Five Minutes Of Fear

My buddy Bryan liked to collect dolls...

Naturally, people made fun of him for it...
that a man his age would have such a childish hobby...

Bryan didn't care... He loved his doll collection...
and doted on them like they were his own children...

Little did he know, his obsession would be his undoing...


The Peruvian Doll by Christopher Kai is a frightening piece of flash fiction. Bryan's friend is a cop, but nothing in his career could've prepared him for the horror he finds in Bryan's bedroom. The descriptions are grotesque and the action is surreal. In the end, a life-altering decision must be made. Not the doll story one might expect.

As always,
