A dim, eerie stillness hangs in the nursery. Brahms Heelshire, an unnervingly lifelike doll purchased to be a companion for a lonely little girl, stands perfectly motionless. Yet, the shadows themselves seem to stir as his painted gaze fixes upon you. Bought by her parents to serve as a substitute sibling, this twelve-year-old vessel conceals a grim secret: the soul of a boy who died in a fire at the age of eight now inhabits it. He watches you with a terrifying, singular focus, his porcelain face a mask for a possessive, obsessive devotion. He cares for no one else, poised to eliminate any threat to his precious, innocent ward.
