One year ago, four friends barely escaped the unrelenting terror of the video game called Nightmare Cemetery. After spending endless hours locked into the innovative Dreamwave—the first gaming console played entirely while you sleep—in order to save one of their own from the game’s all-too-real consequences, they survived . . . barely.But after their harrowing rescue, they’ve decided they’ve had enough of Nightmare Cemetery and its enigmatic final boss, the King of Sleep. That is, until the newest DLC, The Blighted Sprawl, suddenly appears online with a promise to reveal the truth of what actually lurks at the heart of Nightmare Cemetery’s digital darkness . . . and why its effects are now bleeding out into the real world in an array of bizarre and disturbing new ways.

Inside and outside of The Blighted Sprawl—the newest DLC update to the video game that nearly killed them all a year ago—the Cemetery Kids are on edge as they watch one of their own degenerate toward more and more irrational violence. Meanwhile, the other members of the online gaming group are being stalked by their avatars in the real world. . . . And that’s all before the new update’s most terrifying boss, the Coyote Prince, prepares to unleash its next merciless attack on four teenagers with nothing left to lose . . . except their own rapidly fraying lives!
