- 0:05In those days of my adolescence, when I was barely twelve years old,
- 0:10I experienced an event that until today haunts me like an eternal shadow. As
- 0:15I move forward toward my thirty, the need to free this weight from my
- 0:19past leads me to narrate the story that in its time sowed in me an
- 0:24impenetrable mystery and persistent restlessness. My days at the age of twelve did not
- 0:31differ too much from the other children of my age I left behind childhood,
- 0:36although I resisted abandoning the security provided by that state. Everyday life was going
- 0:42on without big changes until one day my grandmother was ill for a while,
- 0:48but on this occasion she had to be seriously hospitalized in the hospital and my
- 0:54mother was quickly plunged into the obligation to take seriously care of my grandmother and
- 0:59was therefore forced to temporarily leave our home. Her work as a children'
- 1:07s story illustrator gave her flexibility to continue working from the hospital. This led
- 1:12her to offer herself as the primary caregiver. He left me alone in our
- 1:18house. Initially she tried to balance the situation by going and coming, but
- 1:23the fatigue of travel and the demand to provide complete care to my grandmother led
- 1:29her to make a decision that would temporarily transform my life. After a week
- 1:34of reflection and debate, it was determined that the wisest thing would be for
- 1:40me to move to the house of a relative for as long as my grandmother
- 1:45' s convalescence lasted, although I initially resisted considering myself capable of taking care
- 1:51of myself, reality was imposed and I accepted my destiny. My mother,
- 1:55with the haste that the situation demanded, began the search for a suitable place.
- 2:00I quickly suggested staying with my uncles Francisco and Daniel, with whom I
- 2:06shared a close and friendly relationship. Initially it resonated in my mind as the
- 2:12most appetizing option. However, the fact that they both lived in a house
- 2:15five hours away played against me, as my mother insisted that I stay in
- 2:22the same city where my grandmother' s hospital, the bustling city of Mexico,
- 2:25was. That' s when, without warning, my fate bowed to
- 2:32my Aunt Holga' s house. His name resonated in the remotest corners of
- 2:37my memory. I barely remembered any interaction with her. The news of my
- 2:42moving home caught me off guard and the uncertainty about who my aunt Holga really
- 2:47was began to worry me about how little I remembered back then my aunt used
- 2:53to be an active part of our family when I was about five years old
- 3:00as a member. Together with her husband and older children, they always participated
- 3:04in the festivities and family reunions. However, this connection suddenly faded more or
- 3:12less along with my last memories of it. There was no clear explanation at
- 3:16that time and my young age limited my understanding of the motives behind this breakdown.
- 3:23Just thinking I' d go live in a house with people I practically
- 3:29knew nothing about. It made me feel very rejected, as I thought I
- 3:32would have no one to talk to, since at the age of five my
- 3:38cousins were already teenagers, which led me to assume that by that time they
- 3:43were already too old to interact with someone my age. My mother informed me
- 3:49that my aunt had accepted that I should stay at her house while taking care
- 3:53of my grandmother in the hospital, although my choice was limited, since I
- 3:58would live only at home if I did not accept I packed some belongings and
- 4:02went with my mother to Mexico City. That was my first time in town.
- 4:06Although I had visited amusement parks on school excursions, I had never explored
- 4:13the city on my own before, despite the negative stories I had heard about
- 4:18agglomeration and crime, I was not afraid. Instead, I was excited about
- 4:25the possibility of discovering new places. Besides, my mother' s promise to
- 4:30take me to Macdonnols, a place I only knew on television, increased my
- 4:35enthusiasm. We got off the bus and took a taxi that left us in
- 4:42front of an imposing building very different from what I was used to seeing.
- 4:46My mother called my aunt, who responded quickly to open us with her key.
- 4:50The building reserved only for residents added an air of exclusivity. How my
- 4:59feeling of this intensified in an unknown world. My mother, with the urgency
- 5:03of returning to the hospital, quickly said goodbye remembering to behave and being kind
- 5:10to my aunt I nodded with sincerity, although it was a few times that
- 5:15I saw that woman who was my aunt Holga, I did not immediately recognize
- 5:20her, since the last time I saw her was too small to retain every
- 5:26trait of her face in my memory. To me, she was just a
- 5:30stranger I' d share a few days with. I' m baffled,
- 5:33though. I tried to be as kind as possible, not knowing that I
- 5:39was waiting at my lazy aunt' s house. As I watched my aunt
- 5:44carefully that she seemed to have a somewhat serious expression, my mind crossed the
- 5:48possibility that her acceptance was not entirely genuine, but rather a gesture of commitment.
- 5:55Despite this suspicion, I decided not to let this idea cloud my expectations
- 6:00section. I was comforted thinking that at worst I could spend most of the
- 6:04day in the hospital next to my mother, or venture to explore the city.
- 6:10On my own, the third floor of the imposing building housed my aunt
- 6:15' s home. Although his apartment was modest, I found it quite acceptable,
- 6:20especially considering the stories he had heard about the limited breadth of some places
- 6:27in the city. My aunt informed me that I had two rooms while we
- 6:33were on the elevator, sowing in me the hope of having one for myself.
- 6:38However, upon entering my aunt Olga revealed that I would share the room
- 6:43with my cousin. This revelation puzzled me a little, although my memory was
- 6:48not able to completely rebuild. The image of my aunt Olga and her family
- 6:53clearly recalled that she had two sons, both teenagers. However, Mr de

- 7:00s s s s s s s s s s s I decided not to

- 7:06cousin at that time of about eight years, and that' s when I
- 7:11woke up in my mind a spark of recognition. My brain clicked to recognize
- 7:15her as the baby I remembered before my aunt Olga was separated from the family.
- 7:21I thought there would be no problem sharing the room with her and I
- 7:27occupied the lower bunk without further objection. Despite my initial impression that my cousin
- 7:32would not be interested in establishing a friendship, her enthusiasm at seeing me and
- 7:36her kindness pleasantly surprised me and I realized that, unlike other children who might
- 7:42be upset, she was different. During the first three days, everything happened
- 7:50with surprising normality. I spent a few hours in the hospital to visit my
- 7:56mother and returned in the afternoons to my aunt' s house to enjoy moments
- 8:01of play with my cousin. I felt optimistic, believing that we were building
- 8:05a solid friendship. However, after those three days, something strange began to
- 8:11manifest. Curiosity began to invade me, nourished by the fact that my memory
- 8:18did not fail and I remembered that my aunt Holga was married and that there
- 8:24were two more children in her family. However, he was unable to find
- 8:28any trace of them anywhere in the department, no photos or signs of their
- 8:33existence. It seemed as if they had disappeared from the face of the intrigued
- 8:41earth as we shared moments of leisure by putting together a puzzle, I decided
- 8:48to address the subject with my cousin wanted to be careful not to hurt their
- 8:50feelings. So I chose to ask about his father, first exploring the terrain
- 8:56with a question about his work. However, the answer I got left me
- 9:01perplexed. My cousin looked at me for a few seconds and finally said her
- 9:07father didn' t work at anything. Although my cousin' s response to
- 9:11his father' s situation seemed strange to me, I decided not to go
- 9:16too deep into the subject, but curiosity was still latent in me, because
- 9:22I remembered that guy as an extremely funny and pleasant person. Moved by that
- 9:26curiosity, I asked again this time more specifically. About your father' s
- 9:33whereabouts. I asked him where he currently lived. My cousin looked at me
- 9:39for a few minutes. Before answering quietly here in the house, my doubts
- 9:45grew and a burlesque laugh escaped from my lips. How his father could live
- 9:50in that house without me seeing him. In the last three days. I
- 9:56thought my cousin was joking, but his serious expression indicated the opposite, he
- 10:00repeated firmly. They really live here in the house. Untrusted. I told
- 10:07her not to be a liar, that she hadn' t seen her father
- 10:11at any time, and that if she did, she would have seen him
- 10:13at lunch or something. Your answer only intensified my bewilderment. They no longer
- 10:20need to eat and prefer to go out at night. Strangeness took over me,
- 10:24but I kept thinking it was part of a joke made by my cousin.
- 10:30To scare me. I insisted that she show me her father and brothers
- 10:33at that time, challenging her to prove her claim without wasting time. My
- 10:39cousin got off the ground and claimed she would and that they were all in
- 10:43her mom' s room. As we approached my aunt' s room,
- 10:48I tried to prepare for the supposed revelation. However, as we tried to
- 10:54turn the door knob, we discovered that it was locked securely. This puzzled
- 11:01us and my cousin said that her mother didn' t usually lock the door
- 11:05with insurance, that she liked to leave it open in case her husband and
- 11:09children wanted to leave. I thought everything was too convenient to support my cousin
- 11:15' s story and sarcasmly I told her that her lie was obvious and went
- 11:18back to the room we shared to put together a puzzle. I was on
- 11:24it. When my cousin entered the room jumping, he insisted that he had
- 11:30found the keys in the kitchen and that we could enter now. Despite my
- 11:33doubts, I followed them back to the room. As she shook the keys
- 11:39at first, she seemed frustrated. He tried hard to find the right keys.
- 11:45The process lasted longer than expected and I thought I was deliberately prolonging the
- 11:50joke. Finally, after testing several keys, one of them turned and the
- 11:56door opened. As I opened the door, a chill swept through my body
- 12:01and the room seemed to absorb the temperature around it. It was as if
- 12:07we had entered a different space within the same house. Simply the difference was
- 12:13palpable, but I tried not to give it too much importance. Upon entering,
- 12:18I noticed that the room was plunged into darkness. A thick curtain completely
- 12:22blocked daylight. My cousin lit the light and what I saw in front of
- 12:28me filled me with astonishment and disturbance. Three dolls each sitting on a chair
- 12:33caught my attention right away. They weren' t realistic dolls. On the
- 12:39contrary, they looked handmade with a cheap leather fabric. His eyes were simple
- 12:43buttons and his noses and mouths were boiled with stammer. The restlessness grew when
- 12:50I noticed that the dolls wore clothes that seemed to be the same as my
- 12:56teenage cousins and uncle used to wear. The most disturbing thing was to discover
- 13:01that each doll had a lock of hair corresponding to each of them. This
- 13:05detail was so disturbing that it filled me with fear. I watched with horror
- 13:11as my cousin, without showing any discomfort, happily interacted with the dolls,
- 13:16called them by their names and then began to introduce me to each of them
- 13:22as if they were living beings. The scene before my eyes was terrifying,
- 13:26but for some reason I couldn' t look away. A dark, heavy
- 13:31air filled the room and the strange connection between my cousin and those dolls suggested
- 13:37something beyond comprehension. He was caught between unbelief and fear without knowing what to
- 13:43do or how to react. The moment I regained the ability to speak,
- 13:48I expressed my discomfort to my cousin and begged her to leave the room immediately
- 13:54to do anything else. I didn' t want to get involved in trouble
- 14:00with my aunt because I broke into her room without permission. However, my
- 14:03cousin' s response only intensified my bewilderment and terror. She claimed those dolls
- 14:09were her deceased relatives. He told me not to be afraid because they were
- 14:16his father and brothers converted into dolls to stay with those they loved most for
- 14:20eternity. I found the explanation disturbing. I couldn' t accept what my
- 14:26cousin was saying and I asked him to stop inventing macabre stories. I warned
- 14:31him about the consequences of getting us into trouble by entering his mother' s
- 14:37room without permission. Despite my pleas, she insisted that she was telling the
- 14:41truth and that those dolls were her family. In a desperate attempt to prove
- 14:48the authenticity of his claims. My cousin looked directly at the doll representing her
- 14:54father and asked him to prove to me that it was real. For a
- 14:58moment, the dolls remained motionless, fueling my skepticism. I was about to
- 15:05reject all the stories as a joke of bad taste. When, to my
- 15:09horror, the head of the doll that was supposed to be his father,
- 15:15he began to turn without anyone touching him. The head turned to me as
- 15:20if the doll wanted to look directly into my eyes. I was invaded by
- 15:24a sense of dread and before I could contain myself, I screamed and ran
- 15:30out of the room. I took refuge in the room I shared with my
- 15:33cousin. I closed the door behind me and trembled with my fast heart.
- 15:39My cousin arrived a few minutes later trying to comfort me and explaining that her
- 15:45intention was not to scare me. According to her, she only wanted to
- 15:48show me to her family, since she never met them because they died.
- 15:52Before she could remember her story, she acquired stranger tones. He claimed that
- 15:58his mother had spoken to God, who had instructed him to make dolls so
- 16:03that the spirits of his father and brothers could live again through them. Terrified.
- 16:10I just wanted to get out of that house as soon as possible.
- 16:12The atmosphere in that place had acquired a frightening heaviness and the story of my
- 16:18cousin left me more confused and frightened than I was willing to admit. In
- 16:25terror and confusion, I felt so disturbed that I even grabbed some sharp scissors
- 16:29from the room bureau, a sort of primitive defense against what might happen.
- 16:37Since my cousin showed me those disturbing dolls, the feeling of being observed became
- 16:41omni present. When it was bedtime. I put the scissors under my pillow,
- 16:48taking almost an hour to fall asleep, but my rest was ephemeral,
- 16:53as I woke up the clear sound of the door, slowly opening with horror
- 17:00I saw one of those dolls entering the room, moving strangely, as if
- 17:04a rag doll tried to emulate human walking. The vision of that fabric and
- 17:11cotton being terrified me and covered me completely with blankets, hoping it would just
- 17:15go away for my horror. The sheets did nothing but expose my vulnerability and
- 17:22the doll approached my bed directly. I felt clearly his attempts to remove the
- 17:30sheets from my face and went into deep panic without thinking about it. I
- 17:34took the scissors that lay under my bed and with a unique and trembling movement,
- 17:40sank them into the doll' s stomach, tearing the fabric in the
- 17:45process without looking back, ran out of the room, opening the apartment door
- 17:51and descending each floor to the race. I was in my pajamas and barefoot,
- 17:56but I didn' t care about that at all. I just wanted
- 17:59to get out of that house, escape from what I had been so deeply
- 18:03terrified of. Memories become cloudy. After that moment. I don' t
- 18:10remember exactly how I got to the hospital where my grandmother was hospitalized. Upon
- 18:14seeing me, my mother ran to help me worried and confused. I was
- 18:18close to her for about an hour until she got a call from my aunt,
- 18:23who was visibly upset. I didn' t know at that moment the
- 18:29details of the call, but to bring all the information, when writing this,
- 18:33I went to talk to my mother about it and it turned out that
- 18:37my aunt smells furious. I had told her that I had killed her husband
- 18:40and that she didn' t want to see me at her house again.
- 18:44The reason behind this strange accusation dates back to the tragedy that had led to
- 18:48the separation of my aunt from the rest of the family. Her two older
- 18:53children and her husband had died in a tragic road accident. However, my
- 19:00aunt insisted that they were still alive, a belief that led her to become
- 19:03more and more isolated. The family' s attempts to seek psychiatric help for
- 19:10her were unsuccessful and eventually lost almost all contact with the outside world. At
- 19:17the time, my mother apologized for leaving me with my aunt thinking the situation
- 19:22had improved. I told him about the dolls and my actions that night,
- 19:27but my mother didn' t ask a lot of questions if she didn'
- 19:32t completely believe my story. Despite that, I knew what I had experienced
- 19:33that night, an experience that would be marked in my memory forever. Anonymous account ra
