Does this guy look familiar?

HISTORY

In January 2006 in New York, the patient of a well-known psychiatrist draws the face of a man that has been repeatedly appearing in her dreams. In more than one occasion that man has given her advice on her private life. The woman swears she has never met the man in her life.

That portrait lies forgotten on the psychiatrist's desk for a few days until one day another patient recognizes that face and says that the man has often visited him in his dreams. He also claims he has never seen that man in his waking life.

The psychiatrist decides to send the portrait to some of his colleagues that have patients with recurrent dreams. Within a few months, four patients recognize the man as a frequent presence in their own dreams. All the patients refer to him as THIS MAN.

From January 2006 until today, at least 2000 people have claimed they have seen this man in their dreams, in many cities all over the world: Los Angeles, Berlin, Sao Paulo, Tehran, Beijing, Rome, Barcelona, Stockholm, Paris, New Dehli, Moskow etc.

At the moment there is no ascertained relation or common trait among the people that have dreamed of seeing this man. Moreover, no living man has ever been recognized as resembling the man of the portrait by the people who have seen this man in their dreams.

The aim of this website is:
- to help those who have seen this man in their dreams and to foster communication among them;
- to understand who this man is and why he appears in an apparently pattern-less array of situations in the dreams of such diverse human subjects.

I've never seen him, by the way.

Just wondering what you think.

Seeing what the younger (including me) population have seen.

Re: Does this guy look familiar?

Creepy, but no, here is how my dreams go, because they are really freaky.

I see a vision, a blurry one, usually well lit. It is a scene I am going to see in the future, either the next day, or the next year. It's strange because when I see the scene from my dream, I get a strange sense in my body, I see another vision. Is there something wrong with me?

No, lot's of people get that feeling.  I think you either mean Deja Vu or a futuristic vision.  Sometimes it's just a dream.  Sometimes.

Also, I get a tingle. I get a flashback of when I dreamed the vision, it's like deja vu

Nope, futuristic vision, definitely. The longest I've had to wait for one dream to occur is 3 years, but it still happened. Most take just a few weeks to occur. When the image happens in my life, that's when the deja vu happens...

Really?  For me it's just the opposite.  Except when I get killed in my dreams.  Which happens a lot, actually, but it usually isn't so bad.

Re: Does this guy look familiar?

Is it normal to wake up screaming in the middle of the night because you had a dream in witch you are in a perfectly normal happy place, but then you start rapidly and uncontrollably being pulled towards a tiny, but enormous, close, but distant, black "tear" in the physical world and into a horrifying place that is both infinitely small, and infinitely large. Infinitely close, and infinitely distant?

It happens to me if I go to bed late at night, a day before a rainstorm.
