The Sleep Walking Game: A Psychedelic Cosmic Horror - Paperback

by Erik I. L. Horvat (Author)

It is the mid-1970s when Otis Thompson comes to work on the mysterious Spicer Farm: a sheep and cattle station in the middle of nowhere. But it doesn't take long before Otis begins to notice that not everything is quite what it seems.

There is an old barn that is locked up and barricaded shut, a man with only one thumb that he is sure he has seen before, and nobody has seen the owner of the Farm, Mr Spicer, in over a year. He has locked himself away inside the Farmhouse, only passing on messages and instructions to the farmhands through his wife, Mrs Spicer.

And as Otis wonders why no one else has noticed that something is terribly, terribly wrong on Spicer Farm, he begins to slowly slip into insanity - suffering from paranoid delusions, insomnia, chronic nightmares and vivid hallucinations, all while he obsesses over what they might be hiding in that mysterious barn. And as he slowly uncovers more and more of their secrets, he finds that the truth defies his understanding of reality, and he is faced with a Lovecraftian horror that threatens to consume what little is left of his fragile mind.
