The blood covered man

Date: 5/3/2019

In the dream this scientist developed a way that he claimed he could kill people simply by turning the lights off. He shows this demonstration where him and myself are in a view room up above watching this other person in a heart shaped hallway where the person is standing at the point of the heart. The lights start shutting off and the test subject is getting visibly scared. When the last light turns off all we hear is screams. Lights come back on and the subject is a bloody mess with blood all over the walls. The scientist takes me into the room to explain more of how this weapon works. We come up to where the subject was and oddly the mess has already been cleaned. The scientist explains that it’s a fool proof way to kill people with no evidence of who the killer is minus one exception. Under the right lighting you can see the outline of the killer on the wall. He shines a light on the wall and you can see almost a perfect picture of a devilish man jumping on the victims dead body. As soon as we see this picture the lights in the hallway start going off. We start running to the exit but the scientist is caught as a light turns off and I see the red devilish man grab him and immediately starts tearing his neck apart with his teeth. I keep running but the last light turns off and I’m in the darkness. Nothing happens. Odly the whole hallway is very faintly lit by an ominous blue light coming in from the left. I sit for a while to face this evil man but he doesn’t come. Hours pass and I’m growing uncomfortable just standing. After so long of sitting I grow impatient and start walking towards where the scientist fell to the devilish man. Suddenly a man covered in blood starts walking towards me in the distance of the hallway. He’s mumbling something and when he comes close enough I see his hands pulling the skin down on his face to where the bottoms of his eyelids peel down and he’s staring at me with psychotic eyes. He starts yelling and walking faster towards me but I don’t move. I can now see that he is covered in blood turning his skin red. He walks right past me and down into the darkness of the hallway. I decide it’s best to check on the scientist. I remember him running into a desk and that’s where the man attacked him. I find the desk and no sign the scientist was ever there not even a drop of blood. I keep walking down the hallway and eventually loop back around to where I started since the entire hallway is shaped like a heart with no escape. I ask for them to turn the lights back on and take me out but I get no response. I start walking again and in the distance I see the man with the blood covered face walking towards me. I stand to watch what happens and once again he starts yelling and staring at me with eyelids peeled down but walks past me. I keep walking and when I make it back around I see myself standing where I started. I don’t dare come closer so I watch. I see myself looking confused and slightly scared and then the version of myself about 10 minutes before starts walking the direction toward the scientist. I follow. He walks around the bend of the heart and when I round the corner too he’s not there. I start running to try and catch up to the version of myself. I run all the way around and start slowing down. I walk for a minute to catch my breath but I soon see another version of myself start running. I chase after it. It got a better head start so after the first loop I loose track of him and so I run faster. The blood covered man runs past me in an opposing direction. Eyes still staring at me and yelling. I keep running and suddenly a version of me passes me chasing after the blood covered man, I turn around and chase after him. As I start running I pass an oddly familiar looking man in a suit. He’s got perfectly combed back hair and glasses. He stands idly and watches me, head slowly following me as I pass him. I decide it’s more important to follow this version of myself. I keep running, passing more earlier versions of myself going the other direction. I make a loop back around still running almost sprinting and I see the familiar man again watching me as I pass. I run faster to catch the blood covered man. I pass myself three more times as I’m running. I see the familiar man again as I run past. More versions of myself running the other way. The entire hallway is loud with footsteps. I finally can’t take it anymore and I stop next to an opening in the wall. It’s a small coffee room. One side has an empty coffee pot the other has chairs and non of the blue light is in it. It’s mostly dark. I lean on the wall to where I can still watch the entrance. I can see version after version of me running each direction occasionally the blood covered man runs by screaming. I’m horrified by how much chaos is going on and no idea of how. I decide sitting is only scaring me more so I walk out and start running the direction I originally started. Once in the hallway I start running the original direction I started at the beginning of this encounter. As expected I pass the blood covered man. I make a full loop to find myself standing and suddenly take off running. I turn around and start running the other direction, the direction the blood covered man is going. As expected I pass the familiar man. It makes me angry he’s just standing there. He doesn’t say anything. Something lights within me, anger mixed with fear I start running frantically asking myself what’s going on. I don’t know how many loops I do but it drives me mad. I keep passing the familiar man who says nothing. A few times I stop and yell at him to get a response and nothing. I keep running towards nothing, just running in fear. I come back up on the familiar man and in anger I bite his neck, and start beating him and clawing at him my mind goes black and the next thing I see is a reflection of me in the wall as I’m jumping on top of his dead body. I’m covered in blood. I look down at the familiar man and he’s lying on a desk dead. It clicks and I recognize him as the scientist from the beginning. I’m horrified I just killed my only chance out of here. I start crying and walking with my face buried in my blood soaked hands. I walk like this for a while till suddenly I feel someone in front of me. I slide my hands down my face to see my earlier self staring at me afraid. I scream in agony as I can’t handle it anymore and run past him. I go back to that coffee room and slump down watching the chaos take place outside of the doorway. It overwhelms me enough that I finally wake up
