You're preparing dinner for the cast of Sesame Street, but when you open the oven hundreds of teeth spill out—and they're not even cooked properly! As they scamper out of reach, your high school English teacher shows up and climbs inside your fridge to make out with your stepdad, while Gordon Ramsay smashes his head through the window to disqualify you from Master Chef.

What does it all mean?

Josh Crowley and T. R. Appleton discuss nightmares and the nature of dreams, and create improvised horror stories inspired by details from the conversation.

If you have any nightmares or real-life scary experiences you'd like to see transformed into an improvised horror story, send them in to nightmares@exquisitegraveyard.com.
