Media of dreams

Earlier today, I had a a nap and during this nap, I got to enjoy the latest book in a book series that only exists in my dreams.

It's called something like "The Blood of Dracula", is translated from either Norwegian or Icelandic, Dracula himself never makes an appearance (nor do most of the characters in Stoker's book but MINA MVP obviously), has 11 or 12 books depending on if you count the short story set in the Artic (which you should because how else do you bridge the gap between the one at the museum and the one at the cathedral) and I fucking wish I could remember more than the above and a couple of images/setpieces when I wake up because I love that series. But alas, it is like all the other media that only exists in my dreams (the Other Star Wars trilogy, the Second Punic War musical, the comic book about Lucifer's war in Heaven etc) is only vague details when I'm awake but whenever I dream of them I remember everything.

Does anyone else have similar "media of their literal dreams"? What are they like?

...I don't have a book but, weirdly enough a long running Western series.

Oh wow that sounds great! :D

The book series I remember existing in my dreams was about griffin-riders in a secondary-world fantasy setting. They were, among other things, ranchers—they had to ensure their mounts' food source moved with them. I think the dream setting was using griffins in a similar way to how a lot of fantasy novels use dragons? It's been a while (over a decade) since I had that dream, but I've always wished I could remember any of the plot. Regardless, I love the concept!

At least fifty percent of my dreams for decades have been books, movies, or theater. I don't have a tag for them, but some recent examples include this poem, this marathon, and this film.

I regret the loss of your musical about the Second Punic War.
