Is it normal that in my worst nightmares i'm the monster/killer?

I remember a lot of my dreams and most of them are pretty good. I've had lots of fun ones about a girl I liked back in high school or a great time in the woods when I was a kid even a few that took place in a different reality. There have been a few that were... nasty. In the worst of them, I am always the bad guy. I've killed defenseless people in some, or have been chasing people others. I always wake up feeling like "what have I done!", then remember it was just a dream. I've had these less since I quit smoking 3 months ago, and I wonder if it had something to do with feeling guilty about it. What are all of your thoughts?

    Could be you tapping into yourself in alternate reality- one where you are a serial killer. Hopefully you are sane in this life and realize that everything is connected(even science says so) which means that if you kill another person, you are actually killing yourself...:/

    I have also been experiencing dreams such as these, although I am killing a person who has hurt me. But sometimes I lash out and kill just faceless people. For me it's always to release anger. Could be the same for you?

    You must be feeling guilty or bad about something you have done, It may be associated with the person you have murdered may be not ?

        That's incredible. Probably you just guessed thier names by the first name that probably comes to your mind. Its alright, Everyone has weird dreams. You probably would meet them in the future; Maybe or maybe not (:
