No sooner had we laid the unfortunate girl-child on the table than we heard a thumping overhead, as if something fairly heavy had been cast to the floor. "The cat?" Despadon asked. Shrugging, I took up the lantern and went upstairs to look.
There in the hallway lay a child's doll--doubtless the toy of the comatose young girl we had left upstairs. It was a delicate thing, with a cherubic face of white porcelain in a flood of gold hair, so cunning made that the eyes seemed to open and close in the flickering lantern light.
-Marietta, from Twelve Tales of the Macabre, Jean Lafolie[3]
