Prologue

The nightmares never cease. Since I was a child I’ve struggled to deal with them. Every night there is a different horror. I see them taking shape as if I was there. Then I wake up sweating profusely from these horrific dreams. I use to dream of another world in which I was running from the strangest creatures. Creatures that only can exist in nightmares, yet they’re all too real to me.

Some nights I dread going to sleep, as if I was in one of those Freddy Krueger films; “A Nightmare on Elm Street,” except I don’t bring any of the horrors back with me. For years now I’ve survived every last encounter. At least those kids finally received some peace or rest from the nightmares.
