Conor has been having nightmares. Or rather, THE nightmare. It jolts him awake every night seven minutes after midnight ever since his mother got sick. Tonight, Conor wakes up to a different nightmare. The ancient Yew Tree in his yard has come to life and demands to be heard. This monster informs Conor that he will tell him three stories, one a night, and all true. After that, Conor must tell his. A Monster Calls is a stunning spectacle that reckons with love, loss, and the stories we tell to make sense of the unimaginable.
