Ever dream this man?

Every night throughout the world hundreds of people dream about this face.

In January 2006 in New York, the patient of a well-known psychiatrist draws the face of a man that has been repeatedly appearing in her dreams. In more than one occasion that man has given her advice on her private life. The woman swears she has never met the man in her life.

That portrait lies forgotten on the psychiatrist's desk for a few days until one day another patient recognizes that face and says that the man has often visited him in his dreams. He also claims he has never seen that man in his waking life.

The psychiatrist decides to send the portrait to some of his colleagues that have patients with recurrent dreams. Within a few months, four patients recognize the man as a frequent presence in their own dreams. All the patients refer to him as THIS MAN.

From January 2006 until today, at least 2000 people have claimed they have seen this man in their dreams, in many cities all over the world: Los Angeles, Berlin, Sao Paulo, Tehran, Beijing, Rome, Barcelona, Stockholm, Paris, New Dehli, Moskow etc.

At the moment there is no ascertained relation or common trait among the people that have dreamed of seeing this man. Moreover, no living man has ever been recognized as resembling the man of the portrait by the people who have seen this man in their dreams.

The aim of this website is:
- to help those who have seen this man in their dreams and to foster communication among them;
- to understand who this man is and why he appears in an apparently pattern-less array of situations in the dreams of such diverse human subjects.

While I am an experiencer of Dream Switching and know of the valuable evidence for Mutual Dreaming (shared dreams etc.) my first instinct is to call "ARG!"

Nowadays, besides consulting CIA-Snopes I also look to the ARGonauts at Unforums online:

[Trailhead?] Thisman.org

They seem unsure though.

Seems the face may have been created on flashface, which is a pretty interesting little app. Thanks for the legwork, gentlemen.

That sure sounds like fun. I've thought about mutual dreaming in the past but am not totally sure how to go about instigating it. Any tips or info sources?

I wouldn't doubt Mr. Rogers has a lot of time now to visit people in the Dream world.

I tried posting some very nasty shit on the guest book of these whores, but found that my messages ran up against their list of censored words.

Fuck? Shit? Poopy? Nope. The censored words are the company's name and e-mail.

Hola NaturalMystik,

Unfortunately my only personal experience was in highschool with my best friend and this was a spontaneous event.

I've since obtained the book but don't recall any tips:

Of course google returns several sites:

I Do Not Like that face.

I see this man in my dreams all the time!

Alaya, an ARG is an Alternate Reality Game. The hallmark of these games is that everyone involved insists "This is not a game!" It's really quite annoying.
