I have been thinking. What exactly is the rationale behind nightmares. Is it a form of evil and diabolic manipulation, is it a figment of our imagination, is our subconscious self playing some sort of trick on us, is it a supernatural phenomenon or simply superstitious belief ?

I've heard some persons attribute it to so many concepts like; facing the ceiling while sleeping, sleeping while your legs are positioned towards the door, cobwebs , wall geckos and so many others.

My good people, please I'd really like to hear your views and opinion.
Happy Sunday.

The human mind is a very powerful machine. Nightmares are suggested in some cases to play on our anxieties and worries. So, the more stressed you are, the more likely you are to experience them.
