escaped prisoner

I don't remember this dream much, but it disturbed me. I don't usually have scary dreams at all.
I was in my neighbourhood somewhere and it was late at night and I couldn't get home because we had identified this new neighbour as an escaped convict and he was a frightening murderer masquerading as a friend at a small get-together. I think I was a young child because I felt afraid and I didn't want to be alone, I wanted to be protected like a child. But then I was the one who could identify him and it was getting later and later and he had disappeared and i had to wait for him to get back for some reason. I also just wanted to go home, but i couldn't go home because I was afraid he'd see where i lived and then I wouldn't be safe...

Then I had another prisoner dream after that one, but I don't remember either one very clearly. At some point in the second one, I think I became trapped, I was a prisoner behind bars, holding on to them, walking along a narrow corridor looking out... spooky
