You wake in the dark, pinned to your bed, unable to move. A shadow waits at the foot of the mattress, breathing slow. On the nightstand, the phone is off the hook. You can dial any number — but the line connects to something that was never human. This is the Sleep Paralysis Hotline. In each standalone episode, Luna answers a different caller trapped in the hypnopompic state between dreaming and wa... more

August 1987. Oakridge, a town that sweats even at midnight. Luna's cousin Danny takes a summer job at the Motor Lodge, a place where the ice machine grinds all night and the vacancy sign hums. He's assigned to room 14 — a room no one stays in more th... more
October 2006. After the homecoming bonfire, a group of Oakridge High seniors gather in the field behind the gym to tell stories. But one of them — a quiet girl named Marcy — has a story of her own. She claims that every time she falls asleep, she wak... more
In the winter of 1997, I spent my nights reshelving books in the Oakridge Public Library, a limestone building that had stood silent since 1912. The basement held the archive—old newspapers, ledgers, and a locked door that no one had a key for. But o... more
Luna recalls a string of late shifts at the Oakridge Diner, where a regular named Arthur sat alone at the night table every Tuesday at one in the morning. He never spoke, only stared at the salt shaker, and left a single dollar as tip. When Luna fina... more
October 1998. Oakridge, Indiana. The Bluebird Trailer Park off County Road 9. Luna's cousin Rachel calls her at 3 AM from a pay phone in the park office. Rachel has been hearing something in the crawl space under her trailer for three nights. Not scr... more
In the fall of 1987, Luna's aunt rented a farmhouse on Cold Spring Road outside Millbrook—a place with a woodstove, a deep well, and a root cellar that seemed to breathe. The first week was quiet. Then the scratching started in the walls after midnig... more
It's 2:47 AM in late October, and Luna is alone behind the counter of the Oakridge Diner, a tired relic on the edge of a dying town. A regular named Harlan comes in every night, sits in booth four, and orders black coffee he never drinks. But tonight... more
In the summer of 2017, Luna's friend Caleb took a night shift job at the Oakridge Water Treatment Plant, a squat concrete building on the outskirts of town surrounded by chain-link and warning signs. He said the work was easy—check gauges, log readin... more

A chilling, standalone horror anthology centered on a paranormal hotline where callers recount parasomnia-induced hauntings and uncanny encounters. Episodes blend intimate first-person narration with eerie, self-contained narratives that revolve around sleep paralysis, waking nightmares, and rooms or spaces that seem to remember and constrict those who enter them. Recurring motifs include shadow figures, unseen presences, doors and thresholds that don't behave normally, and a steady atmosphere of claustrophobic dread. The format emphasizes tight storytelling, vivid sensory detail, and a slow-burn sense of inevitability rather than explicit gore or horror tropes. A notable strength is the consistent voice-driven storytelling—each episode off... more
