19 parts Complete Mature
Five years have passed since the massacre at Westin Hills. Only two emerged from the nightmare - Raven and Michael - scarred but breathing. They've spent half a decade running from the shadows, suffocating the screams behind locked doors and fake smiles. But trauma doesn't fade. It festers. And nightmares don't die. They wait. Now, teens are dying in their sleep again - marked by the same grotesque brutality. Raven knows what this means. Who it means. Y/N is back. Once a man. Now a myth. Her biological father - the monster burned alive by vengeance and reborn through rage. A demon carved from injustice, fire, and bone. The thing that watches from behind closed eyes. As the body count rises, Raven and Michael are dragged back into the world they've tried so hard to escape: the dreamscape - Y/N's twisted kingdom, where the rules of reality dissolve and terror takes form. But this time, survival isn't enough. This time, it's personal. Because Raven isn't just running from Y/N. She's becoming him. His blood surges through her veins. His darkness whispers to her in sleep. And as the line between waking life and nightmare blurs, Raven must confront the legacy she never chose - and a truth far more terrifying than death: You can't kill what lives inside you. To end the nightmare, Raven will have to go deeper than ever before - into the fire, into her past, into herself. But some nightmares don't want to end. Some nightmares are inherited.

Trigger warning: antisemitism, ablism, transphobia, abuse, dysfunctional house holds, implied self harm and active self harm, mentions of suicide, graphic depictions of fire and death, hallucinations, religious views and bullying, graphic depictions of violence, implications of rape and torture, cannibalism and rot, murder and major character death. A slow burn "possession" and recruitment Alfred Jones and Dimir Vladistov, victims Y and Z. Yurchenvile, home of the one true peace and power, church of the true god and his priesthood. Filled with flowers and lakes, stone paths and dark wooden buildings, long gowns with skin and bones. Gilbert's second home is in this community, and it his mission to picked the next chosen ones, Y and Z. Bring in the board, board made with love and care, if they ask what is is just say ouija. Board of the god, board of gods chosen bodies. Form a bond and life carefree, your body now belongs to me. Book is meant to be a slow detailed read rather than jumping into things head first, this helps keep people reading as they have a longer book and more anticipation the longer they read as things begin to turn rough. Things may not make sense
