Dreams fascinate me. You are right re the terror, plus sometimes the fury and the anguish. Thankfully, the beetle/molten lava dream was back in my teens and twenties.
I think that the house in St Ives dream is that I felt very cut off from others. My friends all had gone to uni and/or lived hundreds of miles away. My family were a 20 minute bus ride away, but I was solo with a six year old and very, very broke. The dream is born out of a lot of young adult frustration and of missed opportunities. Saying that, I did have some quality time to write, draw, listen to music etc.
I have dreams that are parts of buildings superimposed over others in dreams. I also get drawn to a pub across the water that I haven't been into for years. I can see the symbolism of it all :-)
