Backstage: murdered sleep (itch)

Backstage: Murdered Sleep is a psychological horror adventure game. It is the long-dreaded sequel to 2005's Backstage: A Nightmare In One Act, and a reboot/reimagining/synthesis of the never completed Backstage II (last demo release circa 2011), the Backstage 3: Sinfonia proof of concept, and 2006 my 2006 Lovecraftian horror RPG Eldritch.

Anna Molly Grace is an ordinary college student with an extraordinary problem: sleep terrors so intense they make her life a living hell, keeping her trapped in a cycle of self medication and insomnia. When she receives an invitation from the American Sleep Institute's experimental clinic on Santa Casilda island, she has no reason to suspect the terrors in store from her, or the forces intent upon awakening something terribly real from the darkness of her mysterious dreams.
