About See You in Your Nightmares

Welcome to Lutwidge Wellness Center for Sleep Disorders — where nightmares come to life. Harper Hart has been plagued by unrelenting insomnia ever since her twin sister, Callie, was mysteriously found dead. She turns to Dr. Faith Carter and her team for an experimental treatment program using Blossom, a cutting-edge AI, but things quickly spiral out of control. There’s something evil stalking the Lutwidge’s residents in their dreams, and Harper will have to overcome her deepest fears to make it out alive.

Dive into the nightmare in this original YA scripted horror podcast by the team that brought you Lethal Lit: A Tig Torres Mystery and Daughters of DC – Einhorn’s Epic Productions and iHeartRadio.

LUTWIDGE CENTER SUBJECTS:

HARPER HART, 17, AKA SUBJECT 7V2

ALFIE ABILI, 16, AKA SUBJECT 5V2

Intruder hallucination: Subject describes paralyzing fear, an alien presence, and being frozen in place. Subject also suffers from paranoia, affecting quality of sleep.

Recommend initial course of treatment focused on moving extremities to break paralysis.

JULIA TAKEUCHI, 17, AKA SUBJECT 6V2

When Subject is asleep, she describes recurring nightmares of a figure she calls “The Smiling Man” –a tormenting presence that appears to damage her psyche while awake.

LUTWIDGE CENTER TREATMENT STAFF:

DR. FAITH CARTER: BCETS, CCH, LMSW, NCP
Dr. Faith Carter founded the Lutwidge Wellness Center for Sleep in 2019, after receiving grant funding to expand her private practice and scale the proprietary AI (“Blossom”) technology necessary for the program. By running this unique AI while patients sleep, the program transmutes a patient’s dreams through Computed Tomography and High Frequency synthesizers (EVP) in order to elevate subconscious experiences into tangible data, further advancing Dr. Carter’s expert psychiatric assessments. Essentially, the Dream Program at Lutwidge Wellness Center is a healing program like no other.

FINN WARIN
The Lutwidge Wellness Center is not only a place of healing but of learning: we are proud to introduce our Associate and doctoral candidate, Finn Warin. His own studies with sleep and its effects on the human psyche overlap with Dr. Carter’s, and his dedication and skills are a welcome addition to our team.

BLOSSOM
Dr. Faith Carter’s proprietary AI system is a promise for the future. It’s main goal is to deregulate dysfunctional behavioral systems white the subject is asleep, along with capturing and recording gamma waves through Computed Tomography and High Frequency synthesizers (EVP), translating this into tangible data. But in addition to these tasks, Blossom is an adaptive AI that learns daily tasks and routines: dispensing food, monitoring vital signs, and creates a calming atmosphere conducive to sleep. Blossom: grow with me.
