The Town in the Woods (night of 28/09/2014)

I was back in Kinloss trying to get to the wood that I could see from Southside. It was really a small collection of trees by the train track, but they used to fascinate me, and we believed they were haunted.

In the dream I was approaching the woods along a pavementless road. Farmers fields. Grey sky. I noticed there was some farm buildings. As we got to the woods themselves, I realized that the interior of the woods contained something approximating a small town. I was with Charlotte in my dream - and possible someone else as well. I was not sure that we were allowed to be in this town. Nonetheless, I was still eager to see the street lights come on in Southside, and hoped to get to the edge of the town / woods, and watch them that way. I couldn't get to the edge of the woods, as the town seemed to get larger. The town, though large also had a cosy comfortable feel to it - this was what a town would be like if it really could exist inside a small group of trees. There was also a curiously empty feel to the town - abandoned, though not sinister as abandoned places often are. We found ourselves in a hospital that seemed both deserted and used (men in beds looking at us). In another building on the ground floor, Charlotte had dressed herself up in a goth- like way. I told her that she looked beautiful, She laughed cruelly at this. She was sitting on a sofa in a dark basement like room.
