Glass Nightmare (ガラスの夢魘, Garasu no Muma), is the latest creation by Ace Dismukes, set for release on February 3rd, 2028. Development began in June of 2024, with the plot undergoing numerous rewrites and changes over time. The story follows Meedou Precton, an apathetic man who has endured a traumatic life. Overwhelmed by grief and despair, he attempts to take his own life. Instead of dying, he finds himself trapped in a surreal nightmare, where he discovers he has the power to turn everything into glass. Accompanied by the enigmatic and comforting Mischievous Cracker–later revealed to be Nikki Hinata. A manga adaptation of the story is also planned to accompany the feature film.

Plot Synopsis:

As most of his family and friends die, the ever apathetic Meedou Precton has had a tough life. Closeted as a gay man, separated from his siblings, and with his parents dead and no one to love, he simply wanted to fade away. On March 6th, 1983, he takes a handful of pills and passes out, only to wake up in a nightmare. Within this dream, he embarks on a personal journey through the bizarre nightmare, accompanied and comforted by the abrasive yet caring Mischievous Cracker. Who is revealed to be Nikki Hinata

Cast:

While most of the cast is not named, there are four prominent characters, Meedou to be specific, along his family.

Meedou Precton:

Despite his cold, apathetic nature that often pushes others away, Meedou is deeply disturbed and distressed within himself. His hyperawareness of his "broken" existence consumes him, and the terrifying power to turn everything into glass—manifested within the dream—becomes a representation of his weaknesses, intensifying his suicidal thoughts and inner loathing.

Thrust into an ambiguous world, Meedou desperately searches for his identity, but its uncertainty only deepens his confusion and pain. His family, always at the forefront of his thoughts, becomes the source of his overwhelming grief; without them, he spirals into insanity, unable to cope. Enter Mischievous Cracker, a catalyst for the support Meedou never knew he needed and the key to unlocking his true self as a gay man. As he wakes from the dream, Meedou is able to feel free, though not without the burden of his trauma.

Akitada Precton:

Akitada was Meedou’s father and a strong mentor who guided him through life, always offering support and wisdom.

Yuki Precton:

Yuki was the nurturing figure in the family, particularly to the girls, and was Meedou’s favorite mother. She always offered comfort to him, but as time passed, Yuki began to struggle with alcoholism. Her drinking escalated into abusive behavior, causing a rift in their within the family relationship. Meedou, unable to cope with the emotional turmoil, left her along with his siblings. Her death in a car crash left Meedou and his siblings profoundly affected. This loss played a significant role in his emotional breakdown and subsequent suicide attempt.

Ren Precton:

Ren was the third sibling to die from HIV and was the older brother of Meedou and Amy. He was protective and masucline and always pushed Meedou to be a stronger sibling similar to Akitada. Most of his apathy came from Ren as Ren always mentored and helped Meedou to control his emotions in difficult situations. As a result of his death, Meedou became more apathetic.

Mischievous Cracker/Nikki Hinata:

As enigmatic as he was, he was the sole manifestation of Meedou's desires. Nikki Hinata was comforting, ideal, encouraging, and always cared for Meedou on his down ends. Of course Meedou's social stigma towards others learned by Ren and his father was one thing he couldn't get rid of and at first, was the first red flag to Mischievous Cracker's and Meedou's relationship.
