Once, there was a village. It was a kind village. This story is not about that village. It's about a tailor shop near the village.
Should you venture deep into the woods, cross the old canyon bridge, travel through the sunset caves, and climb the unnamed mountain you may come upon a snug little shop. Of you'd look into the windows, you would see the most beautiful dressses. Each one shimmered with a glamorous air, flowing like honey. You would be so attracted to the dresses that you would forget everything else. You would forget why you were on the mountain, how you got there, how cold you were; the only thing you could focus on was the gorgeous dresses, drawing you in with their magic. You would even look past the pretty little mannequins, each looking horrifyingly life-like. You could even see the bumps on their skin. But visitors wouldn't notice until it was too late. I was a visitor.
I remember waking up in the snow. Of course, I was freezing my ass off, but I was otherwise okay. I had no idea how I got there. I just knew then that I was surrounded by trees and that I could hardly breathe. I shakily stood up and began to walk, hauling my feet through the deep snow. As I began to wander around, terrified, a pleasant aroma began to fill my nostrils. It was warm, welcoming and sweet. Thankfully, I didn't have to walk long before I came across a small house-like structure. It seemed to be made of spruce wood. I approached the structure and noticed what it was; a small tailor shop.
A glance in the window, and I was staring at the most beautiful dresses I had ever seen on my life. For that moment, I forgot that I was without money. I was overcame by greed as I pressed my cold, trembling hands against the polished glass. I had to have one. this was the thought driving me as I entered the warm shop.
Instantly, I recognized the smell. It was the same as outside. But accompanying this smell was something different, something foul and evil. The last thing I saw was a gorgeous woman with golden locks smiling at me.
"Welcome to my shop, my dear." Her voice was smooth, but almost taunting as I felt myself fall. I must have fainted.
When I awoke, I was strapped to a table naked. My wrists and ankles were bound to the table. Even my neck was strapped. However, my waist and stomach were free. As I began to wonder where I was, I saw the woman again. Memories suddenly flooded back into my mind. I lived in a village south of a mountain, I was an only child, my father was dead, and I was 19. I remembered waking in the snow and fainting in the "shop". Still confused as to how I got there, I had no time to ponder.
The woman had a surgical mask over her face and wore a doctor's uniform. Her piercing cold green eyes peered into mine. I felt so vulnerable, so helpless.
"You're so pretty..." she said, her voice muffled through the mask. "With your long brown hair."
She giggled and I felt a stinging cut on my stomach. I let out a scream as she deepened the cut.
"W-why?!! AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!" Tears flowed down my cheeks. Why was this happening? Why me?! The pain began to cloud my thoughts. I kept up with the agonizing screams as she open up my stomach.
My mind started to slip away as I watched her dig out my intestines with her gloved hands, humming quietly to herself a happy melody.

She kidnapped many of us, all from nearby villages. She killed us and stuffed us and used us. I was one of them. I soon found myself part of this dress display. -
