I was with two other people - a guy and a girl - the girl was Kate Beckett from Castle and the guy was a black guy like Sam L Jackson. We were infiltrating a building of some kind to try to catch a killer. As we descended into the building we found that it was becoming harder and harder to navigate. We eventually reached a place that was like a large bathroom/locker-room/sauna and Kate told me that as we went in it would be impossible to know which direction was which and we would be getting very lost.
She was right.
We entered the shower area and suddenly it was a total maze. We were hunting Freddie Crueger and we knew it was dangerous. I kept dipping in and out of little rooms, little shower zones, with my back to the wall making sure that I had my guard up in case he appeared. Once I crossed paths with my partner Kate, but eventually I found myself totally lost in the maze of little rooms, showers, mirrors, and indecipherable directions and as I dipped into the darker unoccupied shower area, I looked out and there was Freddie - coming at me with his knife hand. I was ready. I was not afraid of him and I lunged toward him with a weapon (my knife) with the intention to kill the demon. He made a violent war scream at me as we ran into each other.

The deeper meaning may be that the shower represents the letting go of old and useless ideas, opinions or prejudices. Often this dream is a call to relax, to free your mind of daily troubles, and to put your problems away for a while.

The maze could represent your current mental outlook. A maze is a frightening and confusing place. If in your dream you are trapped in a maze and are having difficulty getting to the end, then you need to stop and consider your current emotional and psychological status. I don't mean to suggest anything is terribly wrong. Simply speaking, are you often confused and unsure of which way to go? If you are facing many hard decisions this dream is a good indicator that you need to step back and look at the entire picture. At times we are all emotionally disorganised and confused, but admitting this dream's message is step in the right direction.
Rooms in dreams, much like in waking life, are a way to compartmentalize aspects of our lives. We undertake certain tasks in certain rooms, for instance we sleep in a bedroom, work in an office room and cook in a kitchen.
In dreams different types of rooms represent different aspects of our subconscious, or symbolize thoughts connected with whatever we connect that type of room with in waking life. So, for instance, a kitchen in a dream may represent sustenance, cooking and eating, or even family gatherings - depending on how you use your kitchen in waking life.
Furthermore, the state of the room in your dream can tell you something about the message it is trying to convey, i.e. kitchen dreams may be telling you to eat more or eat less, or eat differently, depending on how it appears in your dream.
Discovering a new room in your dream could represent discovering a new part of your subconscious, a new aspect of yourself that you haven't explored before, an aspect that your subconscious thinks that you should explore.

swordsman.
