If a person has been blind from birth and has never seen anything, what do their dreams look like to them?

Sounds, impressions, feelings, that sort of thing I guess...The things he experiences while he's conscious...

I can't speak from experience, but I would imagine they would dream like anyone else, experiencing ordinary and/or extraordinary events, only there would be no subconscious imagination of sight since there never was the conscious experience. People who were blinded later in life may dream with sight however.

Depends when they went blind, I head an array of color like closing your eyes and seeing the light come in. If blinded after using sight than sense memory basis....

Wow, that is a great question. I guess it would be more like their mind using the sounds they hear and the things they touch to create their "dreams". I have wondered what it is exactly that they "see" since they can't really see blackness...

I guess they don't visualise it is only the listening part (maybe) in their dreams

a room full of bumps that they have to read.

They would have all the emotions of anyone else, but only in the dark.
