So, as part of a challenge I imposed upon myself I am rewatching the whole of the modern era of Doctor Who. We're off to a great start with this episode. I love creepy and frightening things, so this episode is quite fun for me. I am an avid fan of horror and anything scary so honestly the whole mannequin coming to life bit got me hyped. Mannequins are also something that frighten me quite a lot so bonus points there. All in all, a great episode that I love to rewatch from time to time.

This story is utterly brutal, and gutted me. Did I read it years ago in high-school? Yes. Did I stay up because the riveting story until 4am only to have to sleep with the light on? Absolutely. An absolute necessity for fans of horror. Some Doctor Who stories are terrifying with a happy end. When I say there’s no hope in sight. It is meant fully. If you’re in the mood for a dark genuinely great read this is the book for you!
