Write a short story about a scary puppet. (courtesy of PumpkinOfGlory)

Puppet.

Matted red stained hair

An innocent gaze

A broken puppet wanders the halls of the mansion

A mischievous spirit haunting it.

Are those footsteps?

Walking closer with a sinister grin

Laughter echoed by the walls.

Tap tap tap.

Boo!

You have a pretty face~

Why is it so scared?

Aw...don’t be that way!

Or I’ll carve a smile into that one as well~

No no!

Don’t leave

I’ll be all lonely

Stop running away

Or I’ll make you part of my collection too~

Yes~

Come play with me

You have to go?

So soon!

I can’t have you leaving yet...

Ah!

I have an idea!

Come~

This way we can keep playing together forever!

A lonely puppet wanders the halls

Picking off humans one by one

Slowly adding them to its collection.

Come!

You shall be my new playmate

And my new victim~
