00:00Welcome to Tales of Unusual, stories that remind us our deepest desires.

00:07Sometimes open doors we can never close again.

00:11Tonight's tale is about a lonely object, a curious mind, and the temptation of living inside your dreams forever.

00:20This is the story of the dream-sharing stone.

00:24So settle in, close your eyes if you dare, and listen closely.

00:28Some dreams should never be shared.

00:32Evelyn Gray was a dreamer, but not in the way people use the word to describe hopeful souls.

00:39Her dreams were vivid, almost too real.

00:43Wild places she visited every night to escape her dull job, an empty apartment.

00:50One evening, walking home past an old antique shop she'd never noticed before,

00:55something caught her eye, a small, smooth stone, dark as coal, sitting alone in the window.

01:02The sign next to it read, Stone of Shared Dreams, $5.

01:08Evelyn laughed at the absurdity, but her feet carried her inside.

01:13She paid the $5 and slipped the stone into her pocket, never guessing it would slip into her mind as well.

01:21That night, Evelyn held the stone in her hand, as she drifted to sleep.

01:27Her dream was clearer than ever.

01:29She stood in a golden meadow she'd never seen before, warm wind brushing her hair.

01:36But this time, she wasn't alone.

01:38A man was there, a stranger, yet somehow familiar.

01:43He introduced himself as Jonah.

01:45He said he'd been dreaming of this place for years, but now he could finally see her.

01:52They talked until the sun set, and when Evelyn woke, she found the stone still warm in her palm.

01:59She wondered, could someone really share a dream?

02:03The next night, she returned to sleep, with the stone under her pillow.

02:08Each night, Evelyn met Jonah again.

02:11The meadow stretched further, rivers appeared, forests bloomed under moonlight.

02:18Jonah told her stories of his waking life, how lonely he'd been, how he'd found the stone in a market years ago.

02:27Together, they shaped the dreamscape.

02:30Mountains rose when they wished, animals appeared, at a thought.

02:35Evelyn started going to bed earlier, sleeping longer.

02:39Her waking life blurred, work meetings forgotten, friends' calls unanswered.

02:46The real world felt dull, colorless, compared to the vivid paradise they built together every night.

02:53She wondered if she could stay there, forever.

02:56One night, Evelyn woke, gasping.

02:59She thought she heard a voice, not Jonah's, whispering,

03:03Wake up.

03:04At work, her boss asked if she was okay.

03:07She looked pale, distracted.

03:10Evelyn brushed it off.

03:11She needed sleep, but the dreams grew stranger.

03:15Jonah was different now, less gentle, more insistent that she stay longer each night.

03:21When Evelyn tried to leave the dream early, Jonah's eyes darkened.

03:27Don't go, he said, his voice echoing across the meadow.

03:31She woke with scratches on her arms, deep red lines like branches from the dream forest.

03:39That night, she hid the stone in a drawer, but when she closed her eyes, she felt it calling

03:45to her from the dark.

03:47Evelyn tried staying awake, coffee, pills, cold showers, but sleep is a hunter that always

03:55catches its prey.

03:56The next time she drifted off, the meadow was gone.

04:01Instead, she stood in an endless forest, shadows twisting around Jonah's shape.

04:07He smiled with too many teeth.

04:10Why did you try to leave me, Evelyn?

04:13She ran, but the forest bent around her, roots grabbing her feet.

04:18She felt the stone growing heavier in her hand, pulling her deeper into the dream.

04:24She screamed herself awake, only to find the stone was gone from the drawer, back under

04:31her pillow, warm and pulsing like a heartbeat.

04:35Exhausted and half mad, Evelyn returned to the antique shop, but it was gone.

04:41Where the building had stood was an empty lot, weeds choking cracked pavement.

04:47Back home, the stone waited for her on her bed, as if inviting her to lie down.

04:53That night, Evelyn gave in.

04:56She stepped into the dream for the last time.

05:00Jonah waited, arms open.

05:02Now, you never have to wake up, he whispered.

05:06The forest swallowed her, and in the real world, Evelyn slept on, unresponsive, her eyes flickering

05:14under closed lids.

05:15Doctors called it a coma.

05:18Some called it a curse.

05:19But in the dream, she never opened her eyes again.

05:24They say the dream-sharing stone still turns up from time to time, on dusty shop shelves,

05:31at garage sales, in forgotten boxes, in attics.

05:35A promise for those who hate their days and long for better nights.

05:40But remember, the price for living in your dreams is leaving your life behind.
