| Summary | Phantom Dream thrusts a young man into command of his late father's iron factory, where he grapples with its brutal legacy. But a chilling incident shatters his reality, plunging him into a terrifying, fractured existence. He awakens in surreal scenarios: piloting a cursed plane, witnessing spectral figures in Tokyo, then confined to an asylum by his own doppelgänger. Later, he's haunted by the drowned and ensnared in a transparent world with no escape. As sanity frays and identities blur, each new torment blurs the lines between nightmare and waking life. What insidious force orchestrates this relentless unraveling, and can he ever escape the trap of his own mind? |
