and the demons grabbed me as usual and instead of shouting out big J's name like I usually do in these dreams (not out loud mind you) I shouted instead ''get away from me Satan'' Ha!

    I don't believe in either but obviously my fear of demons growing up as affected my subconscious into adulthood (I'm 40).

    Anyway, as hilarious as it is, its an improvement in my mind, calling out Satans name instead of Big J. Don't you agree.

    No I don't dream of demunz. I never have. Even as a kid raised in the org, I always asked, if the demunz are out there trying to kill us, then how come I'm still alive? Maybe the demunz already knew I wasn't believing any of it and left me alone? Hah!

    About 9 months ago my mother went off on me about how Satan is trying to kill me and his demunz are just waiting for a chance to snatch my life. I told her that I am not scared of Satan or the demons. She kind of looked at me like I was calling down Satan to my presence. I asked her if she was afraid of Satan, she said yes, he's a very powerful being. I said, (playing along like I believe Jehovah is the almighty supreme being) well, I'm not scared of Satan because Jehovah is more powerful than him don't you agree? She said yes, but you still need to fear Satan. I said, I don't live my life in fear anymore, I have the true supreme being behind me (which is not Jehovah). She kind of let that go and changed the topic instantly.

    She is so brainwashed.

    Aside from childhood monster dreams, I have had 2 demon/devil dreams in the last 10 yrs. I am in my mid 40s. And they were terrifying being a grown up and not being in control as I often am when I dream.

    I, on occassion, am lucid and aware that I am dreaming during dreaming, probably like many others too.

    My first demon dream occured shortly after being 'born again'. I had it in me to pray for others much more than I had ever before and in my zeal of praying for others[ and in obvious ignorance] , I added the fallen angels to my prayers that they may also be redeemed and forgiven. ...........................That night I had the strangest dream and was shown many images of things over vast periods of time. I cannot remember the images of that dream, but I certainly remember the feeling. Dread.. I understood none of it except that such prayers were an offense to God. I stopped immediately such prayers.

    My second demon dream occured after reading a book called 'Hostage to the Devil' [Malachi Martin] which contained 5 or 6 stories of recent documented demonic possession. He, being a writer, spun a very spooky read. I had a dream during that book where I witnessed a seemingly decent fellow get given to Satan, and Satan took him into a room and came out a few moments later with this man being turned into two seperate beings as like his soul was split in two and one body could walk and the other body being led like a servo motor control would be the speaking part and it repeated over and over 'what have you done to me?, what have you done to me?' This fellow looked like a futuristic nazi genetic nightmare gone bad. Once he had caught a glimps of himself in a mirror, he shreiked in me like nails down a chaulk board. Shortly after this shreik, the two bodies were changed into 2 german shepard dogs and I was made to understand that this was a blessing for this man. Better than eternity with Satan.

    Those were quite creepy to me.

    Once when i was a teenager a friend of mine and I were driving over the Rio Grande and saw what appeared to be headlights under the water. We stopped to get a better look and got out of his pickup. We soon saw the lights approaching us. we saw a phantasmesque figure flying toward us so we jumped in the truck and drove away. For a few nights I had terrifying dreams about it. I have been compelled to go to whatever river I live by to investigate. Last week I had a dream about it and was again compelled TWICE to walk along the Kings River here near my home. Both nights I heard shrieks and other scary sounds. I take my pistol with me, not so much to fire at an apparition but in case I find a danger from THIS SIDE.

    I have also had a recurring dream since I was a kid. being cut apart by dark, faceless figures. So disturbing and terrifying.

    I have one re-occuring JW dream/nightmare. I'm back at my parents house, either visiting or living there I don't know, and its Sunday morning. And they're asking if I'm ready for the meeting, nicely but with a purpose. I get ready, without further prodding, but unhappily. At the meeting I'm sitting there and I'm reflecting on how I've been going to every Sunday meeting for the past while, although not doing service or Tuesday nights. I'm wondering why or how I allowed myself to get roped back into this. I remember I was, at some point, not going at all. Why am I here now having to listen to this nonsense. I'm disappointed with my lack of resolve. Then I wake up, still frustrated. And, after a few moments, I realize I'm still in my bed, still am not attending, breath a deep sigh of relief, and fall contentedly back to sleep.

    Demons are just a subconscious representation of your struggle of believing in the unbelievable. Your demons is really your intellectual side surfacing, and your yelling "Get behind me Satan!" or "Jehovah!" is your thought-stopping mechanism.

    Your welcome. You owe me 2 cents for my services.

    I have no recollection of dreaming about demons, but I do see their demented thinking and finger prints all over religion, especially the more gross caricatures such as the Watchtower and the Westboro Baptist Church (the "most hated family in America").

    I used to have some of those dreams. I also used to be very scared when I played some computer games with demonic stuff. I would swear that I could sense them; I felt like I was inviting them into my life. I would start saying gods name to ward them off.

    Then a funny thing happend, as I lost my belief in God I also lost my belief in demons. I am no longer bothered and I can no longer sense them. That tells me my mind was playing tricks on me.

    The only demon dreams I had were when I was the demon in my dream.
    I did use to dream frequently about Jason Vorhees though. He was after me for years.
