The Sleep Experiment

February 27, 2022 by Melanie Leave a Comment

I have read all the books from this author, and I’ve thoroughly enjoyed every single one, but this is the first that I’ve read in one sitting. I found myself getting emotionally attached to all the characters. The book is full of twists and turns and although I predicted the end it didn’t spoil the enjoyment of the book in any way. I think this book is suitable for readers of Stephen King, Dean Koontz and Bentley Little to name just a few. Buy it, you won’t be disappointed at all. – Amazon Review

The Sleep Experiment:
A scary psychological thriller by the new master of horror
(World’s Scariest Legends Book 2)

“SHOCKING…TERRIFYING”—Entertainment Weekly

From USA Today and #1 Amazon bestselling author Jeremy Bates comes the second book in the all-new WORLD’S SCARIEST LEGENDS series.

In 1954, at the start of the Cold War, the Soviet military offered four political prisoners their freedom if they participated in an experiment requiring them to remain awake for fourteen days while under the influence of a powerful stimulant gas. The prisoners ultimately reverted to murder, self-mutilation, and madness.

None survived.

In 2018, Dr. Roy Wallis, an esteemed psychology professor at UC Berkeley, is attempting to recreate the same experiment during the summer break in a soon-to-be demolished building on campus. He and two student assistants share an eight-hour rotational schedule to observe their young Australian test subjects around the clock.

 

What begins innocently enough, however, morphs into a nightmare beyond description that no one could have imagined—with, perhaps, the exception of Dr. Roy Wallis himself.
