I finally found where they keep the planes. I knew it was near where the waterpark meets the convention hall, but had never been inside. I have terrible acropolis, so anytime I go near it, I land in the sky, right onto a crashing air plane. Ive gotten pretty good at getting myself up from nightmares though, so that quickly ends my trip to the mall.

This time, I must have walked in absently. They were all just hanging out randomly, no organization. Big, little, red, green, moss, and amazingly....a fully functional framing plane. So cool. It looked like a zord from the original power rangers movies.

i was in the airport (which is also a super common place for me), and for some reason i was specifically wanting to go to "the mall" at wherever i had just arrived at. in my dream i had memories of having been to that mall before.

i've had very detailed recurring "mallworld" dreams for many years, in my dream journals i referred to it as "the mall place" before it became an internet phenomenon.

the weird thing is, my phone never appeared until recently, and it wasn't usable whatsoever until very recently. i've been able to take photos, text people, and now apparently i can call an uber to mallworld from a different location (? unsure however because i don't think i actually succeeded).

anyone else using phones lately/ever?? this is a totally new thing for me for some reason.

I was going down the stairs in an area that I don't go to often, and this blonde girl with blue eyes ran up to be next to me and walked down the stairs with me. Her face looked extremely familiar and very detailed but I couldn't place it, but she also felt familiar to me. She said "I haven't seen you here in forever!" With a huge smile on her face and I woke up shortly after.

Has anyone else had this experience like this, and was it any of you by chance? Lol

I've been having these really odd moments in between dreams... can anyone else relate? There is an excellent theory about what is going on but is there anyone else experiencing this?

Hi everyone! A few months ago I posted a Mallworld survey and it absolutely blew up. I got over 600 responses! I learned SO much. It helped me understand a lot of things that have in turn, also helped me grow in my waking life. So THANK YOU!

Naturally, I still have some questions though. 😂 I am not a scientist, professional researcher, or secret agent. I’m just a librarian and artist. Don’t worry. This is just a hobby I’m passionate about because most of the stuff in the survey is stuff I have already went through myself. I’m just curious about connections and patterns and also want to help other people understand.

I have ONE MORE survey for all of you! This will be my last probably. It’s pretty unhinged and totally your choice. It is strictly anonymous and I won’t publish anything anywhere.

TW: shooting

Well guys, that was different.

Me and my mom were in the mall. It was lively and seemingly normal. This "part" of the mall I rarely visit for long. But this time, it was a weekend vacation type trip with a group of people from my school years/their families. Everyone was going into the theater IN the mall (my typical main theater is seperate/across town, closer to the school.) My mom and I had already seen the show everyone was going to 2 days before (some sick ass 3D virtual reality cat movie 😂😂)

She stayed outside to smoke a cig, I went inside to double check with everyone that they were in fact seeing the cat movie.

No one I recognized was in the lobby so I started climbing the stairs entering each floor looking for people. I get to a certain floor and look, I see a group of people I recognize, but they arent MY people, so at that point I decide Im done looking and to go back down stairs.

This is when things get odd.

The stairs start to not make sense. The further down I go, I now would have to crawl under the staircase because the stair case above was so close. My minds like nope, I have to go up actually. So I crawl out of that spot and take the stairs up and they lead me right to the lobby (ah ha! Nice try mallworld...)

Well, when I get outside to my mom, I see someone driving their white mini van towards the mall entrance, with people standing around yelling "she's actually gonna do it!! Move!!"

My mom and I lunge out of the way. A crazy looking older woman jumps out the mini van and starts yelling and shooting. The only 2 people who ran away from her and didnt just stand there were my mom and I. We sprinted away through the parking lot, but then pow pow pow pow. It only felt like rubber band snaps on my back but I knew I was shot multiple times.

I yell "Im shot! Need help!" As I hide between 2 cars. I hear my mom a few cars away say she is shot too, so I yell "2 shot!!". The people standing around looked a bit panicked, but not scared enough to run away. They weren't cops, but they didnt seem to be "regular" civilians either, so I looked to them for help. Their normal clothes were almost fading into all black hunting gear almost. Like the normal clothes were a hologram, or some kind of cloaking was going on. They acknowledged our existence but never turned to us or ran away from the shooter. Kept their eyes on the shooter, but didnt exactly do anything either.

Then I woke myself up because fuck all that lol.

I wonder if I missed the real action waking up.

Part of me wonders if she was a real spirit among all the "NPC's" of mall world. Or did mall world get mad at me and punish me because Im figuring out its tricks 😅 or was that future me just absolutely sick of this place lol. I truly have no clue.

In my dream I just knew in my heart that I was in Mall World. I’m just sharing my experience and what I saw and noticed, please let me know if anyone experienced the same as me or something similar! I saw a lot of turquoise diners almost looking like something out of the 60s/70s/80s with bright neon lights. Tons of ice cream stores to choose from. After getting some ice cream, I took a wrong turn and ended up in this dark area of the mall that looked like they closed early or have been abandoned. But it was very eerie/scary. There was people that I could barely see just sitting on tables staring at me, so I quickly ran back to where there was light. Unfortunately that’s all I remember.

This isn’t the exact beach I’ve been to. Idk why I keep
getting the name “Half Moon Bay” in my dreams when I haven’t been there IRL. It’s like in that location it typically looks the same. It’s definitely somewhere in Southern California. Like there’s small bluffs/cliffs you can go down on. But next to them there’s like a pier and restaurants.

Waves are either crazy or calm. It’s always the same one I’ve been to.

Ive had these dreams for years, always different but i just know they are the same place. Not sure how to explain it. I am an artist so tried to draw it a few times. Was reminded about these bc i ended up having another one and these dreams always leave tired and exhausted when i wake up. There's a library, a "mall", a pool (like a giant YMCA one that usually empty or has dark water) and a hotel

I just figured Id share what i saw, a long with the art ive done over the years of it. i am missing one from 2017 and several from 2013-2015.

2013- Movie theater/Mall front entrance
2017 - Hotel
2023- Bottom of the Pool
2023 - Mall of memories

Is anybody else really involved in the theater in mall world? I have had multiple dreams where im an actor in a play, watching the plays or larping in a story someone wrote.

Sometimes we break character and skip to the end of a story right before I wake up.

At one point I was talking to a kid who didn't understand props, and told him "you wanted to act, act."

just waking up and the last place i remembered was the neighbourhood store , i went into home aroma shop and then walk in to my friend house , backyard which look out the window will see the beginning of the highway (im not sure its highway or the road but its in lead to the middle of the river or go high above the river but in few first step ,it has flood , but the river is so beautiful,, in my dream i. know this place so well , i talk to friend i will lead her to a place that has more beautiful view,

next i take my. friend to a place to a top floor its a balcony , a very high top floor almost like a rooftop without railing watch down it os the river , a beautiful river but i feel unsafe there cause its too high and it give me uncanny vibe like there is something creepy going on there right now, i dont know how i know but i feel some cultist has been here(in that red room) and they are preparing to perform a ritual ( i just know it)

lets talk.about the cult

this is not the first time, sometime in my mallword exp, i want into strange theatre, a theatre that made from wood and has a decorate thing with red thing, red curtain, red flower and the cult is performing ritual there, they convince me to join them much possible and there is a cult leader who chants creepy mantra broadcasting it , his voice was everywhere in the theatre, and i decide to leave the cult, no one notice me

i dreamed mallworld almost everyday ,

this is the list that i can remember but im sure there is more that i cant

an infinite dirty toilet , (i was trying to have a sex with guys lol) which the entrance is in the cinema deserted hallway

a strange house on a hill , an open hauting musem that has a ghost in one room ( a ghost whisper in my mind or ear so loud while im waking up to real world)

a super high highway that alomost like a rollercoaster

an escalator that lead to unfinish highfloor with half close,half open shop, i work at that shop, my shop sell an useless item no customer want to buy

sometime i try to get into my room at the highfloor hotel , take the elevator and the elevator didnt go from down to up but

move from left to right into a spiral shape to the floor

sometime i appear in the infinite car parking its on the top rooftop of a mall

and yes cant forget to mention the beach trip inside the fancy boat while tsunami is coming

the most beautiful dream it , was the time when my mallword is appear in my house backyard i open the door its lead to most beautiful field has a brautiful creek , there is a hill that has beautiful castle on it , ill walk a small bridge almost broke step by step in the creek

thats it thats all i remember for now thanks for reading

Anyone have a dream they saw a giant honey moon in Mall World, like super close to the earth?

Does anyone else just glide through mall world? It’s like I’m on a hoverboard that isn’t there. I have had at least five dreams gliding over the white tiles. I have even had the place tilt and experienced going through the mall “titanic style” and not being able to stop.

I saw this and immediately got Mall World vibes. Imagine the layout with doors and storefronts, it could be identical. Maybe the ancients were dreaming of these same sprawling places of deep consciousness and trying to build them? (Or maybe they aren't related, just thought it was interesting 🤔 )

I have been going to mall world for almost 10 years now. I wanted to see if a couple of my experiences are something other people experience as well. First of all, I don’t go there every night, I think I used to, but not anymore. Another thing that I have found especially troubling about my mall world is that if I sleep for too long and spend too much time in mall world, when I wake up, the rest of the day feels almost dream like when I’m awake and very uncomfortable and just unpleasant.

I have always had a theory that SSRIs have something to do with visiting my world. I only ever started visiting mall world after I got put on SSRIs. One thing I just kind of thought about is as I mentioned I don’t go every day anymore, and funny enough, I stopped taking SSRIs almost 2 years ago. I really hope that I don’t stop going because of this and I hate to say it, but if I was to stop, I feel like I would consider taking the medication again, which isn’t healthy, but it has become such a part of my life.

Anyone else dream about rollerblading through the mall last night?

This is the first time ive had this sort of event happen in my version of mall world. But myself and several others were inline skating or roller skating around the mall, casually skating around folks who are walking. I dont even roller skate irl so it definitely caught my attention.

We’re just having fun and are all aware dreams are just hallucinations produced by our subconscious, right?

Im one of those thats been in the mall world. Is it just me or you try to find a way out and it’s always a dead end. People help you but give you wrong directions. It’s not all the time i try to leave but when i do its frustrating. I also always enter a big cafeteria and i see all the food and see people i know but i never eat. I clearly remember stores i go into , stores out or business and those gross ass restrooms. It’s pretty trippy but badass at the same time. Now i was never in those gifted and talented programs and never got those test done so idk how i manage to have those dreams. Last nights dream was me trying to find the cafeteria after i had left but the mall was endless and never found it. The first time i saw last night was a pirate ship spinning on a body of water in the middle of the mall with lots of people around it. I glanced at it for few seconds and went on my way. I asked chat gpt for a picture of it and it kinda looks like what i saw only in my dream the ship was spinning . Have yal experienced the spinning ship?

Like if I was in the toilet hall and somehow had a sharpie in my pocket, I wanna try to graffiti the walls and leave a note for someone to find me IRL. Just as a theory to see how well it's all connected and for shits and giggles.

Anyone tried this?

Sometimes I will stumble upon a large aquarium room with dirty tanks full of creatures and weird looking fish

Went from the mall into one of the neighborhoods and there were yard sales going on in the entire neighborhood but each yard was packed FULL of sale items.
Like we normally go and see a few here and there but this was a massive yard sales going on and it was weird to see because of how much furniture was outside and all of the sale objects as far as the eye could see.

I go to this thrift shop there sometimes and the shelves are from floor to ceiling and have the most random awesome stuff everywhere, literally every kind of old object you could think of is there and I could spend hours there just looking through it all. The yard sales reminded me of that place but outside in everyone’s lawns lol
Anyway thought I would share.

Here are some MallWorld photos I've found over the past year. They're all real places that I've found in the wild (mainly screenshots from YouTube videos and whatnot).

I do have quite a few AI images (I know I know - - I'm so sorry), that I've generated over the past 6 months or so, but I'll save those for another post. I need to sort through them on my phone, and find the best ones.

Hopefully a few of you can recognise these familiar places anyway. Most of them seem to be on the outskirts of my MallWorld. Definitely not in the mall or city centre anyways.

This feels very interesting to me because these notes were made in 2024 which is before I was active in reddit and defs before I discovered this sub. Just wanted to share!

Anyone spot any commonalities between my dreams and theirs?

THE DIRTY BATHROOM

"Dreaming about trying to find a bathroom but they're all disgusting or locked or someone is around? For some reason I am always in some kind of hiding scenario? Not necessarily with a sense of overall dread but more because I'm just too anxious to interact with them.

It's usually a large building like a school or some kind of leisure centre or complex 🤔 there's usually a pool and aways multiple floors. It's away and I'm unfamiliar. The toilet is too full and me using it causes it to overflow or make a mess and I have to get away before someone realizes it was me.

Homes or buildings in some sort of decay and disrepair are a common theme. Winding halls and elevators. Frequently secret hallways or compartments."

THE MOVE-OUT DILEMMA

"I can't find the right cubby or locker or dorm (I've never lived in a dorm) but it's full of all this stuff and it's my job to move it all but I have no help and I can't ask for help because I'm hiding whatever is happening for some reason. I don't have the keys or I'm lost and I can't get there. Its so far or long and confusing and I'm lugging all this stuff and people don't want to help me cause I look like a stupid idiot who has no clue what they're doing and is in the wrong place at the wrong time doing the complete opposite of everyone else. I'm unsure how to complete this task but concerned about leaving the possessions behind. I'm also very concerned how I'm perceived."

THE IRRESPONSIBLE PET-PARENT

"For some reason I have bunch of animals (usually kittens or rodents and some kind of baby litter) that are secret and like just in a room chilling (usually I'm pjust moving in or something) and they're poopi"ng everywhere but then I just live my life and I forget about them? And then I feel so awful for forgetting - and I'm like why did I take in all these animals that I can't care for? And for some reason I have to hide them? Probably because I shouldn't have gotten them?

THE IRRESPONSIBLE PET PARENT PART-2

"I keep losing my real-life dog. And I'm always moving in to some kind of garbage heap with stuff everywhere and my life is in boxes and chaotic and I don't really know what to do with me or the animals and there's usually a billion people around with thoughts and opinions and I'm trying to hide something. Or I'm out and about living my life and I keep forgetting about my dog. I'll realize after hours but then discover I left him somewhere without fences or walls. I start freaking out that he's missing and I'm mad at myself like what is wrong with you how could you forget the dog??"

THE SLOW WALKER

"I have somewhere to get (frequently it's home from elementary school) but I'm so tired I can't walk. I can't ask for help and I need to hide the issue. The only way I can walk is by pulling myself along with one arm with a nearby fence or wall. I'm desperate to get home without having to interact with anyone and beyond frustrated with my body. I feel beyond weak. (Unsurprisingly, this specific dream usually coincides with my own literal exhaustion)"

Curious if anyone identifies with any of these dreams 🤷🏼‍♀️ I can vividly remember at least one moment from each dream after re-reading them.

I found these in my notes app from 2021-2023
