Whoa. That's weird.
Do these facts have to be true, or just random facts?
Facts are facts. They're never false, are they?
True facts, duhhh. Just things not a lot of people know.

I remember this dream when I was little where I got crushed by this moving wall and from there I just watched my body.

I've heard this, but sometimes I have dreams about someone and their faacial details are slightly altered (nose a bit pointier, differnt color eyes, etc.). Would that still count?

Diabolical box anyoneAnd I'm pretty sure dreams of death are one of the most common ones out there, along with apparently teeth falling out? I've never had that one
I've never had a dream where my teeth fell out.
Years ago I use to create monsters at night (seriously!) I didn't close my eyes I could just see them in the dark walking around my room, one monster I specifically remember was a witch (not exactly a monster but hey ho) and the witch would fly around my room then chuck a red lazered cage at me and red lazers would be all around my body creating a giant circle (it's eventually wear away though) I've never told anyone about this. I wish it still happened, (I occassionally see myself in a red lazered cage at times though!)
Oh and I use to be able to pick my dreams! Like inside my head there was a sort of dream picker (layed out as like a character selector, like mario but for dreams) and if I didn't like a dream I'd change it using my dream selector.
I've got wonderful imagination :) and it is alll true.
Find a different topic to talk about dreams.
It's a random fact that popped into my head, I gave you 2 dream related ones. I use to be able to choose my dreams and I created imaginairy monsters I could see with eyes open only in bed though at night.
Sometimes, I can manipulate and bend my dreams with my willpower. :P Other times, I don't really dream; I just think about things during the night.
