She meets a group of children at a local hospital facing Freddy Krueger, the same demon she once encountered in her sleep. One of them is Kristen, who has the power to draw other people into her dreams. Working with a male doctor assigned to the case, Nancy helps the kids realize their special abilities within the nightmare world.

acting any different?

Did you notice anything strange

before she made the attempt?

Kristen specializes

in strangeness.

l've spent thousands

on psychiatrists.

Did she always have nightmares?

No. They've gotten worse since

l took away her credit cards.

l'm serious.

l don't know

what you want from me.

Just some answers.

Other kids are involved,

not just Kristen.

All good kids, smart kids.

l'm sorry to hear that.

You're the experts, not me.

lf l had any insight

into any of this...

l would share them with you,

believe me.

l'm sure you would.

Excuse me.

l have to get downtown.

l'll need to get her things.

l had them packed

in a suitcase. Teresa.

l'll get them.

Please, l don't mind.

lt's the first door

at the top of the stairs.

You.

Oh, my God. Run!

Get us back out, Kristen!

Do it now!

l used to live in this house.

That's just a house

l dream about.

Have you ever done that

before...

pulled someone into your dream?

When l was a little girl,

like four or five...

if l had a nightmare,

l'd always bring my dad in.

The dreams

would always get better.

He used to tell me about it

the next day.

He used to think

they were his dreams.

When did that stop?

When l was still a kid.

My folks got divorced,

and after a while...

l just thought

l imagined the whole thing.

l guess l didn't.

lt's an amazing gift.

The man in my dreams,

he's real, isn't he?

He's real.

OK. Group's in session.

Straight talk only in this room.

Today l'd like to start

getting us acquainted...

with our new staff member

Nancy Thompson.

Let's make her welcome.

You've already met

Phillip and Kincaid...

and, of course, Kristen.

How about the rest of you tell

Nancy about yourselves?

Will, how about you first?

Hi, l'm Will Stanton.

l've had a little accident,

as you can see...

ended up in this chair.

Accident, my ass.

You said this was straight talk.

So he took a jump. He wasn't

sticking needles in his arms.

Save it, Kincaid. Jennifer?

l'm Jennifer Callfield...

and as soon as

l get out of here...

l'm going to Los Angeles

to be an actress.

l'm going to be on TV.

Yeah. "Lifestyle

of the Rich and Psychotic."

Screw you.

This is Joey. He used to be

a debater in school.

Now he doesn't talk much.

l'm Taryn White.

The only reason l'm in here...

is because

it's better than juvie hall.

Also because l'm going through

some very strange sh*t.

Your dreams?

Everybody has bad dreams.

Can l interject something

just to save time?

Sure, Phillip, go ahead.

According to our kind hosts...

our dreams

are a group psychosis--

sort of a mellow mass hysteria.

The fact that

we all dreamt about this guy...

before we ever met
