Nightmare Dolly

    A moment of static... A man grabbing a woman's hand is running down a decorative old victorian style hallway of the mansion. The woman appears to be one of the staff, Stacy who was working in the mansion at the time, and the man is Joshua a third year college student. An animatronic doll with four extra limbs blocks their way as Stacy panics and drops to the ground. Joshua rushes into the animatronic which bites into his shoulder before he throws it off to the ground, it struggles to stand as Joshua smashes it repeatedly with a nearby chair. Stacy regains her composure and Joshua grabs her as they continue. They yell and scream at a computer generated voice of a little girl echoing throughout the hallway, supposedly programmed to guide them to the exit. A hologram of the girl appears and gestures them to follow, Stacy and Johnathan have a debate of some sort and agree to follow the hologram as the unsettling noises of the animatronic dolls are heard closebye in the opposite direction. They find themselves in a dimly lit room which locks them in, they try to break through the door but their attention is caught by an old film projector screening on the wall. The grainy film shows disturbing images in black n white, first it shows 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. The screen flashes then showing the little girl holding what looks to be the lifeless body of a baby, little girl smiling and dancing, playing with the lifeless body of the baby as if it was a toy. Following that the images get progressively more disturbing as Stacy and Johnathan cringe at the imagery. It flashes 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 flashes the image of outside a window showing an angry mob of people with torches, then flashing to images of the little girl running around a room in flames as the mansion burns. Last are the images of the older man from the earlier images at the gallows with his mouth hanging open, a haunting expression frozen on his face.

    With an ear piercing scream that startles Stacy and Johnathan the light turns bright and the door leading to another room opens, they proceed cautiously. In the next room in front of them a giant curtain blocks the otherside of the quiet room, all that can be heard is the nervous breaths of the two. Suddenly the curtains slowly opens revealing a four headed large animatronic victorian doll nightmare. Stacy loses all composure and hides behind Johnathan who is completely bewildered and terrified. The animatronic nightmare fidgets and comes to life. Stacy panics and shoves the distraught Johnathan in front of it. The terrifying machine extends its scythe-like arm and with three quick and brutal slashes through Johnathan's midsection, cuts him in half... Bloods sprays onto the terrified Stacy who dashes into the next part of the room. The tape is pitch black and the sound is distorted as it picks up faint screams of Stacy. The full room suddenly lights up after a few minutes and the tape reveals Stacy becoming overwhelmed by an army of smaller animatronic dolls who eventually tear her apart, the tape then cuts off... The authorities who had to view this tape struggled to keep their composure witnessing all the horrors of what occurred in the mansion.

    Walter and Johnathan made no effort to hide themselves and where easily apprehended. In the courtroom when asked why, they explained it as a sort of notoriety stunt. Also that the world has gotten to a point where nothing surprised anyone anymore, nothing scared anyone anymore, the horror industry was unoriginal and dead, they just wanted to give the customers the real deal of what they seek. Almost envious of the group they sent to their deaths as they where 'lucky enough' to be able to experience the thrill of a fictional horror story made real with the days technology...
