Synopsis: Arisugawa Arisu (Kubota Masataka) is set to have a conversation with Shirafuse Masato (Takashima Masanobu), the author who gained popularity with the hit horror novel Nightmare Rising, due to overtures from his editor Katagiri Mitsuo (Emoto Tokio). Arisu is told something strange. There is a room of nightmares at Shirafuse’s home called Umemori-sou in a remote part of Kyoto, and any person sleeping in it will definitely have a bad dream. Shirafuse shows a strong interest in Arisu’s buddy Himura Hideo (Saito Takumi) and invites the two of them to his home.

After having dinner with Shirafuse and his editor Ezawa Hatoko (Yamamoto Maika) at a French-style inn nearby, Himura and Arisu stay at the room of nightmares. That night, the road is cut off after lightning strikes down a tree and the whole area including Umemori-sou becomes an isolated island. The next morning, a shocking case is discovered. The dead body of a woman is found in a vacant house. This woman is Okita Yoriko (Matsunaga Hiroko).
