Reoccuring childhood nightmare

As a child, I had a very frequent reoccurring dream that always terrified me. I would be brushing my teeth before bed, where out of nowhere my mom bursts into the room and grabs my arm and tells me “They’re coming” or “Theyre here” Or something along those lines. After she says that, she would forcefully take me to my room and hide under the bed with me. Then, these tall men in bubonic plague doctor bird masks walked in the room and tried to find us very slowly. The dream always ended with the terrifying bird mask slipping under the bed and staring at me. What freaks me out the most is I was probably 6 or 7 at this age, and had no idea what the plague or the doctors even were.
