Do You Dream In Colors or In Black/White?

I don't tend to remember colours (or black and white) from my dreams - only experiences. For example, the most vivid dream I had was where I was a hostage and they were about to shoot me. I remember being on my knees, hands tied behind me, the gun by my head and the trigger being pulled but I don't remember if there were any colours.

I dream in colors - though occasionally in black and white, but that's rare. My dreams usually have an elaborate plot and often even a narrator. :)

:happy2: I'd be jealous, too. Morgan Freeman rocks my socks. James Earl Jones would be an equally welcome narrator...how come my dreams don't get narrations?

...what should one eat before bed in order to appropriate a dream-narrator, I wonder? :confused:

My dreams are incredibly un-detailed visually...I don't even know if they're black and white or color -- there are basically only enough details for me to recognize people and objects.

Sounds, on the other hand, are quite detailed...

I experience dreams quite abstractly; they barely ever follow a cohesive timeline.

Color, all the way. Not that I remember many of my dreams, but those that I do make absolutely no sense at all. :D

:nice: I'll...er...get right on finding out what that could possibly be... narrated dreams would be amazing... You know, I'd even settle for Liam Neeson -- he has an incredibly rich voice as well... :D

I dream in color and extreme weirdness. And that I get stabbed or sliced or set on fire or something similarly painful every couple of months (and it hurts, even after I wake up).

Do you dream in colors or black/white?

Always in color, at least as far as I know. And lots of sensory stuff as well. Most nights I have hypnogogic hallucinations as well; it's how I go to sleep. I just let myself fall into them and enjoy.

My dreams are typically bland, but always in colour. The idea of dreaming in black and white intrigues me, though.

I can't recall dreaming in black and white. My dreams typically look realistic, though the plots are often fractured.

I think it's always in color and they feel and look real.

I dream in color. A long while ago I had some exceptionally more-vividly-colored-than-life dreams (meaning, I think, that the Color was the point of the dream, if you will, ie I was aware of it and focusing on it), but usually they are colored normally.

I had one black and white dream back when I was in either late elementary or early junior high. It was 'visionary' to the point of my waking up disturbed and actually writing it down in a diary. It was not a nightmare per se, but it was jarring and woefully sad.

I only dream in black & white.




Okay, not true. I dream in-color. Occasionally sepia, though. Rarely.
