"I've got a bad feeling about this place," Jeff muttered, more to himself than to his wife and child. But Sarah was too excited to pay him any mind.
"Oh Jeff, don't be such a wet blanket!" she chided. "It's perfect - just like the house I dreamed of as a little girl. And at such a great price too! We'd be crazy not to snatch it up."
Eight-year-old Julie bounced up and down in the backseat. "I can't wait to explore! Maybe I'll find secret passageways and haunted towers and everything!"
Jeff forced a smile, not wanting to dampen their enthusiasm. But he couldn't shake his unease, perhaps stemming from the unsettling rumors about the home's previous occupants that had spread like wildfire through their new town...
It took several days to get all their belongings unpacked and situated in the cavernous, dimly lit rooms of the house. On the final day of moving in, Jeff hefted the last boxed up in the attic, coughing at the musty smell and clouds of dust. As he slit open the box to deposit its contents, Sarah suddenly shrieked from somewhere below.
"Jeff! Get down here, quickly!"
Heart pounding, Jeff raced downstairs to the living room where Sarah stood, white-faced and trembling, a revolting porcelain doll clutched in her hands. It was a grotesque thing, with stringy white hair, a pale face, and glowing red eyes that seemed to stare in unblinking malice. Also, the dolls mouth had what looked like fresh blood on its mouth and on parts of her victorian dress and long finger nails. She just thought that it was paint but still sent shivers down her spine thinking what if?
"Oh my god, Jeff, I found this in one of the boxes from the attic. It's horrifying! We have to get rid of it immediately."
Jeff felt a prickle of fear snake down his spine as he looked at the doll. There was something...unnatural about it. Deeply unsettling, like a vial of poison dressed up as a child's plaything.
