The Nightmare Factory

The Nightmare Factory

By L. A. Jones

The Nightmare Factory is a book about Andy and his sister who get some money from their Mum and so they go to the street markets. When Andrew and Poppy get there, a Thug TRIES to take Poppy’s twenty-dollar note but Andy bravely tells him to go away. So the Thug comes and TRIES to strangle him, but (read this in slow motion) Andy is in slow motion plus strength super power and pushed the Thug who goes flying through the air and rolls his ankle wow! (Also stop reading slow motion now).

When a woman named Tiffany Grey comes and takes Andy and his sister to her stall, she wants Andy to meet someone, who? The person Tiffany wanted Andy to meet was an odd man called Oran. Oran gives Andy and Poppy dream catchers and tells them to hang them above their beds, but they DIDN’T!?!? At night time, Andy and Poppy haven’t hung their dream catcher’s up, then in their sleep they are kidnapped by a strange, awful, creature called Vesuvius, this creature is the leader of the nightmare factory.

The Nightmare factory is, well, a Nightmare factory, children are taken out of their dreams to the Nightmare factory. When this happens the children are put into special machines to extract their worst fears, so then this is how nightmares are made.

When Andrew and Poppy are taken to the Nightmare factory they wake up in a strange room were they get a strange hole in their neck, what does this do? After that Andy and Poppy are taken to a cafeteria like place where they meet a boy called Dan. Dan has only two more weeks to live; the Nightmare factory needs children under the age of 16, because the child over the age of 16’s fear is not powerful enough.  On the 16^th birthday they put the child in the Mountain of Doom where they will get killed.

The evil Vesuvius is not the only one who runs the Nightmare factory; there are these evil, black, bony, caped, horrifying, creatures called Shadowmares! They are the minions of Vesuvius and spread the nightmares they produce.

I liked book because it was exciting and it had many twists. I liked the imagination in it because there was a lot of unusual things and cool places – including the nightmare factory.

This book is a bit violent so you should decide if you want a bit of fright or not, in other words I recommend this book for people who like excitement!

I give the Nightmare factory a three stars because it could have bee a bit longer which would have been great! Have a good day!
