American scientists have made some fantastic discoveries on a phenomenon that has terrorized mankind for millennia and, which, to this day, has been classified simply as 'a bad dream.' Now it is finally known what this, the most awful psychic experience a person can have-- the nightmare-- actually is." (article published in Realidade magazine, February of 1970, with text by Edwin Diamond)

To illustrate the article on scientific advances in the field of psychology, Andujar photographed a doll, her cat Pipi and other belongings, manipulating the images, superimposing photos and applying filters.
