Groans
Groans heard in the dark often touch hidden distress and the sense of enemies quietly undermining you — though groaning in fear can precede a pleasant turn. The dream may ask whose suffering or scheming you sense beneath the surface, where you must decide your course quickly, and whether the low sound of trouble might give way to relief.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for groans, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
If you hear groans in your dream, decide quickly on your course, for enemies are undermining your business. If you are groaning with fear, you will be pleasantly surprised at the turn for better in your affairs, and you may look for pleasant visiting among friends.
Fontaine, 1862
To hear groans of agony in your dream, denotes that you will soon go to a frolic, or to a place where you will be much entertained: if you see and recognize people groaning, it shows that they will soon do something to amuse or please you.
