    I'm a sleep walker/talker (active sleeper they call it) and one of the favorite stories my family likes to tell is of a time when I slept over my grandparents house and was in the bed with them (I was very young) and they woke up to me screaming "Help Help! I caught a Pelican!" and apparently I was on my knees at the foot of the bed, leaning out over the drop off point of it waving my upper body around franticly while miming holding on to a bird's feet that was trying to fly me over the edge. I vaguely remember a dream of a bird pulling me toward a cliff and yelling for help as I grabbed a hold of the feet that were holding me so it couldn't drop me... I was maybe 5-6 at the time and I'm in my mid 40s now but that doesn't stop my family from teasing me about it STILL! 😭🤣

    FYI: In 1974 Jack Kirby create a new comic book named after main character called the Sandman, whose costume is the one Jed is wearing. Jed was also a newly created supporting cast member of that comic. That version was the 2nd DC superhero character with the name Sandman (Garrett Sandford), the first being Wesley Dodds from the 1940's. Sandford's adventures, with the help of 2 assistants, involved him going into peoples dream to save them from evil forces, which is what Jed thinks he's doing. Even his headquarters are like Sanford's. This comic was short-lived. About 15 years later a new writer used Hector, the son of Hawkman and Hawkgirl who had been a Superhero before, to replace the 1970's Sandman and take over his role. Gaiman took these backstories and incorporated them into his comics. Here in the show they are not used the super-hero backstory so the characters have slightly different roles.

    I love the idea that nightmares serve to help you process unpleasant things while asleep. Dreams are such an interesting and personal topic. You asked … And it’s fun to take a minute to think about it. When I was a kid there was a period during which I had vivid flying dreams every night. They were super cool. I also had frequent déjà vu during the day as a kid, which was also very entertaining. They very slowly became less frequent until I became a young adult. I would briefly slip in and out of the sort of waking dreams in which I am doing random things or being in random places from the recent past. In my mid-40, the déjà vu came back, and turned out to be A component of pre-seizure auras. After I was diagnosed with epilepsy and medications got my seizures under control I didn’t have any déjà vu anymore, which was kind of a disappointment. These days I dream, or remember my dreams, rarely. When I do they are A lot like my prior déjà vu dreams, like a string of vignettes, each an amusing combination of seemingly random things from Real Life combined in one scene. I don’t know, maybe some of this story is interesting to some other people.

His greatest fault is his intense sense of duty and responsibility, disregarding any morals or emotions. His decisions as a god and immortal being are very different from our mortal perspectives.

    The sleeping sickness is based on a real pandemic of Encephalitis lethargica that happened roughly between 1915-1930. It affected 5 million people, 1.6 million of which died from it, and those that recovered rarely recovered fully. About 1 in 5,000 people live to be 100, so out of 5 mil that would be 1000, minus the 1.6 mil that died is roughly 700, because people rarely recovered fully lets be generous and say maybe 100 could have lived to 100, anyone who caught it prior to 1922 or was older than 8 years old has probably died of old age by now even if they did live to a hundred. I think there being 0-3 survivors alive today is about right. I don't think the show planned for this, but about now isn't a bad guess for the sole survivor of that pandemic being alive.

    This episode is excellent and it's a slight departure from the graphic novel. Jed being Sandman is fun. In the comics The Sandman superhero look was created by Jack Kirby and his name was Hector. He was helping Jed in his dreams alongside his wife, Lyta who ran the monitor board. It's interesting what they're doing with Lyta and Hector here. Corinthian's teeth for eye is pretty creepy. The tenants dreams are pretty fun and Martin Tenbones is great.

    You were wondering about the dead husband dreams... 2 years ago I lost my wife of 20 years to a long illness. The dreams came a lot at first, but are now maybe once or twice a month. They are always a variation on realizing "she walks into the room, there was a mistake, she's still here, everything's ok".... then I wake up. There's a melancholy reliving of her loss each time. I never go back to sleep that night if I have that dream, even if it's 2am, I'm afraid it will continue just for me to wake up again.

    My bf had sleepingwalking issues when we moved into a new apartment (they went away, it was a reaction to an unfamiliar environment). One night, he walked out while I was asleep, crossed the hall, and entered the apartment of people who had just moved in and were having a mellow post move gathering with wine. He was butt naked...they screamed when the chubby naked asian stranger walked into their living room. He panicked, still asleep, and fled to the bedroom, screaming my name and yelling "There are people in our apartment!!" It was when he entered the bedroom and found it decorated differently and without me in the bed...that he woke up, and promptly fled the building, leading the stunned witnesses on a chase as they tried to capture evidence with their cellphones. Its after midnight, Im dead asleep, and I'm woken by a panicked shove and pleas for help. He says he sleptwalked, I mumble its just a dream, come back to bed, and he says no...i woke up and people chased me. We left an apology note to all the residents and started locking the doors and blocking them with chairs each night until we were sure it wasn't likely to happen again. THAT is my weird sleep tale. As for me, years ago...I once got slapped awake for mumbling an ex lovers name in my sleep...in the dream they were in trouble, and were calling out to me, but I couldnt reach them or help them. I remember calling their name, wanting to let them know I was trying...and then POW!...I was awake...and my now-ex lover was PISSED!

    The craziest dream I ever had felt like something from Alice in Wonderland.
    I dreamt I was at my grandparents house and just goofing around when I found 3 doors that had not been there before. The first door lead to the garden, where a squirrel yelled at me for being close to his nest.
    The second door lead me to the forest nearby where the trees were gigantic.
    The final door took longer to get through. The corridors were unlit, so I could not see anything, I just kept my hand on the wall and walked until I reached a new door. This one lead me to a small island in the middle of a stormy ocean. The waves were steel gray with foam on the tops. The island was covered in peat and marshland, and the colours were orange, yellow and red. I walked around for a bit, but the island was not big, and so soon I had seen everything. But I realized there was no way back! So I started crying. But then I heard a bell, and then I saw 3 wild sheep walking towards me. The oldest, a ram, had a bell around his neck. The other two was a mother sheep and her lamb. They stopped and looked at me, then turned around as if they wanted me to follow them. And so I did, and they lead me over a bridge and to a door I had not seen previously. The door lead me back to my grandparents house

    I've got some crazy dream stuff for you! I had night terrors as a toddler. Would wake my parents from my screaming...they'd run into my room and I'd be sitting upright screaming and crying with a terrorized, glassy look in my eyes. I was not truly awake but appeared to be. Understandably, it terrified my parents.
    As an older kid, I had recurring nightmares that felt incredibly real. In the dreams, I would be going about my daily routine stuff with my family, but something would draw my attention away and I'd leave the room. Now, hang with me on this and remember this was when I was around 6-9 years old (it would recur multiple times per month over those years, with various scenarios but the same result). After leaving the room in my dreams, two guys would jump out (one tall and skinny; one short and fat), grab me, and shove me in an old trunk, like the ones people used for travelling in the old days. Then these jerks would tickle me (again, remember I was a kid) and I would jolt awake in bed...WITH ACTUAL GOOSEBUMPS LIKE I'D JUST BEEN TICKLED! It was horrifying! It felt so completely real that I had serious trouble getting to sleep because I knew I would fall into that dream again. It got to the point where I was becoming lucid during the dreams and knew I needed to stay with my family and not leave them but I'd be compelled to anyhow and would know the dudes were coming. I would be "telling" myself to wake up in the dream but just couldn't and it had to play out each time.
    Sooo, that's my crazy dream stuff. I also apparently sleep walk, especially during my teenage years. I'd go out and have full conversations, make snacks, and change my pajamas without any recollection at all. It was clear to my family that I wasn't totally awake and we sure have some interesting stories from those nights.

    You want crazy dream stories? I often have lucid dreams, meaning I realise I'm in a dream while dreaming, and one of three things happens. One: I wake up as soon as I realise I'm dreaming, and the way the world transitions from dream to reality is wacky. Imagine starting a fire in the middle of a piece of paper and it burning outward. That is what happens, holes emerge and expand like Doctor Strange portals, dissolving my dream world, and through the holes I see the real world because my real eyes are open. It lasts about 3 seconds, and for those 3 seconds I'm still in my dream body, in my dream world, but through the holes I can see what my real body sees, and it is such a crazy experience. Two: My brain tricks me into thinking I woke up. Number one happens, but instead of waking into the real world, I wake into another dream. This used to work really well and I'd never realise I'm still dreaming and go back to sleep, but because it has happened so many times I've got wise to it, and about 50% of the time I instantly realise I'm still dreaming and wake up just like number one. Three: This is the rarest and most crazy. I realise I'm dreaming and don't wake up. When this happens I can feel my body in the real world and it is bizarre, like having two bodies at once. I can move my real body in this state, but only just, it feels like its in 10x gravity and takes an enormous amount of effort just to move my arms slightly. I hate being stuck in the dream world so I usually wake myself by using my real arms to slap myself, pinch myself, or open eyelids. Before I worked out how to control my real body, I used to try and kill myself in the dream to wake me up. This is the creepiest thing that happened: I was killing myself over and over again, respawning somewhere new every time I "died," eventually I respawned into a magical glass elevator 150ft above a field at night, and I could see below me that in this field was a single figure. The elevator slowly descended, and when it reached the bottom I approached the figure. It was wearing a black robe obscuring its face, It looked exactly like a Nazgul from Lord of the Rings, and it had a book in its hands that it was offering to me, that seemed to be a register for death, you sign your name in the book and you die. This made me think I was dead for real, and the moment I accepted my death and decided to take the book, I woke up. And even waking up was crazy, because for a split second, it felt like I was struck by lightning and I could feel everything around my real body. The wall beside me, the bed beneath me, the closet in the corner, the door in front of me, ect. I'm an atheist and I don't believe in psychics or ghosts or anything like that, but to this day that experience is a lingering doubt in my mind, and probably will be until the day I die.

Maiden name *Hippolyta* Trevor... _Diana_ and Steve Trevor's daughter. Well, that's comics stuff anyway, dunno bout the show change, but considering they cast a mixed-middle eastern actress...

    My best/worst dream: I live a life of despair and ruin and I wake up from that awful dream and get to be with my wife and 5 children. She asks me about my dream and I tell her it was horrible because my family didn't exist there. But here in the real world, I have become a successful writer (finally) and have been a teacher for 10 years. We finally have enough money to build the house of our dreams and are getting ready to move into it. I know each of my children and their names and everything about them and they are wonderful.
    THEN -- I really wake up and that dream of a life of despair and ruin is the REAL world. I am alone in my bed and I weep like I have never wept before.

    The idea was that an amateur took over for the master. Dream would never let the rats in - unless it was a deserved nightmare. Just imagine how horrible it would be if you were having a great, impowering dream, and then you were killed by lowly vermin. Dream understands what he does intrinsically, and he knows how easy it is for others to f**k it up. Doesn't mean he won't adapt in some ways, but The Dreaming is sacred, holy, untouchable by others. It's His realm -- all others need not apply.

    I once dreamt that I was in a hospital, my legs up in stirrups and a big pregnant belly. The doctor said "push !" which I did, then gave birth to two fully grown Labradors (one white, one black) who ran excitedly around the bed, then jumped up and licked my face. "MY BABIES, MY BABIES !" I cried, tears rolling down my face.
    I then awoke to a feeling of supreme loss, because my babies were not there.
