Pleasant Nightmares

Born from the golden age of internet creepypasta, Pleasant Nightmares is a chilling short story collection steeped in cerebral horror and existential dread. An astronaut wakes from cryosleep to find three years have cost him two centuries-and the only voice in the static still calls him Daddy. In room 304, the dead guest left a warning you can only read with a black light. A desperate addict swallows a pill from a blank box labeled "Time" and wakes in a world that has moved on without him. Huddled around a dying fire, the last remnants of humanity recount the arrival of the Four Horsemen. Ranging from deep-space isolation and historical nightmares to corrupted technology and modern urban legends, these tales favor cerebral dread over easy gore, preying upon the terrifying fragility of the human mind.
They explore the consequences of unchecked curiosity and the primal anxiety of what waits just out of sight.
