There's a lot of gaps in my recall of this dream, but I woke up with my heart racing at 3.10am, and couldn't get back to sleep.
The dream: I'm in a town, lots of people around, and I want to leave. A man I know said "you better not leave while I'm gone" [this is the only person I recognised in my dream, & he was a recent short-term ex bf, no dramas with him or anything]. I thought to myself "you can't tell me what to do". Then this old woman said "don't even think of running away". Then a young girl came up to me & said "I'll help you", so we bolted when the old woman wasn't looking, but there was an area of the town we had to cross, & the girl said to me "be careful, she'll see you". I took my chances, & got caught. A man about 40 grabbed me and was laughing & sneering at me. He took me to his caravan, and his wife [?] & young family stood around & watched, laughing, while he cut a hole in my ankle, and attached me to a long rope, that was secured behind the caravan.

Continuing on... I was tied up at the back of the caravan, and the young girl suddenly reappeared. She didn't seem to realise that I was attached to the rope, & tried to lead me away from the caravan. A group of kids saw me & noticed the rope, horrified and pointing at me. The noise made the man come out & he picked up the rope & dragged me back to behind the van. I didn't feel any physical pain, but in the dream I was too scared to look at my ankle, because i thought he might have ripped it open. As a "punishment" for venturing out the front where others could see me, he tried to put his young son's penis in my mouth [I'm bluddy well horrified at telling you this], I fought him & before anything happened, that's when I woke up. I believe I might have forced myself awake. I remember feeling totally helpless and thinking that I'd rather be dead than do that.

beatlefan brings up some good points, however don't entertain this notion of an inner child guiding you. It seems more likely that the little girl speaks to the family norms of when you were little. It is impossible to accurately interpret dreams like these w/o knowing you and your history. And for that reason, you should talk to a family minister or a pastor about this - and DON'T let them persuade you to ignore this. There is obviously something going on or about to happen or you would not have had the recurring dream.
But it seems that your family norms or maybe some decisions that you had made then have brought you to a situation where you feel trapped (this may be the hole in the ankle, as the feet in dreams normally bring reference to a lifestyle or course of actions). As for the two others that you referred to, this could represent that you have had two other warnings - typically from someone you know or have lost contact with recently.

Wow..... about the only thing that I can come up with, is that you feel trapped in a situation in your life, the young girl is your inner child trying to help you find a way out of it, yet you feel there is no escape..... there seems to be a group dynamic going on as well, like if there is something you really need or want to do with your life, but your family, friends and other support group wouldn't support it, or you really need to do something that would be a departure from what your support group would consider the norm, but you could be holding yourself back with fear of what they would say about it, without even really knowing what they would truly think of it...We are often bound by customs, and responsibities, and sometimes feel trapped by them....

Sleep paralysis...as a result of no longer sound asleep constant hours. Most almost always for the duration of this section of being no longer equipped to transport..there's a common feeling of whatever on the backside of the mattress, or whatever crawling on most sensible of you...a terrifying enjoy....and feel it or no longer, there was study on proving that the "hag", or some thing your imagining... is REAL. There is a realistic capsule to take as soon as, that corrects your sleep mechanism. You ARE aware however caught in rem sleep whilst. See your Doctor.

IDK, but bad dreams happen by stress or something like that. It could've been something you did the day of this dream that trigured stress, depression, and/or hurt. Then you went to bed along with this stress and had a bad dream. Whatever happens, just find a way to be calm and relaxed. But in New Mexico, it's like 95* F here! Ugh! That's what keeps me up.

its probably you had met some mishaps recently and you couldn't get enough rest. you could be having a lot of stress recently. i think you should be more careful now as the dream may mean something dangerous is about to happen to you
