Havnt been this spooked by a dream in years. I was having a fairly normal dream and then was woken very suddenly by loud noise and what I think was fire in my dream after barely 90mins sleep.

Actually felt really spooked and had to check house, any ideas?

Could it have been exploding head syndrome?

it could be your mind telling you something was up that was not normal was there any crimes that had happened in you neighborhood that night?
