Nightmares and Dreams are actual creatures who invade human minds as embodied fears and joys. But with the new BlissMax pill (guaranteed to give you good dreams all night!) the Nightmares are starving.
Violet doesn't use BlissMax (or any modern niceties, thanks Dad), and one night, a Nightmare—the fear of hell—enters her enticingly un-medicated mind and gets trapped. Though Violet has a penchant for creepy things, having a Nightmare stuck inside her mind causes problems: narcolepsy and yet further distance from reality, to name a few, not to mention the Nightmare begins to starve in the wake of fresh human fear.
In a misguided attempt to get him home, she gets dragged into the city of Nightmares, Halloweentown on steroids. Once there, it becomes apparent the Dreams and Nightmares hate each other and getting back (alive) only tips the list of growing complications.

Saviour
Carol Maynard wakes in a world that shouldn't exist - a place of hunger, sickness, and fear ruled by a man she half-remembers. Each time she closes her eyes, the world shifts again: a sterile hospital room, a therapist's office, a quiet home by a pool where a little girl calls her Momma. But these aren't dreams. Each reality feels true. Each carries the same faces wearing different lives - the same man marked by the Bone Frog tattoo, the same voice that calls her name in love, in anger, in warning. As Carol begins to piece together the fragments of who she is and where she belongs, she discovers that her mind isn't broken at all. It's unmoored. She can cross between worlds born from every choice she's ever made - and every regret she's ever buried.![The Turing Test - [Open Novella Contest 2019 Shortlist]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/124889507-256-k247287.jpg)

But amid rising public tensions over an artificial intelligence project she's spearheading, Ronnie's dreams begin to infect her waking life, too.
