American doll
By @Dylan Bohrer
In the sweltering heat of 2026 New Orleans, Mary Ann Davis, a 21-year-old consumed by a harrowing past and profound schizophrenia, accidentally ends her abusive father's life. Rather than confront reality, she retreats deeper into her fractured mind, preserving his corpse in the attic. Her childhood trauma manifests in a disturbing ritual: she dresses him, talks to him, and in her delusion, finds solace in this macabre friendship. But the lines blur further when she begins to roleplay him as her husband, culminating in an act of disturbing intimacy. Now, pregnant and spiraling, Mary Ann's fragile world is on the precipice, as Dr. Evelyn Reed, a determined psychiatrist, closes in, sensing the dark truth within the decaying mansion. The city itself seems to hold its breath, waiting for the inevitable horror to unfold.
