| | STORY DESCRIPTION Aaron Grill suffers terrible nightmares. When his wife left him for another man, he turned to the bottle and lost his job, his lifestyle and his self-respect. One evening, he is viciously attacked, loses consciousness, and nearly dies. While unconscious, he experiences a hallucination in which a beautiful young woman appears and offers to rid him of his nightmares. When he regains consciousness, he remembers nothing, but when the woman visits him that same night to repeat her offer, he fears he has suffered a concussion and is imagining her. The woman convinces him she is real and that if he accepts her offer, he will no longer suffer nightmares. He is reluctant, but in desperation accepts her offer.
As the days progress, he remembers nothing of the woman and soon realizes that he no longer suffers nightmares. He also discovers many other things in his life have changed. Bad luck vanishes. Good fortune has become his constant companion.
However, when he meets the woman of his dreams, his good fortune abruptly vanishes. He senses that he has somehow become a pawn of evil and fears that whatever was done to cause these changes in his life will lead to his certain death. | Keywords related to this title - click on a keyword to find more, related stories Horror Suspense Hallucination Supernatural Nightmares Demons Author information: Influenced by the works of Ray Bradbury, Richard Matheson, Harlan Ellison, and Theodore Sturgeon, he began writing in his early teens.
