When college student Kelsey Atkins unexpectedly begins to leap into the bodies of other people during her bouts of narcolepsy, she becomes a target in the deadly world of military espionage.
Kelsey has never been very remarkable. Things don’t get any easier when her persistent teenage lethargy escalates into full blown narcolepsy. Her dreams are always different but have a recurring theme; being trapped in someone else’s body. With the help of her only friend Aidan, she investigates what is happening to her only to learn that she is actually commandeering the bodies of real people across the globe. Kelsey’s ability is something the military wants to use as part of a covert operation turning people that can astral project into assassins. Operation lead, Colonel Slater sends Miles an agent, out to bring Kelsey in and begin testing on her. It isn’t long before Kelsey is on the run fighting to stay alive and to stay awake.
Narcoleap Producer (Kate Green) on Season 2… “In season 2 there’s a lot of backstory we’ll be looking at from unanswered questions, as to, how did this military operation begin? Our character Miles who has a bit of a love interest with Kelsey Atkins; we’re going to explore that more. Her best friend Aidan is involved in a bit of a love triangle that we’ll be exploring a bit more and also understand how Miles got involved with this operation. I don’t know if it’s a spoiler or not but Cameron Bancroft plays Kelsey’s dad. He shows up at the end as the director of this project. We’re going to be explaining a little bit about him and what happened between his and Kelsey’s relationship.”
