Last night I dreamt that I and several other people were trekking through this large, possibly haunted property.
It was all bushland, Australian flora from what I remember, and for the part I remember we were following a small, windy creek.
We had had a small, brown rowboat to begin with, but one guy had gone off on his own and for whatever reason we let him take the boat.
Now the interesting part about this dream (apart from the house in the middle of the property, which in hindsight may have been based off one of my childhood homes, and seemed to be really creepy in the dream) was the dinosaurs. Yeah I'm not really sure how or why, but there were dinosaurs around for some reason. It was basically like Jurassic Park in the Australian outback. I don't remember seeing many dinosaurs, but I'm pretty sure there was an ever-present danger of one finding us.
At one point we disturbed a nasty pool of stagnant water, and I was bitten several times by mosquitoes and was quite worried that I'd caught malaria, which I believe we'd lost someone to earlier. I didn't have time to ponder that, though, because a shout drew my attention, and one of my companions was pointing to something.
It was the boat. But oddly enough it was lying several meters out of the creek and was badly damaged.
I couldn't see any sign of the guy who'd taken it, either, or any signs of him dragging the boat there.
Suddenly there was a great deal of loud noises, and we looked up to see some huge, terrifying rhinoceros-like creature lumbering past a... tennis court? Something like that. It was around this point that the dream stopped making very much sense at all. Perhaps my alarm started going off IRL or something. The 'dinosaur' that was menacing us (and had apparently killed that other guy) stopped charging and stood up on its hind legs, revealing that it was actually surprisingly humanoid.
There were a few other of these weird rhino-things in the distance but this one decided to attack us (or me, specifically) and the dream couldn't seem to decide if it had a rhino head or some weird hybrid of an elephant and a triceratops.
Anyway, it got back on all fours and charged terrifyingly at me, so I thought quickly and jumped into a nearby tree.
It was a fairly low-lying sorta tree, its boughs spread far apart, so I was easily able to hop up into the middle of it and hide behind a trunk/branch. I don't know what sort of tree it was, it looked like a mutant combination of several familiar kinds of tree. Whatever it was, the elephantasauras didn't want to crash headlong into it, so it swerved at the last moment and stood up, turning its head to scowl at me as it jogged to a standstill.
Then it turned around and I got back out of the tree and it charged me again, and as before I hid in the tree.
I don't know what the hell the others were doing, but I'm assuming they got the heck out of dodge and were immensely grateful for my distraction.
And then I woke up.
It was all very confusing, and earlier on there were other plotlines of varying levels of drama.
Unfortunately I barely remember any of it now. I actually went back to sleep and had another, similar dream, of traveling through a large space being hunted by some sort of large creatures, but I don't remember it at all.
