Dream Journal
Two young girls were lost. They wandered around holding hands in the dark for a long time when a woman asked if she could help them. They declined the woman’s help and said that they would be fine.
The two girls weaved their way between cars in a parking lot. A man drove up in a white van and rolled down his window. He leaned out and asked if they needed a ride. The girls looked at each other and, knowing the man in the van was their kidnapper, accepted a ride from him.
At home, the two girls were in the backyard pool with their father, uncle, and grandfather. The men were very happy to have the girls home and sent them to bed. The men stayed in the pool discussing the girls’ return and the lantern they had brought back with them.
The dad wanted to throw the lantern away, the grandfather wanted to open it, and the uncle was sure there was some sinister powder inside and it shouldn’t be opened.
They argued for a while and didn’t notice another man, dressed in a nice suit, walk into the pool. He grabbed the floating lamp, turned it on, and tossed it to the other end of the pool. He was electrocuted.
