The Anesthesia Strain

For senior OR nurse Elara Vance, control is everything. But after a terrifying entity from her sleep paralysis nightmares begins to cross over into her waking world, she discovers a horrifying truth: anesthesia is a doorway. Her patients are now the prey, their vulnerable minds a gateway for a thing that doesn't kill—it infects. As reality blurs and her own mind becomes a battlefield, Elara must find a way to close the door before she, and everyone she loves, is lost to the smiling thing that waits in the dark.
