The Mannequin on the Boardwalk

The Mannequin on the Boardwalk

by Cassandra Bailey

My dream job at a seaside haunted house becomes a living nightmare. A bizarre street performer, a twisted mimic of Michael Jackson, sets his sights on me. What starts as an unnerving prank escalates into a terrifying obsession, as this man reveals a power to distort reality, time, and even his own body. He whispers things my mind can hear but his lips never speak. He wants more than a scare—he wants in. And for some reason, he won't stop talking about my eyes.
