scary nightmares and actions as a child

When i was about 3-15 years old i've always had the same nightmare every single day, around the same time. During these episodes i'd do all sorts of crazy things. I'd get up and sleepwalk/run, cry, throw up, and scream. My mother told me that she would try to calm me down but i would never seem to see her or hear her? I've read about night terrors but i feel like there's more to it. I can actually remember the nightmare very clearly. I'd dream about a bloody man with a face that didn't represent a human's. he looked more like an animal. In my dream there would be a lot of different people. I'd see them getting butchered by the animal-like man and hear them scream and such. he'd eventually move to me and start cutting me open and removing my insides. I think about this everyday and it gets very very difficult for me to sleep at night. I remember when i'd be so afraid that i'd have the urge to kill myself. Was this more than just simple night terrors?
