Little Nightmares continues to expand beyond video games. Several other projects have been announced during Little Nightmares Showcase on June 24, spanning a variety of media such as comic books, podcasts and more.

The Sounds of Nightmares

The Sounds of Nightmares, the podcast series that has surpassed 2 million listens, will receive a second season which is currently being written.

Little Nightmares: Descent to Nowhere

Little Nightmares: Descent to Nowhere, the comic book series published by Titan Comics will be releasing the first issue in October 2025. The comic follows two parallel stories. Hush, a timid mute girl wakes up in a jail cell. Desperate to escape, she befriends another prisoner, Mono, who understands this world far better than her, they will have to find a way out of a very dark Dungeon.

Elsewhere, Myra is a detective exhausted by life who meets someone who reignites her will to make a difference. They resume investigating unresolved cases of children vanishing year after year without a trace.

The comic book series will be published in English and will be available for pre-purchase starting in July at your local comic bookstore and worldwide on Titan’s website.

Little Nightmares: The Lonely Ones

Little Nightmares: The Lonely Ones, the young adult horror novel written by E.C. Myers and published by Scholastic will be out in September 2025.

It follows Ruse, a young child, who awakens in an unfamiliar, shaking room with two other kids she doesn't know—a small girl with a frayed rope dangling from her neck and a starved-looking boy wearing a tattered mask over his mouth and nose. She is in a nightmarish carnival and knows one thing: it's not safe, and she needs to flee.

Will she be able to make it out? Will her companions of misfortune reveal themselves to be friends or enemies?

As a final surprise, a teaser for a stop motion project developed in collaboration with the studio Taller del Chucho has been shown with more information to be unveiled later.
