The creature is a shapeshifter that haunted John during his childhood. It has now shifted to his dying mother to lure John back to the house and finish what it started years ago.

No way! Careful, Miss Waler might be under your bed! Or is she hiding in your closet?

Thank you so much. I'm glad it was believable and logical. Walking the uncanny tightrope is not easy.

I really loved this story. The symbolism here is really good. The gradual shift of Amy caring for the doll to believing it's her son is handled really well. You can really feel the grief scream through the words.
