Dreaming in Digital

I had a dream where this beast that was humanistic, but had a horse's/donkey's head with glowing golden eyes that were round and right in the front of its face; its gaze was intense. It ran after me so I ran inside a house and tried to close the screen door but it had its head in the doorway and was trying to get in. My mom had a knife and tried to make it go away; my first intent was to kill it. My mom now had a xacto knife and was trying to cut off its fingers but it started crying. My mom opened the door and the monster turned into a little toddler girl. She said her fingers hurt.
