An old mansion with a secret.

I think my dream started when I was at home. Nothing peculiar, just me playing computer like always. It was only me, my mom and my brother at home since my dad had a business trip in another country. Skip, skip, skip... Later on, mom got a mail saying we've got free tickets to go on a vacation to somewhere, only I can't recall where it was. When we got there, an old woman escorted us to a room where apparently, my dad was waiting for us. We hugged and stuff like that... Somehow I felt like there was something wrong with the place, like there was a different aura about it that was dangerous and harmful. There were other people in there as well, boys and girls who were of my age; they seem to have been invited to this weird ancient-like mansion just like my family and I. Also, I was roomed with 3 girls; luckily, they were nice to me. They looked flirty, but in truth they were just like me, only better-meaning more beautiful, whiter, lesser no pimples, etc. I told them about what I was feeling, and they said that they were feeling the same. That was when I decided to investigate a little about the place. I asked the old woman who owned the mansion about its history, and she told me that this house is haunted by a girl who died in here. I asked her a few other questions, then left.

The next few days, things started to get strange. People were mysteriously disappearing out of nowhere, and no matter how hard we try to find them, we couldn't. We wondered where they all could've gone, then I remembered. The mansion was haunted. I told myself that maybe this was the girl's doing, making people disappear and things like that. But why would she do such a thing? We weren't doing anything bad. Later in my dream, I learned a very bad news: Hypnos was dying. Correction: he was already dead. I, myself, have no idea why Hypnos, the god of sleep, would be in my dream, dead and lifeless. It was weird, too. Like, how on Earth would a god die? They're all immortal, aren't they? It was a question I never successfully got the answer. Anyway, I went to the room where Hypnos was lying down. When I saw him, I felt pity for him. He looked so pale and blue, like all of his blood was drenched out of his body. He was really big too, like all gods and goddesses should be. Dad was trying to cure him, but he was too late. The old woman started crying. I asked why, and she told me that she didn't tell me the whole truth about the house. The truth was the girl was her daughter and that she died in this room. I can't recall how she died, unfortunately. I tried to calm her down, saying that it was okay and that at least she told the truth. I told her to get some fresh air and leave the room for a while. She did what I told her to do and left, still crying a bit. Suddenly, I hear screaming. I looked out to see what was going on and saw one of the old maids shouting. The old woman went to the maid's aid and followed her. What I saw terrified me.
Zombies, I thought.
There were zombies in the house. What's worse is that the zombies were the people who disappeared and never came back. They were heading towards us, and my heart started to pound fast and loud. I ran towards the other door saying, "Mom, dad, we gotta go!" I got out and saw the zombies still following me. I ran to the very end-now I had no escape. I had no choice but to jump out of the high balcony and hopefully land safely in the grass below. I jumped high away from the house and the evil zombies, and before I knew it, I was awake.
