Lord Voldemort in Harry Potter's dream

A dream is a succession of images and sensations that occurred involuntarily in the mind during certain stages of sleep.[1] The method of divination that involved analysing dreams was called dream interpretation.[2][3]

The Potion for Dreamless Sleep provided a dreamless sleep for the drinker.[4][5]

The Dream Messenger was the method by which students of Uagadou were notified of their selection to the school.[6][7]
