The teddy bear, subverted
There are few things as sickening-sweet as a teddy bear. They're the most innocuous, and therefore the most sinister, of all stuffed toys. A teddy's spongy body seems to serve as a repository for a child's misdirected love. For Chrissake, kids, get a puppy or a goldfish, or -- Heaven forbid! -- learn to love a human.
So it is with a blackened but giddy heart that I welcome the arrival of Teddy Scares. They're evil, mutant, dead teddy bears. And you can't beat the tagline: "Once Soft and Cuddly, Now Dead and Bloody."
Thanks to The Fortean Times for the heads up on this.
