DESCRIPTION

Darkchylde is the hit series about a cursed southern teen who can become any of the creatures from her many recurring nightmares. Haunted by horrible, yet strangely familiar dreams, and forced by her unsympathetic father to move yet again to a new town, beautiful but shy Ariel Chylde hoped to find in Salem, GA what had eluded her elsewhere.

But what Ariel doesn't know is that her nightmares are more real, and more deadly than she ever dared imagine. And that a dark secret she's carried inside all her life is about to break free, setting in motion a chain reaction that threatens to engulf the one quiet town of Salem with an ancient and terrible evil.

Issue 01:
On the eve of Ariel's Birthday, and the dawn of her first day at Salem High, something sinister circles. And it will hitchhike over on Ariel's very flesh and blood as her Nightmarish curse finally reveals itself. This is the one that started it all.

Issue 02:
Something ancient and evil has awoken in the bones and blood of young Ariel Chylde. And in the violent aftermath, only new friend Perry can offer any shelter from the erupting storm. But there's a bad man stalking the shadows, and bad men never want anything good...

Issue 03:
Twice now Ariel has changed into the creatures from her nightmares. Now comes the traumatic realization that once she becomes "herself" again, the things she's brought forth can become completely independent of and can roam our world freely. But not all of them seek to harm her. In the form of War and Piece, some seek to help.

Issue 04
Perry and father Jack have delivered Ariel into the hands of Sentry, a para-military-paranormal entity, in the hopes of saving Ariel. But It seems all Sentry is helping is that bad man in the shadows, who now has all the Nightmares Ariel has set free under his control. And he's just getting started.

Issue 05:
A tale about a tortured teen who can become her Nightmares couldn't possibly end well, could it? The final haunting chapter brings Ariel Chylde's first story arc to a shattering, spellbinding conclusion. You won't believe who lives, and who dies, as spirits, places, and people are broken seemingly beyond any hope of repair.
