This "chapter" is just an info bit about the 4 main characters of Nightmare. I've never seen any info chapters in any other story that contained OCs and that really bothered me. You don't have to read it and just skip ahead to the real first chapter and learn about the characters through the story. I do have pictures for all of the characters, but I don't think FanFiction supports them in their stories, however. If you want to see them, you can go to my Quizilla account, BroughtToLife, and read see their pictures there in Nightmare's Info.

Have I bored you enough, yet? Well, you can either read this or go on ahead to read the first chapter. It's your choice. Choose wisely though… Just kidding.
