This spooky fella measures approximately 22" x 4". Each piece is handmade from recycled, repurposed objects.
Each little person comes with a copy of their own story, which helps bring their character to life.
This one's story is:
Did you hear that? What was that? I hear it again! It’s getting closer, it’s like something is breathing down my neck. Please don’t turn out the lights! It’s coming faster now, it will be here any minute! Please make it go away, please tell it to leave me alone!! Don’t close the door, just leave it open, please!!! What do you mean there’s no such thing as the boogie man, he’s standing right there behind the door, laughing. He’s pointing at the clock on his chest, he’s whispering “It’s boogie man time!” No, no, not boogie man time, anything but that!!
It is $75 and comes with a handcrafted copy of the story.
