Ever had a Buffy related dream?

[garuffy]

Morning!
I’m curious to know if anyone else ever has dream about the character? I tend to have pretty nonsensical dreams so there has been times when BTVS is featured vaguely. However, one time I had a dream me and Xander worked at an amusement park together, we kept walking around the park trying to find somewhere to be alone (😏 I think we were gonna make out or something, go me!) but everywhere we went the place was crowded and we kept getting interrupted by people. I had another dream that me and Spike had to do some kind of ritual together which involved burring a water bottle in the dirt to free someone from the demon dimension. Spike helped me very begrudgingly and after I hung out with Willow and Buffy!
Let me know your weird BTVS dreams

I had a Buffy-related dream that involved this forum and members of. It was not a PG-13 dream so I cannot go into details here. But this was the first and only time I had such a dream.

I used to have dreams with Buffy in it all the time when I was little. Like my superhero that would come in an save the day from the different monsters in my dreams. We're talking like 8-9 years old. I remember I used to be scared of the fisherman from I Know What You Did Last Summer, and had nightmares about him, but then I would start having Buffy come in and save the day.. which is funny because Helen (SMG) was killed in the movie.. lol

I have number of dreams and they are very formulated in their setting if that makes sense?

They are recurring but happen in number of settings though the people in those dreams do vary as does the subject, but more often that not I do drop into those places on most of the dreams I do remember.

One of those 'sets' I play my dreams in is the series 4/5/6 Sunnyvale boulevard with the magic box, the coffee shop...'the Hydrant wasn't there' SoCal streets

 

[VampireSlayer07]

Yep plenty. I've had save the world scenarios that involve her, the ninja turtles and the power rangers on numerous occasions. Then one with her and Cassie from a series called Hack Slash, more random serial killer stuff though instead of big time woeld problems. And some I don't think should be discussed here lol

A lot, and I've shared a few here years ago, but don't feel like looking for them.

An interesting bit: plenty of times, but not always, Giles is my father. In one, I was back in middle school (the one I liked) when Mom was with a bunch of terrorists attacking it, but luckily I had the best of both worlds (size and age with underestimation and adult skill and confidence). Later, I was talking to Dad who drove up, commiserating how crazy Mom could be when Giles drove up (in the car he actually drove in the early seasons, not as flashy as my dad's Mustang), and I said bye to him, because Giles had come to take me home. There was nothing weird about it, and Dad acted as if it was normal.

Though in one I went to find Buffy for help (can't remember why, but it had to do with a family reunion in Texas), couldn't find her, but Giles came along. It was funny because he was commenting on actual plants and vermin in Texas saying these are definite signs of an impending Apocalypse with me telling him, "Naw, it's always been like that." 😀

I've dreamed of Buffy plenty of times. We were shopping together once.

A lot of times it's an episode, which I may or may not take part in. I had a nightmare of Angelus after me specifically once.

A fun one, one of those where I wake up and then catch one quick dream before getting up, was of a Faith trailer that could actually happen (but the movie was clearly going to insult Buffy).

A creative one was where Dawn and her class went on a field trip, but some pollution monster that breathed out its fumes, a spirit of fury for nature, was a problem, and Buffy had to get Spike who wouldn't need to breathe it in, and even hoped some of the mercury would add some kick to the whiskey he'd already drank. (He was dusted toward the end by a shock ending, but he ended the pollution demon first.)

A really complicated one was Willow using magic to help soldier Xander back up and somehow get him into the new Initiative, but somehow the Initiative turned it around and Xander was the Big Bad, but in the same way Angelus (or even Dark Willow) was, trying to save him from himself. I can't remember the details of that one.



One unusually interesting one didn't feature Buffy, but somehow I found myself in a parallel world. Skipping other parts, I got arrested and was placed with others who also had "invalid ID" and was angering and freaking a detective out as we both talked about Buffy, which the cop had never heard of and thought we were messing with her head.


One bothersome one (I don't think ever shared here before, probably because I don't want to talk about his background, though this was many years ago), a boy I was helping to raise (and was watching Buffy) dreamed his dead father came to him as a vampire, but then I, who was also Buffy, dusted him. He then realized he was a vampire now as well and I/Buffy chased him until he woke up. Not that this got him to stop watching Buffy. (Hush was his favorite ep that he watched over and over despite all the Gentlemen nightmares he had.)


I've had no such dream in years.

Last night I dreamed of an alternate Season 4. Cordelia was still possessed (Jasdelia), but Connor was still an infant so apparently pregnant another way. It felt natural in the dream, but reflecting on it waking up I know it did not mesh well. At this point, all I remember is that only Angel and Connor (still a baby) survived, not counting Cordy (since it was something wearing her), who at a stalemate agreed to let them go if they left her alone, and Angel had to get baby Connor somewhere safe before he dared to do more...but as "Cordy" grew in power, she found her power could not affect vampires (so no enslaving Angel, and in this case, Connor), AND that "a soul in a vampire created static" that made her confused and irritable (a lot like Glory), and so went to kill them after all. But I woke up before she found them.

First time for me to dream of the Buffyverse in years, at least in a meaningful way. (Not too long ago someone tried to bribe me with Buffy dvds and I said I already had my own, not counting that.)

Once I had a dream where someone I knew was finally going to watch Buffy, but then she started at Season 7, and I was just going "Why the heck would you do that?!"

 

[burrunjor]

Yes, I was trapped somewhere and the Gnarl was in another room. I knew it could find me at any moment and I was contemplating whether I should try and run or wait for him to go. I could hear his sing song voice from the other room and the sound of his previous victim screaming through clenced teeth and even the sounds of strips being pulled off. It was absolutely terrifying and I woke up in a cold sweat. Or rather I hope it was a cold sweat.

 

[velveteenvamp]

I recently had a great dream about Glory but I definitely can't say what it was about here🤣

 

[thrasherpix]

I recently had an actual Buffy dream, as in it was happening around me, and in this case, I was Buffy.

Keeping it short, it got to where I was defending people from vampires, but it was a hopeless cause (and more gory than the show). But then the vampires fled to a lake, excited, and actually invited me along (and stopped eating victims). And I felt tempted, but knew if I went then I'd be enthralled as the vampires were, so I chose to go to Giles.

The presence at the lake was calling to me, kind of Jasmine like, and it terrified me. I took off running for Giles...made it a few steps before I woke up. Don't know what was at the lake.


I've had weirder dreams, including where I met Troi and Crusher (ST: NG) on a steam train in Mexico. I was someone else then as well, though I don't know who (but I saw my own reflection, and it wasn't mine, nor can I place the image from anywhere else).

 

[TamsinValencia]

Tons. More thsn I can remember.

Most recent one was where the gang and I were hanging out at the bronze and Buffy was bringing the drinks.

 

[Last Watcher]

Dream about very little else 😀

I'm rather lucky in being able to somewhat steer my dreams.
I have no idea exactly how it works, but I've found that if I go to sleep with a particular scenario in mind I can sometimes dream a whole story following that theme.
It doesn't always work, but when it does I have to write it all down the moment I wake up before it fades from my memory.
For that reason I always keep a pen & notepad next to my bed & can often be found with the light on in the wee small hours feverishly scribbling down notes for my latest Fic.
The only minor disappointment is that, try as I might, I never seem to feature in any of the dreams, being merely an observer, like watching an ep on TV.

Although if I was in on the action I could see it becoming PG18 in no time 🤫 😜

 

[Bop]

The only one that I can remember is from when I was like 6 and it was part of a nightmare- the scene where Caleb stabbed that one potential and the other potential is like "No!" just flashed into my nightmare.

But other than that I don't dream about Buffy and it's weird because they say you dream about things that are on your mind but I've thought about Faith every day for the past ten years yet I've never dreamt about her 😔 But I think my brain prefers bringing people I know in real life into my dreams- like ever since I broke up with my best friend she's been in my dreams often and I had one with her in last night.

Ok last night I had a dream with Buffy and Willow in, but they were both aussie.

It was a long weird dream, not particularly interesting. I drempt that someone brought me a house in Glen Forest (a suburb in the hills, not somewhere I have ever considered living) but the house was purchased "as is" and was very damaged, contained a whole lot of stuff, and had hidden rooms.

The patio was like the Bronze, with its scaffolding type balcony overlooking the house . There was a long ramp down to the backyard, a small strip of thick bushland with little roo pathways all through it and a primary school next door. On the other side was a big business area, half wood construction and half was a rodeo store, in the same big shed building. There were heaps of red headed men, all workers. Apparently I was their boss now because they came with the house. Willow was the only girl, and the manager. None of the men seemed to understand what I said, so I had to tell Willow so she could communicate with them.

Willow took me up a red gravel driveway to the front of the property at the bitumen road. A pub was included in the purchase. It was a round building, like a HUGE hut and was decked out a bit witchy inside, in a tacky way. It was even called the Witches Cauldron.

I had my two dogs with me and another ran up to meet us, this new dog came with the house too. I said I had to take them back to the house because the lunch service was about to start at the pub/restaurant and it was a health hazzard.

Back at the house in a yellow bedroom, the walls started to ooze and turn green. I called someone on a phone and said the home was going to be too much for me to manage on my own. They said they would send someone to help.

I heard upset yelling from a room I couldn't find. The new dog lead me to a hidden room in the middle of the house. It had 3 small connected rooms, one library like, the end was a bathroom. There were mushrooms and fungus around the walls of the first room and it was set up like a lab in the middle. Buffy came in from a bathroom, yelling at a photograph, all annoyed. She might have even said struth.

Buffy started ranting that he died and left her with this mess to deal with. Some sort of very potent self medication killed whoever he was but it was so important that Buffy had to keep it hidden, yet also try to share it with the world.

Then we got very hot and wanted to go for a swim to cool down, so we found a little river swimming hole with little waterfalls (this is a real place near glen forest called Hovea falls but we didnt name it in the dream, i just recognized it when i woke up) . Buffy suggested we swim down in a small waterhole so we could get underwater rather than just sitting in the shallow falls, but I said there was a crocodile (when i know full well there are no crocodiles there).

Another asian lady came up the hill and told me I was stupid there are no crocodiles there, only leeches. Some boys jumped in and we all saw something swim up off the bottom, I said oh ok its an alligator then. Which is even more ridiculous because there are not alligators in my state. But the asian lady then said oh youre right and her and buffy jumped in and carried this alligator to a cage at the side of the falls. Just picked it up like a big dog with the asian lady on the tail end. Put it in the cage and said ok lets go for a swim now. And we did. The end. I woke up too hot.

 

[velveteenvamp]

here's one, last night I dreamed about the boards, so I guess it's buffy adjacent!

in my dream, someone here said they were disappointed that I'm a fan of american dad and they thought I was better than that - sorry to whoever I disappointed in my dream, I guess 🤣

 

[Killjoy]

I might have had a dream about Cordelia once or so....that's all I'm gonna say about that

 

[Tome]

Countless. I just don't remember 99.9% of them. 😂

 

[Miss Muffet]

I just had one last night:

It was post-Chosen, and the Scoobies were doing something (in Cleveland I think) when Xander came up and proposed to Buffy in a heart-felt speech (I think, I don’t actually remember it).

While this is going on, I'm thinking "Er... I don’t really like Bander. But it is post-Chosen, and I kind of liked them in S7, so sure, why not."

And so Buffy went, "Sure, let's do it."

So then they went to Hogwarts and Dumbledore was talking to someone (I think it was Lucius) and was like: "Fine, you didn't want a muggleborn teaching this class, well, now it's being taught by a  muggle."

And Lucius was all horrified and blustering, but he couldn’t do anything because of whatever he did to get rid of the muggleborn teacher.

And Xander started teaching at Hogwarts and every underestimated Buffy.

Then I woke up and was like: "If I liked Buffy/Xander romantically I'd totally turn this into a fanfic."

The End

I once had a very strange one. Faith and Angel were both drinking from these fancy glasses but then randomly smashed them. Then Faith dramatically proclaimed "It has begun". It then cut to Fred and Illyria (who somehow both existed) and they were fighting. Fred pretended that Illyria had the upper hand in the fight so that she would grow cocky. Fred then threw Illyria across the room proclaiming that she was "not the damsel in distress". I'm not sure why Fred had super strength in this dream, but she did. It then went over to Angel Investigations and they were discussing their current case. Apparently people kept going into this mini golf place then coming out as hamsters. Wesley agreed to check it out. It turned out that Lilah was behind it. The dream ended with Wesley and Lilah playing mini golf together and drinking red wine. All in all, a rather odd dream.
