Nightmare Dolly

This is a concept I drew for a truly horrific and very disturbing demon from a recent short horror story I have written titled "the Little Girl And Her Dollies". I was inspired by the Victorian era/style and how creepy some aspects of it were and this idea poped into my head, thats how this nightmare was born. If you have not already lost the will to go to sleep tonight, I guarantee you will never be the same again after you read the story behind this concept and discover its dark and twisted secret...

It was around 2am that stormy night driving down the long stretch of road surrounded by woods. I was very tired and I no idea where I actually was, but I knew that this road would eventually lead to the highway after asking a few locals at a gas station awhile back. I couldn't hardly see in front of me as the torrential rain pounded my windshield blurring my vision. Out of nowhere I see something jump right in front of the car causing me to swerve out of control and I crashed into a thick tree nearby. My airbags must of malfunctioned as my head slammed into the steering wheel with tremendous force and I was knocked out cold. After some time passed I woke up and my car was wreaked, I tried dialing emergency services but my phone had no reception, I found it strange because not to long ago my service seemed fine, my head was throbbing and it was pretty painful.I waited a while to see if anyone  would drive by and  possibly could help me, but the road was empty that night as I became soaked by the rain. Suddenly a light caught my eye deep in the woods so I began to head toward it thinking maybe someone lives around here might be able to help me.

After a trekking awhile through the dark and eerie woods I eventually made it to the source of the light, I looked in awe as there was a large mansion of some sorts in front of me. It had a dated style of architecture like that of the Victorian era and I was eager to get inside and out of the rain. I knocked on the front door a couple of times and a little girl dressed in an vintage sleeping gown answered the door. I asked her if her parents where home, she insisted for me to come in but I didn't really feel comfortable being in this house alone with someone elses child, but she insisted it would be fine, that her parents were coming back very soon and they were nice folk as well as very welcoming to visitors. So I waited in the den observing all the paintings and extravagant patterns that lined this house, there were no magazines to read to pass time but many very old books and pamphlets scattered around, it was like history has left this place untouched for many years. While glancing around the room a noticed these three pictures of babies, something was very disturbing about the images there was an eerie lifeless quality about the babies faces. I became a little impatient and called for the girl, strangely and suddenly she appeared from right behind me as if she had been hiding there the whole time.

I asked her if there was a phone I can use and she nodded yes, she then tugged on my arm with a desperate look on her face as she asked me if I wanted to see her dollies first. I personally wanted to get to a phone so I can get out of here but she kept begging and insisting, so I agreed to go with her to see her dollies. She ran ahead of me upstairs very excitedly and I tried to keep up with her pace, eventually I ended up in a strange large room. Something was off about this room, the second I walked in I was bombarded by a smell similar to the one you would smell at a funeral, or even possibly the smell of death. The doors seemed to close and lock themselves behind me and I became a little nervous, there stood the little girl in front of a pair of giant curtains. Before I could say a word she put her finger on her lips and smiled whispering "Shhhhh.... I am going to wake up my dollies, I can't wait for you to meet them mister".I thought to myself "Wake up  dolls???", something didn't feel right,I played with the door a bit but somehow it was locked tight.

Suddenly I started to hallucinate and see these disturbing images in black n white,I first saw an older man holding a baby doll, handing it to a little girl she plays with it for a few seconds but then throws away the doll in a tantrum. Again I see the little girl holding what look to be the lifeless body of a baby, then a scene of the little girl smiling and dancing, playing with the lifeless body of the baby as if it was a toy. Following that the images got progressively more disturbing, it then flashed to a room with shelves lined full of the corpses of babies dressed up like dolls and even some actual dolls mixed with the body parts of young children. Then it showed the image of a outside a window showing an angry mob of people with torches as they began to throw them through the window, then flashing to images of the little girl running around a room in flames as the mansion burned down, Lastly then showing the image of the older man from the earlier images at the gallows with her mouth hanging open with a haunting expression on her face.Suddenly I snapped back in to reality, the curtains slowly open as I heard the cries of three infants coming from darkness, I couldn't believe my eye as something of a truly horrific nature stepped into view. It was hard to compose myself as I began to shutter in fear, profusely vomiting as a sickening essence filled the air, piercing cries filled my ears driving me into insanity. I fell to the floor as the monster tried to assault me with its sharp and grisly hands as I swiftly crept past the monster into the darkness of the backroom. I panicked as I couldn't see my way around the dark room, I then started to feel little hands gripping me from all around, I swiftly took out my cellphone and flashed it around,I shouted and screamed in horror as I was surrounded by the dressed corpses of babies and grotesque dolls dripping black blood. They began to overcome me in great numbers. I struggled with them but it was hopeless....the last thing I saw was the severely burned face of the little girl convulsing and cackling as everything faded to black....
