Someone's in the Basement

Introducing, the basement man:

Not only is he in the basement, but he's in a closet in the basement no less.  Is it possible for a scarier scenario in a kid's life?  I wonder if they can ever grow up normal now?

He even scares me when I forget about him and whip on the light to store some clothes or something.
Poor little closet man.  He didn't ask to be a horror, it just can't be helped.  He started out as a life-size model for Todd's paintings.  Colonial era, can you tell?  But now he's relegated to haunting childrens' dreams.

It's especially fun when someone comes over to spend the night.  The kids have all kinds of entertaining ways to introduce their friends to....the basement man--bwah-ha-ha-ha!
