![]() That’s how Erin heard it described anyway - she had never been inside the Toy Box herself. This shack housed a small room composed of large wall-sized mirrors. So for the previous Halloween, the owners decided to spice things up by building several new interactive installations which included a windowless shack called The Devil’s Toy Box. The attraction was called Farmer Grave’s Haunted Orchard and in years past, it had been every bit as thrilling as that name suggested which is to say not very. Like pretty much everywhere else, the place where Erin grew up had its own annual haunted-house attraction that went up every October. I mention all of this because about two weeks ago, I got an email from an old friend (someone who was well-versed in my sordid past) asking if I could help out their younger sister, an 18-year-old girl who we’ll call “Erin” located in Northern Louisiana (the specific parish where Erin lived shall go unnamed for reasons that will soon become obvious.) In most versions of this story, he did so by flaying you alive. Though in reality the titular “box” is not a toy at all but rather a small room where the floor, the ceiling, and the walls are each composed of one giant mirror.Īccording to the legend, if you stood inside this mirror-room alone for too long, supposedly the devil would show up and steal your soul. “The Devil’s Toy Box” is an urban legend that savvier horror fans will recognize as the inspiration for the infamous Lament Configuration from Clive Barker’s seminal Hellraiser series.
