Get ready to cross into the dream realm with The Sandman‘s Morpheus — aka Dream — when the series returns in 2025.

Netflix shared a behind-the-scenes featurette to tease season 2 of Sandman during its Geeked Week fan event on Thursday, and CNET was on hand to capture the news. Peaceful sleep and blissful dreams won’t be the order of the day, as new characters are set to roll in with nightmarish deeds.

An image is circulating with the claim on Facebook, allegedly from the film Leave the World Behind, showing a figure sat on a bed looking through a window at the ruins of the bridge.
