The people of the small town of Silvervale are in trouble, and they don't even know it.
When a mysterious tree magically appears in the park at the center of town and begins luring people to it with vivid dreams, no one knows anything strange is going on... no one except high school senior Lyla Dewlite, whose friend is caught in the dark web of the tree's magic. She must find a way to stop the tree before its games turn lethal, but the only one who knows anything about it is an enigmatic man in a red suit who wanders around town with a notebook, talking to everyone. The problem? No one ever seems to remember him afterwards. No one but Lyla... and that could be because she's not entirely human herself.

"When the Dreaming Tree appears, it will tempt you. Don't go near it. Don't sit under its branches, and whatever you do... don't fall asleep."
