Every Time a Bell Rings
May 25th, 2010 by John WolfeLast night was a rough one filled with weird, bizzaro nightmares. Once every few months, I have these vivid, recurring dreams (at least in theme) where I’m interacting with several ghosts or spirits in a cemetery–and last night those particular dreams were up to bat again. Anyway, because of all my nocturnal stuff I was in the mood to post something funky today and I think you’ll agree, “How Wings are Attached to the Backs of Angels” is pretty darn funky.
Oh yeah, just in case you’re wondering, my title for this entry was inspired by Zuzu’s line from “It’s a Wonderful Life.”

Jeez, there must have been something in the air. I had a dream last night that I was at my childhood haunted home and I stood inside the darkened house and looked out and saw the deer grazing at night like they used to, only I knew they were the ghostst of the deer. Then, I saw my childhood dog out there rounding up the deer like he used to, only his fur looked strange like a bird had pecked at it with tufts of it sticking up strangely and I realized this was a ghost version of my childhood dog and he wasn’t good–I felt frightened by it and backed away from the window, turned around and Lindsey Lohan was running through the house lighting it on fire as she laughed. Okay, does it beat yours? That video was very cool-nice find!

Woah, this was very intense and most dramatic. Normally I share volumes on these public comments but this is one time I will save my inner thoughts for you in private my dear friend. Really excellent find!

Thanks for posting this GREAT video! I would say I’m sorry that your having nightmares, but then I might not have ever seen this vid, plus, at least with me, they often inspire me for props or artwork and can take me in a whole new direction for creating. Anyway, thanks again and sweet nightmares!

autumnforest,
You totally had me engrossed in what was going to happen next in your dream, right up until you mentioned Lindsey Lohan, then I had to laugh a little.
It’s always strange how a dream can all of a sudden have something so out of place in it. Of course, when something out of place pops into a dream, that’s always a great opportunity to become lucid or even have an astral projection.
In my dream, I was trying to scale the fence of a cemetery at night when I noticed a man (but I sensed he was in spirit) walking around inside. I saw him walk towards a gate, and then exit the location via the gate and disappear. I quickly made my way to the gate, but found it was locked and it didn’t appear to have been opened in years. The cemetery was very Gothic-looking and quite deserted, as I was looking through the fence, I noticed a hole in the wall of a very creepy, but ornate mausoleum.
Inside the opening was the ghost of a child sort of bent over and peering out at me. As I was trying to make contact by communicating with the spirit, the scenery began looking more like something from “Nosferatu”–the sky and land darkened right before my eyes and though I was standing still, the mausoleum, along with the rest of the cemetery, started rushing towards me. The child’s voice grew louder and louder, but he or she ( I couldn’t quite tell if it was a boy or a girl) was speaking in a very thick, heavy foreign language. It was around this time that my alarm clock went off!
While the dream probably sounds innocent enough, it had a very dark and creepy feeling about it while it was unfolding. Though I’m not always in a cemetery, the recurring theme in these dreams is that I am always being rushed by different spirits.
Goldie,
I’m glad it inspired something within that you’d like to share, whether privately or in a public comment.
Fiend4Halloween,
Thank you for checking out this post and commenting. You’re absolutely right about how nightmares sometimes inspire creativity just as much as happy dreams do. In fact, I found this video many weeks ago, but hesitated posting it back then. However, thanks to the mood I was in yesterday (due to my dream) it “felt” right to post it this time. Weird, huh?
Pam, ssflipo13, and Ethan,
Thanks, you guys, for watching and for your feedback.

John, thank you so much for sharing such tremendous, amazing and incredible detail about your nightmare or should I say dream. It sounded SOOOOO much like one of your astral projections as well as your daily living life when you and your Mom can visit the cemeteries. The ethereal beings always appear to you as if they are a tangible human, yet as your head turns to follow where it is they have gone, they disappear leaving you feeling submerged with inquiry and the need to pursue their path. Reading about this dream left me with a feeling of consuming my imagination and had me visualizing what that would look like if you were able to put that in a video. After you woke from that dream did you just lay still for a bit…..sort of get your bearings around you and say, “WHOA….what a dream!!?”
As you know I dream nightly but I most always seem to be safeguarding humanity or trying to calm them down from some kind of adversity while I’m in spirit form above them letting them know that everything WILL be ok and to just relax. Such as the case with my dream of the Pacific Ocean swirling downward taking with it millions of humans, round and round and round. Meanwhile, I’m floating above them trying to calm their screaming and their apprehension while informing them this is part of the Universal process and it’s going to be ok; soon they will be on the other side experiencing absolute bliss in peace, love and joy. To this day it’s one of my more monumental dreams that I remember as though it just happened yesterday. Dreams seems to be getting more frequent lately and 100X more extraordinary and profound. Moreover, I’m reading this from more and more people to. “You know” my thoughts regarding this manner.
I really enjoyed your comment back John and in the future, if you see fit, I would absolutely cherish on many levels the chance to read about your dreams you had the night before. You write so graceful and elegantly that I feel as though I was right there in the dream with you so PLEASE consider sharing more in the future as a blog entry. I would adore such an experience! Thank you my Friend

Thanks, my friend. With my schedule continuing to intensify, I doubt I’ll be doing much writing throughout the summer and early fall, but after Halloween I may explore writing about subjects like my “paranormal” dreams.
I didn’t really have the reaction of ‘Whoa, what a dream’ this time because I’m sort of getting used to that ghostly theme, but I did say, “Whoa, my aching back, neck, shoulders, etc.”
Of course, that’s a morning occurrence whether I’m having weird dreams or not.
Thanks for sharing your dreams as well.
