The Nightmare

De: Devyn Leal

Narrado por: Devyn Leal

Alfred is haunted. At night, surrounded in complete darkness, more alone than he already is in the world, Alfred sees things, things that most people would describe as a nightmare. Whispers from demonic voices and tall shadow creatures torment him every night as he lies there, paralyzed and filled with fear. He tried telling people in the past, but nobody cared. Scientists still have no idea what causes these visions, and all the remedies he's tried in the past don't work, so every night, he's forced to endure all that his imagination can conjure, as he lies there helpless.

One night, a new kind of shadow appears, different from any of the regulars he had seen a dozen times over. This one looks familiar, and with its arrival spawns a remembrance from a time in Alfred's life that he tried so hard to forget. It becomes his nightly visitor, and with each passing night, it gets closer and closer to his unmovable body. What happens next will leave you scared of your own bed, and mistrusting everything you've heard about the phenomenon known as sleep paralysis.
