Congratulations on the new house. By the way for probably five years after I bought my house I had dreams of discovering new hidden parts of my house. Like "holy poo poo, there's an entire room I just found by accident, I'm gonna make it an arcade room" and that was another aggravating dream to wake up from. You can count on having a LOT of dreams about finding new rooms and even floors in your house for years to come.

It probably has something to do with paranoia that the new house isn't big enough even if it is. And of course we just mix video games in with it sometimes lol

Thank you! Yeah it's not the first dream I've had about finding hidden rooms and poo poo. And I plan on setting up the basement as a music/gaming den so that probably factors into it

I'd say this is a secret gaming demon because it's embarrassing enough I'd never tell anyone irl about it plus it's sort of a nightmare so that counts as a demon

I regularly (as in, at least twice a month) have a dream where I find some rundown store in some shithole part of the country and because it's in a pretty unpopular area filled with old people, they still have brand new copies of old games. Like in the dream I go into the video game section of the store and yeah they have ps4 stuff but under tons of dust they still have sealed nes games and snes consoles. I always climb up one of the shelves and there's an entire box of brand new snes consoles never opened. Oh and the prices are like $2 because they've been sitting there for years and no one buys them

I always get in a bad mood from it when I wake up and for a few hours I have a deep seething desire to buy a sealed nes game or new in the box Game Boy red play it now colored system on ebay.


Your secret gaming demon is that you use Microsoft Edge lol

ive had this dream once or twice, or finding a book store with a million old D&D book lol

i had a similar story, which is that i found a whole box of booster packs for an anime CCG at electronics boutique once, and was insanely excited to get home and open them, picturing being able to make epic magic the gathering style decks, but there were no instructions and it was before one could easily just find instructions for any game online, plus i didn't recognize any of the anime.

that box would probably be worth a lot of money if i'd held onto it without opening, though...

This is a secret gaming demon of my friend but when we were in the second grade he opened up a box of Ellio's frozen pizza and actually had a winning box for a nickelodeon super toy run. His mom filled out the box cut out and mailed it off and they never heard anything about it again

I had a dream a couple years ago that I was like an hour late for work so I woke up and got dressed and rode over there as fast as possible and when I got there all sweaty and freaked out I looked at a clock and I was 3 hours early.
