Altarboy Stories

During a hospital sleep study, eleven-year-old Naomi Carter speaks in perfect sentences while her EEG shows continuous delta activity-deep sleep, a stage in which speech does not occur. The anomaly draws two men into its orbit: Dr. Adrian Wells, a rational pediatric neurologist who doubts anything he cannot measure, and Father Miguel Salvatierra, a priest who trusts in faith where medicine demands proof. As Naomi's nocturnal speech evolves into something far more dangerous than words, neurology and theology converge, revealing that consciousness is not a closed system-and that some words summon what should remain dormant. Between the men grows a tension neither professional nor holy, and the mystery begins to threaten far more than their beliefs. Delta Legion is a slow-burn horror thriller about sleep, identity, forbidden intimacy, and the doors the human brain opens when we are no longer awake.
