Brainstorming - Three Major Ideas
Idea 1
man hallucinates a scary creature, must journey to the other side of the house to take meds, sleeps, and wakes up with the creature. The End. Pills don't make the monster go away, you just can't see it anymore.

Idea 1
Man hallucinates a scary creature after forgetting to take medication, must journey to the other side of the house to take the forgotten meds, goes to sleep after achieving his goal, only to wake up and still see the creature.
