We all a remember  the bedtime stories of  our childhoods. The shoe fits Cinderella, the frog turns into a prince, Sleeping Beauty is awakened with a kiss. Once upon a time. And then they lived happily ever after. Fairy tales. The stuff of dreams. The problem is, fairy tales don’t come true. It’s the other stories, the ones that begin with dark and stormy nights, and end in the unspeakable… It’s the nightmares that always seem to become reality.
