Hi all,
I had a dream last night that left me feeling a little more shaken than usual and I feel sharing it and perhaps reading others perspectives, explanations or interpretations may help me out with it.
I think some of it may have been partially 'inspired' by an article I was reading on SOTT last night, so I'll add it for context, which was : http://www.sott.net/article/280444-Nick-Redfern-on-Close-Encounters-of-the-Fatal-Kind - specifically this part :
Okay, so the 'first' part of the sequence I recall, I was playing tennis in a park, this park resembled the one in the town where I grew up which has some fenced in tennis courts. I was not playing well, and I didn't recognise the person I was playing with - other people who were also playing in the courts joined the game I was playing, the teams progressed from 1v1, to 2v2, then 2v4 with the 4 on my team and I recall thinking that seemed unfair although the 2 were the stronger team and were winning.
Then there was a shimmering haze to the left of the court, and a UFO shaped like a 'flying saucer' coalesced - I remember thinking "wow this is the first UFO I have ever seen" - I remember a woman on 'my' tennis team acknowledged seeing it too. Three humanoid aliens appeared and began killing people and, I suppose, harvesting body parts - however I think I was the only one who seemed conscious of what was happening. I looked at these aliens and said something like "I see you, I know you're there, and no you can't take me"; and so they left me, somewhat smugly I think, and said (again as best I can remember) "Ok, we'll leave you, but if you tell anyone about us then we will come and kill you." I remember thinking that no one would have believed me anyway.
So I left the park and returned 'home' - which was to my parents house where I grew up. Then I was in the upstairs front bedroom which belongs to my parents, and looking out of the window with my husband stood next to me. As if it was spying on me to make sure I didn't reveal what had happened, the UFO appeared outside of the window. I could tell my husband was looking out of the window, but I was trying to think of a way to 'show' him without telling him anything, so asked him if he could see 'that too'? He said yes - and I felt that the aliens laughed at me, and I knew they were going to kill me then, which a part of me felt calm yet sad about - so I said to my husband "Sorry, but now they are going to take me and kill me." - and the part about the dream which shook me up a bit, was his response which was "ah, I'm just going to go to the bathroom then." - and he left the room as if he just didn't care, and it was 'business as usual' and it wasn't his problem, or even a problem at all.
I wonder if it's my subconscious trying to get me to realise that he doesn't really care, or whether it's just brain sorting and playing on my insecurities and it's 'just a dream' that doesn't mean anything, as my husband or therapist would say.
I can never tell which dreams may hold more significant meaning - I have often thought it was the ones that clung more heavily to my memory and had strong feelings associated with them.

ANSWER: One of the most graphically nightmarish accounts that falls into the human mutilation category came from the late Leonard Stringfield. Stringfield's source for the story was a high-ranking military officer who described a shocking event that reportedly occurred in Cambodia during the Vietnam War. It was in April 1972 when a violent and grisly confrontation with a group of extraterrestrials that can best, and accurately, be called cosmic butchers took place. They were confronted loading human body-parts into huge bins. There are many more such reports on file.
