Welcome to Dreaming of Cannibals.

So what is Dreaming of Cannibals about exactly? Like, what the hell kind of a name is this? Is this an eerie how-to blog? A site explaining what happens when you’re asleep? Or an off-putting combination of the two?

This will be whatever I want it to be. It might include posts on horror movies and horror culture, movies of many different genres, music, pop culture, lifestyle, the whole makeup/skincare/fashion rigmarole, fictional writing pieces, and my personal outlook on different topics, news, and etceteras in the world. I believe an outlet for creativity, in any sense, is a must for everyone.

Now, the name. What the hell, right? Where did this name come from?  It originated from a dream I had roughly two years ago. Seems like “Cannibal Holocaust” was on my brain that night because, in the dream, an old co-worker of mine was front and centre in that midnight mind movie. She was the main character, trying to outrun the cannibals that were chasing her in the jungle. They shook their sticks and screamed as she slowly tried to run away… Was she meant to be a metaphor for me? I woke up being absolutely terrified, and I couldn’t remember much else. I asked myself, why would I dream of cannibals? Therefore, the name essentially made itself.

So here’s to horror movies, great music, open commentary, and having your own little corner of the internet. Dream on!
