Buddy Lewek has spent most of his life dreaming of escaping the slums of 1939 New York City. Counting pennies to survive, it doesn't seem likely that Buddy's dreams of becoming an artist will ever be realised, but that all changes when he meets Mr. Joey Drew, the eccentric owner of an animation studio.Mr. D takes Buddy under his wing as an apprentice, and Buddy couldn't be happiermaybe, as Mr. D says, dreams do come true. But not everything at the studio is as picture-perfect as it seems...Something is going bump at night in the studio, something that leaves behind trails of thick, dark ink. Buddy is determined to find out just what is tormenting the studio after-hours, even if it means tracking the trail to Mr. D himself.
Praise for Dreams Come to Life:
"This well-written, diverse horror novel will primarily appeal to fans of the Bendy and the Ink
Machine video game franchise." -- Booklist
Adrienne Kress is a Toronto-born actor and writer. Her books include the award-winning and internationally published novels Alex and the Ironic Gentleman, Timothy and the Dragon's Gate, and Hatter Madigan: Ghost in the H.A.T.B.O.X. (with bestselling author Frank Beddor), as well as the steampunk novel The Friday Society and the gothic Outcast. She is also the author of the quirky three-book series The Explorers. Adrienne's first foray into writing horror came with her work on the Bendy and the Ink Machine novels, but as an actor she has had the pleasure of being creepy in such horror films as Devil's Mile and Wolves. And she took great pleasure in getting to haunt teenagers in SyFy's Neverknock. Find her at AdrienneKress.com and on Twitter/Instagram @AdrienneKress.
