Just a tad bit of history with my nightmares, I've had these problems at least since I was 3 years old. I've been to doctors and some say it was a gift how vivid my dreams can be, some have given me some prescriptions to help but they only go so far. I do NOT appreciate this "gift," and everything I describe is exactly as I saw it asleep. I only post just to get it out there and see if anyone else has gruesome, horrifying and vivid dreams as I do.

So, this was a Futurama related nightmare. It's my favorite comedy and I watch it every night before bed, which sometimes can lead to a lot of space themes. Here's one I had a week ago. It was kind of 3rd person perspective, but switch to first person in the second half.

So that was it. It starts in their ship that was just wrecked and is flying through space with only momentum. Everything is life-like, 3D and not a cartoon like the theme usually would be. The ship has 4 women in it, and I recognize Leela attempting to pilot the broken ship, but there's no luck. The women on the ship are worried if they'll ever be found moving at such speeds, and if they are never found how many resources they have until they would die. They start to ration out the food for hopes of getting saved.

[The gruesome part] Before they finish, they realize starvation is not going to be the death of them. They passed a neutron star too close, and its dense gravity was slowly pulling them in. With no technology to pull them out, they accept their fate, but quickly realize the type of death that is coming for them. They scream and scramble, finding anything with a sharp edge to beat the star to it. A couple try to choke each other to escape the brutal death that is approaching too fast but not fast enough. Even Leela was finding something hard and heavy to crush herself under, but they couldn't do it in time. It starts getting hot, so hot that before they could start sweating the couple trying to choke each other had their hands fused to their necks. The screams continue as they see their skin boiling before their eyes, but that would have been better for that to happen first as their eyes start boiling out of their skulls not a moment later. Suddenly I'm looking down at my last sight of my own charred bone peaking through boiling and burning skin. I hear screams ensue while I feel pressure on my limbs - I am on all fours, weakening from excruciating pain, but as I scream, I feel my throat dry up, I feel my vocal chords stick from the high pitch screams and as I relax them it is painful to stop, but there was no control from here on out. Finally, I collapse. Everything goes numb, and I can only be glad that it is over. I can't hear anyone else, and I can only hope they died quickly, and I fade into blackness.
