I've heard that when you die in your dream, you die in real life, but from my experience this isn't true because I've died in my dreams numerous times.

This one was very strange...

I was trapped into a small room with polished wood floors and walls. Someone was standing by the door watching me but not directly in front of the door so I couldn't hurt them.

A guy (that I work with) then came to the door and threw a knife at my throat. He did this so that I couldn't swallow and couldn't pull it out (as a means of torture?). After staring at him for a minute in shock, he left the doorway, and when he came back, he set me on fire.

The next thing I knew, I was gone-I was in the room, but my body didn't exist. I looked up at the wall and saw a sculpture of a man's face hanging on the wall. It seemed as though I entered the sculpture and then pulled my face out of the wall and became a man.

I walked passed my murderer's room to find him sleeping on his bed, uncovered, with a double-headed arrow shape burning on his floor to protect him from any harm while he slept-as if he knew I were coming for him. I felt there was nothing I could do at that point and walked into another bedroom.

I continued having many other strange dreams that night, but this one felt very real.

I just learned that arrowheads are worn as an amulet to ward off evil-just thought it had an interesting connection to the dream since I wasn't aware of this before.

Not sure the meaning, maybe someone can help? Thanks!
