I fell asleep on the couch, in our living room, at the second floor, one afternoon when I had this dream.

I woke up at the same place. But it was dark and quiet. Too quiet that I can hear my own breathing. I had a flashlight on my hand.

When I turned it on, I instinctively pointed it on the ceiling above the door to our terrace. And that's when I saw him...

He was hanging on the ceiling upside-down. An old man who was half naked, only wearing blue jeans. He looked like a zombie, but he was the size of a large doll.

He screeched at me and I got scared.

Somehow, I knew it was a dream, so I tried to wake myself up. But I couldn't.

I can't remember what happened after that, or how I woke up.
