Plot /Synopsis[edit]

"Mister Sleep" delves into the gripping saga of a group of insomniacs whose quest for relief leads them into the depths of a horrifying nightmare. Drawn into a pioneering pharmaceutical trial, created by Doctor Victoria Chalis (Kate Dailey) they unwittingly become pawns in a diabolical game orchestrated by a resurrected serial killer known as "Mister Sleep."(Roger Dorsey)

Unleashed from the confines of a failed execution, the deranged killer embarks on a relentless spree, driven by a distorted belief that his memories have been stolen by the trial participants. With each victim, Mister Sleep exacts a brutal and bloody vengeance, leaving a trail of carnage in his wake.

Caught in the crosshairs of this deadly vendetta is Felica Payne (Claire Marie Lubeck), a patient grappling with anxiety, agoraphobia, and chronic insomnia. As the daughter of Judge Payne (Austin Rhodes) who sentenced Mister Sleep to death, Felica becomes a central figure in the killer's twisted agenda.

Tracked by the shrewd Detective Nate Bronson (Bronsonn Taylor,) who is aided by Dr. Chalis, Mister Sleep hacks his way across the state, towards an inevitable showdown with Felica and her father.

As tension mounts and the body count rises, Felica must confront her deepest fears and navigate a treacherous landscape of fear and anxiety. With time running out and the stakes higher than ever, she must unravel the chilling mystery of Mister Sleep's resurrection before she and her partner Glenn Howard (Alec James) become his next victims.
