Why do I dream of being in a haunted house?

Ghosts, spirits or demons are usually thought to represent repressed parts of our unconscious that we would prefer to keep buried. If like many people you have this dream on several occasions it would  indicate that these ghosts really need to be listened to - otherwise they may keep haunting you.

Some psychologists suggest that  unconscious feelings behind this type of  dream are likely to be something that you deem to be a less positive experience or less appealing emotion, like anger, shame or envy. Other interpreters have a more positive spin on ghost dreams - and suggest that spirits can represent positive and creative powers that lie within the dreamer, but need to be harnessed.

In your dream it might be worth taking these dream ghosts on instead of running or hiding from them and facing up to what they represent. Then you will know what you are dealing with and should be able to make progress in working with them, so that they will become less frightening and may be able to give you more strength.
