Black Coma

A Black Coma is a fatal sleep that affected Will in the episode "Sleep Paralysis" and the beginning of "Shadows". Ryan explains it to the Plumber and tells him almost everything he needs to know about this sleep.

Everything that happens in a Black Coma is based off of the victim's greatest fears and most hated life experiences. Ryan gave an example of a little girl dreaming of running from spiders from her closet off a cliff. The Black Coma is fatal, but if the victim doesn't die during the sleep, they wake up feeling dizzy and slow to respond, walk, speak, anything in general.

There is no known cure for the Black Coma, and the victim can be infected within a range of a few minutes to almost an entire day. The victim simply survives this coma after waking up. The victim cannot control their dream except for themselves, and not being able to decide when to wake up.
