I dreamed I saw a bed cover full of maggots I couldn’t believe it, I kept saying let’s get that off the bed and go buy some new cover at Walmarts. I really didn’t understand I was afraid! Thank you
Mine was- I was at an old neighbors house and kept cleaning for them-they were infested. I started vacuuming and moving stuff and made the area was perfectly clean, then when I went back, there were more. I couldn’t keep up with it. I knew I had to leave. There was no getting control of the situation -with the vacuum anyways . we couldnt find the source of where they’re coming from and I said maybe to bleach the place. I kept gagging and spitting because I was so grossed out. I just wanted out.
I have a dream that I was looking at the mirror in my hotel room and my scalp had turned thick and yellow. There were like little holes that kind of looked like bad pimples, slightly red at the opening and when squeezed, instead of popping a pimple yellow maggots would come out. It was extremely scaring
I dreamt it was raining maggots on me and my family
I dreamt that I popped a pimple on my lip and a long ingrown hair came out of it followed by pus and maggots. I tried standing up from the bed to clean it off and there were so many tiny ants on my bed. It freaked me out so much and whenever I think of it I get goosebumps.
Ok so my dream was terrifying that I shit when I woke up. I was day out when I eating cereal in a small cup in the kitchen. Soon after, my mother and grandma come in with groceries and they both begin to talk in a quite tone but I could hear them. And they were talking about throwing away the old food because there could be maggots in them. So when they were talking about what food to throw out, I grabbed my cup a threw it in the sink because I wanted to check if I was eating bad food like maggots. And when I look at the bottom of the cup my cup now had little holes like a drain. However the holes were stuck with small white maggots. And a few seconds late I could feel something crawling in a spiral on my body. When I look at my arm, I could see like proabably four maggots crawling in my veins. there were some getting stuck and a bug one that just kept moving up my arm slowly but when I would look again it would be higher and higher than before. I overestimated my arm with my sleeve and try to stop the maggots by placing my fingers in their path but nothing. I was then feeling pain and light headed, and I still didn’t tell anyone. I went to boil water but I could feel my arm anymore. I then told my mom I’m in pain and she stood there without saying anything. I told her I can’t take it anymore I’m going to the hospital. She looked at me and said what?. I poked at the foor with my hair in my face and YELLED, I’m going to the f***ing HOSPITAL. and she said why and she said omg don’t tell me I think I know. She then Sprinted out the door I think it was to turn on the car because last time I was sick she did the same. And before I could run behind her and meet her in the car I passed out looking at my purple swollen arm, with veins that were popping out and maggots that could be seen in shapes of ovals. That’s the end of the nightmare. Could someone help me interrupt this.

There were black tentacles coming out of the ground. Small, about 6 inches tall, in an area about the size of a frisbee. I reached in and they didn’t feel slimy like I thought they would, but STICKY. Like sap. Once I reached in and pulled a handful out, I saw maggots all over the tentacles. I flung my hand, hard, and they splattered onto a different spot in the floor. They moved and waved in the exact same way as the ones in the original spot. I felt that it was spreading, I remember that thought distinctively in the dream. Then it was over. It was horrifying.
I had a dream that there were large maggots burrowed in my skin. On the tops of my hands and feet. They really hurt. And it was hard to get them out like bot fly larva. I also had alot of tiny maggots in my breasts and they were coming out of my nipples but they didn’t hurt as apposed to the larger ones. Now that I think about it the big ones looked more like coconut grubs with their weird heads but the longer body of one of those worms you find in those tequila flavored lollipops. I don’t know if that counts as a maggot. But anyways I remember feeling very iritated in my dream about them being there and someone put ointment ontop of the holes in my hands and feet and wrapped my hands in blue fabric to smother them. As for the smaller ones in my breasts I literally turned them inside out one at a time like those weird half circle popper toys and dumped them out
It was very weird…. I’m not entirely sure what it means though.
