(Silver Spring, Md.) - From monsters hiding in the closet to the boogeyman lurking in nearby shadows, evil can interrupt even the sweetest of dreams. But what happens when a bad dream is actually a waking nightmare? Investigation Discovery's (ID) new series YOUR WORST NIGHTMARE delivers true, spine-tingling crimes that take viewers on a ride of twists and turns, complete with jump-out-of-their-seats moments and chilling conclusions. Premiering Wednesday, October 22 at 10/9c, YOUR WORST NIGHTMARE uses classic suspense film techniques to follow some of the creepiest, most harrowing crimes ever committed, as these victims' darkest dreams become unfathomable realities.

In the premiere episode airing October 22 at 10/9c, Sandy Jeffers is a beloved, hard-working graduate student just days away from completing her master's degree in forensic anthropology.
