I was 3 when my babysitter decided to show me Child's Play. That's bad enough on its own. But did you know that the Good Guy doll that Chucky possesses in the movie was based on a real doll on the market at that time, the My Buddy doll? And did you know that I had a My Buddy doll that I slept with every night? And did you know that the only way to keep your doll from murdering you and your family is to bury it in the closet under as many books, toys, blankets and dirty clothes as possible and never step foot in that closet again? I DO! My Buddy got banished until I was probably 8 years old

I too had a My Buddy doll. He was cool, until he wasn't. And he was also banished to the attic closet in my room... and never received a pardon
