Why do you dream about murder?

You dream about murder when you are very angry. Your mind exaggerates a situation and releases emotional stress by presenting a worst-case scenario: murder! Alternatively, if you dream of yourself being the victim of murder, it mean that you are anxious or afraid in some situation in your real life. Again, the dream exaggerates everything as a way of releasing stress, but it might also be alerting you to be on your guard against a verbal attack or betrayal. Yet again, you simply may be watching or reading too many intense murder mysteries before bedtime.
