There is something deeply unsettling about being watched by eyes that cannot blink. Not because they move, nor because they follow you. But because no matter where you stand, you can never shake the feeling that you've interrupted something that was already watching. There are storied that fade with time, and there are some that refuse to be forgotten. This part is one of them, and it started with an old manor hidden beyond the trees, an elderly couple who loved too deeply, and a porcelain doll that never seemed to gather dust. Seasons came and went, yet the doll remained exactly as it was-silent, immaculate, and forever waiting. People in the village no longer questioned the stories surrounding the old manor... and whenever someone asked what lay beyond the iron fence, the answer was always the same. "Nothing worth finding." They couldn't have been more wrong. __ wherein Levi Ackerman as Brahms from the movie The Boy, this book is half inspired with it and half of _kaiisaa_'s idea from tiktok!! i heard them enough to write this ><
