Welcome!

Welcome to the Nightmare Arcade!

Who or what is the Nightmare Arcade? Let us introduce you! 

A musical project where a live band performs music that tells a story! 

The story begins with Johnny Reaper, the youngest heir of the Grim Reaper. Johnny was banished from the Underworld. His crime? For simply, wanting to follow his dreams of being a Rockstar, and not follow the plan his Father had laid out for him. 

Johnny Reaper's journey out of the Underworld was a turbulent one, but he still managed to acheive it. He found himself in the cemetery after, confused, yet free. He suddenly hears a voice in the distance...a young girl. Her name was Aimee...and she was not afraid of Johnny...at all. Destiny had brought them together at that very moment. Both of the young dreamers had a love of music!

Johnny soon resided at the Arcade cafe business of Aimee's Uncle. Aimee sometimes worked there with her cousin Aiden. Together, Johnny, Aimee, and Aiden would run the cafe every other day, But Johnny discovered after hours....the place was haunted. 

''Aimee, the cafe is haunted you know. Don't you feel that? Something is in those machines man... it's not right...the energies within...they are not of this realm...at all.....''~ Johnny Reaper.

Thus, the name Nightmare Arcade was coined to the cafe by Johnny himself! 

After adjusting to the land of the living and convincing enough people he was just a goth who REALLY like his Halloween costume, Johnny Reaper and Aimee decided to venture out to local music clubs so they could start their musical journey. There they met Candy Armstrong...who one stage, was a fantastic performer who was envied by many...but behind closed doors...was battling a serious battle with herself...could Johnny and Aimee help her?.....

Eventually, Johnny, Aimee, Candy, and Aiden all grew closer together, to embark on adventures to overcome obstacles and battle demons in the spirit realm...and the living realm. 

The Nightmare Arcade live band perform music based on the story of these characters, and we invite you into our realm, where music, art, dreams and more combine! 

''It's amazing how your heart can be, the leader of your destiny.''
