The patient finished his story, immobilized by thick leather restraints that shackled his wrists and ankles to the hospital bed. "That was twenty-two years ago, and I've been here ever since. The police said that my brother must have snuck into my room to scare me. I tried to tell them what had really happened—that the doll was alive, but no one would believe me. They said that I killed him, but it was the doll... it was the doll, and he's coming for me." The doctor stepped closer to examine a jagged series of scars lining the patient's arms and face, then jotted some notes on his chart. "They restrained me because they think I did this to myself, but it was the doll, and he's coming back tonight. You've got to believe me. You've got to get me out of here," his voice grew more excited. "They stabbed me with needles and drugged me and left me in this padded cell, alone in bleak darkness, with no way to defend myself." He struggled in vain against his bonds as the two doctors turned to leave. "Don't leave me here like this! Please," he begged, "don't leave me here with him!" But his cries fell upon unsympathetic ears as the heavy steel door slammed shut, leaving him alone in the solitude of his dark cell.

As the distant thunder erupted, lightning illuminated the dim corners of the room. Tears welled in his eyes as he heard the sound of jingling bells. The lightning flickered to reveal a small figure that had stepped forward from the shadows, then the room was engulfed in cruel darkness once more.
