Trapped in a soul-crushing job, a young woman escapes into a private world of nightmares and fantasy. As her grip on reality slips, her disturbing visions become increasingly vivid and unnerving. Torn between the allure of her inner darkness and the fragile hope of redemption, she must confront the demons within before she's consumed by Johnny Panic's bible of dreams.
