I posted the dream in a Dream Analysis community on Livejournal but no one seems to have any ideas. It's too long to post the whole thing here, but here's a link to where I have it all typed:
http://community.livejournal.com/dream_analysis/485612.html
The summary is: After arriving with some childhood friends at a house where a small film festival/party was taking place, I started being chased by the Devil, who was in disguise, and I travelled from room to room through this house. After a peculiar incident involving fishing hairpins out of a toilet, I got cornered in a room by the Devil and had to escape by jumping from the window, about a 4 story fall. I broke my teeth out when I landed.
I would be very interested to know what this dream might have been about. Feel free to ask any questions that might help.

I'm entirely sure the dream is not about being molested, and that it's not about anything too personal to talk about in public.
I might also add that I am not a Christian, and I don't believe in the Devil; which makes it even weirder that I was afraid of him in the dream.
As for my concerns about my teeth; well, I am trying to take better care of them in reality as they have a lot of cavities, but I wouldn't think that even in dream logic that would be related to me breaking them out by landing face down on the ground after jumping from a window to escape the Devil. (Unless the Devil was, in fact, that demon for which we must all watch out -- tooth decay! ;D )

The evil one is trying to get you, but you were unaware of it until now. You were trying very hard to get away from him, but was side tracked because of hairpins which represent vanity and some unclean problems which involve females. You were willing to risk death to get away from the devil. You did not want to go along with his plans. Broken teeth represent deaths, each tooth usually represents a person that you know. Since it sounds like it was all of your teeth, this could mean simply the death of self to the sin which the devil was after you for to destroy you, but you survived thru your sheer will to live uprightly.

Being chased by the Devil = being criticized by someone you feel rejected about
Travelled from room to room = searching for support
escape from the devil = denial
broke your teeth when falling = lose control.
There may be something in your life that you do not like about. I think it indicates your social life. Perhaps, someone in your life that you do not feel respected about. They could be some high authority figures. They could be your teacher, boss, parents. You may be searching for someone who has the same situation as you. And somehow you are into some sort of denial because you can deny this perosn or people are in control. Bascially you are losing control and you may have guilt conscience in your dream as well. This is coming out from your subconscious mind.

I'm not much of a dream interpreter, but I know of a really great site you can check out. You can look up specific things that were in your dream and it will put meaning to it for you.
I'll select a few words to look up and then I'll put what it means to see in your dream.
"Devil" - To see the devil in your dream, signifies negative aspects of yourself. It may also indicate feelings of guilt that you have been harboring. It is time to release these feelings. Alternatively, the devil may represent intelligence, cunningness, deception, and cleverness.
To dream that you fought off the devil, symbolizes that you will succeed in defeating your enemies.
To dream that the devil talks to you, signifies that you will find some temptations hard to resist even though you know it is not in your best interest.
To dream that you and the devils were in friendly terms, suggests that you may be seduced and tempted into doing something you do not want to do. You may be dealing with issues of morality.
"Chase" - To dream that you are being chased, signifies that you are avoiding a situation that you do not think is conquerable. It is often a metaphor for some form of insecurity. In particular, to dream that you are chased by an animal, represents your own unexpressed and unacknowledged anger which is being projected onto that animal. Alternatively, you may be running away from a primal urge or fear.
To dream that you are chasing someone, signifies that you are attempting to overcome a difficult goal or task. You may also be expressing some aggressive feelings toward others.
"Childhood Friend" - To see your childhood friend in your dream, signifies regression into your past where you had no responsibilities and things were much simpler and carefree. You may be wanting to escape the the pressures and stresses of adulthood. Consider the relationship you had with this friend and the lessons that were learned. Alternatively, the childhood friend may be suggesting that you have been acting in a childish manner and you need to start acting like an adult.
"Teeth" - To dream that you have rotten or decaying teeth, forewarns that your health and/or business is in jeopardy. You may have uttered some false or foul words and those words are coming back to haunt you.
To dream that you are brushing your teeth, signifies your level of confidence, struggles and aggressiveness. You need to look out for yourself and your own interest.

Most dreams come from guilt of something if they are seemingly a punishment. Either from your upbringing or your own personal thoughts of your actions in a dream. Also how are your teeth? Are you happy with them? Or are you abscessed with their look? You should never ask a dream question in public like this...it exposes things about yourself to strangers that you need to keep private. Our Dark sides come out at night and they should not be paraded in front of strangers except close friends or mom.

It was a religious experience. God is calling you. Talk to your pastor!
No just kidding I really have no idea though it may mean that one of your friends is evil and you will be embarrassed, hence the chipped tooth/devil thing.

It sounds like repressed memories of being taken to a pedophile party.You should try regressive hypnosis therapy. Sorry.
