Little Nightmares II: Tales from the Dark Side
An Animated Digital Comic Experience

Step into the distorted shadows of the Little Nightmares universe with Tales from the Dark Side, a hauntingly beautiful animated digital comic that expands the franchise’s eerie mythology through six original, standalone stories. Narrated through a surreal fusion of hand-crafted illustrations, fluid animation, and chilling sound design, this immersive experience plunges you deeper into the world where nightmares breathe, and innocence is a fragile illusion.

Each tale explores a different facet of the franchise’s twisted atmosphere—where fear is not just felt, but lived. From forgotten corridors of a sentient school to the hungry depths beneath a floating hotel, these stories unfold like fever dreams, each revealing hidden truths about the world, its inhabitants, and the unseen forces that whisper from the dark.

1. The Hollow Choir
In a forgotten music hall where every note carries a scream, a porcelain doll sings lullabies to children who never sleep. But when the walls begin to bleed melody, the doll must choose: silence, or become part of the song.

2. The Gatekeeper’s Dream
A boy with a cracked face guards a door that shouldn’t exist. Every night, he dreams of what lies beyond—only to wake and find the world has changed again. Is he keeping the nightmare out… or feeding it?

3. The Teeth in the Wall
An old woman tends to a house that grows teeth when the moon is full. Her daughter vanished years ago, and now the walls whisper her name. What happens when the house remembers?

4. The Feast of Broken Things
A grotesque banquet is set for one. Guests arrive not in flesh, but in fragments—arms, eyes, laughter trapped in jars. When a small hand reaches for the last dish, who is truly being served?

5. The Boy Who Carried the Sky
A child walks through a city of upside-down towers, carrying the sky on his back. As he stumbles through endless staircases, he hears voices from below—begging to be lifted up… or pulled down.

6. The Mirror That Watches Back
A girl stares into a mirror that shows not her face, but her worst fear. At first, it's just a shadow. Then it starts to blink. Then it says her name.
