I’m what you could call a hoarder.

To me, I think some things can still have use. I sometimes go to a pawn shop to snag a few things.

I usually get a random thing that catches my eye. However, one day I came across my most recent purchase. A cool doll!

It resembled some dude with brown hair. Had some big hole in the chest. Seemed to have something resembling meat in there. I simply chalked it up to being some horror prop and purchased it.

It was the middle of the night on that same day when I heard some kind of clatter, so I investigated it.

I saw it fell over, I quickly placed it with the others on display. I then heard some buzzing noises near the prop. I soon noticed the smell. Smelt like stale meat.

I looked down to see a pile of blood where the doll fell. I then realized it was not a doll, but an actual corpse.

I was only partially right.

I then noticed there was a trail of the blood that led straight to my roommates bedroom. I slowly walked towards the door. I opened the door to find his mutilated corpse on the floor. There was blood everywhere.

I then looked at the prop and saw what appeared to be teeth in the chest hole retracting back into the flesh.

I was only partly right on my initial assumption.

It wasn’t some doll.

It wasn’t a corpse either.

It was something much worse.
