Jim had always been a little creeped out by this little sister's ventriloquist dummy, and now he was going to get rid of it once and for all. Jim stole into her room at the dead of night, careful not to wake her up. He crept over to her wardrobe, where she kept the dummy when she wasn't using it. There it was, its shiny, coal black eyes staring up at him. Jim gave an involuntary shudder as he picked him up and crept down the stairs and outside to the corn field. He left the dummy down on a tree stump at the far edge of the field. 'Goodbye, dummy,' Jim said. 'Did you say, dummy?' came a voice that seemed to come from the dummy itself! Suddenly, the dummy's head spun around to face him, an angry expression on its face. That's when Jim knew he must run. He screamed and ran back to the house. He jumped into bed and buried himself under his duvet, trying to control his breathing. The dummy was alive!

There is no-one that is not creeped out by a ventriloquist dummy! Loved the 'involuntary shudder' even just to handle the dummy!! The story's development into a scary story... I should have seen coming... and even reading the dummy's Pinocchio transition from puppet to real boy was enough for me to feel paranoid by the toys in my own house. Next time... put a warning on the story if it is going to be like a horror movie!!
A terrifically written 100WC, Kieran. Well done!
