I wake up, need to pee. I have to go through the living room. I do so, The front door opens, the gate is still locked, but there's a figure standing there, hazy and indistinct, the edges blurry, like ink bleeding on paper, and continually shifting. I can hear it call out to me in my mind. It's asking me to open the gates and let it in. It sounds strangely familiar, like someone I know intimately, but by 5 I was pretty sure who the people I knew were... And this guy... So I just froze there, and even then, I can't remember clearly what happened. I think after some time, with me just standing there and unable to react properly, it just floated away, the front door closing again on its own accord. I think it had to be invited in...

That's pretty crazy. I love stories like that. I've had dreams that freaked me out when I was about that age that I wasn't sure about for a while. Like one where I saw something that scared me (something stupid, like a flying fork) and my parents came in but they were different people. I knew it was still them, but they looked completely different. It all had a very real feel to it, and it haunted me for a long time after that.
