Nightmare Academy by Frank Peretti is the second in The Veritas Project about the Springfields.

In this book, the family has been asked to investigate the disappearance of runaways after a missing child is found out of his mind. The only understandable thing he can say is Nightmare Academy. When the boy dies mysteriously in the hospital, the Springfields are called in to see what they can find out. While posing as runaways, Elijah and Elisha are recruited for a “special” school and wake up in a strange place.

At the Knight-Moore Academy they soon learn nothing is really as it seems: up is down, there is no right or wrong, no moral compass, and they learn that evil does exist. They are cut off from their parents or any help, and in a world where there are no rules or expectations they learn how quickly things can get out of hand. They must rely on their faith to get them through this assignment and safely back to their parents
