And old dream, what does it mean?

Question

I had this dream a long time ago, and I always wondered what it meant.

I was a little kid(not when I dreamed it, but inside the dream), and I was in a white room. Suddenly, there was yelling. People were yelling at me, but I couldn't make out what they were saying, but it was hurting me. It was hurting my ears and somthing like my lungs or my heart. I covered my ears and the yelling would would make these black streaks, horizontally, across my eyes as I dreamt. The yelling would continue until I woke up, sweating.

The reason I ask what this means is because one time I went to a slumber party, and had this dream (it was very recurrent in my younger years, I haven't had it in a long time) and I woke up in the middle of the night, sweating. 2 ppl down, this girl Stephanie said she had a bad dream too.

Later in the day, we both by describing the dream realized we had both dreamt it. It was a reoccuring dream to her 2. The dreams didn't happen as often after that.

So, what does it mean?

Answer 1

One guess:

The white room is purity.  The people may be peer pressure.  Black streaks indicate anger.

It may be, instead, that the "spirit of the house" included simple, subconscious psychic hostility against the girls, and that this was felt by at least you and Stephanie.

Laboratory experiments demonstrate such "dream telepathy" effects are real.  I.e., dreamers will consistently dream specific, significant, statistically unusual symbols, projected toward them by an experimenter.
