¿Creíste que las pesadillas habían terminado?, ¡Pues será mejor que dejes las luces encendidas, porque la tercera entrega de la hilarante y terrorífica trilogía de Jason Segel y Kirsten Miller ya está aquí! Charlie Laird tiene un mal presentimiento. Para empezar, una chica de porte enigmático —y definitivamente familiar— se ha presentado en la Escuela Primaria de Cypress Creek; luego, ha comenzado a escuchar extraños ruidos muy tarde, en la noche, cosa que nunca es buena señal; y finalmente, las pesadillas han vuelto, ¡y están más locas que nunca!: cada vez que visita Mundo Tenebroso, una horrenda oveja negra está ahí, esperándolo... ¿Será que Charlie está atrapado en las pesadillas de alguien más? Eso, él, no lo sabe, lo único de lo que está convencido es que ICK e INK son responsables.

Charlieho Lairda opäť mátajú zlé sny. A pritom ich nemal od čias, ako sa odvážne postavil svojim strachom. Zakaždým sa ocitne v Podsvetí na poli, obklopený stádom desivých čiernych oviec. Nie sú to obyčajné ovečky, aké počítame, keď nevieme zaspať. Okrem toho, že vyzerajú hrozivo, nerobia vlastne nič mimoriadne. Charlieho však najviac znepokojuje, že to nie je jeho vlastná nočná mora. Jednoducho uviazol v zlom sne niekoho iného. A dal by ruku do ohňa za to, že v tom majú prsty dvojčatá ICK a INK...

Charlie Laird žije život snov. Býva v tajomnom zámku s bránou do Podsvetia, plného priateľských nočných môr. A navyše sa mu práve začínajú letné prázdniny. Nedokáže sa však zbaviť pocitu, že sa deje niečo čudné. Slávne herbárium jeho nevlastnej mamy odrazu zíva prázdnotou a zákazníci si chodia po bylinkové odvary do vedľajšieho mestečka! A ešte horšie je, že po uliciach toho mestečka sa ponevierajú čudné existencie, ktoré vyzerajú ako živé mŕtvoly. Vraj sa tam už dlho nikto poriadne nevyspal. Zdá sa, že vo vzduchu visí poriadny malér a Charlie s priateľmi ho musia čo najskôr vyriešiť...

That’s how Otherworld traps you. It introduces you to sensations you’d never be able to feel in real life.

There are no screens. There are no controls. You don’t just see and hear it—you taste, smell, and touch it too. In this new reality, there are no laws to break or rules to obey. You can live your best life. Indulge every desire. This is Otherworld—a virtual reality game so addictive you’ll never want it to end. And Simon has just discovered that for some, it might not. The frightening future that Jason Segel and Kirsten Miller have imagined is not far away. Otherworld asks the question we''ll all soon be asking: if technology can deliver everything we want, how much are we willing to pay? “An engaging VR cautionary tale.” —The A.V. Club "[A] fast-paced adventure." —Publishers Weekly "Authors Jason Segel and Kirsten Miller keep the action nonstop.” —Shelf Awareness

Charlie Laird, 12 ans, doit faire face à plusieurs problèmes : 1. Son père vient de se marier avec une femme étrange (il est sur que c''est une sorcière !). 2. Il a du déménager dans un vieux manoir inhabité depuis des années (l''endroit le plus terrifiant qu''il connaisse). 3. Dès qu''il ferme les yeux, une sorcière tente de l''entraîner vers le monde des Ténèbres (depuis, il refuse de dormir). 4. Charlie est certain que ses cauchemars sont réels et qu''il est "vraiment" en danger. Quand la sorcière de ses rêves enlève son petit-frère Jack, Charlie part aussitôt à sa recherche. Il va alors basculer dans une autre dimension, entre cauchemar et réalité. Mais pour affronter ses peurs et naviguer dans ce monde inconnu, Charlie va avoir besoin d''aide. Et vite...

This guide to the Nightmares of Netherworld contains advice on how to beat the most common species of Nightmares and includes their strengths and weaknesses, fun facts, and pro tips.

Charlie Laird sa už tri mesiace poriadne nevyspal. Len čo zavrie oči, ocitne sa vo svete, ktorý sa hemží čarodejnicami, škriatkami, hadmi, upírmi a všemožnými hrôzostrašnými výplodmi ľudskej fantázie. Strašia tu dokonca i klauni či huňaté biele králiky s vražednými zubami! Jedna nočná mora je však zo všetkých najhoršia a Charlie si s ňou musí poradiť, inak sa z ríše zlých snov už nikdy nedostane a privedie do záhuby aj svojich kamarátov, rodinu a celé mesto... Podarí sa mu nabrať odvahu a čeliť tomu, čo ho najviac desí?

Charlie neměl tolik zlých snů od té doby, co se postavil svým strachům. Kdykoli usne, ocitne se v podsvětě na poli, obklopený stádem děsivých černých ovcí. Nejsou to ovečky, jaké počítáme před usnutím. Nepřecházejí poslušně jedna za druhou po můstku. Nedělají vlastně skoro nic. Ale ještě hrozivější je, že to není Charlieho noční můra. Nějak se totiž stalo, že uvízl ve zlém snu někoho jiného.

Dritter und letzter Teil der grossen Grusel-Trilogie von Hollywood-Superstar Jason Segel

Jason Segel nos presenta la segunda novela de su aterradora serie ¡Pesadillas! Desde que él y su pandilla lograron escapar de Mundo Tenebroso sanos y salvos, Charlie Laird duerme como un bebé la noche entera. Puede decirse que por fin tiene una vida de ensueño. Sin embargo, el temor por que las cosas cambien vuelve: el herbolario de Charlotte, antes el local más concurrido del pueblo, se ha quedado de la noche a la mañana sin clientela. Al parecer, hasta sus compradores más leales viajan ahora hasta Orville Falls por sus menjurjes y potajes. Más raro aún es que allá, en aquel pueblo, nadie parece conciliar el sueño. Todo mundo da de tumbos por las colinas como un montón de zombis descerebrados. Oh, Charlie conoce bien esta situación. Significa una sola cosa: la vida se está complicando de nuevo.

You better keep the lights on! Charlie Laird has a very bad feeling. 1. There’s a NEW GIRL at school, and Charlie and his friends have DEFINITELY seen her before. 2. He’s been hearing strange noises after dark, which is NEVER a good sign. 3. The nightmares are back, and they’re WEIRDER THAN EVER. Not since he faced his fears has Charlie had so many bad dreams. Whenever he falls asleep, he finds himself in a Netherworld field, surrounded by a flock of CREEPY BLACK SHEEP. They''re not counting sheep. They refuse to jump. In fact, they don''t do much at all. EVEN EERIER, THOUGH, is that it’s not Charlie’s nightmare. Somehow he’s trapped in someone else’s bad dream. And he’s pretty sure the twins ICK and INK are responsible. Charlie and his friends thought they’d put the twins out of business, but it seems they didn’t quite finish the job. Now the WOOLLY NIGHTMARES are closing in, and INK has shown up at Cypress Creek Elementary! Charlie’s convinced that INK is up to NO GOOD. And if he’s right, it could be a very long time before anyone’s dreams are sweet again.

Charlie Laird žije snový život. Bydlí v tajemném zámečku s bránou do podsvěta, plného přátelských nočních můr. A navíc mu právě začínají letní prázdniny. Jenomže se nemůže zbavit pocitu, že se děje něco divného. Herbárium jeho nevlastní mámy bývalo jedním z nejrušnějších krámků v Cypřišovém Potoce. A najednou si její zákazníci jezdí pro bylinkové lektvary do vedlejšího městečka. Ještě horší je, že po ulicích toho městečka bloumají divné existence, které vypadají jako živí mrtví. Prý se tam už dlouho nikdo pořádně nevyspal. A Charlie ví ze všech nejlíp, co je to za hrůzu. Vypadá to, že se zase rýsuje pořádný malér...

Jason Segel hatte früher selbst schreckliche Albträume - genau wie Charlie. Und genau wie Charlie hat er irgendwann begriffen, dass uns unsere Ängste stark machen können, wenn wir uns ihnen stellen. Jason macht viele Sachen gerne, zum Beispiel: schauspielern, schreiben, musizieren oder Zeit mit Freunden verbringen. Wenn er nicht gerade Drehbücher schreibt oder Songs für Filme textet, ist er selbst auf der Leinwand zu sehen oder als Synchronsprecher zu hören. Vielleicht kennst Du ihn aus dem Kinofilm Die Muppets. Deine Eltern kennen ihn bestimmt aus einem seiner anderen Filme. Nightmares! - Die Schrecken der Nacht ist sein erstes Kinderbuch. Er hat es zusammen mit Kirsten Miller geschrieben.

El protagonista de esta novela es Charlie Lair, un chico que acaba de perder a su madre y a quien atormenta una serie de terribles pesadillas. La aparición de su madrastra Charlotte no hace sino perturbarlo aún más, sobre todo cuando esta extraña mujer se lo lleva junto con su padre y su hermano menor Jack a vivir a una tenebrosa mansión de color morado. Dicha construcción oculta muchos secretos y reserva terrores inimaginables para Charlie. No obstante, el chico logra afrontarlos sacando fuerzas de flaqueza y gracias a la ayuda de curiosos personajes. Éste es el primer libro de una prometedora trilogía de aventuras infantiles-juveniles. Segel... y Miller construyen un entretenido mundo fantástico de monstruos que asustan, chistes inocentes, héroes valientes y una trama cinematográfica que alcanza una conclusión satisfactoria, con la promesa de nuevas aventuras."
