The Dink Network

When I was knee high to a grass-hopper, I distinctily remember seeing a ghostly old lady at the top of my stairs as I was going up them. Apparently my great grandmother had died there.
But then again, I also remember running downstairs to tell my parents, only to find many of the "Monster Munch" monsters in my living room.
These memories are very confused, and while one is obviously a dream, i find it hard to tell whether the other is as well...
