Jonestown

I was just watching an old documentary on Jim Jones and saw a particular scene in it that I must have seen on television as a young girl when the whole Jonestown cult made the news with mass deaths in Guyana.

Quote from my dream (posted earlier):
There was an end-of-days type of dream, very Biblical, which was probably the most potent dream I’ve ever had. It took place on Thanksgiving, in California, and on a street that looked like it was in San Fran or something. In this dream was at least one of the four horsemen of the apocalypse, a van that only let certain people in it to go to heaven (including a fat lady with a mumu), a changing sky, and a lot of my relatives in a big house. My dad was very calming in this dream, as he was there. The dream ended with me going into the bathroom and getting my period.

The lady with a mumu getting into a van? I believe it came directly from news footage I watched when young, about a lady getting off or on one of Jim Jones's buses. I just saw the same footage in the documentary, and it struck a chord. Here's a screen cap:
