talk to her as to what the nightmare is about

look for underlying issues

that may coincide with the nightmare

and try to resolve those issues

disclaimer
this is an idea not medical advice

I don't know if u are a religious person or not but when I was like 10 yrs old I would have the WORST nightmares too. my mom simply said to me to ask god to please help me not have a nitemare and to watch over me...I no it sounds cheesey but I swear to this day I have not had a bad one. tell her I said good luck and I know how scary they can be. one day they will go away

Well...I just meant in general. Like...is there a bully at school? Is she stressing over something? Have you asked her about the dreams? Maybe talk to her teacher or get input from other adults that know her?

Oh...haunted houses? Evil babies?

Umm...I'd get prayer for her. And I agree with goldenstar. Tell her to talk to God about it.

hey the best way to cure any kind of dreams is by payin attention to them and try to discover the purpose of them..Every dream,includin nightmares are tellin ya something and til you and her understands the reason for this she will continue having them...
