    Two.

    1. I dreamt of a weird building that was a glass building. It was sort of like a barn and some parts were on rollers to like… Let the building open up? Just an odd dream. Nothing scary or exciting, but the building was neat. Within the next few days, I stumbled across a random video on YouTube (pre 2008) and there was the exact same glass building house barn. I watched it a little and they did a walk through, everything was exactly my dream. I fucking transcended physically and went to go do something else. It was just too weird.

    2. I was like 9 or so and was going to bed. My bed was against the front end of the trailer home by the window. Making this short, a fucking human hand slowly rose up from below the window. I thought it was outside. I stared at it for a bit. It did not move. It didn’t do anything just like… Stayed there. A hand (with arm) like someone was reaching up from below. After a bit of staring and nothing happening, I wanted to see if it was real or if I was hallucinating. I quickly poked at it. I FELT IT. and watched it get pushed back from my poke before returning to the same position. I ran the hell out of my room and slept in the living room. At the time I was a lone foster child living with a single older woman who was extremely serious and treated me like a burden. No way she was messing with me and she even got mad that I slept in the living room. No windows were open and all perimeter doors locked. That haunted me for a while. I’m not a supernatural believer but also cannot manage to draw an explanation other than the fact that I was a young child going through a significantly stressful situation with nobody around me that I knew.

        I actually tried looking for it like a year later but couldn’t find it. When it showed up originally it was just on my feed which was also super out of place. I’ve given attempts here and there but no luck, probably since more than a billion videos have been uploaded from there to here. I’ll give it another quick search. If you don’t see the link, I haven’t found it.

        E: OK so this is not THE video, but I’m pretty sure that this is the house. I remember it being a like… House with wheels where the roof moves, there were two levels. And lots of glass. Pretty sure this is the house, but again, the exact video would have been legitimately over 15 years old.

        E2: forgot the link

      The human mind is a weird thing. That second one sounds like a very convincing hallucination to me, even feeling the hand. It could be you were in between that state of awake and asleep, it definitely sounds like the kind of thing someone who has had sleep paralysis experiences.

        As a result of narcolepsy, I regularly dream while half awake (think while you’re falling asleep or waking up). It can sometimes be hard to remember whether something happened in a dream or in real life when in that state.
