Chocolate Graham Crackers & Diet Dr. Pepper =

Last night before bed I had a few chocolate graham crackers and a cup of Diet Dr. Pepper...I'm not saying that had anything to do with my dream, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was somehow involved.
We're in a large house, somewhat dreary-looking...like an 80's made for tv movie of a V.C. Andrews book type of house. I am there, as is John...also, Robert Carlyle is there. We are fighting a vampire with long black hair, he's very tall. Somehow, we kill him. Then, I notice on the back of Robert's neck is a wound. My dream logic tells me that now it is only a matter of time before he becomes a vampire so we must act fast. It gets a little blurry here but we ask him to change clothes and our plan is to lock him into a room for now...but as he puts on the new shirt, it's a close shot of the back of his neck and I see him curiously finger the wound and I know instantly that he realizes what's happened. He turns and comes at us but we shut the door and run. Enter his wife - who apparently has already been attacked by him and is now turning herself. Now my dream starts getting funky because sometimes Robert Carlyle is himself and sometimes it's John. I don't know how, but we are now in a dining room with Robert Carlyle seated facing me and his wife in front of me - I am standing behind her looking at the back of her head.
---At this point, Robert has some kind of flashback...he is on a beach talking to someone and in the water are people, wooden viking-style ships & sea creatures all frolicking in the sun...very vivid and colorful and surreal because the people, ships and creatures are all pretty much the same size in comparison to each other.---
Back to the dining room...Robert and his wife decide that they must die before they turn fully and hurt people. The wife has some last words and after a nod by Robert, I turn and grab a paring knife from the block and stab her through her skull 3 times. Her head falls forward onto the table and stays there for a few seconds before she sits back up and starts talking again. Robert looks at me in a panic, willing me to do something, so I grab a two-pronged carving fork and stab her in the head I don't even know how many more times...felt like stabbing watermelon. Her head is back down on the table now and since I want to make sure she doesn't sit back up, I grab a large knife and CUT HER HEAD OFF. So the head is off to the side on the table and the blood is all over the place. Robert now decides he doesn't want to die and gets up and runs. I chase him with the knife and find him in a room with John's dead and skinned body. He is holding up John's skin in front of himself and dancing....looking at me through the eye holes. I run...and he takes chase...and I hide...and I hear footsteps...and...
I wake up in a panic thinking someone is in the apartment so I whip my head around and see that John's already awake and it's him I hear walking around. And that's it - but I feel all freaked out still about cutting that woman's head off.
