The Sandman’s Pharmacy: S01 E00 Pilot

(also known as “The Sandman’s Aliens and Daemons”)

There is a space in-between space and time—it is beyond the physical dimension you see. This space, however dark and lonesome it may appear, is packed with life. Within it, there is a pharmacy. Yes, a pharmacy. This pharmacy is for the alien and the aethereal—the unseen entities residing inside our dimension and outside of it.

This pharmacy is a special one because it is run by the Sandman.

By day, the Sandman cures interspecies sleep problems of all kinds, and takes dream requests from his otherworldly patients—because every entity sleeps, but not all of them sleep well. He does not do this alone, however. He is assisted by his three employees: a pure human clone, an ancient Sumerian demon, and a bodiless human soul. His employees explore the physical dimension together on behalf of the Sandman, exploring foreign planets and species looking for better sleep medicines and cures.

By night, the Sandman explores the human-group-consciousness. He does this by manifesting himself inside of the pleasant dreams that he creates for them. Hiding as a background dream character, and sometimes engaging with the individual human mind directly, he gets to know humanity—all in the hopes that one day he will gift humanity with the perfect dream.
