Just to make a long story short.... In my dream, i was with my dad's family at a campground,, then a trashy looking Kevin Bacon came up to me waving around a stick of incense and telling me that i was gonna die in 3 weeks.... ummm, what could this possibly mean?? Do you think it could be true that my life is about to end?

anyone who tells you what your dream actually means does not understand the theories behind dreams themselves.
There are a couple theories, but I'll discuss the two most general ones.
The first is probably the most popular and well known of the three, and in my mind, has little credibility (although it does have some). This stems from the freudian theory, and it basically means your dreams are a window into your subconsciousness. It also means you can interpret the symbols you see in your dreams, which is what you seem to be looking for. So if you were to have a dream about dying, proponents of this theory might see it as some sort of symbol about your fears or your obsessions, or whatever. Personally, I don't believe this theory too much.
Another theory involves random firing in your brain. Basically, it states that the brain randomly fires during dreams, which allow for neurons to stay alive (they die if they do not fire within a certain amount of time) and also allow for memories to become strengthened. Although the firing is random, it doesn't mean that everything you see in your dreams is meaningless and useless. If you have spent a lot of time thinking about death in the last couple of days, then it is more likely than not that it will come up in a dream because so many of your neurons have been devoted to thinking about that. Another good example would be if you were to play games a lot. When tetris first came out, people got addicted and played the game for hours and hours. That night, they'd find that their dreams were often of tetris. Personally, I think this theory is a lot more credible in that it has more evidence going for it. Based on this theory, your dream of Kevin Bacon either comes from having seen him in a movie or two in the last week, or it's just from a random firing that happened to come up. The death thing is a more common event in dreams since that's something that always seems to come up in our minds.
So ultimately, what's the main message to get from your dreams? Personally, I would say nothing. It might tell you what has been on your mind a lot, or it might just be some random firing in your brain. Ultimately though, dreams are not a sign into your future. They are not magical and they don't have predictable powers, they are only random firings that are perhaps a sign of what has been on your mind lately.

Well, maybe being at the campground with your dad's family was a sign of comfort. Along came someone who is not part of your family to disturb the comfort.
Kevin Bacon was a representation of another male you know in life or something that is a part of your subconsious self...I have no idea why your mind would have picked him though, only you can guess that.
I don't know how religious you are, but in most religions incense is a sacred symbol. It also might represent fire. Fire can be symbolic of energy and passion, or might mean something is burning away or ending. Since incense usually emits a pleasant smell, maybe it symbolizes something ending for the better.
Death in dreams is actually a favorable sign. It means that something in your life is ending and something new is coming to take it's place. In essence, death symbolizes change.
It's either that or you have been watching too many movies lately, lol.

No, no one knows when they are gonna die. You probably were watching one of Kevin's "movies" ::cough cough:: and it all just came together in a dream. If you really wanna believe in this dream then when you see Kevin Bacon. RUN! : )

Death indicates change, which can take a trillion avenues. Without more info, that's all I can say. Don't worry too much about it, though. It could just be that your mind is drawing a picture and having some fun with you.

Dreams aren't predictions of the future; they are subconscious manifestations of the hopes and fears that we have not dealt with successfully in our conscious state.

It may not mean anything. Bad dreams come once in a while.

stop sniffing glue and watching footloose before you go to bed.
The dream seems pretty meaningless to me.

Death sometimes signifies a new beginning in your life.
