The Green Thing |
Mr. Sommers, a patient in a sanitarium, is having a nightmare – he screams and screams
in his sleep, asking for help that wouldn’t come. The next day, his case was reviewed by
Dr. Grendon and a colleague through the use of a dream tracking machine. Various clips
showed a ‘green thing’ chasing the patient. As a debate ensues on what it could be, Dr.
Grendon’s colleague asked to see one more sample from another patient – and both were
surprised to see the ‘green thing’ again! Curious, frightened, and seemingly haunted by
the creature himself, Dr. Grendon pores over all of his patients’ records and is horrified
to find the same monster over and over. The pink eyes, the big claws – what could this
thing be? And how come it’s haunting a lot of his patients’ dreams? |
