Dream-lock: The Nightmare Escape Artist

Every time you close your eyes, the nightmares come. Not the kind you forget when you wake up-these are vivid, relentless, and worse, real in some way you can't explain. They claw at your sanity, whisper truths you wish weren't true, and leave scars that don't heal with the morning light.

This is the life of Jason Cain, a once-promising neuroscientist who now struggles just to survive the night. Haunted by a condition no doctor can name and no drug can dull, Jason is caught in a terrifying loop where sleep means horror and staying awake means madness. But instead of succumbing to the shadows, he does the unthinkable-he studies them.

Using science, willpower, and the fragments of his unraveling mind, Jason begins to map the logic behind the nightmares, seeking patterns in the chaos. What he discovers is not just a way to fight back-but a hidden world that links dreams, consciousness, and something far more ancient.

This is not a story about escaping the darkness. This is a story about learning to live with it-and still rise.

"Dream-Lock" is a psychological thriller about endurance, discovery, and the quiet, brutal courage it takes to keep going when every part of you wants to give in.
