Creepy Dream

What are your dreams typically like?  Do you have recurring dreams?  Have you ever flown in your dreams?  Been chased?  Been attacked by bugs?  I have had all these types of dreams, and more.  My most recent memorable dream left me shaken and on edge.  It was just last night, or this morning, more like:

I was at my grandma's house in Grand Marais.  It was raining outside and when I looked out the window, I saw a large, white wolf on the roof.  I also noticed that the house was leaking in the room I was sleeping in.  The ceiling and wall were both soaking wet.  The wallpaper and plaster were soggy and starting to sag away from the wall. I didn't have time to wonder about the wolf though, because my alarm went off and I woke up.  Carl and I both got up.  It was just starting to get light outside.  I peeked out the window and saw Madison wandering around outside.  I couldn't figure out why she was outside when she should have been in bed.  I opened the window and called to her.  She looked just as confused as I was, but she came inside anyway.  She was wearing jeans shorts, a white T-shirt, and a ribbon tied in her hair like a headband.  Something wasn't right about her.  She seemed different to me, which only confused me more.  She seemed younger than she had been when I put her to bed earlier.  Her eyes were getting red, like when you have pinkeye.  She rubbed them saying "Mommy, my eyes are really hot.". It was all so strange to me that I left the room and went to Madison's room.  There, I discovered Madison sleeping soundly in her bed, right where she was supposed to be.  So who - or what - was in my bedroom?  I went back in to find out. The strange version of Madison now had blotchy redness all around the eyes, like a rash. 

She looked at me, and her eyes rolled back into her head. It came toward me, and I screamed.  Carl walked into the room to see why I was screaming.  But it wasn't really him.  His eyes, too, were surrounded by a blotchy redness.  When his eyes rolled back into his head, I opened my mouth to scream and.....

.....my alarm went off.  Again.  This time, I woke up for real.....I think.
