kimurhoGrowing up, the accepted wisdom among my peers was that if you died in your dream, you would die in your sleep without waking.
To the best of my knowledge, I have twice died in a dream, each time my ghost rose up; once to investigate my murder and the second time to prevent my husband from being murdered.
This morning, I began the dream as a ghost, investigating a corrupt businessman whom I *think* had murdered me. There was an elderly lady helping me. She snuck into the businessman's office and obtained some crucial evidence, but he came in unexpectedly and she didn't hide all that well. She ran for it, he tried to take off after her, but I delayed him with some poltergeist activity.
When I caught her up, I found her lifeless body lying on the ground. Heart gave out. Her spirit was nearby, in conversation with another ghost - one dressed like a salewoman at the department store we were in. She'd been dead for a while and had some tricks to appearing to be alive which she taught us. One of them enabled the older woman (she looked about 20 years younger, btw) to pick up her pink purse with the evidence in it. We still had to get that evidence away from the businessman. The plan was to lock it up in her car which we hoped would be investigated when her body was found.
We ended up in the lingerie department, pretending to be alive and trying different things. He went right by us without even looking ... probably because the saleswoman tried to get his opinion on something. (The older lady and I were turned away because he might have recognized us.)
