I had a lot of nightmares and I didn't want to go to sleep as a small child - but I blocked the memories out, and now I can't remember my dreams or lucid dream..

Two that I can remember are:

There was one where I didn't see anything scary, just felt complete stress, stuck in an underground labyrinth, yellow glowing walls with dark symbols on them.. trying to get out...

Another one was very vivid and I can remember it.. though it wasn't the worst at all...

I'm in a church, similar to one I have been to, but it seems foreign. There are a few people inside focused on the preacher, but I'm gazing sideways at the solid dark wooden pews, out through the gothic windows. The outside of the church is actually my home-church parking lot, and as I look out the window; I see a figure zoom by halfway up the window, down the length of the outside of the church. It's a typical looking witch, flying on a broomstick. (I was born in 1989, this happened before HarryPotter existed); I run the length of the church toward the back where the entrance is, but before I know it, mind racing, filling with fear I am caught by the witch, I am lodged under a large circular saw, and it is currently running, being slowly pressed down through the middle of my body, rending me in twain.

I wake up.
