Carl Jung believed in a 'Collective Unconscious', one central area where the dreaming mind found itself in while one slept. Every individual's knowledge of the outside world was pooled into that single hub, and it could only be accessed through the world of sleep.
It very well is - in a sense - another world.
Something is starting to happen. Common dreams are being shared by everyone, regardless of relationship to each other. These dreams are no ordinary story, however. Dreamers all over the world find themselves in them, and they realize that they are fully aware of the lives they lead awake, as well as the fact that they're dreaming.
This strange sleep phenomenon is believed by some to be the very same 'collective unconscious' theorized so many years ago.
Everybody has their own personal 'demons'; parts of themselves they think they'd do better without. These could be things like past actions, mistakes, character traits, thoughts and thought processes, and even physical aspects. Sometimes these aspects can become exaggerated when dreaming, and articulate themselves as challenges (monsters, physical alteration of a world itself, etc) that a character must overcome, mostly with help from others.
Do you dare venture into your dreams? Will you overcome your fears? Will you face your 'demons'? Or will it all consume you whole before you have the chance?
