Daydream Nightmare is a series of books by Tropers/{{Astriferous}}, that started as a song comic for a school project in March 2012, named [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KlhnKEARmII "Pesadilla"/"Nightmare"]]. At that time the story itself was called ''The Dream Catchers'', where a group of teenagers who have lucid dreams, use that ability to fight nightmares.

Later, on October 2012, while planning Literature/SuperFilete's sequel, ''30 in Tumblr'', the author was listening to Music/MyChemicalRomance's "Teenagers". And so, the concept for ''De Padres, Libertinaje y Sangre'' (also shortened to [[FunWithAcronyms [=DePaLiZa=]]]) was born. This story had a different plot, which at the time was not related to ''The Dream Catchers''. It tells the stories of several youngsters around the world, trying to survive in the world, since a mass malfunction of an apparatus that all people older than 20 wore happened and provoked their instant deaths. Soleil, which in reality are multiple AI units, will try to adjust the status quo back to normal, with potential disastrous and deadly results. The link between [=DePaLiZa=] and the now called Dreamcatchers was established though [[CharacterOverlap a character that lives through both of these events, and with them, the timeline for both of them.]]

The first draft of the book was done during UsefulNotes/NaNoWriMo [[http://nanowrimo.org/participants/amy-serket-kazz/novels/daydream-nightmare 2014]] (being this the author's first [=NaNo=] to ever reach over the goal word count), and an additional part, ''Living (The) Nightmare'', was made as a wrap up of the aforementioned parts. The book is currently being revised and rewritten.

Another TimeSkip, and in ''Sunset Selves'', a man could finally leave a laboratory that has been locked since he volunteered for an experiment, and he finds some friends that tell him what has been going on outside, that is, if he can clear his mind.

* AfterTheEnd: ''Living (The) Nightmare'' and ''The Volt Dimensions''. Subverted with ''Sunset Selves'', as most of the humanity seems restored after about 10 years since the Worldwide Decay happened.

* CharacterOverlap: [[spoiler:Hitomi]] in ''[=DePaLiZa=]''. Also Nicolás has a small cameo in ''Sunset Selves''.

** The Dreamers,with Mexican Kamikaze and Dennise, Italian Imelda, Argentinian Nicolás and Japanese Hitomi. Later expanded in ''Living (The) Nightmare'' with [[spoiler:Russian Olinka and German Gherard.]]

* MythArc: The Worldwide Decay; before (''Dreamcatchers''), during (''[=DePaLiZa=]'') and after it (''Living (The) Nightmare'',''Volt Dimensions'' and ''Sunset Selves'').

* CunningLinguist: Kamikaze, by influence of his father.
* DreamLand: Composed of a long hall with doors taking to other people’s dreams. Only their owners [[spoiler:and Hitomi]] can open them.

* MustBeInvited: A not so supernatural variant. The owner of a dream must allow another Dreamer to enter their dream[[spoiler:, unless you're Hitomi and can enter any door without restrictions]].

* TheFashionista: Karin is the daughter of a children's fashion designer, and also one of her models.

* RidiculouslyHumanRobots: [[spoiler:Ifrit’s physical form, other than being ''human shaped'' is barely convincing, hence why he covers his face and body in several layers of cloth. His voice, however, can totally pass by a human’s.]]
* SocialMediaBeforeReason: Any youngster that used the [=YoGen=] platform but doesn’t make it to the end of the story.

* DefrostingIceQueen: Downplayed for Olinka. She’s becomes progressively softer to fellow Dreamers, but she's still as merciless at fighting as ever.
* DreamWeaver: It’s revealed that [[spoiler:Olinka]] was this. However, she could only do it while being asleep herself.

* SleptThroughTheApocalypse: [[spoiler:Most of the Dreamers. More like put into a comma, really]].

* DeathByOriginStory: Remember how [[spoiler:Paige]] from [=DePaLiZa=] blew up? And how her best friend who played the ukulele [[WhatHappenedToTheMouse was never seen again]]? [[AndThatLittleGirlWasMe That little girl was]] [[spoiler:Lily]].

* FreudianTrio: This, plus the ''Daydream Nightmare'' title formula, is what composed the title of this series. Likewise, one of the placeholder titles was “Radioactive Superego”, but it was changed since Rhode is the ego, and [[ArtifactTitle there is nothing radioactive in the plot at all.]]

* HostageVideo: The SequelHook and trailers for season 2 reveal the existence of a VHS tape showing [[spoiler:a broken Lily in a hospital robe begging Rhode to rescue her.]]
* ModernStasis: Halfway 21st century, and there are no major changes to architecture, because all buildings were reconstructed after the Worldwide Decay.
* PhlebotinumRebel: Rhode, although most prominently starting from the second season.

* ThroughTheEyesOfMadness: While Rhode is acting as the protagonist, expect strings of words, {{Hallucinations}}, KuleshovEffect shots or [[HearingVoices voices]] that don’t have an owner. MindScrew and ParanoiaFuel all-around.

* UnreliableNarrator: May, and Lily in a lesser degree.

* DefrostingIceQueen:Downplayed for Olinka.She’s becomes progressively softer to fellow Dreamers,but she's still as merciless at fighting as ever.

* DoNotCallMePaul:Justified for Rhode.Calling him by his name,Alphonse,triggers him.
* ElaborateUndergroundBase:The (for now) unnamed research facility.
* FreudianTrio:This,plus the ‘’Daydream Nightmare’’ title formula,is what composed the title of this series.Likewise,one of the placeholder titles was “Radioactive Superego”,but it was changed since Rhode is the ego,and [[ArtifactTitle there is nothing radioactive in the plot at all.]]
** TheKirk:Rhode.
** TheSpock:May.
** TheMcCoy:Lily.
* HostageVideo:The SequelHook and trailers for season 2 reveal the existence of a VHS tape showing [[spoiler:a broken Lily in a hospital robe begging Rhode to rescue her.]]
