Great story. The last line was haunting. Nice work. Keep writing!

Good luck with writing, this story, and life. Have a lovely day and a wonderful summer.

Yeah, I thought it was kinda funny, but I could see how this would really freak a child after. Nice job. Short and to the point.

I had a lot of bad nights as a child. This also reminds me of Robert the doll. They have clips of him on youtube. Great story, bring back memories.

This is nice. Loved it.

I remember when I was a kid someone left a huge Chucky doll in my room, when I woke in the middle of the night I was so freaked out that I grabbed it, when down to the basement and threw it into the furnace, eat that Chucky.

I liked the story, kids imaginations mixed with the unknown and the dark is a crazy combination, especially when the stuffed animals really are coming to life, sheesh, what a predicament.

I think it would be really interesting if the girl really was insane, maybe plagued with a horrible case of schizophrenia, and she actually was the one who killed her parents, believing that it was murderous stuffed animals come to life and not her. But the twist is that the reader doesn't actually know that she has schizophrenia until the end, throughout the whole story being led to believe that these stuffed animals are the killers.

But that's just me. Good story, keep writing.

Peace.

Very well written. I really enjoyed this story and how you took something usually seen as good and turned it into something evil.

Great story, I liked the twists at the end! You'er an awesome writer!

I think this story was more comical than horrifying.

Toys, dolls, stuffed animals, figurines coming to life; it's been done before, and as far as suspense, it just doesn't accomplish what it's meant to. As far as humor, it can be funny.

The only thing that I can really see as being scary for a stuffed animal, is if someone got a stuffed animal, the same one, in the mail or something right before someone killed them. That'd be interesting.

lol, I hate to say it but this story came off as kind of funny/scary, very similar to "Child's Play." It seems as if it's supposed to be creepy and ridiculous at the same time (I mean, it's a living teddy bear :D). But I get the sentiment - fear of the dark, overactive imagination... very realistic. I used to imagine the same kind of things actually happened when I was little (I still do sometimes :D). Anyway, it's pretty well-written if a little rushed. Keep it up. ;)

Creepy! Love the idea.

I would've liked you to expand on this a little, though, because the ending seemed too rushed for me. Maybe you can incorporate some of the narrator's feelings and memories. When did he/she first start noticing that the stuffed toys moved around? More description would be good, too, I think.

Incorporate some of the narrator's thoughts. What was he/she thinking when he/she heard the door opening and closing? Was the narrator's heart racing, or were they trying to convince themselves that all of it was in their head?

I'd like you explain 'living a ghosts existence with only half a soul' more. What's that like? What kind of difference does that make? Also, why would there be a teddy bear in the room if the narrator is now supposedly scarred for life? Is this some kind of therapy, does the narrator actually want the toy there, or does the teddy bear 'sneak in'?

Just a few thoughts. =P
