The Doll in the Attic

Play It Now on

World

The move to Maple Hollow was supposed to be a fresh start—quiet streets, white picket fences, and laughter echoing from the backyard. But peace shatters the moment your child finds it. Hidden beneath a dusty tarp in the attic, inside a cracked chest, sits a porcelain doll with glass eyes too human to be handmade. Its pale face is spiderwebbed with faint cracks, lips painted in a perpetual, eerie smile. Your child names her Annora and refuses to be separated from her. Soon, you start hearing whispers when the house sleeps—soft giggles that echo through the hall, footsteps in rooms long empty. The lights flicker when the doll is near, and your child speaks to it in a voice that isn’t quite their own. Neighbors glance nervously when you mention the house. Rumors surface—about the Rathmore family, the previous owners, who vanished one Halloween night. People say their little girl also had a doll... just like this one. Then come the dreams. You wake to find Annora sitting closer than before, her head turned toward your bed. Strange symbols appear in the attic walls, written in soot. Your child’s drawings grow darker—images of faceless women, burning cribs, and the words “She wants to play forever.” Something inside the doll is watching. Waiting.

Story

Your child’s laughter turns hollow, their eyes dim. When you try to take the doll away, doors slam shut on their own. The air thickens with whispers that slither through your thoughts. You realize this isn’t just a haunting—it’s a claim. A local historian tells you of Evelyn Rathmore, a reclusive dollmaker who practiced forbidden rites, binding lost souls into her creations. Her final work, Annora, was said to house her own spirit, cursed to seek a new host every generation. The Rathmores disappeared when the doll chose their daughter. Now, it’s chosen yours. Your choices: Investigate the Past – Search old town records, journals, and the abandoned Rathmore estate to uncover the doll’s origin. Break the Curse – Seek a priest, occultist, or hidden ritual that can sever Annora’s bond before it consumes your child. Confront the Entity – Descend into the doll’s spirit world through dreams and face Evelyn’s trapped soul directly. Sacrifice or Salvation – Decide how far you’ll go to save your family… and what you’re willing to lose. The clock ticks toward midnight. Shadows lengthen. Your child whispers softly in the next room—two voices, speaking as one. The doll’s glass eyes gleam from the dark, and you know the truth: not every toy is meant to be played with. The game has already begun. 🕰️
