LOL GTL that reminds me of some of the messed up dreams I have!

I always have dreams that I see ghosts. I had a dream the other night that I woke up, and I was in my bed, but the light in the room adjacent to mine was on, and I heard shuffling and rustling and footsteps in there. I was kinda freaked out because my room is set up weird - in order to get downstairs, I have to walk through my room and that room. I somehow KNEW that it was a ghost in there. I walked up to the passageway that leads from my room to the other room, being sure to make as much noise as possible to maybe scare it off before I got there. The noises quit when I got right up on the room, and whenever I finally worked up enough nerve to peek in, what I saw made me immediately not frightened anymore. It was a male about my age (18), curled up in the fetal position on the floor looking terrified. I walked up to him because he looked like he needed help, and I asked him what was the matter. He wouldn't tell me, but he kept shaking and started crying and hugging me. He never told me what was wrong, but I think I did some good because while I was hugging him, he eventually stopped crying. Whatever it was, something upset him in the worst of ways.

I've always heard of people seeing ghosts in their dreams that turn out to be real ghosts of real people... hopefully this one was just my imagination, not necessarily because I'd be scared, but I'd hate to not be able to help someone who is in that much emotional turmoil for eternity. It started out to be a scary dream, but it ended up being rather sad.
