What it Means When you Have a Dream of Murder
Dream Interpretation of Murder
Dreams are very hard to figure out exactly what they mean. Analyzing your dream of murder may not relate to actually committing the act of killing someone. Often it can be connected to a recent activity in your conscious days. If you are someone that really needs to have a meaning behind such a terrible dream then think about the last 48 hours of your life. Likely there will be a relationship between day activities and your dream of murder at night. What you can recall may have a special significance when trying to interpret your murder dream. More times than not, a dream of murder has something to do with unfinished business or unresolved problems in your regular day.
Nightmare Meaning of Murder
Another interesting finding around repeat murder dreams is when dreamers stop trying so hard to get a true meaning they go away on their own. Nightmares that contain a dream of murder can often serve as a release and you may wake up in a friendlier world, feeling somewhat relieved. If you or your mate toss in bed at night, sleeping terribly and dreaming of murder; a therapist can begin to investigate the murder of a patient’s dream for a more precise meaning. In the meantime here are some simple interpretations related to killing someone…
- KILLING: a) If someone is killed in your dream and you are a terrified witness to the crime, you will change your place of abode and be sorry for it. b) Dream of killing a person, whether purposely or by accident, is an omen that you will be criticized for having bad manners.
- MURDER: When you have committed the crime in a dream of murder it is bad luck, especially with younger people. The nature of this dreaming of murdering is symbolic of losing your temper towards people that have no moral values or scruples.
- GUN: If there is an injustice done to you or a family member it is foretold by the firing of a pistol, gun, shotgun or high caliber firing arm. When you hear the sound of a gunshot it is a sign of unrest.
- ANGER When you are angry in a dream it can mean good or bad things. It is good when the source of your anger is from unjust wrong doing. It is bad when the source is losing your temper. When you have a Dream of murder where you are physically striking and trying to harm someone it means you have been shamed through amour.
In our conscious life we understand that homicide is unlawful. Killing another human being is usually the result of arguments, drugs, robbery or crimes of passion. There are two kinds of murder as defined by the judicial system: murder 1 (in the first degree) and murder 2 (in the second degree). Does any of this relate to having a murder dream? Yes, in the sense of our conscious mind being aware of the unconscious mind and vice versa. When waking, the acknowledgement of that a dream of crime, homicide or murder are not acceptable in society become real.
When your dream is reoccurring it is a good plan to seek professional advice. When an affected patient brings a dream of murder to professionals it is taken seriously. Some patients honestly believe that they are going to commit this act. Rarely is that the case. Finding a symbolic meaning is often not what you think it is. HYPNOSIS Mental heath care professionals will often use hypnoses to recover memory movement. It is often the best way to find the underlying truth! When under hypnosis you may also find other psychological issues that are causing your dreams of murder. Unfortunately our subconscious mind crosses into our conscious world and vice versa. This is a human brain behavior that we have no control over in our sub-conscious thoughts. An example of undesirable dreams that are deep seeded, which relate to being a murderer, is an adult woman that was abused by her father as a child. She may have a dream of murder and castration of the abuser (her father). With the right medical care and analysis this frightening, reoccurring dream can be overcome.
Dream Murderer Meaning Summary
Maybe you have had to refrain from engaging in a heeded discussion during the day. In your deepest thoughts you may find that there are serious feelings of resentment towards an individual or situation. Possibly the person you are trying to inflict pain on is someone you see as a threat. It could also mean that your are trying to destroy a part of yourself for reasons only you can resolve.
I had a dream 4 months ago that I had invited my ex girlfriend over for a few beers and then I had decided to kill her for some reason. I dreamed I was chocking her and it was not working so I snapped her neck. Then went on to cover it up and hide her under floorboards in this house putting her inside a body bag of sorts. Then today I wake up from having a dream that connects with the one 4 months ago. I had went inside this house with two FBI agents and my father was there they were questioning her whereabouts. I kept telling them the same story over and over that I had not seen her. Then I walked over into the dinning room where I hid her and saw that the floorboards were shifting apart and could see the body underneath. I was worried the Feds were going to find out and my dad walked them out of the house as he was leaving. Then I proceeded to putting her in my trunk and got a shovel to hide the body. After all of that I woke up and was totally creeped out because in my dream I really liked doing what I did. Like it was an adrenaline rush inside my sleep. I feel like I am crazy when I have no intentions on ever killing anyone.
I had a dream of shooting someone in the back because he was going to kill my friends out of revenge. I shot him but he lived. Henever knew I shot him as I would come face to face with him in different scenes of my dreams. But I felt sorry or guilty about it and felt as if I loved him.
I have had multiple dreams of stabbing my boss to death. every time I see him the anger begins, have often had day dreams of running him down in the parking lot with my car.
There are only two solutions that I can think to do, 1) Find another job, and 2) Keep as much distance as I can. I’ve blocked him form my personal cell phone too. He’s a lazy disgusting man with no values.
I keep dreaming that I murder multiple people in one dream, I usually have no idea who these people are. Also in that same dream I was flying at some point, without wings above all my friends and family. Usually at the end of most dreams I end up at the same house, when I move closer to the loft hatch, I cannot speak or or move and after that I wake up.
I dreamt of hitchhiking with 4 other people, those who I only know 2. We go through a dangerous town and miss our bus. So walking down a country road, surrounded by tall trees, we are walking and along side the road is guard rails because without the rails, if gone offroad, you would fall nearly 100ft. Anyways, as we are walking, a girl comes up behind us with a loaded pistol and begins shooting at us. She shoots nobody and the clip is empty. I run up beside her and hit her along side the head and begin stomping her head into the road. Then I throw her over the rails and we all grab a water and a pencil or pen out of this plastic container with has came from nowhere. Then I wake up and I dont feel bad or anything about this dream. I thought it was interesting.

My friend had a dream lastnight that she was in the hospital with one of her twins and her husband came in and killed him. Whats that mean??
——————
That is a dream i read above.
This is how I interpret that:
To be in a hospital is a bad situation, could mean a crisis in your life. And to be in a hospital with your child could mean a family crisis, or something that would involve your life. Not a good moment. And to involve your husband in a dream could mean something about stability or finances. That you fear that if something happens to you, your savings wont save you and probably would kill you. Yeah, that could be wrong but just tried.
I don’t really believe in book of dreams. Sometimes I interpret my dreams and other peoples dreams and they’d say ‘omg, i think you are right’. coz sometimes, dreams tell only the emotional state of a person. Fears, dreams, frustration, anger, love etc.. Sometimes, with the power of mind to foretell, the mind can give you warnings of what will happen in the future. but that’s not common.
now, last night i dreamed of killing somebody, a faceless person. A guy perhaps and I feel connected to the guy. We have same built, same strength and i feel like i know him. I strangled the guy and i feel so angry I’d crush the poor guys face. But he’s fighting back and i can also feel the danger, of me getting killed. But the dream ended without telling who won.
How do you interpret this:
1. It is really important what you feel. If I feel connected to the guy, that could be something really personal. That could be my bad habit, or a thought, a feeling that i have. Something in you that you hate.
2. Angry, satisfaction, or happiness in killing somebody in your dreams doesn’t mean you are bad. You are not really killing a person in a dream. It is all but representation. If you kill a child, that means small, new, virgin, that could mean a childish behavior, or the immaturity that you have that you hate. Or probably that’s a guilt only, that you lost your innocence in real life, a virginity, or you felt the guilt that you are killing your young dreams.
3. If you kill your father in your dreams, and you had a fight with father before you sleep, that is only your anger translated in dreams to relax your body. In a way, dreams are natural way of relaxing our mind and body and soul.
4. But sometimes, it is not important if our dreams are bad or good, just like what happens in our daily lives, it is how we see or interpret it.
I cannot give you specific details but I blocked those services by an entry on my router. Every router should have a method of blocking domains. I selectively blocked individual computers from those services.
I have the same problem and I tried to remove it by those exact steps but the “remove” button does not work.
I’m having a dream.were I’m in a car with two other men I don’t know who they are but we are all frendly and we are driving through a nighboorhood in north Dallas and we roll past a house and there are two people.standin outside don’t know who they are either but I tell the driver to slow down grab a forty five and shoot one of them in the head the driver takes off and all I hear till I wake up is someone screamin cause they jus witnesses me murder who they were with I don’t know wat this dream means but it keeps accuring this is the third night in a row someone help its makin me lose sleep and driving me crazy
I just had a dream about murdering someone. I remember everything so clearly, to the fence being broken down; to the two guys faces that were in my windows tearing down my house from the outside. My brother was in the dream as well he saw me get shot and shoot back at a guy wearing black shades. He died instantly I shot him in the chest with a 12 gauge shot gun. But their was a turn to it I woke up at a lake and a guy that I met three days ago found me and I asked him “how did I get here?” He replied with “the guys that were after you” I had no idea to what he was referring to. Then I was in a mini van driving by a friend of mines and he asked if I was going to Miguel’s party me of how scared I was with a cop driving by I replied with “yes, I’ll be their for sure.” He tried replying but rite after the cops passed me I took off and woke up.
My name is Logan and this is going to be long but I will shorten it just because it has a lot of non-important details. Also, I am a terrible speller.
I was in a house by a lake with a pier, it is not my house, with some girls and then we hear a noise, I go to investigate and go into the attic and find an old rusty tricycle. After a while we conclude that the house is haunted. Then the front door starts rattling. When I look out it is my best friend, in real life, and he is parked on the front lawn. I let him in and we hang out and play in the water, then all of the sudden I am some random teenage kid sitting on the pier with my dream mother father and two younger sisters, about 6-8. My littler of the two sisters falls in the water on her tricycle and i dive in to save her but she is already dead. Then I am really calm and looking up through the water at my family. I smile at my other sister, not in the friendly way but in the really creepy way, I tell her to “come here” I grab her and drown her, then I drown my dream parents all the while smiling like a phsyco.
What does this mean cause this just happened less than an hour ago and I am afraid to go back to sleep. I am scared.
My friend had a dream lastnight that she was in the hospital with one of her twins and her husband came in and killed him. Whats that mean??
I had a dream last night, that I was home alone and I was hiding from
Someone. I couldn’t make out who the person was, but they were after
Me. I was running away from this person, while they were after me.
He had a knife. And then I was murdered. As soon as I died, I woke up.
and can find anything on being murdered in a dream.
But it was really strange.
This is a wonderful and creative blog post. How often do you update your site?
don’t over analyze it .
I had a dream i killed my little boy, and in my dream i was so sadden. So much so that i woke up with this pain…. What does this mean?
I often have violent and disturbing dreams and nightmares despite never having violent or disturbing thoughts in my waking life. Last night I had a dream that I was in a school. There were large groups of students in both classrooms by me. A friend and I left our classroom to walk around. When we returned to the classroom, there was a large pool of blood in the hallway, and all of the kids had been killed. The strangest part of the dream was that I had a feeling that I was already aware of what had happened before I had seen it, even though I wasn’t involved. I had a hard time going back to sleep after that because I was so disturbed by the dream.
I was very pleased to search out this internet-site.I wished to thanks in your time for this glorious read!! I definitely enjoying each little little bit of it and I’ve you bookmarked to take a look at new stuff you weblog post.
My brother suggested I may possibly like this web site. He was fully most suitable. This submit literally created my day. You can not think about just simply how much time I had invested for this info! Thanks!
I am really loving the theme/design of your site. Do you ever run into any web browser compatibility problems? A number of my blog readers have complained about my website not working correctly in Explorer but looks great in Chrome. Do you have any ideas to help fix this issue?
i had a dream last night that i was messing around with my partner and we was playing with a gun and then i shot it by accident and it hit a lad i know that has been sent down for shooting someone. it was really wierd please can you let me know what you think? thanks
A Very good site, but it still does not answer my dream. I know for a fact that I have VERY complex dreams at times and I have to research so many different types of dream in order to even get close to discerning it.
My recent dream was in two separate parts but overall had the same theme–being chased. I know the significance behind that though since in both parts I am trying to be murdered, but here is the bit I need help answering:
In the first part of my dream I am being chased by a whole group of about six people, five are unrecognisable whereas one I remember very vividly. One of the people chasing me was Lucius Malfoy from the Harry Potter films, not the actor but the actual CHARACTER. Why is this?
In this part of my dream I am running all over my street and town trying to lose the group and avoid being spotted by them because they are trying to kill me. I distinctly remember Lucius’ long blonde hair and his face when I was sprinting down the street and he suddenly came out of a car by the side of the road along with the other shadowy five. Another thing that should be noted is that in my dream I am being chased when it is late at night when it is extremely dark.
Does someone have an answer for me? Why was Lucius Malfoy in my dream trying to get to me and (what I gather) kill me?
The second part is even more relevant to murder. At first I am trying to hide in a forest and I see a car come down the road, I see that there are two people with guns and I run. I am being chased through a forest by only one of the men who is calmly following me and aiming. Sometimes I am looking through my own eyes and fleeing in fear and sometimes I am looking through his perspective and seeing a red dot trailing up my back. Seeing this red dot trailing up my back as I run causes even more fear even though I logically should not be able to see it. But I am looking through his eyes, so I don’t have a choice.
He shoots several times and misses where by what I can see of the red dot he should have hit me no problem.
Suddenly the forest dissappears and I am running down a very strange street in the dead of night with this man still pursueing me, he is much further behind me this time but I am still running for my life. What freaked me out when I woke up though was what happened next:
I was running down this same dim litted street and suddenly I see two children walking calmly towards me–they are unrecognisable to me–one is a girl and the other is boy. I am screaming ‘please help me, somebody help me!’ and I see the children pause with concerned looks and start running passed me towards the man (They look around 6/7 years old.) I do not see them since I am still running without looking back in terror…but I hear each individual gunshot and their screams.
Three more children run passed me and the same thing recurs. I feel a tiny sense of guilt, but I realise that their deaths have slowed him down.
I come to two large white gates with a gap between them which I desperately climb, deep in my heart feeling absolute fear since if he caught up he would be able to shoot me while I was climbing. I sprint across the tiny gap and climb the second gate without looking back.
I run around the brick wall corner and I realise I am at a dead-end, but I can not hear the other following. Using this small amount of time I whistle the ‘Song of Time’ from the Zelda game Majora’s Mask and suddenly I feel relief at finally being able to do it since that is what I have been wanting to do the entire time, but the man had not given me the chance. Going back in time was my evasive move and it saved me, the thought occuring in my mind to avoid going to the forest to escape the murderer.
Everything went white after that thought singalling that I was going back in time…and I calmly woke up…
I always remember my dreams thoroughly, which my friends say is a talent since they never remember theirs at all. They say you only remember dreams if you wake up during the REM state…but I remember it even if I wake up normally.
So, after that extremely long comment, does anyone have an answer for me to the muitple themes including the murders in my two-part dream?
I am a psychology major in college and I have to say you have some pretty amazing and vivid dreams, but besides that point you ONLY dream when you are in REM state. There is the REM state and then the NREM state which has 5 stages. None of which involve dreaming, although they do involve sleep-walking and sleep-talking. During those 5 stages your brain is healing and regrowing. I know everyone wants to think that there dreams mean something, but I am sorry to say I believe, along with many other scientists out there, that dreams have no meaning. They are episodic scenes that you have experienced or seen on TV or in real life all meshed together. If you do some research on this, I’m sure you will come to the same conclusion. I hope this helps and I hope this can give you some solace after the fact. Hope I didn’t offend anyone.
No offence taken at all and some very interesting facts. So you’re saying dreams originate in your conscious state then get reprocessed in your subconscious state when you sleep.
I beg to differ. I’ve had dreams involving myself and either a family member or close friend and have often at times tried to interpret or turn around the dream itself. So I’m always involved in a dream be it with a family member or a friend. The dream is always so surreal,it’s almost like my soul has left my body and everything that is happening in my dream I can feel as if I am there at that exact moment in real life. The moment I interpret and turn my dream around is the moment something happens in real life and the dream plays out in real life and is the opposite of what I have dreamt. I often dream of total strangers. I witness someone get murdered by mob justice and before I can tell anyone about it the next day I read it in the news papers. The scene, the way it plays out is exactly like in my dream,it’s almost like I was so suppose to be there to witness it. So Mr.Scientist I reeaally beg to differ. Maybe it’s something that’s supposed to be too complex for your kind of people if you know what I mean. No offense!
Thank you. I think, I have to stop watching TV [films of murders]
My this reply is in a wrong place and I am sorry, I can’t erase it!
You regurgitated what a textbook said. You shared a fact you remembered and then claimed that if we all just look hard enough, we’ll see the truth. My dear…. I’ve been getting vivid and lucid dreams my whole life. They all have revealed something about living and growing. I went to college. Got a masters degree too. And a phd. What you hear in school is not all its cracked up to be. You should think for yourself and not just parrot facts in textbooks to random people online. Have you ever had an experience with lucid dreaming? Do you believe there are only 3 dimensions? Google around about recent quantum physics breakthroughs if you want to learn something really interesting. I will close by saying it is encouraging that a member of your generation seems to be paying attention in class rather than playing candy crush or swiping on tinder until your fingers bleed.
Great post about this. Im surprised to see someone so educated in the matter.
I had a dream I ran over a small child with my car.
Me too!! I’ve had this dream twice! Once I was driving an 18 Wheeler and it was a boy, the second time I was in our car and it was a girl.
Same. A dream interpretor revealed to me part of the meaning. The small child is yourself.
I had a dream yesterday where I was involved in a murder, however I was not myself. In fact, I knew none of the people, locations, or moment of time in which it took place.
Very vivid dream. Didn’t see murder happen, just the aftermath and burying the bodies. Four people, including myself were involved and the murder weapon was hidden in the home I lived in. Which I realized was a mobile home in my dream.
Believe me, I wrote as many details down about the dream as soon as I woke up. One of the things I remember the most, is looking down at the victim and seeing her face. It’s burned into my memory.
Here’s another weird fact. I dreamed about a murder two weeks ago, but can’t remember the details. However, I can feel the two dreams are connected.
I talked with a dream interpreter, who didn’t have many answers except to see if I can find more details if the dream happens again, i.e. look at license plates, name tags, any type of cue to the location.
Call me crazy, but I just want to figure out who the victim is because I keep seeing her face. Perhaps a dream from the dead?
I will note, I was very sleepy and in a bad mood just before I passed out. I work a graveyard shift, so I’m off at 9am. I typically sleep 8 hours a day, but split up. four hours down… four hours up, and then four hours down again.
Any thoughts?
I have the same one, recurring, and I feel like I’m on the verge of being caught and found out and then I wake up. The victim is a young girl and a man, and someone how a ring is discussed in terms of it missing and being a clue.
No way. This is the exact dream that I’ve been searching for info on. You guys have me really freaked out. The only difference is that the victim in my dream was murdered by my husband and I and I don’t ever remember dreaming of the actual murder just burying under my new property. My husband and I very calm like when the cops come around but then the second they start asking about the object/most of the time a ring. We both kind of maybe get nervous but the dream just ends and I’m awake.
Mine was
I seem like a normal day i remembered my mom driving to the schooI and dropping me off later on that day i was sitting on the outer grass part of the track at school until the last person started to make my way a barwair cut off her leg when she jumped ….I was so shock that I stayed there not believing what I saw….it felt like 2 days later I was in my apartments on the field and I felt a weird vibe still so I went inside …I was laying on my bedroom floor and was about to go to bed, I heard a lot of laughing outside and it was kind of suspicious… I looked out the window to find 3 teenagers sneffing crack and they had 2 guns ,pistols, I ran to my mother telling her what I saw and to stay hidden from the windows…they began to shoot through the windows and I got very scared
.. telling my mom to be quite I see my brothers room door closed …and blood spelling under his door. The eyes of the 3rd person in that car before this happened made eye contact with me and I can still see the evil of what he was planning …. afterward I still can’t believe I dreamed this and still shocked

I had mine last night. I’ve been pissed with a cheerleader who’s making stories about me and telling it to the whole football team and to her fellow cheerleaders. I lost my temper and grabbed her in her cheerleader uniform, lifted her with just one hand and dropped her from a high,circular staircase. it doesn’t feel bad at all until I woke up. It really made my day so sad and depressing. I feel bad because from my dream, it’s like it was so real then i never felt guiltness after dropping her off the staircase, rather, i felt relieved. it was so-not-me. can anybody tell me what’s the interpretation of my dream?

I also had a dream about killing my mom dad and my little brother …..but at the end I punished by a police what does that mean ?
Ive had a dream about my dad murdering everyone in my house while I was on the phone with my crush.. He heard and saw everything
I almost had the same dream just now. I dreamt about my dad. He was trying to take me to the airport because I’m going to be an exchange student to Korea. It was a night time. But then the atmosphere changed when my mom and two younger siblings appeared in the picture and we are sad. Our dad is giving instructions of how i will kill him. And I did while my mom and two younger siblings are watching and hearing his bones crack. Because he wanted to be killed by a washing machine inside it. So what happened was he went inside and i started to turn it on and he is being grounded. While holding the host where his grounded body goes out, I am crying so bad. I really am that after waking up my heart aches really bad. But before waking up, I tried to talk with my mom, asking why my dad wants to die when we already thought of a solution to our problem and my mom was trying to brush it off which makes me feel so irritated and angry. But, I can see that my mom is also feeling sad and hurt that she’s just trying to be strong. At this time, I was still crying.
I just had a similar dream, I was stabbed in the chest but was able to take the knife out and use it to slit my attackers throat, acting crazy and tasting his blood to mock him as he died, then swat shows up and raids my house. I end up on jail in a holding cell waiting for my lawyer. Then I wake up sweating.
I had a dream about killing someone who was trying to kill my family and last night I had a dream about knocking the person Down with a car to save my dad and I ….. what does that mean
