Welcome back to Sleep With The Lights On! To kick off the new season of SWTLO with Haunted Dolls You Should FEAR! We're back, and better than ever (except for the camera focusing malfunction that isn't fixed until Vol. 39. Sorry bout that.)There’s something about a child’s toy — the glassy stare of a doll, the eternal grin of a puppet, the way they always seem to be watching even when no one’s around. We tell ourselves it’s just the design. Just cheap plastic molded into something cheerful. But sometimes... the smile doesn’t feel so friendly. Sometimes a toy isn’t just a toy. And sometimes... your child’s imaginary friend isn’t imaginary at all.Tonight, we step into rooms that haven't changed in decades. Rooms with toys still resting where they were last played with. We’ll open the lid on old toy boxes that were never meant to be opened. And if you hear whispering in the shadows when the story ends — don’t worry. It’s probably just your imagination. Probably.We'll see you on the inside…STORY TIME STAMPS:3:27 - STORY 1: Charlie On The Shelf15:10 - STORY 2: Letta Me Out: Letta The Haunted Doll

There are moments in time, caught in the eerie silence of a farmhouse, the hum of a subway, or the innocence of a childhood game, where the fabric of our world seems to warp, bending into shapes we cannot fathom.What lurks in these shadows, these brief, unsettling breaches where time and space conspire to confuse and bewilder? It's as if the very essence of our existence whispers secrets, only to snatch them back into the ether, leaving us with nothing but the chilling echo of something... other.------TIME STAMPS:3:04 - STORY 1: Stone Tape Glitch 8:13 - STORY 2: The Subway Glitch13:41 - STORY 3: Hide and Never Seek------

A familiar van, a ghostly doppelgänger, or an encounter with one's namesake from another life—all these moments whisper of a world where the lines between past, present, and possibility blur into obscurity.

In these fleeting instants, we are reminded that the universe might just be a tapestry of infinite threads, where the echo of a loved one, the apparition of oneself, or the meeting of a mirrored soul can cross paths in the most unexpected of ways, leaving us to ponder the mysteries that weave through our existence. We'll see you on the inside… —— TIME STAMPS: 2:30 - STORY 1: The VW Van 6:53 - STORY 2: The Curious Classmate 11:54 - STORY 3: Toss A Coin To Your Brother
