Like most people, my dreams are convoluted and not at all related to one another but something strange started to happen this year and I am having a recurring element constantly find its way into my psyche. These dreams are also the ones that I remember vividly upon waking up whereas most of the time I know I had a dream, but remember almost nothing about it. It's odd and I wanna share it.
The dream always has some sort of different locale but the overall theme is the same. For some reason I killed a person that I was pretty good friends with in high-school. I had successfully hidden his corpse somewhere, but just like in Goodfellas, the property is about to be taken over and the body must be moved.
One of my best friends from high school helps me to relocate the body and thereby implicates himself in the crime also.
When we are moving the body we plant some DNA of another criminal on the corpse in order to frame him (I don't recall who "he" is) and we think we have been very clever. However, then my best pal from high school makes a terrible mistake.

This friend of mine is the same one I referenced before who is always telling lies to try to gain some sort of notoriety. Seeking fame he "discovers" the body and tells the media / police that he randomly found it in the field and somehow this all starts to come back on he and I. Not in a "you're definitely guilty type way" but an ongoing investigation by CSI or something.
There are other, more personal aspects of the dream that keep repeating but the overall theme is the same - A guy who I actually like is the murder victim (by me) and my best friend from high-school who is a terrible liar but a very loyal friend is the person I choose for my partner in crime (dumb idea on my part - but it is a dream.)
Another strange aspect of this recurring dream is that inside the dream, I actually realize that it is a dream - and normally this would force me to realize I am sleeping and then I will immediately wake up... but not with this one. After realizing that this is fantasy I am still stuck in the dream, which can be fun because I know there are no actual consequences for my actions and this is where things get crazy like I have the ability to fly or shoot fireballs out of my hands etc.
This is the only one in my entire life that seems to be like a series, because this has carried on for many months and there is always some sort of new development as I re-enter the fantasy so to speak. I have told the two people (in real life) about their involvement in this and everyone finds it quite amusing especially the guy that has no dialogue because he is just a corpse.
Do you have any recurring dreams / nightmares?
