KOI: A Twilight Zone Show - Perchance to Dream #9
from The Key of Imagination: A Twilight Zone show with Joe Meyer · host Dr. Joe Meyer
Can dreams hurt us? No, I'm not talking about some Freddie Kruger stuff. I mean can nightmares cause our bodies to fail? In this week's episode of KOI: A Twilight Zone Show, we're talking about the episode "Perchance to Dream." It's the story of a man in crisis, desperately trying to stay awake, for if he goes to sleep, he will be face-to-face with Maya, the femme fatale. We'll talk about sleep, heart conditions, and what seems to me to be somewhat of a plot hole in the episode. Consider joining us on this journey through the Twilight Zone.
