Jurg, has learned that there are many kinds of chains, not all of them physical...
My name is Jurg. I am “Its” keeper.
Allow me to tell you the story of “It.” It was once a human, or as close an approximation
of humanity as a 13 year old boy can be. It was my brother once. David we used to
call him. No longer.
Two years ago I was 19, a rebellious metal head who drank, smoked and partied.
They were happier times. My brother idolized me. He wanted to be me, he wanted to
drink and smoke and have sex and stay up all night in sleazy nightclubs. He wanted to
listen to my music, read my books and play my video games. Unfortunately for him I
found a copy of Sonic R for the PC for £1 in a bargain bin. I played the game and got
sick of it relatively quickly. Mainly because of the bloody music. I completed a few
races as Knuckles, but gave up before I unlocked Metal Knuckles. My brother, despite
his claims, wasn't blessed with the heavy metal tastes I so enjoyed back then and he
became besotted with the music of Sonic R. Poor boy.
After much pestering, I finally relented and let the poor sap play Sonic R on my Laptop
in his room, mainly because my room had too many interesting things for him to spend
any length of time in there. What with the collection of throwing weapons, the
seemingly endless supply of chains, the bondage gear, the alcohol and stacks of
smokes. Like I said, I was a rebel. So, with a bottle of vodka, a pack of smokes and a
violent Japanese horror film, I was content to let the brat pilfer my computer for a
while. Thanks to the vodka, I fell asleep before most of the killing started in my film but
was woken by that first high pitched scream that lets you know a Japanese schoolgirl
is about to die. It had been an hour since David took my computer and I wondered if
he'd given up yet.
I stood up and immediately regretted it. My liver was displeased at my choice of
beverage and was making no secret of that fact. Off I trundled up the stairs. Thump.
Thump. Thump. Then, I heard it -- a strange sound, a “schluurping” sound. Dismissing
it as an after effect of the Russian firewater, I half fell through my brother's door.
There he was, sat in a lotus position with the laptop on his lap, mesmerized by
flickering images. Despite the recurring image of a toy Tails I knew that he wasn't
playing Sonic R anymore. Naturally, I belted him around the head for dicking about on
my laptop.
He hissed. In one blurred movement the laptop and its flashing pictures were placed
where he was sat and he was busy trying to claw my face off. Naturally being the much
older and stronger brother I put him on his backside and threw in a quick kick to the
ribs to show him who was boss. He vomited blood and I'm not too proud to admit that I
ran. I thought I'd really hurt him.
The reality was far worse.
The torrent of blood coming from his mouth soaked the green carpet, surely nobody
could puke that much, I thought he was going to die in front of me. In a way, he did.
After a few seconds the tide of crimson stopped and he made a gurgling noise, then
the same “schlurping” sound I heard before, then he burped and coughed up what
appeared to be a ball of cotton wool, finally he collapsed. I rushed over to him and
couldn't feel a pulse, his body was still warm but I knew he was gone. Then I was sick.
I looked over at my laptop, which had turned off and realized that somehow, the blood
on the carpet had avoided it entirely. In this swamp of polyester and human blood was
a small, perfectly circular island of green carpet on which my laptop perched. I flicked
the lid shut and sparked up a cigarette whilst I tried to figure out what to do. If I called
the police, I'd be in prison by dinner time. If I hid the body, my mother would get
suspicious and again I'd be in prison. I decided to disappear. I ran down to my room
and packed a case with bare essentials and a whole lot of cigarettes and alcohol. I
turned to leave my room and there he was.
No I'm wrong, there “It” was.
My brother, or what was left of him, was suspended by two strings which appeared to
be attached to nothing but nonetheless stood straight above him three feet into the
air. His eyes had glazed over and gone black and in the middle of his forehead was a
glowing red crystal of some sort. The aberration floated towards me and something
inside me snapped. Unholy rage that my brother be taken from me and his corpse
defiled. I attacked the corpse with the sort of vigor I have yet to find a chemical
capable of replicating. I hit it and hit it, but it didn't stop staring at me with those black
dead eyes. The crystal glowed brighter and I heard it “schlurp” again before it started
trying to bite me. My rage only intensified. I beat it to the ground and bound it with
chains, first the ones I had clipped to my belt and later I bound it to the walls in my
room. No matter what I did the thing didn't stop fighting or struggling.
Now I had my brother's seemingly possessed corpse bound to my bedroom wall, his
room coated with blood and no way of explaining what the hell had just gone on, so I
decided to carry on drinking and hope to wake up not in prison. My prayers were
answered; my mother woke me up asking where David was, in my drunken and half-
conscious stupor, I muttered he was in my room. A few seconds later I woke up and
realized what I had said. I got up and stumbled to my room but I was too late. The
thing had destroyed my mother, it had devoured her and all that was left was a small
plushie which looked like her. I noticed that “It” had stopped struggling and seemed
almost docile. I knew then what I had to do.
Since that day, I have attempted to destroy the creature many times. I removed its
limbs, I burned it, I fed it through a wood chipper but I haven't yet been able to end its
miserable existence. All that happens is it reassembles, gets hungry and goes on a
rampage. Three times I captured the beast and chained it back in my old room.
Destroying the creature seems to be impossible, I tried to starve it but in its fervent
attempts to feed on me it almost broke free so now my task is to bring it victims.
Every fortnight, I visit a particularly seedy nightclub. Every fortnight I pick a fairly
attractive young lady who is by herself. Every week I woo the poor creature and lead
her to my home and her demise. I have my way with the sacrifices before letting “It”
get them. I don't see why “It” should have all the fun. I collect the remains and keep
them as a reminder of my horrific deeds.
To this day I'm still not sure exactly what happened to my brother, all I know is “It” is
hungry and I must keep it fed.

Blackout gives us this chilling tale of “The Last Race”…
I have sat back for too long listening to the lies. These elaborate, but poorly written,
fabrications cannot continue on while he still exists. These lies only contribute to the
mystery surrounding him and thus make it even more difficult to fight him. We must
stop writing for the supposed fun of it. I have only one tale offer, but I hope the
warning contained within can help someone avoid a similar fate.
I purchased Sonic R for my Saturn several months ago over Ebay for the paltry sum of
one dollar. A video game for such a small amount is a great score by anyone’s
standards, but there was a much higher price to be paid. More than money was to be
lost in the name of that unholy game.
I am currently enrolled in college and was blessed with a roommate who shares my
love for gaming. We would always play together between study sessions and over
time our skill greatly improved. Since we were both fans of the Sonic universe we
were both excited when I obtained Sonic R. We wasted no time and even skipped a
class to play it. Beating the game took no time at all and was completed 100% in a
matter of hours. I loved to play as Super Sonic and my friend as the Tails Doll. I
loved the speed and golden color and he seemed fascinated with the swaying doll.
Thanks to Sonic’s speed and my skill, I always managed to win the races in the end.
He eventually got frustrated and decided to quit. Tired of playing as well, we both
called it quits and went on with the day.
That night, my dreams were haunted by an eerie red glow. I was always accosted by
the glow wherever I went, even at full run. I never saw more than that, but the feeling
of fear was beyond description. I awoke in a cold sweat and couldn’t fall back asleep.
The nightmare continued off and on for days and started to take a toll on my daily life.
Tasks became more difficult and my school work suffered. I may have failed several
exams but I didn’t fail to notice my roommate. His actions started deviating from his
usual habits. He started staying up late, talking to himself, and acting angry all the
time. Every time I tried to talk to him he just got angry and yelled at me. I eventually
thought it might be the result of my beating him at Sonic R, since that was the last
game we’d played. He had never acted like this at a loss, which explains why I didn’t
expect this reason for his actions.
Late one night I asked him about the game, if his actions were the result of his loss as
the Tails Doll to me. He stared at me in silence, but I could see the hatred burning in
his eyes. After what seemed like an eternity he walked away, but before he left the
room he turned and said, “Someday I’ll catch you. You can’t run forever.” I started to
respond but he had already left the room and the dorm altogether.
The next day came and went but he hadn’t returned to his room. He didn’t show up to
class and no one seemed to know where he had run off to. After the second day I
called his phone, but after the ringing subsided and the message system picked up all
I could hear was “Can you feel the Sunshine” playing softly behind the static.
He never came back to his room or the campus. Police eventually came to investigate
the disappearance, but were unable to draw any conclusions. I told my side of the
story, but it didn’t seem to influence the investigation. I was a suspect for the longest
time, but no proof of my involvement was ever found and eventually the case went
cold. It was assumed he had been kidnapped or something to that effect and was
probably dead.
I, however, was never the same. Almost every night I see that eerie glow chasing me
in my dreams. It never catches me, but lately it’s been getting closer. I don’t know
how much longer I can outrun it, but I know it won’t be forever. I don’t know what will
happen when it finally catches me, but I fear I will not be around to warn others once it
does. I am pleading with every one of you to not purchase this game. To those who
do not believe in this curse head my words. Whether you believe this story is true is
irrelevant. The factual actuality of this story just doesn’t matter. The question you
have to ask yourself is this, “Can you afford to be wrong?”

1337 w00tn3ss is back to share the darker side of his tale. Remember, even in
darkness there is light…
Hello people it is 1337 w00tn3ss again....I guess life has been pretty good since my
story submission about the Tails Doll, but I gotta admit it's hard to keep my cool now....
For I have to confess a decision I have made concerning the Tails Doll. Many
believers will shake their head in disbelief....
You see there's something I haven't mentioned to anyone, not even K, about this
whole thing. I think it's for the better, but I digress. The night B tattled on me....I felt so
much hatred......Hatred that made me do something potentially dangerous....
You might say I would've snapped and I was bordering that very possibility. I was in my
room with the door closed, my mom forcing me to shut off my computer, leaving me to
sleep in the dark. Before all this, I wasn't scared of the dark, but I see his red gem at
night and it's something that would drive you insane.
I still had my light on after she left, and all of a sudden, I started crying. Crying
because, if only one person believed in me, what would happen if she left? I don't
know what came over me -- I suddenly started asking the Tails Doll to make me
stronger, to make everything better.....to be a part of me....
That's when things seem to get better, and the Tails Doll, or some part of me made
me realize who's important to me in life…
I no longer am friends with B and my life just flipped for the better, you could say. Not
completely better, but still, I was happier. Ever since that night, I know he's part of me,
but, I can't tell anyone else of this. It's one thing if they don't believe you and just
brush it off, but the wrong person could believe it and do something as drastic as an
exorcism! More than likely not that drastic, but there are people like that in this world!
Then my friend J had weird dreams about the Tails Doll and me. The doll’s shadow
kind of surrounded me, and things like that. He now believes in my ordeal, because he
believes the Tails Doll is a demon -- that is part of me. This makes me a partial
demon, so to speak. His words are similar to those on this website -- to never give up
hope. But sometimes, hope is very scarce.
One day, I went nearly insane after my mother almost basically disowned me, calling
me a "financial burden" because of my Juvenile Onset Diabetes (Type 1 for short) and
I went into my room. I scratched my arms so badly I had a huge gash in one of them
(because I don't believe in using blades or anything like that when I do happen to go
insane. In fact, it's now a habit -- when I'm stressed or enraged, I claw at my arms. I
still have scars for March and it's almost June.
If anything, the Tails Doll wants me to separate from my mother. I don't know why, but
one of my theories is the fact that she has magic on her side of the family. Magic that
could be harmful to him (or rather, us.) So as you can imagine, I'm somewhat
distancing myself from her, and The Tails Doll is very sensible in doing so. Yet
sometimes, I go too far with it. She has forgotten all about the curse she brushed
aside, and simply yells at me for getting an attitude with her every so often. I refuse
to bring up the Curse again, for his sake, and mine....
But it's almost like a trade. I keep quiet around those close to me, like J and K (no
pun intended with the initials) and others, and he...helps me in my dreams. Just last
night, I had a dream where I saw many demons everywhere, and the whole time I
heard whispers "They listen to you now" and everyone I knew in that dream said the
demons listened to me. Lately all the dreams I've had turned out to happen, but I still
doubt that possibility...
Then again, I guess that's what got me into this whole mess to start with, right? I'll
keep you informed as time passes on. Do Not give up hope, for my outcome is
miraculous as far as staying somewhat sane compared to the many others who have
no one who will listen to their stories and potentially save their lives. Just remember
that no matter what he tries to do, try to hold on to your humanity, for all the Minions in
his Army cannot give him the Souls He Truly wants. I was lucky, for I am still human,
but he resides in my body as well, just waiting for me to snap.
To all those who say they cannot Feel the Sunshine, do you know what that means?
It's actually a trick. When you are Cursed or sick, you get plenty of sunshine to help
you get better. To those who say they Cannot feel the Sunshine, you are only
tempting other-worldly beings into possessing, or killing you. Watch what you say,
you never know who's listening....
Don't Wound what you can't Kill
For He's Listening.....
Can you feel the Sunshine?
It's your only way Out.....

Did HSC experience an encounter with the Tails Doll, or was it the results of paranoia?
You decide...
Hi you can call me HSC. I am a member of the TDRL, mentioned in a story KRDSONIC
wrote a while ago. Anyways, I may have had a possible encounter with the Tails Doll
last Halloween.
I woke up and realized it was still dark. I looked at my clock beside my bed: 3:15 AM. I
remembered that it was Halloween, being my first Halloween actually properly knowing
about the Tails Doll, I was paranoid. I ignored the feeling, and tried to get to sleep.
About half an hour later, I was still not asleep. All of a sudden, Can You Feel the
Sunshine was stuck in my head. Whenever I get songs stuck in my head, I usually only
hear the words that I actually know (which should've just been half of the 1st verse
and the chorus), but this time, it was even words I didn't know! It was as if I was just
normally listening to the music.
After about 10 minutes, with the song never-ending (after it got to the last chorus, it
just went back to the 1st verse), all of a sudden, an image of the Tails Doll popped
into my head. It seemed familiar, then I realized what it was from. It was like a
screenshot of the Easter egg in Sonic Shorts Volume 2... The first thing I saw was the
Tails Doll.
I opened my eyes, and for some reason wanted to scream, but I couldn't. As I opened
my eyes, I actually expected him to be floating over my bed, but he wasn't. I tried to
turn my head to see if he was anywhere in my room. I couldn’t move... As if something
was stopping me from moving. I struggled to turn my head, I eventually got to an angle
that I could see my whole room (my bed is in the corner). I could see nothing out of
the ordinary.
I was still very freaked out about the fact I could barely move. I still had “Can You Feel
the Sunshine” stuck in my head. I tried something different. I started thinking of the
Sonic Heroes theme song, as it is the Sonic song I know the best; I know almost all the
words off by heart. I tried to force “Can You Feel the Sunshine” out of my head. I
started singing, very quietly but still singing. I got control of my body, and went under
my blankets, too scared to do anything else. I was still singing.
That's all I remember, if I had just fallen asleep or something else happened, I don't
know.
I'd say it was just mind games more then an actual encounter, but thought I would
share it anyway.
____________________________________________________________________
Jordan had a dream about the Tails Doll... or course, that never turns out well...
I played Sonic R.
I think it was a good choice.
I beat it 100%. It was fun, I liked it.
I met the doll.
At first I didn't know about him. I hadn't heard of the curse until after I'd already beaten
the game, Super Sonic and all. (In fact, I unlocked Super Sonic before I unlocked
everyone else.)
I was playing Sonic 2006, long... LONG after Sonic R was done with. So obviously, I
thought the curse was false. I didn't play for very long. Because when I met Tails, he
asked me "Can you feel the sunshine?" and I panicked, remembering the Doll. I shut
down the game and unplugged everything in my room, making sure there was no way
he could get me.
Nothing happened for the rest of the day. I was safe. I went to bed at the end of the
day, relieved that the curse was false.
In my dream, I found myself in a completely dark room. I walked forwards, the ground
underneath me was tiled, like the floor of a kitchen or bathroom or something. I
continued walking in a straight line. A large "Clack" sound came out of nowhere,
followed by a second, and a beam of light fell from nowhere, onto a single spot on the
tiled ground.
Revealing the Doll.
More lights turned on on either side of me and behind me, revealing that I was
surrounded by children. Their faces and skin were gray, great bags hung under their
eyes and their hair was white and falling out. They leaned forwards with their eyes
closed, as if they were completely exhausted. I walked towards the Doll, left with no
other choice. As I did, I noticed the children were muttering something. As I moved
forwards, the children began to stand up straight and the muttering got louder, I could
make out that they were saying something over and over, but what I could only guess.
I also noticed that I was getting smaller. Color returned to the children's skin and hair
as I continued onward, I could now barely hear what they were saying-
"Can you feel the sunshine?"
I continued onward, the children opened up their eyes and began smiling, their
muttering and whispering turning into talking, then full on singing. I continued to shrink
as I walked along the path, until I was nearly as tall as they were. Lights appeared all
over, revealing that I was standing in a great field.
His world. His perfect paradise.
The children continued singing as I got closer, until we were all healthy children,
singing the song to ourselves. I reached out and embraced the Doll in a hug. I let go
of him and turned around. I was back to my normal self... The children were not. They
were skeletons. Lying on the ground, their skulls twisted into surreal smiles. The
meadow that surrounded the tiled path was gone, leaving only cracked dry ground. All
of the lights but the one I was under suddenly turned off, leaving me and the doll in
complete darkness. He looked up at me with his empty eyes, I stared back.
I smiled.
I laughed.
And then I sang.
Can you see?
The sun is shining on me.
It makes me feel so free. So alive.
It makes me want to survive.
And the sky.
It makes me feel so high.
The bad times pass me by.
'Cause today is gonna be a brighter day!...
Can you feel the sunshine?
Does it brighten up your day?
Don't you feel that sometimes, you just need to run away?
Reach out for the sunshine.
Forget about the rain.
Just think about the good times, and they will come back again...
Without you.
There's nothing for me to do.
Can you feel the sunshine too? It's gonna proove.
It makes me feel brand new.
When you're here,
I wish you were always near.
'Cause everything's so clear.
And today is gonna be a brighter day!
Tails Doll Forever.

Backdrop1 of TDRL is having dreams... or are they premonitions?
I had heard of the curse since ‘08 and it fascinated me. But usually when I did the
bathroom curse I usually fail (as in turn off the music). But after the 6th try, I started to
have weird dreams of the Tails Doll. Since I have a lot of them, I should point out four
of my worst dreams.
Dream 1: This was a weird one… it was me in a lab with a doctor telling me that I had
a disease with no cure so they turned me into a animal and put me in this dome-like
environment. There was a lot of animals from birds to bears (which they turned me
into). And now that I think about it, it was just like the Sonic comics. A couple minutes
later, I saw that a couple of animals were trying to escape from this forest dome. I
helped them, but then in a blink of an eye, I was transported to a place where six
animals were crying and then I saw the Tails Doll’s red light. After everything turned
red, I woke up
Dream 2: This was the scariest of all of them. It was me being a ghost hunter. Now you
know that thing which track ghost with magnetic waves? Well, it was off the charts and
I just ran to my house. I tried to look for my family, but they weren’t there. And when I
was going to my room I saw something at the window it was like a faint red light. When
it was gone, I ran to my room until I looked away and saw the Tails Doll. Then I woke
up. Now the funny thing about this was that I was sooo scared that when I woke up, I
was about to jump out of my window.
Dream 3: This one was a weird one. It was about me going to a haunted house for a
Halloween party, and at the end of my dream this guy on the roof told me about the
curse. He told me a story that I was about a purest soul. One person was freaked out
and I stopped him. Then, I woke up.
Dream #4: One of the latest dreams that I had. It was me in this blank city with a
motorcycle passing by me (I don't know who was driving, but I bet it was a Sonic
character). After that, I felt a … “phasing.” I knew that it was me going out of the
dream and waking up, so I forced myself to dream and phased me in and out in and
out. It was so bad that my eyes were fully open, but I closed my eyes and still forced
myself to dream. So the dream resumed and then it got fuzzy. After the fuzz was gone,
I saw the Tails Doll in a chalk and blackboard setting. I saw him eat me up and then I
woke up. When I woke up, I noticed that I had been asleep for only 2 minutes.
Well, those are my dreams for now, I may post up more Tails Doll dreams if I have the
chance and I hope no one is killed because of what I wrote.

Ryu claims that breaking a bone may lead to something more than a new cast...
To begin my tale, I must start a few weeks ago. It was a normal afternoon for me, while
I was out skateboarding. As you may have guessed, eventually I crashed and broke
my right leg.
I went to the hospital and was told that I would need to get a cast. The first thing I
asked was if I could get surgery to speed up the healing process. The doctors said
that it wouldn't help whether I did or did not get surgery. After that, I simply went home
and fell asleep.
While I was asleep, something didn't feel right. I could tell that something was trying to
feel my leg. I tried to wake up and find out what it was, but I was unable to. Then, there
was a strange and eerie voice echoing in my head.
“Relax and I will help you.”
I asked it, “Why should I trust you to help me?”
“You will soon learn what I will do.” Seeing as I was powerless to do anything, I agreed.
Three weeks later, I went in to get x-rays for my leg. The doctors were shocked to see
how my leg was doing. The x-rays showed my leg was healing at an abnormally fast
pace. I didn't even have to ask, I knew who was doing it by now.
The night that I went to the doctor's office, I heard the voice again, but this time I was
awake. It had asked if I knew what it was trying to do. I knew that it was healing my leg,
but I didn't know what for. I simply replied with a, “No,” and fell back on my bed.
“I want you to be a powerful ally to me.”
I knew why he had said that, so I told it, "Well, what if I refuse to be working for you?”
It replied in an angry tone, “Then I will kill you and take your power for myself!”
Confused, I asked, “Why don't you simply kill me and take my power?”
It simply said, “While you possess your power, it is amplifies tenfold.”
Knowing that I might be able to save a few captured souls and learn something from it,
I told it that I would help him. After that, it said, “I will monitor you and keep your leg
healing at the speed it is now.”
I have to go get another x-ray in a few days, so once I learn if it's healed or not, and if
anything new comes up with the Tails Doll, I will write back ASAP. Oh, before I forget, I
do believe in the Tails Doll and have performed both curses. For everyone being held
wherever the Tails Doll hides, just be patient and hang in there.
____________________________________________________________________
Finally, Sal T. Dillo has written back... but will we be pleased by his new experiences?
This is a great moment for me. My master, the omnipotent Tails Doll, is taking me to
his den. Up until this time, he has communicated with me through either the Sonic R
game or the Tails Doll plush that I have in my room even now. He talks to me, but not
out loud. Mentally. In the past couple of days, I have been performing missions at my
master’s bidding, and now, he actually trusts me enough to take me to his lair.
One night, he simply appeared to me after I had caught him a particularly large group
of souls. But that’s another story. He actually appeared to me in person. Not as my
plushie, nor in the game, but for real. It was the second time I had seen him in person,
the first being when I preformed the curse for the first time. This encounter was no
less creepy. He just stared at me for a moment with those large, blank eyes. Then he
spoke.
“You have done well, my servant.” Knowing the consequences of dishonoring Tails
Doll, I bowed low.
“Thank you, master.” I replied.
“I believe it is time that I showed you your new home,” he said ominously.
New home? I didn’t know what he was talking about, but I didn’t question him. That was
another mistake that enticed painful results. Instead, I simply said, “Yes, master.”
The bright jewel that adorned my master’s head glowed brightly for a brief instant and
the next thing I knew, as all of your stories have claimed, I was in my room. But it was
not my room. No, there was something wrong. This was a mere copy of my room. Do
you know how it is when you draw something really good, but when you try to recreate
it, you just can’t get the same effect? Well, that’s how this was. But I was fine with it.
“Where are we?” I asked stupidly.
“Why, in your room of course,” came the reply. “This is where you will be stationed
until further notice. If there is anything you need… do not hesitate to ask.” And with
that, my master was gone.
His final words had left me wondering. Would I really get anything I wanted just by
asking? This deal was getting better and better. I decided to try it out. Since I had
missed dinner that night, I chose to wish up a pizza. Large, stuffed crust, drowned in
meat. That’s how I like it. To my surprise, it coalesced from thin air, falling into my
outstretched arms. Now excited, I opened the box and bit into a particularly meaty
piece.
No lie, it was the most delicious piece of pizza I had ever had.
I quickly proceeded to eat the entire pizza, savoring every mouth-watering bit. When I
was done with the pizza, however, I did not feel full in the least. But I did feel satisfied.
It seemed as if I could keep eating pizza forever without getting full, or go for millennia
without eating and still not be hungry. Awesome. I figured I probably hadn’t gotten any
heavier, either. Oh, the wonders of the Tails Doll.
After my dinner, I decided to take a look around. I left my room, stepping out into a
cheery, well-lit hallway. There were many other rooms and I even passed a few people
who I recognize to have put stories on this site. Fools as they were, most of them
seemed miserable and unfulfilled. However, I passed several who seemed more than
happy to be here. These I conversed with cheerfully. We talked about different things,
but with one person in particular, we talked about why everyone here seemed so
down. I mean, we got whatever we asked for, our quarters were comfortable… what’s
not to like?
Then his expression turned dark and grim, his confident half-smile gone in an instant.
He told me that they were upset to have lost their souls. However, that wasn’t all.
Apparently, those who served the Tails Doll grudgingly did not boast the luxuries that I
had. Those who served unwillingly were stowed away in cramped, unkempt rooms
completely stripped of any furniture. They got nothing when they asked and when
they walked the halls, rather than the pleasant view I saw, they perceived only
darkness. And that was the way it would be until they submitted to the will of the Tails
Doll.
Suddenly, the good-nature returned to his face and we laughed together at the fools’
plight. Who was actually stupid enough to resist the Tails Doll when yielding to him
instantly guaranteed better living conditions? After that, we parted ways. I returned to
my room and went to sleep.
The next morning, I awoke to the sound of my alarm clock. It was playing “Can You
Feel the Sunshine?” I lay in my bed for a minute or two, just listening to it, before
getting up. I donned my favorite clothes, which - thanks to the power of the Tails Doll -
I now have multiple copies of. I silently exited my chamber and quickly made my way
toward my master. I found him in his room, which was actually more of a suite, with his
back facing the door. However, he somehow knew of my approach.
“Kneel.” His voice was quiet but powerful. I did as he told. The Tails Doll turned to face
me, his expression impossible to read. “It is time for your first real mission,” he said.
“Real mission?” I inquired.
“Why, yes,” he said. “So far, you have brought before me only meager amounts of
souls at a time. From this day forward, you have no job, no duty, no commitment but to
me.” When I remained silent, he continued. “From now on, you will be given a daily
quota of souls to fill. I care not how you come by them. I will now grant you your first
powers. As you become higher in rank, you will earn more, but for now, you will be
allotted only what is necessary.”
I felt a tingling sensation cover my entire body. It felt good. So good, in fact, that when
it suddenly ceased, I fell to my knees, gasping. The Tails Doll continued. “You now
have the ability to sense the presence of souls and to take them. You have also been
given the power to teleport from this realm to the realm of the living at will. Bear in
mind that when you teleport, you can only arrive at certain points. Whenever you
teleport to the realm of the living, you will find yourself in your original room. When you
teleport back here, you will arrive at the reception area. Now, go.”
I stared at him for a moment, not quite comprehending what was happening. Teleport?
Could I really teleport? If so, how? My question was soon answered.
“What is the matter?” he asked.
“I don’t know how to teleport,” I replied timidly, and then closed my eyes, expecting a
blow. The Tails Doll merely sighed with irritation.
“It is easy,” he said as if it were the simplest thing in the world. “All you must do is
think. For once. Imagine yourself in the mortal world.”
“Thank you, master,” I replied, truly more grateful that he hadn’t hurt me than that he’
d taught me how to teleport. I scrambled out of the room and closed my eyes tightly,
trying to envision myself in my old room, playing my Gamecube.
When I opened my eyes, I was there. I was amazed to say the least, but I had no time
to dawdle. I had been given a thirty soul quota for the day and I didn’t intend to waste
any time. The quest was simple. I had to merely hunt down people, reach into their
bodies, and confiscate their souls. I was then to bring them to him. However, he
preferred virgin souls to tainted ones, since feeding on evil did little to satisfy his
appetite, considering how much darkness was already in him. I had resolved to bring
him only the most unadulterated souls I could find. However, this was hard. The world
was already so filled with evil that it was long before I could find even one pure
enough to serve my purpose.
A girl. A young girl of six years. I almost felt regretful of what I had to do, but it could
not be helped. This girl, though young, was a relatively passionate fan of Sonic the
Hedgehog. Go figure. When I found her, she was in her room on the second floor of
the building. Of course, no one in their right minds would leave a six year old at home
alone, so I deducted that someone was there. As such, I could not use the front door. I’
d have to try for the window. Fortunately, there was a hearty tree in the yard adjacent
to the window. Getting in would be the simple matter of climbing the tree, venturing out
onto a branch, and getting into the window from there. Fortunately the window was
unlocked.
As I hopped inside, the sight that greeted me would have melted my heart… had it not
already been frozen solid. You see, it wasn’t until this point that I knew my objective
would be an innocent six year old girl. She was playing one of her many Sonic games.
That’s when it struck me. Maybe, being so pure of heart, she would be of more use to
my master as a servant than a sacrifice.
Fortunately, the girl did not look toward me. Had she done so, the scheme I was
forming even as I watched her might have been ruined. I quickly exited the way I came,
climbing back down the tree. I only had one shot at this. If that had failed, I would have
had to kill the girl, something even I didn’t have the heart to do. In fact, I didn’t have
any heart at all.
I mentally contacted the Tails Doll, requesting the temporary ability to impose subtle
influences on people. He approved, granting me this capability for a limited time
period. I quickly used this power to slowly assert my will on the child’s parents.
Whatever they were thinking before, they now had the sudden urge to spend the night
in a motel room. I was counting on the fact that they’d want a babysitter…
I wasn’t disappointed. Moments later, a lean man walked out of the front door. I played
it cool, as if I had no interest in the house whatsoever. As expected, he walked over to
me.
“Young man,” he started. “I am planning on being out for the night, and I need
someone to watch over my six year old darling while I’m gone. Are you aware of any
babysitters whose service you might recommend?”
“Why, yes I am, sir,” I replied. “In fact, I do a little bit of babysitting myself.”
Needless to say, the man was skeptical. It was obvious that he wanted very badly to
go out that night, compliments of yours truly, but it was also apparent that he didn’t
quite trust me. I exerted a little more influence and any doubts he had as to the
legitimacy of my business, which was completely illegitimate, were annihilated. I could
hardly believe it had worked. Was this telepathic ability so potent as to cause a man to
leave his daughter alone with a complete stranger? The fool. He asked me about the
pay. I told him that it was free since I wasn’t too experienced, which seemed to delight
him. With a quick handshake, he thanked me and disappeared back into his home. I
wiped my hand on my pants. Unbelieving scum. I can hardly believe I used to be on
their level.
Soon after, both of the girl’s parents came out. After a few parting words and the
usual exchange of information, they bade me take care of their precious angel and
left. As I entered the house, I saw that the girl was waiting for me at the bottom of the
staircase to the right. We stared at each other for a moment dumbly.
Then she said in a voice so sweet as to be that of an angel, “Mommy and daddy said
you’re here to play with me.”
I smiled endearingly, although I’m sure it looked more like a scowl. “Yes…” I replied, “I’
m here to play with you.”
The girl smiled and started up the stairs, bidding me to follow. I did. This would be
easier than I thought.
She showed me up to her room and introduced me to her teal Gamecube, which she
had apparently named “Cubey”. She had every Sonic game for the Gamecube you
could imagine, save Shadow the Hedgehog. Of course, this included Sonic Gems
Collection, which I immediately suggested. She popped it in and the opening screen
came up. When it came time to choose the game, I advised Sonic R. However, she
insisted that we shouldn’t play that one due to the curse. So, she knew about that.
This girl was surprisingly intelligent for her age. Perhaps there was something special
about her…
In any case, I exerted the slightest reserve of influential energy on her to… convince
her to choose it. However, she still persisted in defying my counsel, persevering to
warn me about the curse. In the end, I had to use a rather large quantity of persuasive
energy before she would agree. Strange for a young one to be so resilient.
When we first began to play, I noticed that she had already, to an extent, completed
much of the game. However, she had stopped before unlocking the Tails Doll. So I got
her to unlock him. It wasn’t long before we had completed the game 100%. Then, I
suggested that we do tag mode as the Tails Doll and tag Super Sonic.
It goes without saying, this completely freaked her out. She fervently declined,
momentarily free of my influence. I implemented my new power once more to make her
do it. By the time she had calmed down, I was completely exhausted. She did it. She
tagged Super Sonic. As the Tails Doll. I gathered what little energy remained in me
and prepared to calm her down once more when my master appeared, but it was for
naught. The girl remained completely inert as he drifted through the screen and into
the room. He stared down at the girl for a long moment, who stared back at him in
return. I knew what he was doing. He was examining her soul. Precariously. It was as if
the Tails Doll actually feared this little girl. He let out a peel of laughter, breaking the
silence. Surprisingly, the girl laughed back.
My master turned to me. “Good work, my faithful servant,” he said. “This may well be
one of the seven souls of prophecy.”
Completely confounded, I merely gazed back dumbly. He laughed again. “To put it
simply, it is said that to harness the true power of the Chaos Emeralds, one must
acquire the souls of the seven heralds, one for each of the Emeralds. These souls are
the key to unlocking the mysteries of these gems. The seven souls are said to be
recognizable by their purity and this girl’s soul is one of the most wholesome I have
ever seen.”
At hearing this, I knew I had done my master a great service. Hopefully one worthy of
reward. I wasn’t disappointed. My master appointed me to the duty of taskmaster,
rewarding the loyal servants who met their daily quota of souls and punishing those
who did not. I was one of many taskmasters, but at least this is a step up. By now my
master has acquired several of the seven souls, so I have a warning.
Beware, all ye unfaithful.
The end is coming.

Solomon E. returns with a new mission he cannot possibly fulfill for the Tails Doll...
It's been a long time since I've emailed you last. The whole Chaos Emerald thing was
the last time I was able to get anything out there. I'm on Earth right now, in a library
somewhere in Tennessee. I was sent on a mission to get a soul from a woman... a
very important woman. Why lie? I know where I am, I'm home.
In the library where I used to study, I'm looking out the window at people I know.
Nothing's changed here in the years I've been gone. I think it's been years. There
were no calendars where I was. No way to tell how long I had been there. I can't get
the soul I’m supposed to; there's no way in hell I could harm my own mother.
My mother's soul. He wants it, not because of its purity; he wants it because it is, as he
put it, "full." I don't understand it. I'm not expected to. But I hate him. I'm going to try to
escape and see what I can do about it. I think it's unlikely that I'll be successful. And
even if I escape, I don't think my story's over.
Now that we have the present out of the way, I'd like to tell you all about my stay with
the Tails Doll.
I found out where I was. Mu. I was in the place people go after Death. It has no real
name. It is only referred as Mu, as a sick and sarcastic joke from the Tails Doll saying
that people think they know everything. I can't understand the joke. That's his own
description of the name. It hasn’t been horrible. I've only been made to punish millions
of souls a day. I hate the torture, but at least I'm not being tortured myself. I don't
enjoy what I do, I just enjoy not being the one it's being done to. Of course, that will
probably change once I attempt to escape.
I've moved up through His ranks. I'm his Left Arm, as he puts it, as all ranks are given
a name of part of His body. He, being the highest, is the Jewel, and those I am to
torture, are called Soles, another cruel pun. For one so evil and maniacal, he has an
interesting sense of humor.
When I say maniacal, I don't mean he's insane. He's anything but that. He's too
meticulous, too careful, to be considered insane. He's just pure evil. I have no idea if
he enjoys what he does or not. I only know he kills, he has no choice, and he tortures,
but not directly. On another note, he gives his highest ranks beauty, or what he calls
beauty. I have a red rhinestone protruding from my hair, almost the size of my head,
and unremovable red and white shoes. no he's got the cursor goodbye

Demon in the Closet gives us the heads up on his situation, and to share of the the
Doll's -- poetry?!
It's me, the Demon in the Closet.
Call me crazy, but I think the cursed one was mad at my last entry.
I can feel his presence.
He wants me to tell you...
This piece is called: It's my life
Why? Why did you lock me up?
Why should I be the one to suffer?
I'm not the first to be outsmarted by him
And I guarantee I won't be the last.
He's done it to you hasn't he?
Yet I'm forever punished
For one mistake.
You created me, so isn't
This another of your errors?
And now I change my primary function.
I'm getting out of here.
My new purpose: Kill.
I've escaped before you know,
Well my soul has, anyway.
It's not great, but I can achieve
My purpose, with satisfaction.
They are happy with their progress,
My victims, they are happy when
They see me. They regret it later.
However, it is a hollow satisfaction,
I realise the only life I really want to
Destroy is yours,
And so, Dr Ivo Robotnik, I'll take your life
So I can have mine.

Aly write us with a short, but scary tale...
It was another ordinary day when I went to help my mom clean out the garage.
So I left my dogs Sophie and Bear inside the house. I went and cleaned for three
hours. When I can back to the house, no dog came.
I called there names "Sophie" "Bear"
Nothing.
Then I walked into the hall way and I saw them lying down dead. One died from
bleeding to death and I'm not sure how the other one died. I looked at the wall. It was
covered with blood. There, written in pure blood were some words that looked like:
Can you feel the sunshine? Can you? T.D.

Wrath the Wolf checks in to alert us to his newest nightmare, and linger fears...
Hello. Me again. Call me Wrath the Wolf. I will not show any other information on
myself, because it seems I'm being targeted. When I played Sonic Riders Zero Gravity
(the first Riders was terrible) and I felt a chill down my spine. When a day past after
playing ZG, I had a dream - a nightmare to be exact. Here's what happened:
My family and some other people were on a vechicle, in space, but it looks like the
ARK! I saw Sonic, and I asked him what happened, and how many people are here.
Sonic said only 67 people are here.
67 people?! I thought?
Then in my dream Sonic said, "Look over there at the earth." I was so scared when I
saw the Earth then. The oceans water were replaced with lava, or blood, and the
green land turned dessert like! The earth gave off a red aura. Sonic said that the
Tails Doll took over. It was too late. We couldn't stop him... But then I asked Sonic
where we were going, and he said "Mobius."
Then I woke up.
In another dream I had, I was alone, in a great black nothing, or so I thought! Because
then, the Tails Doll showed up! The tails doll said "NoW yOu CaN nEvEr EsCaPe! I
thought "Why?" Tails Doll replied in "YoU kNoW mY wEaKnEsS!"
"WHAT?" I said. Then I woke up. I will look over the data, don't worry.
____________________________________________________________________
Hello. It's Wrath the Wolf again. I feel threatened.
First one of my dreams was Sonic, giving me the Blue Chaos emerald. The next day, I
dreamed that Shadow was after me for the Emerald. The next day, before I went to
bed, I played Shadow the Hedgehog, and completed a Pure Hero-Hero Mission, and in
my dream, Shadow was protecting me from the Tails Doll! I then locked the game up,
knowing in my heart that if I complete a Dark mission, he will be after me.
Anyway, I found out the Tails Doll's weakness! I'll post it in another email, because my
Sonic Riders:Zero Gravity copy has errors sometimes when I play Tails Missions. This
HAS to be his work -- trying to make me play Sonic R. But it won't work this time! This
weakness needs to be done on the REAL Doll, or it won't kill him the next time!
I'm writing this while playing Live and Learn. And in my next dream, I saw Earth,
covered in flames. People dead on the ground, and the Tails Doll standing on a
throne, with his minions. I was flying, like Silver the Hedgehog would. They didn't see
me, however. I'm scared. Will he be after me next? If so what for? Someone please,
help me! I feel closer, closer, that he is here! I feel, an evil being behind me..
But Sonic is observing Tails Doll.
I am nothing but a coward.

Do you remember Miki2006? She's still on her quest to find her brother, and she's
sent us an update!
I'm here to give you updates on my mission. First, when I'm not busy with my mission
to kill Tails Doll and get my brother back, I have been reading the stories. I think my
brother may be one of these seven pure souls -- otherwise, why bother taking him
when I was willing to give my soul for his? The Doll fears me. I think that like seven
souls, there are seven protectors to prevent him getting them. I would be one because
I was Joey's sister. I have to cut this short he's trying to get one of his followers to kill
me. I'll talk to you later.
Damn that girl, she's revealed that each pure soul has a guardian to protect them and
she is right. I do fear her, because if she finds the other guardians, they can easily
take back the pure souls but, I'll kill her before that happens and the creator of this
site -- and anyone who tries to stop me.
Can you feel the sunshine
____________________________________________________________________
DarkRyder feels the grip of the Doll tightening upon his very life and sanity...
Am I Sonic fan? Well, I do like Sonic games...But, I don't aim to buy every single one.
However, after hearing about Sonic R so much, I wanted it...Badly! It was like a fever! I
was constantly on the search for it!
Wait, let me back this up, so you understand more. I had heard of the Tails Doll
before, while reading a fan-fic on Gamefaqs, and I thought he was just...well, a Tails
Doll! But, I started seeing the name more often, and so I started asking people. You
all know the story, and I learned of it. I was fascinated by this Tails Doll! I didn't
actually believe in the curse, but I pretended to believe in the curse. Why? It's simple
really. For some excitement! To give me something to be afraid of!
One night, after listening to "Can You Feel The Sunshine?" on Youtube, I got up and
turned around. The lights were off, and I saw a red dot. My heart skipped a beat, and
quickly rushed to my light to turn it on. Light makes me feel safer, even though I like
the dark. Anyways, it actually turned out to by my Yobo Wiimote charger, which the
red light was reflected in a mirror. I couldn't help but laugh. I laughed at the fact of how
foolish I was.
A couple of days later, I got Sonic Gems Collection. I immediately jumped to Sonic R. I
thought to myself "This is gonna be quicker than Super Sonic!" for, I am very good at
videogames. Anyways, I played through it for a couple of straight hours, and I had
gotten 100%. I was disappointed at how short it was, and how boring it is with only one
player, for, no one ever plays with me. Out of resentment, I suppose, because I always
beat them, and perhaps disinterest, for I am the only one that I know of that likes to
play.
I went to four player tag, and I hovered the cursor over the Tails Doll. I couldn't help
but grin. But before I selected him, I stopped and decided to wait until midnight (to
help the spooky atmosphere, and scare myself more). When it was around midnight, I
turned off all the lights, and closed my door. I went back to Sonic R, four-player tag,
and selected the Tails Doll. Not too long after a minute, I had gotten everyone but
Super Sonic, which I had expected. I chased after Super Sonic relentlessly. He was a
real pain, and I was very frustrated. Super Sonic hit a wall ever so slightly, but it was
enough so that I could catch up to him, and tag him. At which point, the power went
out.
I was very confused, and even a little spooked, which I liked. But soon, after I heard
thunder, and realized that the storm might've knocked out a power line. However, I
thought I could see a faint glow on the TV...The glow of the Tails Doll. I thought
nothing of it, thinking it was just the afterimage. You know, like when you stare at
something intently, and then close your eyes, and you see a somewhat shape of it?
Well, I decided to go to bed...Not like there was anything else to do. As I was going to
bed, I was constantly thinking of the Tails Doll. I could not pull my thoughts away from
him. When I fell asleep, I had a dream, that felt, and seemed so real.
I found myself in what looked like a gym locker room. People were laughing at me, so I
snapped at them, which only made them laugh at me more. So, I just opened, what
must've been, my locker. Inside was a note, folded several times, and at this point
everyone stopped and started walking away silently. I took the note, and opened it. It
read Meet me at 8:00. But...meet who, and where at eight? And 8am or 8pm?
Anyways, the day in the dream just disappeared, and I found myself going to bed. I
slipped in, and closed my eyes. However, they were immediately shut tighter, as I saw
something red in my black vision. I started to feel a pain in my body, and I arched my
because of the pain. I then painfully called out "Mom..." and that is when I opened my
eyes...
Was it ever a dream? Or did that actually happen? I couldn't tell, because when I
opened my eyes, my back was arched, and I was still calling out for my mom a little.
Also, my whole body was sweating and my heart was racing. I really don't know if that
was a dream, or real life. For my sake, I hope it was just a dream. And if it was a
dream, was that the REAL Tails Doll, and not my imagination, trying to pull me to the
other world? Real or not, I am now a little more cautious about the Tails Doll. I'm
careful not to get scared when I'm tired, because that's when my mind really lets
loose. Still, I do occasionally when I want to have fun...Except I will never play as the
Tails Doll again on Sonic R.
The cursed doll...It truly is a curse...The worst kind...The kind that occupies your mind,
and constantly makes you worry. Whether Tails Doll is real or not, his curse is 100%
real...Can you live life with the curse? You ought to forget about the curse, and the
Tails doll.
Oh! And before I forget, I have a question for you. Can you feel the sunshine?
Cause I can only feel the dark and beautiful moon...
____________________________________________________________________
A lass named Rouge claims that the Doll may have been partly her fault...
I am partly to blame for the origin of the Tails Doll. You see, I created it for a friend
long ago, and... well.... here's what happened.
I was sitting there, thinking of what a 12 year old girl would want. A boyfriend? No. I
can't just crochet one out of yarn. A dog? No. She'd want a real one. A father? No.
Not enough yarn to do that. What about a friend?
A doll, perhaps.
I stared down at my crochet hook and yarn, then at my shelf, full of hand-made Sonic
Dolls. "Ha," I thought, "10 years old and I already know how to crochet." I remembered
that my friend loved Miles "Tails" Prower. And frankly, I had never heard of any Sonic
R. I decided to make a Tails Doll -- but not just any Fox doll... a special one.
I picked up my tools and worked on the Doll for the next few hours.
Then, I looked it over. It was woolly and warm. It stared at me, emotionless. I decided
to add the final touches. Life.
I took a Life Gem from my box of voodoo and put it on a piece of wire I had sewn onto
the doll's head. Then, I picked up a vial of blood and a syringe and injected it into the
gem. This gave the doll veins and arteries. Then I took a human heart from a package
and put it in the doll's chest. I felt an immediate pulse.
One final touch at the risk of the doll tearing or ripping. That would be bad. I wanted
this special doll to live forever. So I took a bottle of Life Dust and inserted it into the
gem. Then, I sewed up the doll's chest and it sprang up immediately. It stared at me
and spoke. "I'M ThE TaiLS DOll, WaNNa PLAY?"
I chuckled. "No, but I know someone who does."
The next day, after I gave my friend the doll, I heard that there was a murder. My
friend had died. I stared at the newspaper and cried. Then I read a line on the page
that bore her last words... and gasped. That sentence stuck in my head like a coat of
wood glue:
"The doll came for me with an axe and he asked me if I could feel the sunshine. And
now I can. It hurts me so badly..."
____________________________________________________________________
GlowingPlank has had some rather nightmarish reveries of late. Could they be a call
from the other side...?
Call me GlowingPlank. So, I've been having some dreams about the Tails Doll.
My First dream: I was walking to class. When I got in, nobody was there. The lighting
was dark and with a tint of red. In other words, it looked completely depressing and
evil. I decided to walk out because i was totally creeped out. As I was walking through
the hall, I saw posters of the Doll -- covered in blood!
I proceeded and thought nothing of it. As I proceeded, I realized the walls were
covered with blood. I started to run when I saw a box, with regular tails plushies in it. I
kept running and saw another box, with Tails Dolls in it. I decided to pick up the pace. I
then came across a box with Tails Dolls covered in blood. I ran outside. Then the
dream ended.
Now, I'm a frequent blogger, so I started a super natural blog and posted about my
dream. A real mistake
Second dream: I was hanging out with my friends at Dorney Park (An amusement
park, if you didn't know.) We decided to go on the new ride, Voodoo. I never trusted
the ride, but I wanted to ride all the rides in the park, so I went on. As we got on, we
were told the ride needed maintenance and we had to get off. After we got off, none of
the rides were there. I turned around to see my friends reactions, but they were gone.
I started to run when I realized that everything was black.
Except for a light.
You know what light I'm talking about.
As I caught a glimpse of his face, I saw that I was back in the park, and I saw my
friends' corpses. "That bastard,' I thought to myself. I was overwhelmed with rage. I
charged at the Doll. I was trying to destroy his gem. He knocked me off of him --and
yes, he is strong. I heard a crack and that was the end.
The Cuts: Ever since then, I had been waking up and seeing cuts on my arm. It's
been a long time since this happened, and now they are scars. I stopped researching
the doll and the cuts stopped. I thought that I needed people to hear my story. I fear
that if I keep up the research, he might step out of my dreams and into reality. I need
to do more research to stop him though.
That song: Flex period in my school. Flex is like a free period in my school. I was
sitting there drawing Sonic characters when I heard the song.
You know, THAT SONG.
I heard it clear as crystal. I had to get it out of my head so i tried to think of a different
song, but then I heard "Living in the City." It was so strange. I heard the song the for
the whole period
The Urge: Then about a week after that, I had this sudden urge in 4th period to draw
the Tails Doll. Luckily, I had no paper near by so I couldn't draw him and preform the
other form of the curse. I'm still alive, but the tails doll can attack anybody!

Very Scared Plum sends us this tale of tears and fears...
I have a roleplay board with extra boards for those who don't want to RP 24/7.
Anyway, a user friend named John posted a picture of the Tails Doll which creeped
me out. I am a fan of Sonic, but only owned one game for GBA or Game boy advance.
He said one way was to unlock the Tails Doll was to play the original Sonic R. I went
to my friend Vallery's house, since she still owned a SEGA and I bought a copy from a
used game store that not only sold used games for current systems, but systems no
longer made, like original NES and stuff.
The guy behind the counter warned me, saying "Be careful. Some say the Tails Doll
eats those who unlock him." Anyway, I played and unlocked it despite him. Nothing
happened. In fact, we went back for the Gamecube remake and it still did nothing.
As a last ditch effort, we tried playing in the city backwards with a drawing of Tails Doll
in a locked room. We went into the master bathroom and did it.
Still nothing.
Vallery jokingly said "Maybe, like 'Bloody Mary' you have to say the line from can you
feel the sunshine to get him" I shrugged and chanted "Can you feel the sunshine does
it brighten up your day" The next thing that happened still haunts my dreams.
The Tails Doll appeared and snatched Vallery's soul away. I tried to stop him, but he
stabbed my arm and that was the last time I saw my friend alive. She was dead now,
and I was bleeding badly.
Her parents found me and assumed an axe murderer had come in and tried to kill us.
Being lucky and surviving, I feel so horrible about Vallery, so I decided to warn people
not to try the new way, which is like Bloody Marry -- never look in the mirror and sing
"Can you Feel the Sunshine? Does it Brighten up your Day?"
Because, it only ends in tears, and for me, Fears...

1337w00tn3ss is a thirteen year old with strong views on the Doll....
Ok, a couple months ago, I was on the computer doing some usual web-surfing and
while looking up Sonic videos on Youtube, I stumbled across something called 'The
Tails Doll Curse'. Yeah, sounds stupid, and that's what I thought, but I watched one of
those How-to-summon-him things. It seemed interesting to me, cuz I heard a lot of
people say he was real and a lot of people saying he was fake. I was online chatting
with 2 of my friends (we'll call them B and K). I tell B of the curse thingy and she goes
"Sounds a little demented." (I had 100% and all characters unlocked on Sonic Gems
for Gamecube for AGES!) Also, to people who claim to play Sonic Gems collection on
PS2, it was only released on Gamecube, it says so on the case!
(Editor Quacker's note: Only in the USA)
I told K the same thing and she goes "Hmm, so you gonna try it?" I wanted to, and I
kept looking up more info on this curse, and I eventually came to your site. A lot of
odd-ball stories, I tell ya. But anyways....
I tell B and K I'll do the curse (keep in mind, this is Saturday at around 10:30 at night)
B replies, "Are you sure?" She looked at your site as well. "What if he IS real?"
K replies in the same tone. They both stay on until I tell them how to do it, so they
know what I'm doing. I did the bathroom curse-- the one where you draw a picture of
the Tails Doll, play 'Livin' In the City' backwards and lock yourself in the bathroom at
11:00 until the song's over.
I tell B and K I'm doing the curse thing (at this point B is now telling me that it's
pointless and that I'm basically a moron; K is just concerned) and they both stay on.
Meanwhile, I'm in the bathroom in the dark, listening to 'Livin' In The City' backwards
on my mp3. A little over 5 minutes later, the song finishes and I sigh "Well, guess it
was a fake." (I knew the Tails Doll wasn't gonna leap outta nowhere, but being in the
dark listening to something backwards would make you a little jumpy) I send them a
message: 'Hey I'm back. See? Nothing to worry about, I'm perfectly fine. Turns out the
curse was bogus, what a ripoff! lol '
B is relieved although disappointed that I attempted the curse in the first place and
signs off. K is extremely happy that nothing happened and then signs off.
Even though I was okay, I started having weird dreams involving the Tails Doll and
started getting a lot less sleep. I come to school Monday extremely fatigued. K and B
show worried expressions to me when I see them, but B says as the school days go on
that "You're just being paranoid!"
K on the other hand shows concern at my tired expression and tries to help me out.
(She was always a closer friend to me than B ever was, I'm glad i trusted her more)
Three days go by, and I'm reduced to sleeping in the classroom. I tell B about it and
she says "You need to tell your mom about this." I shrug it off and talk to K later in the
day. K says, "Are you sure you're okay? This has been going on for awhile..." She
lends me her Knuckles plushie that she had "borrowed" from her brother, which only
comforts me slightly. Then I downloaded 'Open Your Heart' on Airmp3.net and felt
better as I listened to it on my computer and on my mp3.
Funny thing though, the artist was under Sonic Team, and I only had it on there for
one day, and after I came home from school, I pulled up my media player and it was
wiped off of my entire computer. I tell B about it, she's just angry at my belief in the
whole curse thing. She even said her mother thought I was stupid for believing in it.
"Look through your enitre library, maybe you just missed it." I did, I rechecked at least
3 times! "Then just redownload it and quit being so paranoid already!" I go back to
airmap3.net to get the same link, but something was wrong with it....It said 101% of
download complete (perhaps leet speak for lol? I have not yet figured that out) and it
was now a text document. Coincidence? Not to K, when I told her, she was actually
extremely worried about me, since I could barely eat or sleep due to my anxiety of this
whole damn thing. I tried to play Sonic CD on Sonic Gems Collection (and I was on the
last zone, too!) So I beat Eggman, and Amy's jumping up and down and when the
screen is supposed to white and then to the 'Sonic Boom' sequence, my tv screen
goes gray and makes a noise like a car horn went off. (My brother and mother and
father all heard it as well)
Of course my parents never knew that I did the curse in the first place...That is, until B
tattled on me after I told her of my latest nightmare (I had a dream where the Tails Doll
was literally cutting me open, replacing all my blood and organs and bones with
stuffing, then he stitched me up to be one of his many additions to his collection, it
was very graphic) And my mom yelled at me for scaring her, when she wasn't even
worried! I felt so angry and I felt hate towards B, pure hatred......K knew I was ready to
snap, I was at my wits end, no one believed me! Not my friends, not my family, no one
except her! I took most of my anger out on myself unfortunately, and left scars on my
arms.
Now I still occasionally worry and look over my shoulder when I walk alone. I am doing
a lot better for the most part, but I really am curious about some things-- I've heard
that if you get all of the Time Stones in Sonic CD, it's supposed to reverse this effect
the curse has, but I have all but one in my new game data file. It's doing everything in
its power NOT to let me get the last one, and in Sonic R I've noticed Super Sonic
actually being Stalked by the Tails Doll which weirded me out. I do believe in the curse
and so does my friend K, that the Tails Doll is a spirit (perhaps misunderstood, evil,
who knows?) reincarnated into his plush form. However all these "coming out of the
TV or closet or computer" theories are a bit far-fetched. I am not flaming on these
other stories, but they do seem a bit unrealistic. However, I still do worry about K's
sake as well as mine, since we are the only ones in perhaps our entire school that
believe in it.
There's my story, no massive murders, no jacked up plush dolls with weapons, no
possessed people, just my point of view going through this whole curse thing. About
as real as it gets, sorry if it's not that interesting as other tales, but mine actually is
real.

Sonic 123 sends us this tiny tale...
I have encountered this doll, and I know this evil. It almost had my soul. One
afternoon, I was swimming when all of a sudden it started to rain, so I went inside.
When I got inside, I played my copy of Sonic R (99 percent beaten), I just needed to
finish the Tails Doll. Ten minutes later, I beat him in a race.
Later that night, I was in bed with my Sonic and Tails plushies...
WAIT! I don't have a Tails plushie!
Oh, its just my cat.
The next morning, my parents found me dead. In the air, one could make out the
faint strains of "can you feel the sunshine does it brighten up your day"
I said it almost had my soul. I never said I survived.
The tails doll will kill you...
____________________________________________________________________
Ah, a new recruit to the world of the Tails Doll. Welcome, Sierra... welcome...
It all started when my brother, Cole, got the Sonic R Game... In three days he beat
the game with all characters unlocked and all Chaos emeralds. 100% Complete!
Then my brother asked me to play it. My name is Sierra W. and we at first didn't know
about the Tails Doll so I said, "Okay, I think it will be fun. It’s a Sonic game after all,
what could go wrong?"
I was wrong about it being fun and wrong about saying, “It’s a Sonic game after all
what could go wrong?" I felt very uneasy while playing the game... I kept hearing this
faint voice saying in my head, “Can you feel the Sunshine?" I started to feel scared.
I asked my brother, "Hey, do you feel scared?" He shook his head. "No, why do you
ask?"
I really didn't know why, so I said, "Sorry, I guess it was my imagination." So then he
showed me how to play, I said, "This game is cool!" Then I unlocked a new character.
He looked like Tails except he had a red gem on his head!
"Hey, what's this?" I had shivers up my back. I was terrified to look at its eyes and the
blood red gem! "Cole, look! It looks like Tails! But it looks creepy."
Cole looked at it. "I wonder what this is? I'll go look on the internet." He came back with
the name Tails Doll. Even its name sounded creepy.
"Cole, does the Tails Doll Look creepy to you?" I asked.
Cole thought it over it a bit. "Only a little, why?"
"Well,” I began, “It makes me a little scared that's all."
Cole then shook his head and smiled. "Maybe it's our mind playing tricks on us?" So
Cole then went to the tag menu and decided to be Tails Doll.
"HEY! I got the Tails Doll! I should be the Tails Doll FIRST!" I grabbed the Game Cube
controller, then I hollered, “Mine! Keep away Cole!" I then tagged Amy, Eggman, and
Tails. Super Sonic was the last one for me to catch! Then I said, “Look, Cole, I'm
about to catch Super Sonic. Come look!"
Cole said, “Ya, let me see!" Then I got Super Sonic by sliding into him! I started to get
very scared. I looked away from the screen and as I was turning, I said, "Cole, I'm
scared! Something keeps saying, ‘Can you feel the Sunshine!’ in my head!"
Cole didn't answer; he was pale and kept pointing at the screen. He was trying to say
something. "Doll! It's the Doll!"
I asked, "What are you talking about?" I felt a tug at my long hair. "OUCH!" I yelled and
turned around. It was the Tails Doll! He was pulling my hair! I tried to scream, but
nothing came out of my mouth! I managed to say, “Cole, help!" I didn’t get an answer
so I looked around.
Cole wasn't there and the door was open! He had left me there to face it all alone! I
turned around and smacked the Tails Doll. He scratched me and left me a scar by my
eye. The Tails Doll then said, "Die, you foolish child." The lights in the house started
flickering and the Tails Doll laughed harshly. "You will now feel my wrath."
I cringed. "What did I do to you?" As I said this, the lights went out. "Mom, Dad, help!"
I could see the Doll's Gem. He was getting closer. I ran from the room! I remembered
my dad had a really big flashlight nearby. I grabbed it. Why did it make the lights go
out? I wondered foolishly. Unless maybe it doesn't like light?
I tried to turn on the flashlight, but it wouldn't work! I panicked! I took the battery out.
"Oh shoot! It's out of battery power.” I then remembered that we had some extra
batteries in the kitchen. I ran as fast as I could to the kitchen, but I heard the Tails Doll
coming down the stairs. "Where are you, child? Would you like to play? Play? PLAY!"
I screamed in my mind as I rummaged through the kitchen drawer and fumblingly put
the batteries in. One battery fell to the ground and rolled all the way to the stairs
where the Tails Doll was proceeding down. I heard it pick up the battery. I heard it
come into the kitchen. I didn't see the red gem though I was straining my eyes.
I was grabbed from behind and thought it was him when I heard, "Come on, Sierra!
Put the battery in!"
It was Cole! I struggled as sweat trickled down my face. My hands slipped as I finally
got the last battery in and turned it on. I shone the light at the kitchen door and the
Tails Doll was there! He screamed, "THE LIGHT! IT BURNS!"
He disappeared. The last thing Cole and I saw was the fading of the bloody red gem
and the last thing we heard was the Tails Doll saying, "I'll get you Sierra and Cole W.!
Also one question I have for you: CAN YOU FEEL THE SUNSHINE?"

ShadowedStranger95 returns with the continuation of her tale...
April 14th 2009, 10:32am
When I saw TD in my back garden I freaked and quickly finished the email so that I
could defend myself. I was talking on a chat with some friends from the Tails Doll
Research Lab so I told them what was happening. They freaked, too. Instead of
running, I decided to protect the house by pouring salt on the windowsill and chanting
every protection spell I could think of (I'm a Wiccan, I believe strongly in magick).
Luckily, it... kind of worked. He made that threatening little sign where you pretend to
slit your own throat and floated away. Big mistake. A few seconds later one of the chat
members - jean - told us the Tails Doll had arrived at their house. I'm so sorry, jean!
Good thing they're okay now. I should be more careful.
Lately, I've been having a lot of reoccurring dreams. Normally, they're about me at the
London Expo performing then the Tails Doll suddenly appears and rips my arm off,
but now it's a way more vivid dream and seriously scary.
I was walking down what looked like a spooky medieval dungeon corridor. Doors,
chains and burning torches lined the cobweb-covered rocky walls. Behind the doors, I
heard screaming; horrible screams of pain and despair. I ran faster and faster, trying
to reach the end of the corridor and escape. But it kept going and up ahead was
always dark like a bottomless pit. Suddenly, when I thought I would wake up, I heard a
heavy door slam shut somewhere in the distance. The sound of hurried footsteps
echoed around the walls. Ichigo came from the darkness running towards me. She
was terrified, yelling at me that I had to run, that something was wrong....
She stopped suddenly and her expression turned to one of pure horror and pain.
Ichigo fell to the ground with a knife in her back. Floating behind her, half cloaked in
shadows, was the Tails Doll. My friends have told me this dream was his way of trying
to scare me. To weaken me. I'm not giving up. I'm a hunter and I'm gonna act like one!
Not to mention Ichigo gave me a Sonic plushie to go with my Tails plushie so they can
protect me.
11:01am
Oh yeah.
Plenty more odd sightings of the Tails Doll lately. Just the usual. I see him waving at
me from a hole in the ceiling at school, catch a glimpse of him in the forest on the way
home. I think I'm starting to get used to it. Pretty soon maybe I won't be scared of him.
One thing's for sure.
Whether my soul be pure or tainted, dark or light, I'm gonna stop that doll. He can
scare me all he wants. I'm not gonna let him win. With Justice as our leader, we will
never surrender.
NEVER.
____________________________________________________________________
Mimzy makes a tough choice, but is it the right one?
Many people suffered from the Tails Doll's appearance. But I - Mimzy - will not become
a minion to anyone! Here's my tale......
Today, my best friend had a gift from one of my relatives. It was a Gamecube with a
copy of Sonic Gems Collection. Since Miranda and I had to go to a basketball game,
she wanted to play Sonic Gems first. After school, she raced home.
I sighed. "Many people can't resist video games!"
"Hahaha!"
I went home and continued the rest of my fine day.
The next morning, I was walking to school until I saw a horrible sight... Miranda's
house had police and ambulances! I ran over to the crime scene.
Everyone was in Miranda's room. I looked in and saw Miranda dead. The Gamecube's
power cords wrapped around her neck and her heart was ripped out of her body. And
her best Tails plushie was ripped to bits next to her. I gasped. The police were
searching for any sign of a killer.
No killer was found.
I started to cry. My best friend was dead by a mysterious killer! It had to be the work of
a clever killer or the work of the Tails Doll....Until figured out I was him!
I was late to school so I had to leave her house. After school, I brought a notepad and
a pencil. I was busy drawing the Tails Doll being destroyed. I crumbled up the picture
and threw it in the trash. I was determined to stop this horrible beast from stealing the
lives of the people that I cared about.....or my own self. I entered Miranda's house and
walked back into her room. Miranda, obviously, wasn't in her room ... the power cords
weren't plugged into the wall, yet the screen was on Sonic R. I gulped and took a note
down on my notepad:
March 13 2001, 4:27 PM:
Now that Miranda is dead, I have no other friends to share happiness with just a
eternal black fire without light... only darkness. Darkness of hatred and death, hoping
to survive the pitiful world of hell... and as for Miranda, I hope she will be safe and
happy in heaven were she will be free to roam and frolic. As for I, Mimzy, must rot in
this never-ending maze... without hope...
I set down my notepad and turned to the TV. I started up the game and went to
"Grand Prix". But Sonic wasn't on the character list! I got confused and went to "Time
Attack" then clicked on "Tag 4 Characters"
Finally! Sonic was there! I scrolled over to the Tails Doll. Then read my notes one last
time.
"Feeling scared?" said a voice.
I turned around. "W-W-Who's There?!?" Nothing answered me. I was really scared
that I might end up as the same as Miranda. I had to be brave. I picked the Tails Doll
and the stage was Reactive Factory. "Ready...Set...GO!" The tag was on. The first
character I got was Egg Robo, then Metal Knuckles and Metal Sonic. Finally, I had to
catch Super Sonic. I raced around trying to catch the speedy hedgehog. Eventually,
we were colliding into each other, then I tagged him.
It went to the victory screen showing that I won. Until the TV flickered and went to
static. The Tails Doll started coming out of the television. He floated towards me.
"Does it hurt to bleed? I hope so..." A knife just appeared in his hand. I took a quick
glance and started to run away. I screamed as the Doll tried to catch me. I ended up in
the kitchen, backed up into a wall. The Tails Doll dropped his knife and floated up to
me again.
"Want to Play?" Metal claws came right out of his fuzzy paws. I was trapped! I knew i
was going to die.
Until I grabbed him and threw him into a pantry.
I ran home,went into my room,and shut the door behind me. "Come out dear child,
come and play with me," it said.
"No! Never! You're a demon who steals the souls of people that have friends to care
about! You may even take theirs....and..I...must...stop you!!!" I said.
The Tails Doll used his metal claws and ripped the door off. I screamed. I was so
freaking scared... I got on my bed and held my Pikachu plushie tightly. Hoping that the
Tails Doll would leave me alone... The doll circled around me then up to my face.
"Now I can play with your SOUL." Suddenly, he stabbed me! I fell to the ground.
Feeling faint or perhaps death's sting?
The doll looked at me. "Now, do you want to become a slave to me? Or do I have to
kill you?"
I had no choice...I wanted to live.. "I will become a minion to your army, Master..." I said
weakly.
"Excellent...." The Doll took the knife out of me and I suddenly healed. "Now...Go find
some souls for me slave!" I walked out of my room and went outside and started to
search.
Now I am a fellow slave of the Doll. But I have to figure out a way to get out of his
grasp without dying...
Next time I will find a way to escape...
~Mimzy
____________________________________________________________________
After all this time, I've finally gotten to Master_chief Michael's final tale... May he find
the rest he deserves.
It hasn't been long since I last wrote to you. Of course, that's because he's very
persistent. It's times like these that make me think back on my life. Of course, I don't
have much to live for right now. Running for so long... and now I am tired. Time for my
rest. So, Tails Doll, bring it on. You want me, you can have me. I'm tired of avoiding
you. This is fate I suppose.
I dunno what will happen... either I will die or I will be a servant to him... either way
brings damnation on me. Maybe it won't be all that bad. Some people are happy to be
his servant, just for being alive. Will I be happy too? Will I be happy to be alive and
serve him? I don't know.
I hope you remember me. I'm Michael. Why do I use my real name? Well, I figure he'd
find me anyway. Why try to hide that I'm the one writing? And as I predicted, he has
been able to find and track me down, numerous times.
I wonder why he's so evil... perhaps he feels cast aside my the world and seeks
vengence for the all cruelty and materialistic things that this world is known for.
Perhaps he's just evil because he finds it to be fun. There are many reasons for such
behavior.
I have learned much from this chase, however. When you can hear and feel the
sunshine, he is close. The louder and warmer it gets, the closer he gets. I can still
hear it... I can hear the sunshine... but I cannot feel it. I cannot feel anything. Not
warmth nor love nor hate nor cold. The Tails Doll... even without killing me, I am
already dead. Perhaps he's been toying with me (no pun intended) and this is how he
wanted it.
Please, whatever you do, do not say this curse is a hoax. Too many lives have been
taken and destroyed by this simple "hoax." Take it from me... six long years of
running. I've been traveling from place to place for too long. At first, it was a year or
two before he found me. But as time went on, he's been finding me quicker... and he
is not happy... I don't think I'm one of these pure souls he wants... which is why I doubt
I'll live through another fight with him.
Oh well... I guess... Hmmm? Yes, I can hear it...
Heeheehee... the music, it won't die. It won't get out. It won't leave me in peace. I'm
going crazy... heeheeheheheeeheheheheheheh...
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH.....!
...I cannot feel the sunshine, Tails Doll... I cannot.
Perhaps you'll show me what it fe-
____________________________________________________________________
Paranoia Agent has had an unbelievable journey, but his work is far from done....
I have been marked by the Tails Doll.
The doll took me to another world. At first, I thought I was in a video game, but I'm not
sure now... I was trapped for approximately five years. I was such a foolish child...
It was my twelfth birthday. My mom gave me the Sonic R game I'd always wanted. I
heard of the curse and wanted to test it -- so foolish.
I beat the game 100%, but nothing happened. I was disappointed. I went to bed. When
I woke up, I was laying on soft, damp grass. I looked around and saw that I appeared
to be in a Sonic game, judging by the loop-de-loop with a star post on it. I was
ecstatic. Convinced that I was dreaming still, I ran to the loop-de-loop and failed to run
up the curve. That was the best day of my life.
Three days later, I finally accepted the fact that I wasn't dreaming. I was scared. I had
no shelter, and the only food around were coconuts. I'd been running around trying to
find a town of some sort.
After a week, I found one. Not just a town, a city. I wasn't sure if I should enter
though... the sign read "Robotropolis". But, I was scared and alone, so I went inside.
Everyone had shut themselves up in their houses. Even the badniks or swat bots or
whatever were supposed to be there were gone. It almost seemed abandoned. I later
discovered Dr. Robotnik wasn't even there. He was dead. Because of the Tails Doll.
The accursed toy offered me power. If I became his angel of death, his messenger of
darkness, he would give me power only to be under that of a "deity". My other option...
death.
I had no choice. I accepted.
He turned me into a creature of the night... a bat. A Mobian. A furry. It wasn't so bad. I
had a slightly sadistic nature to begin with. It grew immensely. I slaughtered many. I
pleased my master greatly. A large portion of Mobius's population dropped. I was
enjoying the power...
Until I grew bored. I decided to do something daring. I challenged my master. He
accepted, amused. I was reduced to a whimpering puppy when he was threw with me. I
loved it. The pain... I felt alive. That's when it hit me.
I had become hollow inside. I was disgusted with myself. I betrayed my master, helping
the Mobians escape from him. It helped, to a degree. But I still felt empty. He and I
fought twice more. I won only once. I crushed the jewel, and he became nothing more
than a robotic toy.
Grateful, the Mobians spent months, a little under a year, researching the doll's
technology to send me home. Unfortunately, they could not turn me back into a
human. So, I am once again a creature of the night, never accepting sunlight
Amazingly, though, my mom knew it was me and welcomed me home.
A year passed. I found your website. I realized the Tails Doll could not be so easily
destroyed, for it lives in the fear of peoples' hearts. That is why, I will not stop until I
destroy all the Tails Dolls. I refuse to sit by knowing it's still hurting people.

You probably don't know #264 by name, but you may have read their posts on the
'net...
Hello. My name is #264, at least now it is. My old name is not important anymore...
I have exclusive rights to post this from Him. It took a while for him to respond, but he
said it was okay, as long as I start working a little harder.
To think I was safe, not doing any of the curses, but I was DEAD wrong.
I may have been like you, being a Tails Doll researcher. I believed in him, and of
course, do still. I was soooo fascinated with him -- a curse from a video game, how
cool is that!? I NEVER did the curses, not once! I was too much of a scardy cat. But as
a researcher, I knew of the myth: "Having to do ANYTHING that includes the Tails Doll
may result in the activation of the curse itself.", so I was always edgy, and had trouble
sleeping. I was good for about a year, nothing happening, even sleeping fine! But
then, I started to have dreams about him. They weren't scary at all, but they weren't
good either. All I saw was Him. I wasn't scared, but wasn't happy. Almost like having no
emotions at all...
After a month passed by, and about 15 of those dreams, I decided to download Sonic
R and an emulator for it, and try it out. It wasn't my kinda thing, but strangely
addicting. Then, in no significant part of playing it, I passed out, and had another
dream with the Tails Doll in it. I felt scared in this one, for the first time. He also spoke
to be for the first time. He had a strained voice and said to me "You have what I need".
I asked what he was talking about, by answering with the question "M-My Soul?". I
didn't think much of this event, as I knew it was a dream, but I wasn't waking up, which
I usually do after realizing I'm dreaming. He said 'No, your soul is not right. It's too
unballanced. I need you to work for me -- or parish." I asked what I would do, and
what would be the benefits. I ALWAYS ask what the benefits are. He said "If you would
for me, you will have immortality, and can do what you wish, as long as I approve of it.
If you deny me, you will suffer a stroke right here and now." I was scared, but did it. I
felt a shock after agreeing, and he vanished.
I woke up 1 year later. My house was abandoned and boarded up. My computer was
in front of me, good as new and with Internet connection. I was shocked an
disoriented, and then a transparent Tails Doll was next to me. I frantically asked him
what was going on, he said "After you signed yourself away to me, I killed you as
quick and painlessly as I could, and stored your soul in suspended animation in my
Realm. I reactivated you after I made your house unavailable, so you my live here for
eternity." I was still in shock, but accepted what has happened. Then after a few
second, i realized I had the body of a Tails Doll, and he noticed my shock, and said "I
have given you this vessel so you may do physical tasks for me." I asked "Like
what!?", which then he replied with what I had to do, on my computer...
I've been doing this for almost a year now. You know those people on the internet who
say "Tails Doll is NOT real!."? That is my job, along with some of his other
'Employees'. It's not so bad. I get to play games and do stuff on this computer. But it
gets boring being in this abandoned house for so long. I some times wish I was the
dolls who cursed people, but apparently "I wouldn't be able to DO that"! He wants us
to do these things so people don't bother him as much, so he has more of his "ME"
time! People interrupt that a lot. Honestly, I just wish life would go back to the way it
was...

Fox sends us part one of their tale, "Into the Woods"...
My name is Fox, and I have seen the Tails doll...
It was our annual easter party, and about 40 guests came, uncles, aunts, cousins,
and more. Even my best friend Trevor came. We were jumping on my neighbors
trampoline, until we saw a glowing light.
"What's that?" My little cousin Hunter asked. I wanted to say that too, until I knew what
it was.
"RUN," I yelled. My cousins came running with me, and we hurried into the woods.
"What the hell was that?" asked my older cousin Mitch. "You need to know," I said. I
told my cousins about the Tails Doll, and I'm glad I new about him... or we would have
died.
"Can you feel the sunshine?"
An orange plushie appeared near us. "Is that yours?" asked my cousin Lauren. "NO,"
said the creature. The "thing" had glowing black eyes, a red gem, and two fuzzy tails.
But most of all, it held.... a knife. "You. Fox. You," He cried out, his dark eyes fixed on
me. "You....." he kept saying. "What?" I said finally. "Fox.. I'm scared..." Hunter said.
"Listen." I said to the Tails Doll. "Spare my cousins." He laughed. "I'm here for you..."
He held his knife closer. "I have a question..." "What?" "You want to be... a Tails Doll?"
He knew?
I wanted to be one. I felt evil inside...
"You all run. Fox stay." My cousins ran away, screaming, except for Lauren and
Trevor. "Heh. Well, do you?" He stared at me, his eyes seemed to burn into my skin.
"No."
"Well, I'll kill you now!" He threw his knife at me, and, I ducked out of the way. Huh? I
thought. "No.... you die!" I never thought I would say that. But I did -- I grabbed his
knife and cut him up.
"WHAT THE HELL?" asked Trevor and Lauren. The doll's gem dropped to the
ground. I picked it up -- big mistake. The gem flew up, and attached to my head. "No!"
Then I threw the gem off my head, to the ground. The tails doll's gem stopped
glowing...
"Are... are we safe?" asked Lauren. "Yes," I replied quickly.
But deep down, I know the answer... was no.
To be continued.....

Let's kick of May, with the tale of October Wulf, who loves to play with fire...
Hello friends, you may call me October Wulf. Ever since I've seen your site and read
the stories I've become quite skeptical of the curse. Let me explain...
Years ago, I had become a rather big fan of the blue blur (I still am). I began buying all
the Sonic games available and started to beat every single one...
Except Sonic R, at first.
I had got the Gem Collection and thought it was pretty cool to play all the classic ones
that brought back old memories. When I got to Sonic R, I just played around, not really
trying to unlock anything specific...but accidentally unlocked the Tails Doll.
I didn't like him from the start. I had never really liked dolls, mostly just cause I thought
they were too girlish. But this one? This one, I became afraid of. The way it stared at
me just made me cringe in fear. I never really played as him at all -- until one
afternoon.
I decided to try and beat the game, 100%. I started off and effortlessly unlocked all the
stages, characters, and secrets. I was so happy that I had accomplished it. Then I
made a mistake.
I decided to play Tag mode.
I chose Super Sonic, since he was the best. It was rather easy... but then something
odd happened. I started to have trouble finding the Tails Doll. His marker would say
he was in one place and when I got there it would suddenly jump to the other edge of
the track. Eventually I found him, but he wasn't moving. He was just floating there. I
looked at him for quite some time, but he wasn't even facing me.
The next thing that happen, I will never forgot for the rest of my life.
Instead of turning around or taking off, he turned only his head, just so one eye was
looking at me. It made me jump and I dropped the controller and I accidentally tagged
him. My game froze. I tried to press the reset button, but no use. So I just turned it
off. That worked. I decided to just stop for the day and take a break.
Later, I wanted to play Sonic Adventure, which I was close to beating, but all my game
data was erased -- all of it! It was freakin' brand new. I tried to re-save some games
on it, but no use. I took it to a Gamestop and they couldn't tell what was wrong so I
trashed it.
Then 'that' night came -- the night I had my worst nightmare. At least, I think it was a
nightmare. I was laying in my bed, about to go to sleep when I began to hear that
infernal music.
"Can you feel the sunshine?"
My TV turned on and on it was a picture of the Tails Doll. Then it came out of my TV. It
was coming toward me and I grabbed the only thing I had and threw it at him.
Thank God, it was a Shadow plushie.
It hit him dead-on and he screeched, but not like a scream -- like a knife on a
chalkboard. Then he was gone. I woke up in a cold sweat, trembling. I hadn't
screamed so my parents didn't hear me. I swore to stop playing Sonic R for a while.
Until I found this site. I started to play again (against my own common sense), but I
sucked. Then it went missing. I was about to give up looking for it and was just going
to buy a new one, but as I walked out the door I tripped on something.
The game.
I started to play it again and I was really good I almost beat it in ten minutes, but I
stopped at 99%. I decided to have some fun and do that one "curse" where you play
"Livin' in the City" backwards at school, in the gym. I didn't stay in the bathroom, but
watched the clock. As soon as it hit a minute the steel, heavy, gym door blew open
from a large gust outside causing quite a lot of leaves to blow in. All my friends weren't
phased, but I was speechless. I ignored it however, and when I got home, right now at
this very moment, I beat it and tagged Super Sonic with the Tails Doll.
Nothing has happen...yet.
I pray I haven't made a horrible mistake.

Eliza writes us with her tale of a slumber party massacre....
My name is Eliza, but all my friends call me Knuckles for my hot temper and my
willingness to fight all the time. I go to your website everyday now, reading about HIM.
Two years ago, I barely even looked at it, thinking it was a big fat joke. That was the
worst mistake in my entire life.....
On June eighth, 2007, I received Sonic Riders for my sweet sixteenth from my two best
friends, Lauren and Alyssa. We were surfing on the internet when my third and final
guest Linseay came. Little did I realize that he was in her bag. Of course, she acted
normal and, 25 minutes later, brought out her father's Saturn and Sonic R that she
"borrowed". We played for a bit and Alyssa left to fix her hair. I was playing alone on
Sonic R as Lauren and Linseay got some cold pizza from the fridge. That's when he
claimed his first victim for the night.
Alyssa screamed bloody murder, and shouted about Lauren's "Tails plush." I ran
upstairs and tried to open the door. Locked. I ran back downstairs and grabbed the
sledgehammer from the garage and broke the bathroom door down. There she was,
and Alyssa seemed OK at first, but then she wavered and fell to the floor, with my
pocket knife in her back. She was stabbed to death. Then, soon afterwards, Lauren
started screaming, but almost stopped immediately. Sliding down the railing, I rounded
the corner and halted. Lauren was now dead, and the Tails Doll was advancing on
Linseay.
"Pathetic mortal." the Tails Doll said, swiping at her with my pocket knife, "You are no
longer a use to me."
With that, he dove through her -- an instant kill -- leaving me the only soul survivor. I
knew that I was screwed, because the Tails Doll had spotted me now. He lunged for
me, but I managed to block his blow by grabbing my own pocket knife by the blade.
Pain seared through my hand, but I just ignored it and the Tails Doll began licking the
fallen blood.
"Don't move."
A Shadow plush soared through the air and smacked the back of his head, stunning
him long enough for me to shove him off. My older cousin Erik had been aroused from
the noises upstairs (he sleeps in the basement, which is a very nicely refurbished
room, I remark) and grabbed his Shadow plush and 12-gage shotgun. While the Tails
Doll was down, Erik fired three rounds through his bosom. The doll screamed in
"pain", and, having enough bloodshed for the night, disappeared. I haven't seen the
Tails Doll since that night, but I visit this site as much as possible now, learning about
him. Watching. Waiting for him to return.
But the next time I see him, I'll be ready........

Harry sends us this quiver-inducing quickie....
One night after school I came back home. Suddenly, my mum said “Harry! Go up and
turn the heater on”. So, I went upstairs and I saw that my PS2 was on. I thought I must
have left it on before I went to school, but the problem is -- I am not allowed to play on
the PS2 before school.
I decided to play Sonic R, since it was on of the best games I have ever bought and to
my horror I heard a giggling sound from under my bed, and thought I saw two red
eyes. So I went downstairs where my family was (I am scared all by myself )and
watched television. On the screen, it showed a message: "Can you feel the
sunshine" I got really freaked out and my mum sent me up to bed early.
I had to take precautions so I recorded the song “Live and Learn” on my PSP, just to
be safe. Suddenly, I saw the Tails Doll so I put on the song “Live and Learn” on and I
sang to it. Luckily I escaped, but there was a letter under my bed saying “You have
won this time but you will obey me”
I have yet to hear from him again…..

"Joshua" has quite an interesting theory on what will help against the Tails Doll... but
as with other theories, will it really work when the time comes?
I know EXACTLY what the Tails Doll is and how to HELP him see the error of his ways.
I have been studying the Tails Doll for the last week and after reading dozens of
stories on your site - including the one about his origin - I've come to the conclusion
that he is most definitely a Kitsune.
A Kitsune is a Japanese Fox Spirit. They are magical spirits that possess the ability to
create or modify reality, produce fire and lightning at will, and the ability to assume
human form and posses humans. They are intelligent, clever, and mischievous as
well. They are also amoral; they do not exactly know the difference between right and
wrong. They do what they think is right. Also, in order for them to survive, they
require sustenance. Most take it in the form of the element it represents draining the
area it feeds at. Like if a water kitsune is near a body of water and it feeds, the water
level in that area goes down for it is sapping the very essence of the water.
The Tails Doll on the other hand is probably a Void Kitsune. Which means it has the
ability to modify or create space around it. Creating endless voids and filling them with
things it thinks should exist. This kind of Kitsune is not satisfied with elemental energy,
it must feed on human souls which are the greatest source of sustenance available.
And this I'm OK with since he is doing what every animal does...EAT!
Now, I will tell you how to help or protect yourself from him since I think destroying him
is wrong. Since he is a Kitsune, magic or psychic abilities and items work on him. I
suggest using a Black Tourmaline Gem to ward him off since they contain VERY
powerful protection from negative, not evil, energy. Also magic spells should work.
Kitsunes also hate religious figures since they can break their reality by simply
touching anything within it.
Reading through the website, I also noticed some stories about Sonic figures coming
to life and defeating or warding off the Tails Doll. If this is true, then it might be
possible to use a Naruto - and I mean NARUTO - figure to help in the situation. You
see, Naruto is a Kitsune too. But he is full of positive energy. Which means he might
come to life and talk to the Tails Doll, Kitsune to Kitsune, and convince him to stop
being so negative. Plus, if he comes to you, make an offering. Kitsunes typically love
fried tofu and some like pretty items. Or even play a pretty tune that relaxes you and
makes you feel calm.
It's unlikely the Tails Doll will come after me to destroy me for putting this up because
of the fact I'm too a fellow Kitsune. I'm a different kind though. See, I'm the kind of
Kitsune that was born into a human body. It isn't much different from the Spirit Kitsune
I mention up above other than the fact that my powers are MUCH weaker and I don't
have the ability to shape shift which Kitsunes can do also. But at least I don't need to
feed. It's due to the fact that I have a human host to call my own.
The reason I'm posting this is because of Kitsune Law. One of the laws states that you
must help fellow Kitsune... which is what I'm doing. The Tails Doll has become a rogue
Kitsune because he is killing people for no good reason. This isn't the typical
behaviour of a Kitsune. It appears he has become emotionally unstable and I have
become concerned for his safety and the safety of other beings. The law also states
that Kitsune must also help people who willingly ask for help. So I'm sending ways to
protect yourselves and possible ways to help him.

"J.S." sends us a short incident... do you dare replicate it?
My name is not important, but I have been cursed by the Tails Doll for some time now.
Nothing was more exciting than me seeing the red light in my bathroom really
happen... until now!
I was really bored today, it being spring break and all, when I was listening to "City
Escape" from Sonic Adventure 2. I decided I wanted to see if it would sound cool if I
synced it together with a different Sonic song. I chose "Living in the City." I opened up
two YouTube tabs and played them both at the same time.
All of a sudden, I felt a tremendous weight fall on top of me! My head and arms
banged down heavily on my computer desk! With all of my strength, I paused the "City
Escape" tab and deleted the "Living in the City" tab.
I decided that that was creepy enough to get submitted here, but as I was typing your
site name in Google, the YouTube tab I left open of City Escape started playing again
halfway through at the part where it says, "Aw yeah!"
So here I am typing this. I have no idea what happened and probably DON'T want to
know what happened! All I know is that there is some connection between these two
songs. Well, what do you think?
____________________________________________________________________
Joshua's life has changed drastically upon his encounter with the Tails Doll... but was
it real or just a dream?
I have come bringing GREAT news...Hopefully.
I should begin my tale of how I gained my "Power".
My name is Joshua Wubker - well, it used to be. Now I am considered as Ultima. I have
known about the curse for a very long time and I wanted to try it out, so I downloaded
Sonic R off of the internet. It was quite easy and fun... or so I thought.
After I beat Sonic R and tagged Super Sonic with Tails Doll, I went to play Ghost
Recon Advanced Warfighter. On several missions I played, the number 666 kept
flashing all around my screen and I got creeped out, but that went away. About 5-6
weeks later, ON HALLOWEEN, I went to my cousin's house to spend the night. The
day was pretty uneventful, but it got very bad at night VERY FAST!!!
When I went to bed, I had a short dream and woke up. To my horror, it was the Tails
Doll himself. He told me that he would come for me when I least expect it.
That is when I started to get spooked.
November 8th, 11:00
I went to sleep that night, but quickly woke up when I had a dream that Tails Doll
stabbed me in my stomach. My shirt was covered in blood. I looked up and the Tails
Doll was holding my baby brother.
He said with a very large grin: "I said I would come when you least expect it. You're not
the only soul in this house, though."
I was so mad I lunged and bit the Tails Doll's arm and tore a chunk off.
"Agh, you mortal, now you shall pay!" After saying that, he flew into our kitchen and I
sped off to get him. I looked at our table and I hate the fact I have to say this...
He turned my baby brother into a doll.
He didn't look at me as he said, "Foolish mortal, I am a god. There is no way YOU can
defeat me!"
Becoming very angry I yelled, "THERE IS ALWAYS A WAY!" and I ran at him like a
bull. Without any effort, he turned around and sliced my arm.
"You are very amusing, maybe I don't have to kill you after all. Join me or DIE!"
"NEVER!" I lunged at him again and he tried to stab my heart, but I held my arm so
tightly, he was now struggling to get that knife close to my body. He turned around
and started speeding towards my brother.
"NO!!" I lunged at him and grabbed his gem by accident.
"Since you have touched my gem, you are going to die no matter what." As soon as
he finished that sentence, I started to feel pain all throughout my body. I opened my
eyes, and to my surprise, my arm was actually healing. I looked at his gem and it was
turning grey.
"What!? NO!" He started getting weaker and weaker until he finally fell, motionless.
Was he actually dead? He must have been. I cut off the gem and put it in my pocket
as a souvenir...
But wait, I didn't have pockets in the pants I wore when I went to sleep! I rushed to the
bathroom to discover my appearance had drastically changed. Here are some of the
changes below:
Black, spiked hair.
Black overcoat
Red T-Shirt with a black skull
I grew a few inches taller, too.
I was very shocked, but also relieved that he was dead. I went back to my computer
and checked my e-mail... I had a very strange message.
Subject: It is Time.
Sender: Sonic the hedgehog.
I opened it and I got Chaos Controlled to Mobius. There I was told by Sonic and
friends that I killed the Tails Doll, halfway.
They said that I did kill the original Tails Doll, but as long as other dolls existed, Many
would still be unsafe.
My family thinks that I was killed by a hired assassin by a person who had a grudge
against me. As for my brother, he is fine. I now have the power of teleportation, flight,
fire, and psychokinesis. My life is now good. And that is it.
Your Friend,
Ultima

Sunny is a furry -- literally...
Hi. My name is Sunny, and believe it or not -- I'm an animal, like Sonic and the
others. I have had an encounter with the Tails Doll. Before I became a Hedgehog,
however, I was a human.
Back then, I had just heard of the curse. My best friend Lucane told me. When he
said that the cursed game was Sonic R, I was emotionally shattered. I had that game!
I said, "Stop trying to scare me Lucane!" He said, "I'm not lying." Then he started to
laugh all maniacally. Lucane said, "Hey, let's beat the game and find out!"
I thought about it. "We really shouldn't, but let's do it." I went and got Sonic R and we
started doing the tag thing. I was Tails Doll. He was Super Sonic. Finally, I tagged
him. Suddenly, Lucane's phone rang. He picked it up and "Can You Feel The
Sunshine" could be heard on the other end. Then, Lucane said something a little too
inappropriate to say on here. I grabbed the phone from him and destroyed it.
The next day we started to draw (I hope it's okay to get off track a little). I drew two
Sonic-style anthro characters based off of myself, and Lucane. I called mine Sunny
the Hedgehog. Lucane drew his character killing the Tails Doll. Finally, I came out
and said "You know he's going to get us sometime."
Then a voice said "So you think you can do that to me and get away with it."
Something orange hit Lucane in the face and he crumpled against the wall. It was the
Tails Doll. He turned around and said "Now,you can die,or be my slave." I growled,
"What do you think?"
Lucane pounced on the Tails Doll and started stabbing him and saying "Get away
from her you f**kin' a**wipe!" Then,a darker orange thing was floating in the air. It
said "Come on!" I focused and saw it was another Tails Doll (I think it said something
about him on this site)! They evil Doll hurled my friend onto the floor and rushed us.
The good Tails Doll moved in front of us and said, "Well, I can't leave you here!" He
touched us. Then we fainted.
As I was starting to wake up, I heard my name being called. "Riquel? Uh...Sunny?" I
woke up and saw a pair of orange and red eyes. "Lucane?" He said "Uh..maybe you
should..." Then the nice Tails Doll said "Look here!"He held up a mirror. Yellow and
pink fur? Gloves? A tail?! I had become my character, Sunny!!!
Well, that's my story. Currently, me, Lucane, and this Tails Doll are working to fight
evil Tails Doll. Please be careful.

Euphie is yet another soon-to-be-victim that did not heed our warnings...
I won't say my real name so... I'll be called Euphie...
My friend and I wanted to do the Tails Doll curse but we didn't have the guts.
Eventually, I told her that we should try it for once.
"Are you sure, Euphie?" she asked. She thought that we shouldn't do it. "Of course,
Kallen (we like to be called names from Code Geass) nothing will happen. It's just a
dumb thing some fans came up with." This was in December. Around...December 19,
to be exact. She said that we needed to get together sometime, but we never found a
time. I decided to do it myself. That was a bad choice.
I turned on the lights in my bathroom. I closed the door and locked it. I took out my
MP3 player and played "Living in the City"in reverse. I waited for about a minute, but
then quickly turned on the lights because I was frightened. Ever since that day...I've
had the feeling of being watched...when I'm alone in my room. One night, I heard
something outside my window. It sounded like 2 knifes being scraped together. I held
my Shadow and Sonic plushies close to me, while whispering "Sonic the Hedgehog"
over and over again. The sound soon went away. The feeling of being watched is
now an off and on feeling.
If anything else happens, I'll be sure to keep you updated.
____________________________________________________________________
Just because you are a servant of the Doll doesn't mean you can't have a kick-ass
theme, as Kingultra.exe explains...
Here is a story of how I became the Tails Doll's most trusted slave.
It was 1 year since I began serving my invincible master. He said to me, "for your
service, I will make you my right hand servant."
I replied '"Can I get a custom theme when I appear?
My Master stared blankly, "Uhhh...sure."
I said; "Listen to this!"
It was the same as the song, "Airman Cannot Die," except the Airman/Woodman parts
were replaced with "Tails Doll" and the parts about their attacks with "his deathly
stare", and "Crystal of Doom."
Tails Doll mused. "It is perfect. Now, there is a soul I must collect, but he is watching
for me, so I must go into you."
That night, at the home of these people who resist my master, I knocked on the door.
They didn't know my master lurked inside me, so they let me in. That was the last
thing the ever did.
As soon as they were all in one room, "Tails Doll Cannot Die" started playing.
They screamed, "It can't be!"
MY master came out of me, and one by one, we took each of their souls. From that
day forth, people who had heard this song have been turned into dolls and died.
You cannot defeat Tails Doll!You cannot dodge his Blood Red gem!

Could Javier's dream be the key to our salvation?
Hello, My name is Javier, I hope the TD isn't listening in on my conver-
Oh crap! I thought I heard something!
Anyway to the point, The Tails Doll will attack you, even if you don't have Sonic R!
Don't fear it, for I had a dream, which showed our saviors. One of these figures said
"Hello, I am one of the saviors. There is one of us in each continent, which must all be
awakened. When this happens, an aura will appear in the sky, merging our world with
the one you know as Sonics! The event will occur in 2011, and we will see the true
realm of Tails Doll. In the meantime, you must collect all time stones. I can't tell how it
will help, however you must... "
Then, my dream ended. All I know, is we can save the final pure souls, and all of
humanity! Lets hope it can save us!

ShadowedStranger95 sends us an update on her condition...
Hi everyone. This is ShadowedStranger95, again with my latest diary entry to show
you all. I gave up on my PC copy of Sonic R and bought the PS2 gems collection
instead.
13 Feb 2009 4:29pm
I CAN'T BELIEVE IT! MY NEW COPY OF SONIC GEMS COLLECTION HAS FINALLY
COME! I ORDERED IT OFF EBAY AND I'M JUST ABOUT TO PLAY IT! I KNOW
ABOUT THE TAILS DOLL CURSE AND I BELIEVE IN IT, BUT I THINK I SHOULD
PLAY THE GAME TO FIND OUT MORE! First race is on Resort Island as Tails.
5:42pm
I'VE DONE IT! After a few tries on Radical City, I've unlocked Tails Doll! He's a really
good character to play because he can float really fast and glide over water. This is
gonna be good!
14 Feb 2009 2:50pm
I went on MSN and my friend Ichigo came online. I said hi and she suddenly told me
to go on video call. She kept saying it like she was terrified. When I answered the call,
she said that I had asked her if she could "feel the sunshine." I don't remember writing
that! But... wait... it's on my chat history! I'm so confused!
7:48pm
Okay I am officially creeped out. My laptop overheated and switched itself off. Then
about 15 minutes later, I finally get it back on and Ichigo is on MSN again. She said I
was on a video call with her just a few seconds ago singing the lyrics to "Can you feel
the sunshine?" over and over. Somebody call the "Twilight Zone."
22 Feb 2009 10:11am
I haven't had the chance to write anything in a while. I am very, very, VERY scared. My
eyes still keep turning red when I look in the mirror. I've been updating the hunters
site and doing more research on the doll. I'm gonna send this entry to Quacker and
Bowen soon, if I can. You're not gonna believe what's been happening.
A while ago, I made up my own alphabet of code letters so that I can write in my
notebooks without anyone being able to read it. I keep it secret and nobody else
knows how to write it. But one day at school I was reading the graffiti on the desk and
I came across something that looked familiar. Someone, or something, had written
"Tails Doll wants you" in my special code! I'm watching more and more videos about
TD every day. Some of them really scare me. But I know I need to learn everything I
can if I want to put an end to the horror.
10:27
Forgot to say. School is one of the last places I want to be at the moment. Ichigo and
I were in the Pyramid. It's what they call the biggest computer room at our school. We
were going to see if Ichigo could rent a locker. I already had one. She was talking to
the teacher when I looked in the direction of the locker room. I tugged her sleeve.
"Ichigo I need to talk to you outside."
"Can it wait?"
"Not exactly."
She sighed and followed me outside. I was shaking.
"What's wrong?"
"I saw him... he was sitting on top of the lockers... I was in hysterics. "Ichigo, he was
staring at us!"
Ever since that incident, I keep seeing that dreaded doll every day. I know he's
following me. He's following Ichigo too. What the?! HOLY SHIT HE'S IN MY BACK
GARDEN! I've got just enough time to send this before I run! Be safe everyone!
____________________________________________________________________
John R. thought it would be fun to try the curse a few times. You can imagine what
happened next...
So, I'm a big fan of the Sonic series, and I play every game I can find of it.
I first learned of the Tails Doll from my friend Joe. He told me all about what it could do
and what it was. I was creeped out a little by it, but I didn't think it was real. I had my
iPod touch at the time and I pulled up a video of "Living in the City" backwards, and
before I could play it, Joe snatched it from my hands and told me "no." It was this that
lead to me to want to preform the curse.
I kept the curse in my mind and I thought about doing it many times, but I didn't.
My friend from school gave me the Sonic Gems Collection. I was pretty cheerful that
day, but I was nervous about playing the game because of the curse.
Eventually, I did play the game and I did everything I needed to and beat it 100%. I
was one step away from the curse. My lights were off and I prepared for the tag 4
characters thing. I got everyone easily, and before I got Super Sonic, I saw that my
Tails Plush had changed. It now had a red orb coming from it's head. My eyes
widened and I quickly turned the game off. I flipped the lights on and he was back to
looking like normal Tails. I stopped playing the game.
Most recently, my friend Alex came over and we hung out for the day. We were chillin'
at my place for the night and he noticed I had the Sonic Gems collection. He knew
about the curse as well and I knew he wanted to preform it. I had the game saved, so
capturing Super Sonic was all that you needed to do. I let him do it, being my dumb
self.
He played it, taking the longest time to get 3 out of 4. When he almost got Super
Sonic, the TV screen went pitch black and it flickered the game on and off. It had
never happened before and it freaked us both out. He threw the controller in my
direction not wanting to play it anymore. Minutes later we did it again, though this time
he got me to do it.
I got them all pretty well and I got Super Sonic with no problem. I froze, waiting for
something to happen and nothing did. We relaxed ourselves and about 5 minutes
later, the screen flashed off again and it flickered the screen again. I ran out of the
room.
Now, being our stupid selves, we did another part of the curse. We played the song in
a dark bathroom, and just what I thought would happen, happened. A red light started
to glow behind us and that was when I ran out the room again, followed by Alex.
Later that night we kept seeing weird stuff. At 3 am we actually did it again. To this
day, I regret doing that. It's been 2 days since we did it and my luck has been running
out. He's here somewhere... He waiting for his chance and now I feel like everywhere I
go, he's there. I hear the same words every time I go into the bathroom and look into
that mirror. In that low quiet voice I hear...
"can you feel the sunshine"

Teammember send me a letter, asking the simple question:
-------------------------CaN yOu FeEl ThE sUnShInE?------------------------
I woke up this morning, knowing it'd be a GREAT day! So I walked outside, to get the
mail, but I stopped cold once I saw it.
Everything.... was covered in blood. So, I ran back inside, and plopped on the couch.
I turned on the TV, but it was all static. So I went upstairs. My brother was still
sleeping, so I went back downstairs.
Now, the whole room was covered in blood. It was on the walls, Television, and couch.
Where I had been sitting, there was a mannequin, covered in blood. On closer
inspection, It looked like me.
Then I heard a scream. I ran upstairs and discovered my brother has hanging, dead
His neck stuck through a hook on the wall. Then I heard a horrible, never-ending
scream. The walls were collapsing. My ears were bleeding.
I was panicked. I ran down the street to my friend's house. I told her what happened,
but of course, she didn't believe me. Then, we heard another horrible screech, like a
million nails on a blackboard.
Suddenly, it all stopped. We thought it was over. We heard a sound "Shhllluuuumpy!!"
We were terrified.
Then, We saw the Tails Doll.
My friend was so scared, she couldn't even scream. It lunged straight at her, phasing
into her, taking away her will. She was taken over, and couldn't control anything
anymore. All I heard was an evil echoing phrase, over and over, extremely loud,
saying "YOU WILL DIE!!"
My ears started to bleed again, so I ran and ran, but nothing worked. I turned around,
only to see my friends ribs rip out from her body, killing her and releasing the Tails
Doll in a spray of gore. The orb on his head then sucked up all the blood, and he
lunged at me. He caught me, knocking me onto the ground. Then he took over my
body too.
The last thing i ever heard was....
...."Can you feel the sunshine?"

Trent L has an important warning for all of us -- Play with fire, and many people could
get burned...
I... Have been cursed.
The Tails Doll has taken everything.
Allow me to tell you my story. I should have told you sooner...
It was on August 25th, 2008. I had been browsing your site, and been looking
through the Tails Doll stories. As most people, I simply dismissed it as pure fiction.
That was the greatest mistake on my life.
I was bored, so I decided to try to tag 4 characters with the Tails Doll. I did so, and the
screen went to the character selection menu. The Tails Doll was missing. Of course, I
was frightened, and I looked around for any sign of him.
Nothing.
I decided to go play DS and fire up my copy of "Moero Nekketsu Rhythm Damashii
Osu Tatakae Ouendan 2" (Rough translation: "Burn! Hot-Blooded Rhythm Spirit: Hey!
Fight! Cheersquad 2")
As I was playing, I noticed something peculiar on a character known as Honoka Kawaii.
She usually had a small, stuffed, pink bunny with it's tongue sticking out, attached to
her skirt. Instead of said rabbit, was to my surprise --
The Tails Doll.
Surprise, surprise, I freaked out and turned the game off before running to the
computer to tell my friend (Who is also a fan of the game) about this discovery, but I
soon found out that they had been banned from speaking to me, and anybody that
they didn't know online.
A few days later, I found out they had died. A copy of Sonic R was next to them in a
CD case. The CD case was broken, and it had been used to slice their neck.
Instead of destroying me, the Doll seems to want to torture me a little, first. I give you
a warning that you may not be it's only target, should you release the doll! It may
target the ones you care about.

Aura needed our help, and we let him down...
HELP!!!!
I'm trapped by the doll in my room with my pc. How did this happen? Well it all started
when I beat the Tails Doll and unlocked him. I give the curse a try since at first I did
not believe the curse. It was 11:59, but then I had a Sonic plush just in case. After 1
hour passed and I won the game the door bell rang, so I reach for the door knob and
grabbed the Sonic plush. There was the doll. It try to grab me, but the doll stunned It.
I dropped the doll and ran to my room. I was TRAPPED.
So that is all. ifyour what to avoid the curse powers dfrhtgfgtukjhol;.l;.
Hello, mortals.
How do you you die from internet? i just grabbed this mortal and threw him on the
floor. I'll be seeing you soon.

I was searching the piles of old letters in my inbox, when I discovered this missive from
Shade the Wolf. Let's hope he's still OK...
Um, Either my emails are being intercepted by the TD, or you don’t post stories from
escapees of the TD’s fortress…
Anyway, I’ve got an update from the intarwebz.
The Tails Doll is starting to gather all of the world’s souls…starting with the people
who Haven’t even touched Sonic R, and ending with the people who have been
unlucky enough to complete it…
The last encounter I had with the Tails Doll left me…split. As in I now have SPD Split
Personality Disorder
And I also have this power to build anything without instructions…
Well, down to the point: I’ve been playing CaveStory a lot recently, that and being
online… and sometimes my computer crashes… Maybe the Tails Doll is trying to
make me play Sonic R?
I’ve also had a WEIRD thing happen to me: One night, I heard “Can You feel the
Sunshine” In my head CLEAR AS DAY!! I also had the Tails Doll visit me in my dreams
several times… one time, he just stood there… and another, he actually tried to
possess me… causing my SPD.
Well, I hope this message gets to you…
____________________________________________________________________
You can call him Mephiles, as his dreams are about to turn his life into a nightmare...
My name is Christian, but due to the dreams I’ve been having, you can call me
Mephistopheles (Mephiles for short)
My dreams began about a couple days after I got Sonic Riders…
And every dream, the Tails Doll’s Hunters have stolen part of my soul, and dying
shortly after, which is why the Tails Doll is trying to kill me. I have killed a total of seven
of His Hunters so far, and it WOULD’VE be eight, but one of the bastards escaped last
night… And the 5 last night were just there to observe… not the usual Search and
Retrieve… I think the Tails Doll killed Dante, because I haven’t heard from him on the
Mega Blast forums (My username is Shade the Wolf), and it bothers me a bit… Also, I’
ve had increased violent thoughts, which isn’t my normal personality.
Again, You haven’t been posting my stories… Are my emails being intercepted?
I’ve been very cautious lately… I always look over my shoulder, and I also hear His
voice in my head, mocking me, taunting me… I feel like my enemies are trying to get
me… I also feel like I’m a Pure Soul… Which is true, since I’m a half-breed (Half-
demon) Which is why the Tails Doll is acting cautious as well, sending his Hunters,
and not coming after me himself. I can also see aura, and read the Tails Doll’s mind.
Mephiles, signing out.

A dude nicknamed "Tails" has been getting some bad vibes lately, and I think we all
know who is behind it...
OK before I start, you can call me "Tails". Everyone in I know calls me that anyway,
don't know why, though. I won't say my true name for, shall we say, "special"
purposes...
I just thought you should know that I think the Tails Doll is mad at me for not doing the
whole curse. I beat Sonic R 100% but didn't do the bathroom stuff yet. Strange things
keep happening to me. Like when I go to take a shower, I keep feeling like
something/somebody is watching me. Also, when I was laying in my bed I looked out
my window at in the BIG tree next to my house, I swear I saw the red dot in my tree!
Another time, I woke up with a big scratch going down the side of my leg! It was from
the knee to the ankle,almost in like a backwards "J" form.
And one time, I felt really tired so I went for some quick Z's, and when I woke up, I had
the urge to draw something, but when I opened my notebook to do so, there HE/IT
was right on the first page. It was really creepy, to show you I'll be uploading it soon to
show I'm not lying.
WOW.
Just now, I felt a cold chill on my back, but the fan's off. I'm starting to think he/it really
is mad at me. I think I'll do the bathroom thing alone. If anyone's gonna get hurt, I at
least want it to be me and just me.
My name is Jurg. I am “Its” keeper.
Allow me to tell you the story of “It.” It was once a human, or as close an approximation
of humanity as a 13 year old boy can be. It was my brother once. David we used to
call him. No longer.
Two years ago I was 19, a rebellious metal head who drank, smoked and partied.
They were happier times. My brother idolized me. He wanted to be me, he wanted to
drink and smoke and have sex and stay up all night in sleazy nightclubs. He wanted to
listen to my music, read my books and play my video games. Unfortunately for him I
found a copy of Sonic R for the PC for £1 in a bargain bin. I played the game and got
sick of it relatively quickly. Mainly because of the bloody music. I completed a few
races as Knuckles, but gave up before I unlocked Metal Knuckles. My brother, despite
his claims, wasn't blessed with the heavy metal tastes I so enjoyed back then and he
became besotted with the music of Sonic R. Poor boy.
After much pestering, I finally relented and let the poor sap play Sonic R on my Laptop
in his room, mainly because my room had too many interesting things for him to spend
any length of time in there. What with the collection of throwing weapons, the
seemingly endless supply of chains, the bondage gear, the alcohol and stacks of
smokes. Like I said, I was a rebel. So, with a bottle of vodka, a pack of smokes and a
violent Japanese horror film, I was content to let the brat pilfer my computer for a
while. Thanks to the vodka, I fell asleep before most of the killing started in my film but
was woken by that first high pitched scream that lets you know a Japanese schoolgirl
is about to die. It had been an hour since David took my computer and I wondered if
he'd given up yet.
I stood up and immediately regretted it. My liver was displeased at my choice of
beverage and was making no secret of that fact. Off I trundled up the stairs. Thump.
Thump. Thump. Then, I heard it -- a strange sound, a “schluurping” sound. Dismissing
it as an after effect of the Russian firewater, I half fell through my brother's door.
There he was, sat in a lotus position with the laptop on his lap, mesmerized by
flickering images. Despite the recurring image of a toy Tails I knew that he wasn't
playing Sonic R anymore. Naturally, I belted him around the head for dicking about on
my laptop.
He hissed. In one blurred movement the laptop and its flashing pictures were placed
where he was sat and he was busy trying to claw my face off. Naturally being the much
older and stronger brother I put him on his backside and threw in a quick kick to the
ribs to show him who was boss. He vomited blood and I'm not too proud to admit that I
ran. I thought I'd really hurt him.
The reality was far worse.
The torrent of blood coming from his mouth soaked the green carpet, surely nobody
could puke that much, I thought he was going to die in front of me. In a way, he did.
After a few seconds the tide of crimson stopped and he made a gurgling noise, then
the same “schlurping” sound I heard before, then he burped and coughed up what
appeared to be a ball of cotton wool, finally he collapsed. I rushed over to him and
couldn't feel a pulse, his body was still warm but I knew he was gone. Then I was sick.
I looked over at my laptop, which had turned off and realized that somehow, the blood
on the carpet had avoided it entirely. In this swamp of polyester and human blood was
a small, perfectly circular island of green carpet on which my laptop perched. I flicked
the lid shut and sparked up a cigarette whilst I tried to figure out what to do. If I called
the police, I'd be in prison by dinner time. If I hid the body, my mother would get
suspicious and again I'd be in prison. I decided to disappear. I ran down to my room
and packed a case with bare essentials and a whole lot of cigarettes and alcohol. I
turned to leave my room and there he was.
No I'm wrong, there “It” was.
My brother, or what was left of him, was suspended by two strings which appeared to
be attached to nothing but nonetheless stood straight above him three feet into the
air. His eyes had glazed over and gone black and in the middle of his forehead was a
glowing red crystal of some sort. The aberration floated towards me and something
inside me snapped. Unholy rage that my brother be taken from me and his corpse
defiled. I attacked the corpse with the sort of vigor I have yet to find a chemical
capable of replicating. I hit it and hit it, but it didn't stop staring at me with those black
dead eyes. The crystal glowed brighter and I heard it “schlurp” again before it started
trying to bite me. My rage only intensified. I beat it to the ground and bound it with
chains, first the ones I had clipped to my belt and later I bound it to the walls in my
room. No matter what I did the thing didn't stop fighting or struggling.
Now I had my brother's seemingly possessed corpse bound to my bedroom wall, his
room coated with blood and no way of explaining what the hell had just gone on, so I
decided to carry on drinking and hope to wake up not in prison. My prayers were
answered; my mother woke me up asking where David was, in my drunken and half-
conscious stupor, I muttered he was in my room. A few seconds later I woke up and
realized what I had said. I got up and stumbled to my room but I was too late. The
thing had destroyed my mother, it had devoured her and all that was left was a small
plushie which looked like her. I noticed that “It” had stopped struggling and seemed
almost docile. I knew then what I had to do.
Since that day, I have attempted to destroy the creature many times. I removed its
limbs, I burned it, I fed it through a wood chipper but I haven't yet been able to end its
miserable existence. All that happens is it reassembles, gets hungry and goes on a
rampage. Three times I captured the beast and chained it back in my old room.
Destroying the creature seems to be impossible, I tried to starve it but in its fervent
attempts to feed on me it almost broke free so now my task is to bring it victims.
Every fortnight, I visit a particularly seedy nightclub. Every fortnight I pick a fairly
attractive young lady who is by herself. Every week I woo the poor creature and lead
her to my home and her demise. I have my way with the sacrifices before letting “It”
get them. I don't see why “It” should have all the fun. I collect the remains and keep
them as a reminder of my horrific deeds.
To this day I'm still not sure exactly what happened to my brother, all I know is “It” is
hungry and I must keep it fed.

Blackout gives us this chilling tale of “The Last Race”…
I have sat back for too long listening to the lies. These elaborate, but poorly written,
fabrications cannot continue on while he still exists. These lies only contribute to the
mystery surrounding him and thus make it even more difficult to fight him. We must
stop writing for the supposed fun of it. I have only one tale offer, but I hope the
warning contained within can help someone avoid a similar fate.
I purchased Sonic R for my Saturn several months ago over Ebay for the paltry sum of
one dollar. A video game for such a small amount is a great score by anyone’s
standards, but there was a much higher price to be paid. More than money was to be
lost in the name of that unholy game.
I am currently enrolled in college and was blessed with a roommate who shares my
love for gaming. We would always play together between study sessions and over
time our skill greatly improved. Since we were both fans of the Sonic universe we
were both excited when I obtained Sonic R. We wasted no time and even skipped a
class to play it. Beating the game took no time at all and was completed 100% in a
matter of hours. I loved to play as Super Sonic and my friend as the Tails Doll. I
loved the speed and golden color and he seemed fascinated with the swaying doll.
Thanks to Sonic’s speed and my skill, I always managed to win the races in the end.
He eventually got frustrated and decided to quit. Tired of playing as well, we both
called it quits and went on with the day.
That night, my dreams were haunted by an eerie red glow. I was always accosted by
the glow wherever I went, even at full run. I never saw more than that, but the feeling
of fear was beyond description. I awoke in a cold sweat and couldn’t fall back asleep.
The nightmare continued off and on for days and started to take a toll on my daily life.
Tasks became more difficult and my school work suffered. I may have failed several
exams but I didn’t fail to notice my roommate. His actions started deviating from his
usual habits. He started staying up late, talking to himself, and acting angry all the
time. Every time I tried to talk to him he just got angry and yelled at me. I eventually
thought it might be the result of my beating him at Sonic R, since that was the last
game we’d played. He had never acted like this at a loss, which explains why I didn’t
expect this reason for his actions.
Late one night I asked him about the game, if his actions were the result of his loss as
the Tails Doll to me. He stared at me in silence, but I could see the hatred burning in
his eyes. After what seemed like an eternity he walked away, but before he left the
room he turned and said, “Someday I’ll catch you. You can’t run forever.” I started to
respond but he had already left the room and the dorm altogether.
The next day came and went but he hadn’t returned to his room. He didn’t show up to
class and no one seemed to know where he had run off to. After the second day I
called his phone, but after the ringing subsided and the message system picked up all
I could hear was “Can you feel the Sunshine” playing softly behind the static.
He never came back to his room or the campus. Police eventually came to investigate
the disappearance, but were unable to draw any conclusions. I told my side of the
story, but it didn’t seem to influence the investigation. I was a suspect for the longest
time, but no proof of my involvement was ever found and eventually the case went
cold. It was assumed he had been kidnapped or something to that effect and was
probably dead.
I, however, was never the same. Almost every night I see that eerie glow chasing me
in my dreams. It never catches me, but lately it’s been getting closer. I don’t know
how much longer I can outrun it, but I know it won’t be forever. I don’t know what will
happen when it finally catches me, but I fear I will not be around to warn others once it
does. I am pleading with every one of you to not purchase this game. To those who
do not believe in this curse head my words. Whether you believe this story is true is
irrelevant. The factual actuality of this story just doesn’t matter. The question you
have to ask yourself is this, “Can you afford to be wrong?”

1337 w00tn3ss is back to share the darker side of his tale. Remember, even in
darkness there is light…
Hello people it is 1337 w00tn3ss again....I guess life has been pretty good since my
story submission about the Tails Doll, but I gotta admit it's hard to keep my cool now....
For I have to confess a decision I have made concerning the Tails Doll. Many
believers will shake their head in disbelief....
You see there's something I haven't mentioned to anyone, not even K, about this
whole thing. I think it's for the better, but I digress. The night B tattled on me....I felt so
much hatred......Hatred that made me do something potentially dangerous....
You might say I would've snapped and I was bordering that very possibility. I was in my
room with the door closed, my mom forcing me to shut off my computer, leaving me to
sleep in the dark. Before all this, I wasn't scared of the dark, but I see his red gem at
night and it's something that would drive you insane.
I still had my light on after she left, and all of a sudden, I started crying. Crying
because, if only one person believed in me, what would happen if she left? I don't
know what came over me -- I suddenly started asking the Tails Doll to make me
stronger, to make everything better.....to be a part of me....
That's when things seem to get better, and the Tails Doll, or some part of me made
me realize who's important to me in life…
I no longer am friends with B and my life just flipped for the better, you could say. Not
completely better, but still, I was happier. Ever since that night, I know he's part of me,
but, I can't tell anyone else of this. It's one thing if they don't believe you and just
brush it off, but the wrong person could believe it and do something as drastic as an
exorcism! More than likely not that drastic, but there are people like that in this world!
Then my friend J had weird dreams about the Tails Doll and me. The doll’s shadow
kind of surrounded me, and things like that. He now believes in my ordeal, because he
believes the Tails Doll is a demon -- that is part of me. This makes me a partial
demon, so to speak. His words are similar to those on this website -- to never give up
hope. But sometimes, hope is very scarce.
One day, I went nearly insane after my mother almost basically disowned me, calling
me a "financial burden" because of my Juvenile Onset Diabetes (Type 1 for short) and
I went into my room. I scratched my arms so badly I had a huge gash in one of them
(because I don't believe in using blades or anything like that when I do happen to go
insane. In fact, it's now a habit -- when I'm stressed or enraged, I claw at my arms. I
still have scars for March and it's almost June.
If anything, the Tails Doll wants me to separate from my mother. I don't know why, but
one of my theories is the fact that she has magic on her side of the family. Magic that
could be harmful to him (or rather, us.) So as you can imagine, I'm somewhat
distancing myself from her, and The Tails Doll is very sensible in doing so. Yet
sometimes, I go too far with it. She has forgotten all about the curse she brushed
aside, and simply yells at me for getting an attitude with her every so often. I refuse
to bring up the Curse again, for his sake, and mine....
But it's almost like a trade. I keep quiet around those close to me, like J and K (no
pun intended with the initials) and others, and he...helps me in my dreams. Just last
night, I had a dream where I saw many demons everywhere, and the whole time I
heard whispers "They listen to you now" and everyone I knew in that dream said the
demons listened to me. Lately all the dreams I've had turned out to happen, but I still
doubt that possibility...
Then again, I guess that's what got me into this whole mess to start with, right? I'll
keep you informed as time passes on. Do Not give up hope, for my outcome is
miraculous as far as staying somewhat sane compared to the many others who have
no one who will listen to their stories and potentially save their lives. Just remember
that no matter what he tries to do, try to hold on to your humanity, for all the Minions in
his Army cannot give him the Souls He Truly wants. I was lucky, for I am still human,
but he resides in my body as well, just waiting for me to snap.
To all those who say they cannot Feel the Sunshine, do you know what that means?
It's actually a trick. When you are Cursed or sick, you get plenty of sunshine to help
you get better. To those who say they Cannot feel the Sunshine, you are only
tempting other-worldly beings into possessing, or killing you. Watch what you say,
you never know who's listening....
Don't Wound what you can't Kill
For He's Listening.....
Can you feel the Sunshine?
It's your only way Out.....

Did HSC experience an encounter with the Tails Doll, or was it the results of paranoia?
You decide...
Hi you can call me HSC. I am a member of the TDRL, mentioned in a story KRDSONIC
wrote a while ago. Anyways, I may have had a possible encounter with the Tails Doll
last Halloween.
I woke up and realized it was still dark. I looked at my clock beside my bed: 3:15 AM. I
remembered that it was Halloween, being my first Halloween actually properly knowing
about the Tails Doll, I was paranoid. I ignored the feeling, and tried to get to sleep.
About half an hour later, I was still not asleep. All of a sudden, Can You Feel the
Sunshine was stuck in my head. Whenever I get songs stuck in my head, I usually only
hear the words that I actually know (which should've just been half of the 1st verse
and the chorus), but this time, it was even words I didn't know! It was as if I was just
normally listening to the music.
After about 10 minutes, with the song never-ending (after it got to the last chorus, it
just went back to the 1st verse), all of a sudden, an image of the Tails Doll popped
into my head. It seemed familiar, then I realized what it was from. It was like a
screenshot of the Easter egg in Sonic Shorts Volume 2... The first thing I saw was the
Tails Doll.
I opened my eyes, and for some reason wanted to scream, but I couldn't. As I opened
my eyes, I actually expected him to be floating over my bed, but he wasn't. I tried to
turn my head to see if he was anywhere in my room. I couldn’t move... As if something
was stopping me from moving. I struggled to turn my head, I eventually got to an angle
that I could see my whole room (my bed is in the corner). I could see nothing out of
the ordinary.
I was still very freaked out about the fact I could barely move. I still had “Can You Feel
the Sunshine” stuck in my head. I tried something different. I started thinking of the
Sonic Heroes theme song, as it is the Sonic song I know the best; I know almost all the
words off by heart. I tried to force “Can You Feel the Sunshine” out of my head. I
started singing, very quietly but still singing. I got control of my body, and went under
my blankets, too scared to do anything else. I was still singing.
That's all I remember, if I had just fallen asleep or something else happened, I don't
know.
I'd say it was just mind games more then an actual encounter, but thought I would
share it anyway.
____________________________________________________________________
Jordan had a dream about the Tails Doll... or course, that never turns out well...
I played Sonic R.
I think it was a good choice.
I beat it 100%. It was fun, I liked it.
I met the doll.
At first I didn't know about him. I hadn't heard of the curse until after I'd already beaten
the game, Super Sonic and all. (In fact, I unlocked Super Sonic before I unlocked
everyone else.)
I was playing Sonic 2006, long... LONG after Sonic R was done with. So obviously, I
thought the curse was false. I didn't play for very long. Because when I met Tails, he
asked me "Can you feel the sunshine?" and I panicked, remembering the Doll. I shut
down the game and unplugged everything in my room, making sure there was no way
he could get me.
Nothing happened for the rest of the day. I was safe. I went to bed at the end of the
day, relieved that the curse was false.
In my dream, I found myself in a completely dark room. I walked forwards, the ground
underneath me was tiled, like the floor of a kitchen or bathroom or something. I
continued walking in a straight line. A large "Clack" sound came out of nowhere,
followed by a second, and a beam of light fell from nowhere, onto a single spot on the
tiled ground.
Revealing the Doll.
More lights turned on on either side of me and behind me, revealing that I was
surrounded by children. Their faces and skin were gray, great bags hung under their
eyes and their hair was white and falling out. They leaned forwards with their eyes
closed, as if they were completely exhausted. I walked towards the Doll, left with no
other choice. As I did, I noticed the children were muttering something. As I moved
forwards, the children began to stand up straight and the muttering got louder, I could
make out that they were saying something over and over, but what I could only guess.
I also noticed that I was getting smaller. Color returned to the children's skin and hair
as I continued onward, I could now barely hear what they were saying-
"Can you feel the sunshine?"
I continued onward, the children opened up their eyes and began smiling, their
muttering and whispering turning into talking, then full on singing. I continued to shrink
as I walked along the path, until I was nearly as tall as they were. Lights appeared all
over, revealing that I was standing in a great field.
His world. His perfect paradise.
The children continued singing as I got closer, until we were all healthy children,
singing the song to ourselves. I reached out and embraced the Doll in a hug. I let go
of him and turned around. I was back to my normal self... The children were not. They
were skeletons. Lying on the ground, their skulls twisted into surreal smiles. The
meadow that surrounded the tiled path was gone, leaving only cracked dry ground. All
of the lights but the one I was under suddenly turned off, leaving me and the doll in
complete darkness. He looked up at me with his empty eyes, I stared back.
I smiled.
I laughed.
And then I sang.
Can you see?
The sun is shining on me.
It makes me feel so free. So alive.
It makes me want to survive.
And the sky.
It makes me feel so high.
The bad times pass me by.
'Cause today is gonna be a brighter day!...
Can you feel the sunshine?
Does it brighten up your day?
Don't you feel that sometimes, you just need to run away?
Reach out for the sunshine.
Forget about the rain.
Just think about the good times, and they will come back again...
Without you.
There's nothing for me to do.
Can you feel the sunshine too? It's gonna proove.
It makes me feel brand new.
When you're here,
I wish you were always near.
'Cause everything's so clear.
And today is gonna be a brighter day!
Tails Doll Forever.

Backdrop1 of TDRL is having dreams... or are they premonitions?
I had heard of the curse since ‘08 and it fascinated me. But usually when I did the
bathroom curse I usually fail (as in turn off the music). But after the 6th try, I started to
have weird dreams of the Tails Doll. Since I have a lot of them, I should point out four
of my worst dreams.
Dream 1: This was a weird one… it was me in a lab with a doctor telling me that I had
a disease with no cure so they turned me into a animal and put me in this dome-like
environment. There was a lot of animals from birds to bears (which they turned me
into). And now that I think about it, it was just like the Sonic comics. A couple minutes
later, I saw that a couple of animals were trying to escape from this forest dome. I
helped them, but then in a blink of an eye, I was transported to a place where six
animals were crying and then I saw the Tails Doll’s red light. After everything turned
red, I woke up
Dream 2: This was the scariest of all of them. It was me being a ghost hunter. Now you
know that thing which track ghost with magnetic waves? Well, it was off the charts and
I just ran to my house. I tried to look for my family, but they weren’t there. And when I
was going to my room I saw something at the window it was like a faint red light. When
it was gone, I ran to my room until I looked away and saw the Tails Doll. Then I woke
up. Now the funny thing about this was that I was sooo scared that when I woke up, I
was about to jump out of my window.
Dream 3: This one was a weird one. It was about me going to a haunted house for a
Halloween party, and at the end of my dream this guy on the roof told me about the
curse. He told me a story that I was about a purest soul. One person was freaked out
and I stopped him. Then, I woke up.
Dream #4: One of the latest dreams that I had. It was me in this blank city with a
motorcycle passing by me (I don't know who was driving, but I bet it was a Sonic
character). After that, I felt a … “phasing.” I knew that it was me going out of the
dream and waking up, so I forced myself to dream and phased me in and out in and
out. It was so bad that my eyes were fully open, but I closed my eyes and still forced
myself to dream. So the dream resumed and then it got fuzzy. After the fuzz was gone,
I saw the Tails Doll in a chalk and blackboard setting. I saw him eat me up and then I
woke up. When I woke up, I noticed that I had been asleep for only 2 minutes.
Well, those are my dreams for now, I may post up more Tails Doll dreams if I have the
chance and I hope no one is killed because of what I wrote.

Ryu claims that breaking a bone may lead to something more than a new cast...
To begin my tale, I must start a few weeks ago. It was a normal afternoon for me, while
I was out skateboarding. As you may have guessed, eventually I crashed and broke
my right leg.
I went to the hospital and was told that I would need to get a cast. The first thing I
asked was if I could get surgery to speed up the healing process. The doctors said
that it wouldn't help whether I did or did not get surgery. After that, I simply went home
and fell asleep.
While I was asleep, something didn't feel right. I could tell that something was trying to
feel my leg. I tried to wake up and find out what it was, but I was unable to. Then, there
was a strange and eerie voice echoing in my head.
“Relax and I will help you.”
I asked it, “Why should I trust you to help me?”
“You will soon learn what I will do.” Seeing as I was powerless to do anything, I agreed.
Three weeks later, I went in to get x-rays for my leg. The doctors were shocked to see
how my leg was doing. The x-rays showed my leg was healing at an abnormally fast
pace. I didn't even have to ask, I knew who was doing it by now.
The night that I went to the doctor's office, I heard the voice again, but this time I was
awake. It had asked if I knew what it was trying to do. I knew that it was healing my leg,
but I didn't know what for. I simply replied with a, “No,” and fell back on my bed.
“I want you to be a powerful ally to me.”
I knew why he had said that, so I told it, "Well, what if I refuse to be working for you?”
It replied in an angry tone, “Then I will kill you and take your power for myself!”
Confused, I asked, “Why don't you simply kill me and take my power?”
It simply said, “While you possess your power, it is amplifies tenfold.”
Knowing that I might be able to save a few captured souls and learn something from it,
I told it that I would help him. After that, it said, “I will monitor you and keep your leg
healing at the speed it is now.”
I have to go get another x-ray in a few days, so once I learn if it's healed or not, and if
anything new comes up with the Tails Doll, I will write back ASAP. Oh, before I forget, I
do believe in the Tails Doll and have performed both curses. For everyone being held
wherever the Tails Doll hides, just be patient and hang in there.
____________________________________________________________________
Finally, Sal T. Dillo has written back... but will we be pleased by his new experiences?
This is a great moment for me. My master, the omnipotent Tails Doll, is taking me to
his den. Up until this time, he has communicated with me through either the Sonic R
game or the Tails Doll plush that I have in my room even now. He talks to me, but not
out loud. Mentally. In the past couple of days, I have been performing missions at my
master’s bidding, and now, he actually trusts me enough to take me to his lair.
One night, he simply appeared to me after I had caught him a particularly large group
of souls. But that’s another story. He actually appeared to me in person. Not as my
plushie, nor in the game, but for real. It was the second time I had seen him in person,
the first being when I preformed the curse for the first time. This encounter was no
less creepy. He just stared at me for a moment with those large, blank eyes. Then he
spoke.
“You have done well, my servant.” Knowing the consequences of dishonoring Tails
Doll, I bowed low.
“Thank you, master.” I replied.
“I believe it is time that I showed you your new home,” he said ominously.
New home? I didn’t know what he was talking about, but I didn’t question him. That was
another mistake that enticed painful results. Instead, I simply said, “Yes, master.”
The bright jewel that adorned my master’s head glowed brightly for a brief instant and
the next thing I knew, as all of your stories have claimed, I was in my room. But it was
not my room. No, there was something wrong. This was a mere copy of my room. Do
you know how it is when you draw something really good, but when you try to recreate
it, you just can’t get the same effect? Well, that’s how this was. But I was fine with it.
“Where are we?” I asked stupidly.
“Why, in your room of course,” came the reply. “This is where you will be stationed
until further notice. If there is anything you need… do not hesitate to ask.” And with
that, my master was gone.
His final words had left me wondering. Would I really get anything I wanted just by
asking? This deal was getting better and better. I decided to try it out. Since I had
missed dinner that night, I chose to wish up a pizza. Large, stuffed crust, drowned in
meat. That’s how I like it. To my surprise, it coalesced from thin air, falling into my
outstretched arms. Now excited, I opened the box and bit into a particularly meaty
piece.
No lie, it was the most delicious piece of pizza I had ever had.
I quickly proceeded to eat the entire pizza, savoring every mouth-watering bit. When I
was done with the pizza, however, I did not feel full in the least. But I did feel satisfied.
It seemed as if I could keep eating pizza forever without getting full, or go for millennia
without eating and still not be hungry. Awesome. I figured I probably hadn’t gotten any
heavier, either. Oh, the wonders of the Tails Doll.
After my dinner, I decided to take a look around. I left my room, stepping out into a
cheery, well-lit hallway. There were many other rooms and I even passed a few people
who I recognize to have put stories on this site. Fools as they were, most of them
seemed miserable and unfulfilled. However, I passed several who seemed more than
happy to be here. These I conversed with cheerfully. We talked about different things,
but with one person in particular, we talked about why everyone here seemed so
down. I mean, we got whatever we asked for, our quarters were comfortable… what’s
not to like?
Then his expression turned dark and grim, his confident half-smile gone in an instant.
He told me that they were upset to have lost their souls. However, that wasn’t all.
Apparently, those who served the Tails Doll grudgingly did not boast the luxuries that I
had. Those who served unwillingly were stowed away in cramped, unkempt rooms
completely stripped of any furniture. They got nothing when they asked and when
they walked the halls, rather than the pleasant view I saw, they perceived only
darkness. And that was the way it would be until they submitted to the will of the Tails
Doll.
Suddenly, the good-nature returned to his face and we laughed together at the fools’
plight. Who was actually stupid enough to resist the Tails Doll when yielding to him
instantly guaranteed better living conditions? After that, we parted ways. I returned to
my room and went to sleep.
The next morning, I awoke to the sound of my alarm clock. It was playing “Can You
Feel the Sunshine?” I lay in my bed for a minute or two, just listening to it, before
getting up. I donned my favorite clothes, which - thanks to the power of the Tails Doll -
I now have multiple copies of. I silently exited my chamber and quickly made my way
toward my master. I found him in his room, which was actually more of a suite, with his
back facing the door. However, he somehow knew of my approach.
“Kneel.” His voice was quiet but powerful. I did as he told. The Tails Doll turned to face
me, his expression impossible to read. “It is time for your first real mission,” he said.
“Real mission?” I inquired.
“Why, yes,” he said. “So far, you have brought before me only meager amounts of
souls at a time. From this day forward, you have no job, no duty, no commitment but to
me.” When I remained silent, he continued. “From now on, you will be given a daily
quota of souls to fill. I care not how you come by them. I will now grant you your first
powers. As you become higher in rank, you will earn more, but for now, you will be
allotted only what is necessary.”
I felt a tingling sensation cover my entire body. It felt good. So good, in fact, that when
it suddenly ceased, I fell to my knees, gasping. The Tails Doll continued. “You now
have the ability to sense the presence of souls and to take them. You have also been
given the power to teleport from this realm to the realm of the living at will. Bear in
mind that when you teleport, you can only arrive at certain points. Whenever you
teleport to the realm of the living, you will find yourself in your original room. When you
teleport back here, you will arrive at the reception area. Now, go.”
I stared at him for a moment, not quite comprehending what was happening. Teleport?
Could I really teleport? If so, how? My question was soon answered.
“What is the matter?” he asked.
“I don’t know how to teleport,” I replied timidly, and then closed my eyes, expecting a
blow. The Tails Doll merely sighed with irritation.
“It is easy,” he said as if it were the simplest thing in the world. “All you must do is
think. For once. Imagine yourself in the mortal world.”
“Thank you, master,” I replied, truly more grateful that he hadn’t hurt me than that he’
d taught me how to teleport. I scrambled out of the room and closed my eyes tightly,
trying to envision myself in my old room, playing my Gamecube.
When I opened my eyes, I was there. I was amazed to say the least, but I had no time
to dawdle. I had been given a thirty soul quota for the day and I didn’t intend to waste
any time. The quest was simple. I had to merely hunt down people, reach into their
bodies, and confiscate their souls. I was then to bring them to him. However, he
preferred virgin souls to tainted ones, since feeding on evil did little to satisfy his
appetite, considering how much darkness was already in him. I had resolved to bring
him only the most unadulterated souls I could find. However, this was hard. The world
was already so filled with evil that it was long before I could find even one pure
enough to serve my purpose.
A girl. A young girl of six years. I almost felt regretful of what I had to do, but it could
not be helped. This girl, though young, was a relatively passionate fan of Sonic the
Hedgehog. Go figure. When I found her, she was in her room on the second floor of
the building. Of course, no one in their right minds would leave a six year old at home
alone, so I deducted that someone was there. As such, I could not use the front door. I’
d have to try for the window. Fortunately, there was a hearty tree in the yard adjacent
to the window. Getting in would be the simple matter of climbing the tree, venturing out
onto a branch, and getting into the window from there. Fortunately the window was
unlocked.
As I hopped inside, the sight that greeted me would have melted my heart… had it not
already been frozen solid. You see, it wasn’t until this point that I knew my objective
would be an innocent six year old girl. She was playing one of her many Sonic games.
That’s when it struck me. Maybe, being so pure of heart, she would be of more use to
my master as a servant than a sacrifice.
Fortunately, the girl did not look toward me. Had she done so, the scheme I was
forming even as I watched her might have been ruined. I quickly exited the way I came,
climbing back down the tree. I only had one shot at this. If that had failed, I would have
had to kill the girl, something even I didn’t have the heart to do. In fact, I didn’t have
any heart at all.
I mentally contacted the Tails Doll, requesting the temporary ability to impose subtle
influences on people. He approved, granting me this capability for a limited time
period. I quickly used this power to slowly assert my will on the child’s parents.
Whatever they were thinking before, they now had the sudden urge to spend the night
in a motel room. I was counting on the fact that they’d want a babysitter…
I wasn’t disappointed. Moments later, a lean man walked out of the front door. I played
it cool, as if I had no interest in the house whatsoever. As expected, he walked over to
me.
“Young man,” he started. “I am planning on being out for the night, and I need
someone to watch over my six year old darling while I’m gone. Are you aware of any
babysitters whose service you might recommend?”
“Why, yes I am, sir,” I replied. “In fact, I do a little bit of babysitting myself.”
Needless to say, the man was skeptical. It was obvious that he wanted very badly to
go out that night, compliments of yours truly, but it was also apparent that he didn’t
quite trust me. I exerted a little more influence and any doubts he had as to the
legitimacy of my business, which was completely illegitimate, were annihilated. I could
hardly believe it had worked. Was this telepathic ability so potent as to cause a man to
leave his daughter alone with a complete stranger? The fool. He asked me about the
pay. I told him that it was free since I wasn’t too experienced, which seemed to delight
him. With a quick handshake, he thanked me and disappeared back into his home. I
wiped my hand on my pants. Unbelieving scum. I can hardly believe I used to be on
their level.
Soon after, both of the girl’s parents came out. After a few parting words and the
usual exchange of information, they bade me take care of their precious angel and
left. As I entered the house, I saw that the girl was waiting for me at the bottom of the
staircase to the right. We stared at each other for a moment dumbly.
Then she said in a voice so sweet as to be that of an angel, “Mommy and daddy said
you’re here to play with me.”
I smiled endearingly, although I’m sure it looked more like a scowl. “Yes…” I replied, “I’
m here to play with you.”
The girl smiled and started up the stairs, bidding me to follow. I did. This would be
easier than I thought.
She showed me up to her room and introduced me to her teal Gamecube, which she
had apparently named “Cubey”. She had every Sonic game for the Gamecube you
could imagine, save Shadow the Hedgehog. Of course, this included Sonic Gems
Collection, which I immediately suggested. She popped it in and the opening screen
came up. When it came time to choose the game, I advised Sonic R. However, she
insisted that we shouldn’t play that one due to the curse. So, she knew about that.
This girl was surprisingly intelligent for her age. Perhaps there was something special
about her…
In any case, I exerted the slightest reserve of influential energy on her to… convince
her to choose it. However, she still persisted in defying my counsel, persevering to
warn me about the curse. In the end, I had to use a rather large quantity of persuasive
energy before she would agree. Strange for a young one to be so resilient.
When we first began to play, I noticed that she had already, to an extent, completed
much of the game. However, she had stopped before unlocking the Tails Doll. So I got
her to unlock him. It wasn’t long before we had completed the game 100%. Then, I
suggested that we do tag mode as the Tails Doll and tag Super Sonic.
It goes without saying, this completely freaked her out. She fervently declined,
momentarily free of my influence. I implemented my new power once more to make her
do it. By the time she had calmed down, I was completely exhausted. She did it. She
tagged Super Sonic. As the Tails Doll. I gathered what little energy remained in me
and prepared to calm her down once more when my master appeared, but it was for
naught. The girl remained completely inert as he drifted through the screen and into
the room. He stared down at the girl for a long moment, who stared back at him in
return. I knew what he was doing. He was examining her soul. Precariously. It was as if
the Tails Doll actually feared this little girl. He let out a peel of laughter, breaking the
silence. Surprisingly, the girl laughed back.
My master turned to me. “Good work, my faithful servant,” he said. “This may well be
one of the seven souls of prophecy.”
Completely confounded, I merely gazed back dumbly. He laughed again. “To put it
simply, it is said that to harness the true power of the Chaos Emeralds, one must
acquire the souls of the seven heralds, one for each of the Emeralds. These souls are
the key to unlocking the mysteries of these gems. The seven souls are said to be
recognizable by their purity and this girl’s soul is one of the most wholesome I have
ever seen.”
At hearing this, I knew I had done my master a great service. Hopefully one worthy of
reward. I wasn’t disappointed. My master appointed me to the duty of taskmaster,
rewarding the loyal servants who met their daily quota of souls and punishing those
who did not. I was one of many taskmasters, but at least this is a step up. By now my
master has acquired several of the seven souls, so I have a warning.
Beware, all ye unfaithful.
The end is coming.

Solomon E. returns with a new mission he cannot possibly fulfill for the Tails Doll...
It's been a long time since I've emailed you last. The whole Chaos Emerald thing was
the last time I was able to get anything out there. I'm on Earth right now, in a library
somewhere in Tennessee. I was sent on a mission to get a soul from a woman... a
very important woman. Why lie? I know where I am, I'm home.
In the library where I used to study, I'm looking out the window at people I know.
Nothing's changed here in the years I've been gone. I think it's been years. There
were no calendars where I was. No way to tell how long I had been there. I can't get
the soul I’m supposed to; there's no way in hell I could harm my own mother.
My mother's soul. He wants it, not because of its purity; he wants it because it is, as he
put it, "full." I don't understand it. I'm not expected to. But I hate him. I'm going to try to
escape and see what I can do about it. I think it's unlikely that I'll be successful. And
even if I escape, I don't think my story's over.
Now that we have the present out of the way, I'd like to tell you all about my stay with
the Tails Doll.
I found out where I was. Mu. I was in the place people go after Death. It has no real
name. It is only referred as Mu, as a sick and sarcastic joke from the Tails Doll saying
that people think they know everything. I can't understand the joke. That's his own
description of the name. It hasn’t been horrible. I've only been made to punish millions
of souls a day. I hate the torture, but at least I'm not being tortured myself. I don't
enjoy what I do, I just enjoy not being the one it's being done to. Of course, that will
probably change once I attempt to escape.
I've moved up through His ranks. I'm his Left Arm, as he puts it, as all ranks are given
a name of part of His body. He, being the highest, is the Jewel, and those I am to
torture, are called Soles, another cruel pun. For one so evil and maniacal, he has an
interesting sense of humor.
When I say maniacal, I don't mean he's insane. He's anything but that. He's too
meticulous, too careful, to be considered insane. He's just pure evil. I have no idea if
he enjoys what he does or not. I only know he kills, he has no choice, and he tortures,
but not directly. On another note, he gives his highest ranks beauty, or what he calls
beauty. I have a red rhinestone protruding from my hair, almost the size of my head,
and unremovable red and white shoes. no he's got the cursor goodbye

Demon in the Closet gives us the heads up on his situation, and to share of the the
Doll's -- poetry?!
It's me, the Demon in the Closet.
Call me crazy, but I think the cursed one was mad at my last entry.
I can feel his presence.
He wants me to tell you...
This piece is called: It's my life
Why? Why did you lock me up?
Why should I be the one to suffer?
I'm not the first to be outsmarted by him
And I guarantee I won't be the last.
He's done it to you hasn't he?
Yet I'm forever punished
For one mistake.
You created me, so isn't
This another of your errors?
And now I change my primary function.
I'm getting out of here.
My new purpose: Kill.
I've escaped before you know,
Well my soul has, anyway.
It's not great, but I can achieve
My purpose, with satisfaction.
They are happy with their progress,
My victims, they are happy when
They see me. They regret it later.
However, it is a hollow satisfaction,
I realise the only life I really want to
Destroy is yours,
And so, Dr Ivo Robotnik, I'll take your life
So I can have mine.

Aly write us with a short, but scary tale...
It was another ordinary day when I went to help my mom clean out the garage.
So I left my dogs Sophie and Bear inside the house. I went and cleaned for three
hours. When I can back to the house, no dog came.
I called there names "Sophie" "Bear"
Nothing.
Then I walked into the hall way and I saw them lying down dead. One died from
bleeding to death and I'm not sure how the other one died. I looked at the wall. It was
covered with blood. There, written in pure blood were some words that looked like:
Can you feel the sunshine? Can you? T.D.

Wrath the Wolf checks in to alert us to his newest nightmare, and linger fears...
Hello. Me again. Call me Wrath the Wolf. I will not show any other information on
myself, because it seems I'm being targeted. When I played Sonic Riders Zero Gravity
(the first Riders was terrible) and I felt a chill down my spine. When a day past after
playing ZG, I had a dream - a nightmare to be exact. Here's what happened:
My family and some other people were on a vechicle, in space, but it looks like the
ARK! I saw Sonic, and I asked him what happened, and how many people are here.
Sonic said only 67 people are here.
67 people?! I thought?
Then in my dream Sonic said, "Look over there at the earth." I was so scared when I
saw the Earth then. The oceans water were replaced with lava, or blood, and the
green land turned dessert like! The earth gave off a red aura. Sonic said that the
Tails Doll took over. It was too late. We couldn't stop him... But then I asked Sonic
where we were going, and he said "Mobius."
Then I woke up.
In another dream I had, I was alone, in a great black nothing, or so I thought! Because
then, the Tails Doll showed up! The tails doll said "NoW yOu CaN nEvEr EsCaPe! I
thought "Why?" Tails Doll replied in "YoU kNoW mY wEaKnEsS!"
"WHAT?" I said. Then I woke up. I will look over the data, don't worry.
____________________________________________________________________
Hello. It's Wrath the Wolf again. I feel threatened.
First one of my dreams was Sonic, giving me the Blue Chaos emerald. The next day, I
dreamed that Shadow was after me for the Emerald. The next day, before I went to
bed, I played Shadow the Hedgehog, and completed a Pure Hero-Hero Mission, and in
my dream, Shadow was protecting me from the Tails Doll! I then locked the game up,
knowing in my heart that if I complete a Dark mission, he will be after me.
Anyway, I found out the Tails Doll's weakness! I'll post it in another email, because my
Sonic Riders:Zero Gravity copy has errors sometimes when I play Tails Missions. This
HAS to be his work -- trying to make me play Sonic R. But it won't work this time! This
weakness needs to be done on the REAL Doll, or it won't kill him the next time!
I'm writing this while playing Live and Learn. And in my next dream, I saw Earth,
covered in flames. People dead on the ground, and the Tails Doll standing on a
throne, with his minions. I was flying, like Silver the Hedgehog would. They didn't see
me, however. I'm scared. Will he be after me next? If so what for? Someone please,
help me! I feel closer, closer, that he is here! I feel, an evil being behind me..
But Sonic is observing Tails Doll.
I am nothing but a coward.

Do you remember Miki2006? She's still on her quest to find her brother, and she's
sent us an update!
I'm here to give you updates on my mission. First, when I'm not busy with my mission
to kill Tails Doll and get my brother back, I have been reading the stories. I think my
brother may be one of these seven pure souls -- otherwise, why bother taking him
when I was willing to give my soul for his? The Doll fears me. I think that like seven
souls, there are seven protectors to prevent him getting them. I would be one because
I was Joey's sister. I have to cut this short he's trying to get one of his followers to kill
me. I'll talk to you later.
Damn that girl, she's revealed that each pure soul has a guardian to protect them and
she is right. I do fear her, because if she finds the other guardians, they can easily
take back the pure souls but, I'll kill her before that happens and the creator of this
site -- and anyone who tries to stop me.
Can you feel the sunshine
____________________________________________________________________
DarkRyder feels the grip of the Doll tightening upon his very life and sanity...
Am I Sonic fan? Well, I do like Sonic games...But, I don't aim to buy every single one.
However, after hearing about Sonic R so much, I wanted it...Badly! It was like a fever! I
was constantly on the search for it!
Wait, let me back this up, so you understand more. I had heard of the Tails Doll
before, while reading a fan-fic on Gamefaqs, and I thought he was just...well, a Tails
Doll! But, I started seeing the name more often, and so I started asking people. You
all know the story, and I learned of it. I was fascinated by this Tails Doll! I didn't
actually believe in the curse, but I pretended to believe in the curse. Why? It's simple
really. For some excitement! To give me something to be afraid of!
One night, after listening to "Can You Feel The Sunshine?" on Youtube, I got up and
turned around. The lights were off, and I saw a red dot. My heart skipped a beat, and
quickly rushed to my light to turn it on. Light makes me feel safer, even though I like
the dark. Anyways, it actually turned out to by my Yobo Wiimote charger, which the
red light was reflected in a mirror. I couldn't help but laugh. I laughed at the fact of how
foolish I was.
A couple of days later, I got Sonic Gems Collection. I immediately jumped to Sonic R. I
thought to myself "This is gonna be quicker than Super Sonic!" for, I am very good at
videogames. Anyways, I played through it for a couple of straight hours, and I had
gotten 100%. I was disappointed at how short it was, and how boring it is with only one
player, for, no one ever plays with me. Out of resentment, I suppose, because I always
beat them, and perhaps disinterest, for I am the only one that I know of that likes to
play.
I went to four player tag, and I hovered the cursor over the Tails Doll. I couldn't help
but grin. But before I selected him, I stopped and decided to wait until midnight (to
help the spooky atmosphere, and scare myself more). When it was around midnight, I
turned off all the lights, and closed my door. I went back to Sonic R, four-player tag,
and selected the Tails Doll. Not too long after a minute, I had gotten everyone but
Super Sonic, which I had expected. I chased after Super Sonic relentlessly. He was a
real pain, and I was very frustrated. Super Sonic hit a wall ever so slightly, but it was
enough so that I could catch up to him, and tag him. At which point, the power went
out.
I was very confused, and even a little spooked, which I liked. But soon, after I heard
thunder, and realized that the storm might've knocked out a power line. However, I
thought I could see a faint glow on the TV...The glow of the Tails Doll. I thought
nothing of it, thinking it was just the afterimage. You know, like when you stare at
something intently, and then close your eyes, and you see a somewhat shape of it?
Well, I decided to go to bed...Not like there was anything else to do. As I was going to
bed, I was constantly thinking of the Tails Doll. I could not pull my thoughts away from
him. When I fell asleep, I had a dream, that felt, and seemed so real.
I found myself in what looked like a gym locker room. People were laughing at me, so I
snapped at them, which only made them laugh at me more. So, I just opened, what
must've been, my locker. Inside was a note, folded several times, and at this point
everyone stopped and started walking away silently. I took the note, and opened it. It
read Meet me at 8:00. But...meet who, and where at eight? And 8am or 8pm?
Anyways, the day in the dream just disappeared, and I found myself going to bed. I
slipped in, and closed my eyes. However, they were immediately shut tighter, as I saw
something red in my black vision. I started to feel a pain in my body, and I arched my
because of the pain. I then painfully called out "Mom..." and that is when I opened my
eyes...
Was it ever a dream? Or did that actually happen? I couldn't tell, because when I
opened my eyes, my back was arched, and I was still calling out for my mom a little.
Also, my whole body was sweating and my heart was racing. I really don't know if that
was a dream, or real life. For my sake, I hope it was just a dream. And if it was a
dream, was that the REAL Tails Doll, and not my imagination, trying to pull me to the
other world? Real or not, I am now a little more cautious about the Tails Doll. I'm
careful not to get scared when I'm tired, because that's when my mind really lets
loose. Still, I do occasionally when I want to have fun...Except I will never play as the
Tails Doll again on Sonic R.
The cursed doll...It truly is a curse...The worst kind...The kind that occupies your mind,
and constantly makes you worry. Whether Tails Doll is real or not, his curse is 100%
real...Can you live life with the curse? You ought to forget about the curse, and the
Tails doll.
Oh! And before I forget, I have a question for you. Can you feel the sunshine?
Cause I can only feel the dark and beautiful moon...
____________________________________________________________________
A lass named Rouge claims that the Doll may have been partly her fault...
I am partly to blame for the origin of the Tails Doll. You see, I created it for a friend
long ago, and... well.... here's what happened.
I was sitting there, thinking of what a 12 year old girl would want. A boyfriend? No. I
can't just crochet one out of yarn. A dog? No. She'd want a real one. A father? No.
Not enough yarn to do that. What about a friend?
A doll, perhaps.
I stared down at my crochet hook and yarn, then at my shelf, full of hand-made Sonic
Dolls. "Ha," I thought, "10 years old and I already know how to crochet." I remembered
that my friend loved Miles "Tails" Prower. And frankly, I had never heard of any Sonic
R. I decided to make a Tails Doll -- but not just any Fox doll... a special one.
I picked up my tools and worked on the Doll for the next few hours.
Then, I looked it over. It was woolly and warm. It stared at me, emotionless. I decided
to add the final touches. Life.
I took a Life Gem from my box of voodoo and put it on a piece of wire I had sewn onto
the doll's head. Then, I picked up a vial of blood and a syringe and injected it into the
gem. This gave the doll veins and arteries. Then I took a human heart from a package
and put it in the doll's chest. I felt an immediate pulse.
One final touch at the risk of the doll tearing or ripping. That would be bad. I wanted
this special doll to live forever. So I took a bottle of Life Dust and inserted it into the
gem. Then, I sewed up the doll's chest and it sprang up immediately. It stared at me
and spoke. "I'M ThE TaiLS DOll, WaNNa PLAY?"
I chuckled. "No, but I know someone who does."
The next day, after I gave my friend the doll, I heard that there was a murder. My
friend had died. I stared at the newspaper and cried. Then I read a line on the page
that bore her last words... and gasped. That sentence stuck in my head like a coat of
wood glue:
"The doll came for me with an axe and he asked me if I could feel the sunshine. And
now I can. It hurts me so badly..."
____________________________________________________________________
GlowingPlank has had some rather nightmarish reveries of late. Could they be a call
from the other side...?
Call me GlowingPlank. So, I've been having some dreams about the Tails Doll.
My First dream: I was walking to class. When I got in, nobody was there. The lighting
was dark and with a tint of red. In other words, it looked completely depressing and
evil. I decided to walk out because i was totally creeped out. As I was walking through
the hall, I saw posters of the Doll -- covered in blood!
I proceeded and thought nothing of it. As I proceeded, I realized the walls were
covered with blood. I started to run when I saw a box, with regular tails plushies in it. I
kept running and saw another box, with Tails Dolls in it. I decided to pick up the pace. I
then came across a box with Tails Dolls covered in blood. I ran outside. Then the
dream ended.
Now, I'm a frequent blogger, so I started a super natural blog and posted about my
dream. A real mistake
Second dream: I was hanging out with my friends at Dorney Park (An amusement
park, if you didn't know.) We decided to go on the new ride, Voodoo. I never trusted
the ride, but I wanted to ride all the rides in the park, so I went on. As we got on, we
were told the ride needed maintenance and we had to get off. After we got off, none of
the rides were there. I turned around to see my friends reactions, but they were gone.
I started to run when I realized that everything was black.
Except for a light.
You know what light I'm talking about.
As I caught a glimpse of his face, I saw that I was back in the park, and I saw my
friends' corpses. "That bastard,' I thought to myself. I was overwhelmed with rage. I
charged at the Doll. I was trying to destroy his gem. He knocked me off of him --and
yes, he is strong. I heard a crack and that was the end.
The Cuts: Ever since then, I had been waking up and seeing cuts on my arm. It's
been a long time since this happened, and now they are scars. I stopped researching
the doll and the cuts stopped. I thought that I needed people to hear my story. I fear
that if I keep up the research, he might step out of my dreams and into reality. I need
to do more research to stop him though.
That song: Flex period in my school. Flex is like a free period in my school. I was
sitting there drawing Sonic characters when I heard the song.
You know, THAT SONG.
I heard it clear as crystal. I had to get it out of my head so i tried to think of a different
song, but then I heard "Living in the City." It was so strange. I heard the song the for
the whole period
The Urge: Then about a week after that, I had this sudden urge in 4th period to draw
the Tails Doll. Luckily, I had no paper near by so I couldn't draw him and preform the
other form of the curse. I'm still alive, but the tails doll can attack anybody!
____________________________________________________________________
Very Scared Plum sends us this tale of tears and fears...
I have a roleplay board with extra boards for those who don't want to RP 24/7.
Anyway, a user friend named John posted a picture of the Tails Doll which creeped
me out. I am a fan of Sonic, but only owned one game for GBA or Game boy advance.
He said one way was to unlock the Tails Doll was to play the original Sonic R. I went
to my friend Vallery's house, since she still owned a SEGA and I bought a copy from a
used game store that not only sold used games for current systems, but systems no
longer made, like original NES and stuff.
The guy behind the counter warned me, saying "Be careful. Some say the Tails Doll
eats those who unlock him." Anyway, I played and unlocked it despite him. Nothing
happened. In fact, we went back for the Gamecube remake and it still did nothing.
As a last ditch effort, we tried playing in the city backwards with a drawing of Tails Doll
in a locked room. We went into the master bathroom and did it.
Still nothing.
Vallery jokingly said "Maybe, like 'Bloody Mary' you have to say the line from can you
feel the sunshine to get him" I shrugged and chanted "Can you feel the sunshine does
it brighten up your day" The next thing that happened still haunts my dreams.
The Tails Doll appeared and snatched Vallery's soul away. I tried to stop him, but he
stabbed my arm and that was the last time I saw my friend alive. She was dead now,
and I was bleeding badly.
Her parents found me and assumed an axe murderer had come in and tried to kill us.
Being lucky and surviving, I feel so horrible about Vallery, so I decided to warn people
not to try the new way, which is like Bloody Marry -- never look in the mirror and sing
"Can you Feel the Sunshine? Does it Brighten up your Day?"
Because, it only ends in tears, and for me, Fears...

1337w00tn3ss is a thirteen year old with strong views on the Doll....
Ok, a couple months ago, I was on the computer doing some usual web-surfing and
while looking up Sonic videos on Youtube, I stumbled across something called 'The
Tails Doll Curse'. Yeah, sounds stupid, and that's what I thought, but I watched one of
those How-to-summon-him things. It seemed interesting to me, cuz I heard a lot of
people say he was real and a lot of people saying he was fake. I was online chatting
with 2 of my friends (we'll call them B and K). I tell B of the curse thingy and she goes
"Sounds a little demented." (I had 100% and all characters unlocked on Sonic Gems
for Gamecube for AGES!) Also, to people who claim to play Sonic Gems collection on
PS2, it was only released on Gamecube, it says so on the case!
(Editor Quacker's note: Only in the USA)
I told K the same thing and she goes "Hmm, so you gonna try it?" I wanted to, and I
kept looking up more info on this curse, and I eventually came to your site. A lot of
odd-ball stories, I tell ya. But anyways....
I tell B and K I'll do the curse (keep in mind, this is Saturday at around 10:30 at night)
B replies, "Are you sure?" She looked at your site as well. "What if he IS real?"
K replies in the same tone. They both stay on until I tell them how to do it, so they
know what I'm doing. I did the bathroom curse-- the one where you draw a picture of
the Tails Doll, play 'Livin' In the City' backwards and lock yourself in the bathroom at
11:00 until the song's over.
I tell B and K I'm doing the curse thing (at this point B is now telling me that it's
pointless and that I'm basically a moron; K is just concerned) and they both stay on.
Meanwhile, I'm in the bathroom in the dark, listening to 'Livin' In The City' backwards
on my mp3. A little over 5 minutes later, the song finishes and I sigh "Well, guess it
was a fake." (I knew the Tails Doll wasn't gonna leap outta nowhere, but being in the
dark listening to something backwards would make you a little jumpy) I send them a
message: 'Hey I'm back. See? Nothing to worry about, I'm perfectly fine. Turns out the
curse was bogus, what a ripoff! lol '
B is relieved although disappointed that I attempted the curse in the first place and
signs off. K is extremely happy that nothing happened and then signs off.
Even though I was okay, I started having weird dreams involving the Tails Doll and
started getting a lot less sleep. I come to school Monday extremely fatigued. K and B
show worried expressions to me when I see them, but B says as the school days go on
that "You're just being paranoid!"
K on the other hand shows concern at my tired expression and tries to help me out.
(She was always a closer friend to me than B ever was, I'm glad i trusted her more)
Three days go by, and I'm reduced to sleeping in the classroom. I tell B about it and
she says "You need to tell your mom about this." I shrug it off and talk to K later in the
day. K says, "Are you sure you're okay? This has been going on for awhile..." She
lends me her Knuckles plushie that she had "borrowed" from her brother, which only
comforts me slightly. Then I downloaded 'Open Your Heart' on Airmp3.net and felt
better as I listened to it on my computer and on my mp3.
Funny thing though, the artist was under Sonic Team, and I only had it on there for
one day, and after I came home from school, I pulled up my media player and it was
wiped off of my entire computer. I tell B about it, she's just angry at my belief in the
whole curse thing. She even said her mother thought I was stupid for believing in it.
"Look through your enitre library, maybe you just missed it." I did, I rechecked at least
3 times! "Then just redownload it and quit being so paranoid already!" I go back to
airmap3.net to get the same link, but something was wrong with it....It said 101% of
download complete (perhaps leet speak for lol? I have not yet figured that out) and it
was now a text document. Coincidence? Not to K, when I told her, she was actually
extremely worried about me, since I could barely eat or sleep due to my anxiety of this
whole damn thing. I tried to play Sonic CD on Sonic Gems Collection (and I was on the
last zone, too!) So I beat Eggman, and Amy's jumping up and down and when the
screen is supposed to white and then to the 'Sonic Boom' sequence, my tv screen
goes gray and makes a noise like a car horn went off. (My brother and mother and
father all heard it as well)
Of course my parents never knew that I did the curse in the first place...That is, until B
tattled on me after I told her of my latest nightmare (I had a dream where the Tails Doll
was literally cutting me open, replacing all my blood and organs and bones with
stuffing, then he stitched me up to be one of his many additions to his collection, it
was very graphic) And my mom yelled at me for scaring her, when she wasn't even
worried! I felt so angry and I felt hate towards B, pure hatred......K knew I was ready to
snap, I was at my wits end, no one believed me! Not my friends, not my family, no one
except her! I took most of my anger out on myself unfortunately, and left scars on my
arms.
Now I still occasionally worry and look over my shoulder when I walk alone. I am doing
a lot better for the most part, but I really am curious about some things-- I've heard
that if you get all of the Time Stones in Sonic CD, it's supposed to reverse this effect
the curse has, but I have all but one in my new game data file. It's doing everything in
its power NOT to let me get the last one, and in Sonic R I've noticed Super Sonic
actually being Stalked by the Tails Doll which weirded me out. I do believe in the curse
and so does my friend K, that the Tails Doll is a spirit (perhaps misunderstood, evil,
who knows?) reincarnated into his plush form. However all these "coming out of the
TV or closet or computer" theories are a bit far-fetched. I am not flaming on these
other stories, but they do seem a bit unrealistic. However, I still do worry about K's
sake as well as mine, since we are the only ones in perhaps our entire school that
believe in it.
There's my story, no massive murders, no jacked up plush dolls with weapons, no
possessed people, just my point of view going through this whole curse thing. About
as real as it gets, sorry if it's not that interesting as other tales, but mine actually is
real.
____________________________________________________________________
Sonic 123 sends us this tiny tale...
I have encountered this doll, and I know this evil. It almost had my soul. One
afternoon, I was swimming when all of a sudden it started to rain, so I went inside.
When I got inside, I played my copy of Sonic R (99 percent beaten), I just needed to
finish the Tails Doll. Ten minutes later, I beat him in a race.
Later that night, I was in bed with my Sonic and Tails plushies...
WAIT! I don't have a Tails plushie!
Oh, its just my cat.
The next morning, my parents found me dead. In the air, one could make out the
faint strains of "can you feel the sunshine does it brighten up your day"
I said it almost had my soul. I never said I survived.
The tails doll will kill you...
____________________________________________________________________
Ah, a new recruit to the world of the Tails Doll. Welcome, Sierra... welcome...
It all started when my brother, Cole, got the Sonic R Game... In three days he beat
the game with all characters unlocked and all Chaos emeralds. 100% Complete!
Then my brother asked me to play it. My name is Sierra W. and we at first didn't know
about the Tails Doll so I said, "Okay, I think it will be fun. It’s a Sonic game after all,
what could go wrong?"
I was wrong about it being fun and wrong about saying, “It’s a Sonic game after all
what could go wrong?" I felt very uneasy while playing the game... I kept hearing this
faint voice saying in my head, “Can you feel the Sunshine?" I started to feel scared.
I asked my brother, "Hey, do you feel scared?" He shook his head. "No, why do you
ask?"
I really didn't know why, so I said, "Sorry, I guess it was my imagination." So then he
showed me how to play, I said, "This game is cool!" Then I unlocked a new character.
He looked like Tails except he had a red gem on his head!
"Hey, what's this?" I had shivers up my back. I was terrified to look at its eyes and the
blood red gem! "Cole, look! It looks like Tails! But it looks creepy."
Cole looked at it. "I wonder what this is? I'll go look on the internet." He came back with
the name Tails Doll. Even its name sounded creepy.
"Cole, does the Tails Doll Look creepy to you?" I asked.
Cole thought it over it a bit. "Only a little, why?"
"Well,” I began, “It makes me a little scared that's all."
Cole then shook his head and smiled. "Maybe it's our mind playing tricks on us?" So
Cole then went to the tag menu and decided to be Tails Doll.
"HEY! I got the Tails Doll! I should be the Tails Doll FIRST!" I grabbed the Game Cube
controller, then I hollered, “Mine! Keep away Cole!" I then tagged Amy, Eggman, and
Tails. Super Sonic was the last one for me to catch! Then I said, “Look, Cole, I'm
about to catch Super Sonic. Come look!"
Cole said, “Ya, let me see!" Then I got Super Sonic by sliding into him! I started to get
very scared. I looked away from the screen and as I was turning, I said, "Cole, I'm
scared! Something keeps saying, ‘Can you feel the Sunshine!’ in my head!"
Cole didn't answer; he was pale and kept pointing at the screen. He was trying to say
something. "Doll! It's the Doll!"
I asked, "What are you talking about?" I felt a tug at my long hair. "OUCH!" I yelled and
turned around. It was the Tails Doll! He was pulling my hair! I tried to scream, but
nothing came out of my mouth! I managed to say, “Cole, help!" I didn’t get an answer
so I looked around.
Cole wasn't there and the door was open! He had left me there to face it all alone! I
turned around and smacked the Tails Doll. He scratched me and left me a scar by my
eye. The Tails Doll then said, "Die, you foolish child." The lights in the house started
flickering and the Tails Doll laughed harshly. "You will now feel my wrath."
I cringed. "What did I do to you?" As I said this, the lights went out. "Mom, Dad, help!"
I could see the Doll's Gem. He was getting closer. I ran from the room! I remembered
my dad had a really big flashlight nearby. I grabbed it. Why did it make the lights go
out? I wondered foolishly. Unless maybe it doesn't like light?
I tried to turn on the flashlight, but it wouldn't work! I panicked! I took the battery out.
"Oh shoot! It's out of battery power.” I then remembered that we had some extra
batteries in the kitchen. I ran as fast as I could to the kitchen, but I heard the Tails Doll
coming down the stairs. "Where are you, child? Would you like to play? Play? PLAY!"
I screamed in my mind as I rummaged through the kitchen drawer and fumblingly put
the batteries in. One battery fell to the ground and rolled all the way to the stairs
where the Tails Doll was proceeding down. I heard it pick up the battery. I heard it
come into the kitchen. I didn't see the red gem though I was straining my eyes.
I was grabbed from behind and thought it was him when I heard, "Come on, Sierra!
Put the battery in!"
It was Cole! I struggled as sweat trickled down my face. My hands slipped as I finally
got the last battery in and turned it on. I shone the light at the kitchen door and the
Tails Doll was there! He screamed, "THE LIGHT! IT BURNS!"
He disappeared. The last thing Cole and I saw was the fading of the bloody red gem
and the last thing we heard was the Tails Doll saying, "I'll get you Sierra and Cole W.!
Also one question I have for you: CAN YOU FEEL THE SUNSHINE?"

ShadowedStranger95 returns with the continuation of her tale...
April 14th 2009, 10:32am
When I saw TD in my back garden I freaked and quickly finished the email so that I
could defend myself. I was talking on a chat with some friends from the Tails Doll
Research Lab so I told them what was happening. They freaked, too. Instead of
running, I decided to protect the house by pouring salt on the windowsill and chanting
every protection spell I could think of (I'm a Wiccan, I believe strongly in magick).
Luckily, it... kind of worked. He made that threatening little sign where you pretend to
slit your own throat and floated away. Big mistake. A few seconds later one of the chat
members - jean - told us the Tails Doll had arrived at their house. I'm so sorry, jean!
Good thing they're okay now. I should be more careful.
Lately, I've been having a lot of reoccurring dreams. Normally, they're about me at the
London Expo performing then the Tails Doll suddenly appears and rips my arm off,
but now it's a way more vivid dream and seriously scary.
I was walking down what looked like a spooky medieval dungeon corridor. Doors,
chains and burning torches lined the cobweb-covered rocky walls. Behind the doors, I
heard screaming; horrible screams of pain and despair. I ran faster and faster, trying
to reach the end of the corridor and escape. But it kept going and up ahead was
always dark like a bottomless pit. Suddenly, when I thought I would wake up, I heard a
heavy door slam shut somewhere in the distance. The sound of hurried footsteps
echoed around the walls. Ichigo came from the darkness running towards me. She
was terrified, yelling at me that I had to run, that something was wrong....
She stopped suddenly and her expression turned to one of pure horror and pain.
Ichigo fell to the ground with a knife in her back. Floating behind her, half cloaked in
shadows, was the Tails Doll. My friends have told me this dream was his way of trying
to scare me. To weaken me. I'm not giving up. I'm a hunter and I'm gonna act like one!
Not to mention Ichigo gave me a Sonic plushie to go with my Tails plushie so they can
protect me.
11:01am
Oh yeah.
Plenty more odd sightings of the Tails Doll lately. Just the usual. I see him waving at
me from a hole in the ceiling at school, catch a glimpse of him in the forest on the way
home. I think I'm starting to get used to it. Pretty soon maybe I won't be scared of him.
One thing's for sure.
Whether my soul be pure or tainted, dark or light, I'm gonna stop that doll. He can
scare me all he wants. I'm not gonna let him win. With Justice as our leader, we will
never surrender.
NEVER.
____________________________________________________________________
Mimzy makes a tough choice, but is it the right one?
Many people suffered from the Tails Doll's appearance. But I - Mimzy - will not become
a minion to anyone! Here's my tale......
Today, my best friend had a gift from one of my relatives. It was a Gamecube with a
copy of Sonic Gems Collection. Since Miranda and I had to go to a basketball game,
she wanted to play Sonic Gems first. After school, she raced home.
I sighed. "Many people can't resist video games!"
"Hahaha!"
I went home and continued the rest of my fine day.
The next morning, I was walking to school until I saw a horrible sight... Miranda's
house had police and ambulances! I ran over to the crime scene.
Everyone was in Miranda's room. I looked in and saw Miranda dead. The Gamecube's
power cords wrapped around her neck and her heart was ripped out of her body. And
her best Tails plushie was ripped to bits next to her. I gasped. The police were
searching for any sign of a killer.
No killer was found.
I started to cry. My best friend was dead by a mysterious killer! It had to be the work of
a clever killer or the work of the Tails Doll....Until figured out I was him!
I was late to school so I had to leave her house. After school, I brought a notepad and
a pencil. I was busy drawing the Tails Doll being destroyed. I crumbled up the picture
and threw it in the trash. I was determined to stop this horrible beast from stealing the
lives of the people that I cared about.....or my own self. I entered Miranda's house and
walked back into her room. Miranda, obviously, wasn't in her room ... the power cords
weren't plugged into the wall, yet the screen was on Sonic R. I gulped and took a note
down on my notepad:
March 13 2001, 4:27 PM:
Now that Miranda is dead, I have no other friends to share happiness with just a
eternal black fire without light... only darkness. Darkness of hatred and death, hoping
to survive the pitiful world of hell... and as for Miranda, I hope she will be safe and
happy in heaven were she will be free to roam and frolic. As for I, Mimzy, must rot in
this never-ending maze... without hope...
I set down my notepad and turned to the TV. I started up the game and went to
"Grand Prix". But Sonic wasn't on the character list! I got confused and went to "Time
Attack" then clicked on "Tag 4 Characters"
Finally! Sonic was there! I scrolled over to the Tails Doll. Then read my notes one last
time.
"Feeling scared?" said a voice.
I turned around. "W-W-Who's There?!?" Nothing answered me. I was really scared
that I might end up as the same as Miranda. I had to be brave. I picked the Tails Doll
and the stage was Reactive Factory. "Ready...Set...GO!" The tag was on. The first
character I got was Egg Robo, then Metal Knuckles and Metal Sonic. Finally, I had to
catch Super Sonic. I raced around trying to catch the speedy hedgehog. Eventually,
we were colliding into each other, then I tagged him.
It went to the victory screen showing that I won. Until the TV flickered and went to
static. The Tails Doll started coming out of the television. He floated towards me.
"Does it hurt to bleed? I hope so..." A knife just appeared in his hand. I took a quick
glance and started to run away. I screamed as the Doll tried to catch me. I ended up in
the kitchen, backed up into a wall. The Tails Doll dropped his knife and floated up to
me again.
"Want to Play?" Metal claws came right out of his fuzzy paws. I was trapped! I knew i
was going to die.
Until I grabbed him and threw him into a pantry.
I ran home,went into my room,and shut the door behind me. "Come out dear child,
come and play with me," it said.
"No! Never! You're a demon who steals the souls of people that have friends to care
about! You may even take theirs....and..I...must...stop you!!!" I said.
The Tails Doll used his metal claws and ripped the door off. I screamed. I was so
freaking scared... I got on my bed and held my Pikachu plushie tightly. Hoping that the
Tails Doll would leave me alone... The doll circled around me then up to my face.
"Now I can play with your SOUL." Suddenly, he stabbed me! I fell to the ground.
Feeling faint or perhaps death's sting?
The doll looked at me. "Now, do you want to become a slave to me? Or do I have to
kill you?"
I had no choice...I wanted to live.. "I will become a minion to your army, Master..." I said
weakly.
"Excellent...." The Doll took the knife out of me and I suddenly healed. "Now...Go find
some souls for me slave!" I walked out of my room and went outside and started to
search.
Now I am a fellow slave of the Doll. But I have to figure out a way to get out of his
grasp without dying...
Next time I will find a way to escape...
~Mimzy

After all this time, I've finally gotten to Master_chief Michael's final tale... May he find
the rest he deserves.
It hasn't been long since I last wrote to you. Of course, that's because he's very
persistent. It's times like these that make me think back on my life. Of course, I don't
have much to live for right now. Running for so long... and now I am tired. Time for my
rest. So, Tails Doll, bring it on. You want me, you can have me. I'm tired of avoiding
you. This is fate I suppose.
I dunno what will happen... either I will die or I will be a servant to him... either way
brings damnation on me. Maybe it won't be all that bad. Some people are happy to be
his servant, just for being alive. Will I be happy too? Will I be happy to be alive and
serve him? I don't know.
I hope you remember me. I'm Michael. Why do I use my real name? Well, I figure he'd
find me anyway. Why try to hide that I'm the one writing? And as I predicted, he has
been able to find and track me down, numerous times.
I wonder why he's so evil... perhaps he feels cast aside my the world and seeks
vengence for the all cruelty and materialistic things that this world is known for.
Perhaps he's just evil because he finds it to be fun. There are many reasons for such
behavior.
I have learned much from this chase, however. When you can hear and feel the
sunshine, he is close. The louder and warmer it gets, the closer he gets. I can still
hear it... I can hear the sunshine... but I cannot feel it. I cannot feel anything. Not
warmth nor love nor hate nor cold. The Tails Doll... even without killing me, I am
already dead. Perhaps he's been toying with me (no pun intended) and this is how he
wanted it.
Please, whatever you do, do not say this curse is a hoax. Too many lives have been
taken and destroyed by this simple "hoax." Take it from me... six long years of
running. I've been traveling from place to place for too long. At first, it was a year or
two before he found me. But as time went on, he's been finding me quicker... and he
is not happy... I don't think I'm one of these pure souls he wants... which is why I doubt
I'll live through another fight with him.
Oh well... I guess... Hmmm? Yes, I can hear it...
Heeheehee... the music, it won't die. It won't get out. It won't leave me in peace. I'm
going crazy... heeheeheheheeeheheheheheheh...
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH.....!
...I cannot feel the sunshine, Tails Doll... I cannot.
Perhaps you'll show me what it fe-

Paranoia Agent has had an unbelievable journey, but his work is far from done....
I have been marked by the Tails Doll.
The doll took me to another world. At first, I thought I was in a video game, but I'm not
sure now... I was trapped for approximately five years. I was such a foolish child...
It was my twelfth birthday. My mom gave me the Sonic R game I'd always wanted. I
heard of the curse and wanted to test it -- so foolish.
I beat the game 100%, but nothing happened. I was disappointed. I went to bed. When
I woke up, I was laying on soft, damp grass. I looked around and saw that I appeared
to be in a Sonic game, judging by the loop-de-loop with a star post on it. I was
ecstatic. Convinced that I was dreaming still, I ran to the loop-de-loop and failed to run
up the curve. That was the best day of my life.
Three days later, I finally accepted the fact that I wasn't dreaming. I was scared. I had
no shelter, and the only food around were coconuts. I'd been running around trying to
find a town of some sort.
After a week, I found one. Not just a town, a city. I wasn't sure if I should enter
though... the sign read "Robotropolis". But, I was scared and alone, so I went inside.
Everyone had shut themselves up in their houses. Even the badniks or swat bots or
whatever were supposed to be there were gone. It almost seemed abandoned. I later
discovered Dr. Robotnik wasn't even there. He was dead. Because of the Tails Doll.
The accursed toy offered me power. If I became his angel of death, his messenger of
darkness, he would give me power only to be under that of a "deity". My other option...
death.
I had no choice. I accepted.
He turned me into a creature of the night... a bat. A Mobian. A furry. It wasn't so bad. I
had a slightly sadistic nature to begin with. It grew immensely. I slaughtered many. I
pleased my master greatly. A large portion of Mobius's population dropped. I was
enjoying the power...
Until I grew bored. I decided to do something daring. I challenged my master. He
accepted, amused. I was reduced to a whimpering puppy when he was threw with me. I
loved it. The pain... I felt alive. That's when it hit me.
I had become hollow inside. I was disgusted with myself. I betrayed my master, helping
the Mobians escape from him. It helped, to a degree. But I still felt empty. He and I
fought twice more. I won only once. I crushed the jewel, and he became nothing more
than a robotic toy.
Grateful, the Mobians spent months, a little under a year, researching the doll's
technology to send me home. Unfortunately, they could not turn me back into a
human. So, I am once again a creature of the night, never accepting sunlight
Amazingly, though, my mom knew it was me and welcomed me home.
A year passed. I found your website. I realized the Tails Doll could not be so easily
destroyed, for it lives in the fear of peoples' hearts. That is why, I will not stop until I
destroy all the Tails Dolls. I refuse to sit by knowing it's still hurting people.

You probably don't know #264 by name, but you may have read their posts on the
'net...
Hello. My name is #264, at least now it is. My old name is not important anymore...
I have exclusive rights to post this from Him. It took a while for him to respond, but he
said it was okay, as long as I start working a little harder.
To think I was safe, not doing any of the curses, but I was DEAD wrong.
I may have been like you, being a Tails Doll researcher. I believed in him, and of
course, do still. I was soooo fascinated with him -- a curse from a video game, how
cool is that!? I NEVER did the curses, not once! I was too much of a scardy cat. But as
a researcher, I knew of the myth: "Having to do ANYTHING that includes the Tails Doll
may result in the activation of the curse itself.", so I was always edgy, and had trouble
sleeping. I was good for about a year, nothing happening, even sleeping fine! But
then, I started to have dreams about him. They weren't scary at all, but they weren't
good either. All I saw was Him. I wasn't scared, but wasn't happy. Almost like having no
emotions at all...
After a month passed by, and about 15 of those dreams, I decided to download Sonic
R and an emulator for it, and try it out. It wasn't my kinda thing, but strangely
addicting. Then, in no significant part of playing it, I passed out, and had another
dream with the Tails Doll in it. I felt scared in this one, for the first time. He also spoke
to be for the first time. He had a strained voice and said to me "You have what I need".
I asked what he was talking about, by answering with the question "M-My Soul?". I
didn't think much of this event, as I knew it was a dream, but I wasn't waking up, which
I usually do after realizing I'm dreaming. He said 'No, your soul is not right. It's too
unballanced. I need you to work for me -- or parish." I asked what I would do, and
what would be the benefits. I ALWAYS ask what the benefits are. He said "If you would
for me, you will have immortality, and can do what you wish, as long as I approve of it.
If you deny me, you will suffer a stroke right here and now." I was scared, but did it. I
felt a shock after agreeing, and he vanished.
I woke up 1 year later. My house was abandoned and boarded up. My computer was
in front of me, good as new and with Internet connection. I was shocked an
disoriented, and then a transparent Tails Doll was next to me. I frantically asked him
what was going on, he said "After you signed yourself away to me, I killed you as
quick and painlessly as I could, and stored your soul in suspended animation in my
Realm. I reactivated you after I made your house unavailable, so you my live here for
eternity." I was still in shock, but accepted what has happened. Then after a few
second, i realized I had the body of a Tails Doll, and he noticed my shock, and said "I
have given you this vessel so you may do physical tasks for me." I asked "Like
what!?", which then he replied with what I had to do, on my computer...
I've been doing this for almost a year now. You know those people on the internet who
say "Tails Doll is NOT real!."? That is my job, along with some of his other
'Employees'. It's not so bad. I get to play games and do stuff on this computer. But it
gets boring being in this abandoned house for so long. I some times wish I was the
dolls who cursed people, but apparently "I wouldn't be able to DO that"! He wants us
to do these things so people don't bother him as much, so he has more of his "ME"
time! People interrupt that a lot. Honestly, I just wish life would go back to the way it
was...

Fox sends us part one of their tale, "Into the Woods"...
My name is Fox, and I have seen the Tails doll...
It was our annual easter party, and about 40 guests came, uncles, aunts, cousins,
and more. Even my best friend Trevor came. We were jumping on my neighbors
trampoline, until we saw a glowing light.
"What's that?" My little cousin Hunter asked. I wanted to say that too, until I knew what
it was.
"RUN," I yelled. My cousins came running with me, and we hurried into the woods.
"What the hell was that?" asked my older cousin Mitch. "You need to know," I said. I
told my cousins about the Tails Doll, and I'm glad I new about him... or we would have
died.
"Can you feel the sunshine?"
An orange plushie appeared near us. "Is that yours?" asked my cousin Lauren. "NO,"
said the creature. The "thing" had glowing black eyes, a red gem, and two fuzzy tails.
But most of all, it held.... a knife. "You. Fox. You," He cried out, his dark eyes fixed on
me. "You....." he kept saying. "What?" I said finally. "Fox.. I'm scared..." Hunter said.
"Listen." I said to the Tails Doll. "Spare my cousins." He laughed. "I'm here for you..."
He held his knife closer. "I have a question..." "What?" "You want to be... a Tails Doll?"
He knew?
I wanted to be one. I felt evil inside...
"You all run. Fox stay." My cousins ran away, screaming, except for Lauren and
Trevor. "Heh. Well, do you?" He stared at me, his eyes seemed to burn into my skin.
"No."
"Well, I'll kill you now!" He threw his knife at me, and, I ducked out of the way. Huh? I
thought. "No.... you die!" I never thought I would say that. But I did -- I grabbed his
knife and cut him up.
"WHAT THE HELL?" asked Trevor and Lauren. The doll's gem dropped to the
ground. I picked it up -- big mistake. The gem flew up, and attached to my head. "No!"
Then I threw the gem off my head, to the ground. The tails doll's gem stopped
glowing...
"Are... are we safe?" asked Lauren. "Yes," I replied quickly.
But deep down, I know the answer... was no.
To be continued.....

Let's kick of May, with the tale of October Wulf, who loves to play with fire...
Hello friends, you may call me October Wulf. Ever since I've seen your site and read
the stories I've become quite skeptical of the curse. Let me explain...
Years ago, I had become a rather big fan of the blue blur (I still am). I began buying all
the Sonic games available and started to beat every single one...
Except Sonic R, at first.
I had got the Gem Collection and thought it was pretty cool to play all the classic ones
that brought back old memories. When I got to Sonic R, I just played around, not really
trying to unlock anything specific...but accidentally unlocked the Tails Doll.
I didn't like him from the start. I had never really liked dolls, mostly just cause I thought
they were too girlish. But this one? This one, I became afraid of. The way it stared at
me just made me cringe in fear. I never really played as him at all -- until one
afternoon.
I decided to try and beat the game, 100%. I started off and effortlessly unlocked all the
stages, characters, and secrets. I was so happy that I had accomplished it. Then I
made a mistake.
I decided to play Tag mode.
I chose Super Sonic, since he was the best. It was rather easy... but then something
odd happened. I started to have trouble finding the Tails Doll. His marker would say
he was in one place and when I got there it would suddenly jump to the other edge of
the track. Eventually I found him, but he wasn't moving. He was just floating there. I
looked at him for quite some time, but he wasn't even facing me.
The next thing that happen, I will never forgot for the rest of my life.
Instead of turning around or taking off, he turned only his head, just so one eye was
looking at me. It made me jump and I dropped the controller and I accidentally tagged
him. My game froze. I tried to press the reset button, but no use. So I just turned it
off. That worked. I decided to just stop for the day and take a break.
Later, I wanted to play Sonic Adventure, which I was close to beating, but all my game
data was erased -- all of it! It was freakin' brand new. I tried to re-save some games
on it, but no use. I took it to a Gamestop and they couldn't tell what was wrong so I
trashed it.
Then 'that' night came -- the night I had my worst nightmare. At least, I think it was a
nightmare. I was laying in my bed, about to go to sleep when I began to hear that
infernal music.
"Can you feel the sunshine?"
My TV turned on and on it was a picture of the Tails Doll. Then it came out of my TV. It
was coming toward me and I grabbed the only thing I had and threw it at him.
Thank God, it was a Shadow plushie.
It hit him dead-on and he screeched, but not like a scream -- like a knife on a
chalkboard. Then he was gone. I woke up in a cold sweat, trembling. I hadn't
screamed so my parents didn't hear me. I swore to stop playing Sonic R for a while.
Until I found this site. I started to play again (against my own common sense), but I
sucked. Then it went missing. I was about to give up looking for it and was just going
to buy a new one, but as I walked out the door I tripped on something.
The game.
I started to play it again and I was really good I almost beat it in ten minutes, but I
stopped at 99%. I decided to have some fun and do that one "curse" where you play
"Livin' in the City" backwards at school, in the gym. I didn't stay in the bathroom, but
watched the clock. As soon as it hit a minute the steel, heavy, gym door blew open
from a large gust outside causing quite a lot of leaves to blow in. All my friends weren't
phased, but I was speechless. I ignored it however, and when I got home, right now at
this very moment, I beat it and tagged Super Sonic with the Tails Doll.
Nothing has happen...yet.
I pray I haven't made a horrible mistake.

Eliza writes us with her tale of a slumber party massacre....
My name is Eliza, but all my friends call me Knuckles for my hot temper and my
willingness to fight all the time. I go to your website everyday now, reading about HIM.
Two years ago, I barely even looked at it, thinking it was a big fat joke. That was the
worst mistake in my entire life.....
On June eighth, 2007, I received Sonic Riders for my sweet sixteenth from my two best
friends, Lauren and Alyssa. We were surfing on the internet when my third and final
guest Linseay came. Little did I realize that he was in her bag. Of course, she acted
normal and, 25 minutes later, brought out her father's Saturn and Sonic R that she
"borrowed". We played for a bit and Alyssa left to fix her hair. I was playing alone on
Sonic R as Lauren and Linseay got some cold pizza from the fridge. That's when he
claimed his first victim for the night.
Alyssa screamed bloody murder, and shouted about Lauren's "Tails plush." I ran
upstairs and tried to open the door. Locked. I ran back downstairs and grabbed the
sledgehammer from the garage and broke the bathroom door down. There she was,
and Alyssa seemed OK at first, but then she wavered and fell to the floor, with my
pocket knife in her back. She was stabbed to death. Then, soon afterwards, Lauren
started screaming, but almost stopped immediately. Sliding down the railing, I rounded
the corner and halted. Lauren was now dead, and the Tails Doll was advancing on
Linseay.
"Pathetic mortal." the Tails Doll said, swiping at her with my pocket knife, "You are no
longer a use to me."
With that, he dove through her -- an instant kill -- leaving me the only soul survivor. I
knew that I was screwed, because the Tails Doll had spotted me now. He lunged for
me, but I managed to block his blow by grabbing my own pocket knife by the blade.
Pain seared through my hand, but I just ignored it and the Tails Doll began licking the
fallen blood.
"Don't move."
A Shadow plush soared through the air and smacked the back of his head, stunning
him long enough for me to shove him off. My older cousin Erik had been aroused from
the noises upstairs (he sleeps in the basement, which is a very nicely refurbished
room, I remark) and grabbed his Shadow plush and 12-gage shotgun. While the Tails
Doll was down, Erik fired three rounds through his bosom. The doll screamed in
"pain", and, having enough bloodshed for the night, disappeared. I haven't seen the
Tails Doll since that night, but I visit this site as much as possible now, learning about
him. Watching. Waiting for him to return.
But the next time I see him, I'll be ready........

Harry sends us this quiver-inducing quickie....
One night after school I came back home. Suddenly, my mum said “Harry! Go up and
turn the heater on”. So, I went upstairs and I saw that my PS2 was on. I thought I must
have left it on before I went to school, but the problem is -- I am not allowed to play on
the PS2 before school.
I decided to play Sonic R, since it was on of the best games I have ever bought and to
my horror I heard a giggling sound from under my bed, and thought I saw two red
eyes. So I went downstairs where my family was (I am scared all by myself )and
watched television. On the screen, it showed a message: "Can you feel the
sunshine" I got really freaked out and my mum sent me up to bed early.
I had to take precautions so I recorded the song “Live and Learn” on my PSP, just to
be safe. Suddenly, I saw the Tails Doll so I put on the song “Live and Learn” on and I
sang to it. Luckily I escaped, but there was a letter under my bed saying “You have
won this time but you will obey me”
I have yet to hear from him again…..

"Joshua" has quite an interesting theory on what will help against the Tails Doll... but
as with other theories, will it really work when the time comes?
I know EXACTLY what the Tails Doll is and how to HELP him see the error of his ways.
I have been studying the Tails Doll for the last week and after reading dozens of
stories on your site - including the one about his origin - I've come to the conclusion
that he is most definitely a Kitsune.
A Kitsune is a Japanese Fox Spirit. They are magical spirits that possess the ability to
create or modify reality, produce fire and lightning at will, and the ability to assume
human form and posses humans. They are intelligent, clever, and mischievous as
well. They are also amoral; they do not exactly know the difference between right and
wrong. They do what they think is right. Also, in order for them to survive, they
require sustenance. Most take it in the form of the element it represents draining the
area it feeds at. Like if a water kitsune is near a body of water and it feeds, the water
level in that area goes down for it is sapping the very essence of the water.
The Tails Doll on the other hand is probably a Void Kitsune. Which means it has the
ability to modify or create space around it. Creating endless voids and filling them with
things it thinks should exist. This kind of Kitsune is not satisfied with elemental energy,
it must feed on human souls which are the greatest source of sustenance available.
And this I'm OK with since he is doing what every animal does...EAT!
Now, I will tell you how to help or protect yourself from him since I think destroying him
is wrong. Since he is a Kitsune, magic or psychic abilities and items work on him. I
suggest using a Black Tourmaline Gem to ward him off since they contain VERY
powerful protection from negative, not evil, energy. Also magic spells should work.
Kitsunes also hate religious figures since they can break their reality by simply
touching anything within it.
Reading through the website, I also noticed some stories about Sonic figures coming
to life and defeating or warding off the Tails Doll. If this is true, then it might be
possible to use a Naruto - and I mean NARUTO - figure to help in the situation. You
see, Naruto is a Kitsune too. But he is full of positive energy. Which means he might
come to life and talk to the Tails Doll, Kitsune to Kitsune, and convince him to stop
being so negative. Plus, if he comes to you, make an offering. Kitsunes typically love
fried tofu and some like pretty items. Or even play a pretty tune that relaxes you and
makes you feel calm.
It's unlikely the Tails Doll will come after me to destroy me for putting this up because
of the fact I'm too a fellow Kitsune. I'm a different kind though. See, I'm the kind of
Kitsune that was born into a human body. It isn't much different from the Spirit Kitsune
I mention up above other than the fact that my powers are MUCH weaker and I don't
have the ability to shape shift which Kitsunes can do also. But at least I don't need to
feed. It's due to the fact that I have a human host to call my own.
The reason I'm posting this is because of Kitsune Law. One of the laws states that you
must help fellow Kitsune... which is what I'm doing. The Tails Doll has become a rogue
Kitsune because he is killing people for no good reason. This isn't the typical
behaviour of a Kitsune. It appears he has become emotionally unstable and I have
become concerned for his safety and the safety of other beings. The law also states
that Kitsune must also help people who willingly ask for help. So I'm sending ways to
protect yourselves and possible ways to help him.

"J.S." sends us a short incident... do you dare replicate it?
My name is not important, but I have been cursed by the Tails Doll for some time now.
Nothing was more exciting than me seeing the red light in my bathroom really
happen... until now!
I was really bored today, it being spring break and all, when I was listening to "City
Escape" from Sonic Adventure 2. I decided I wanted to see if it would sound cool if I
synced it together with a different Sonic song. I chose "Living in the City." I opened up
two YouTube tabs and played them both at the same time.
All of a sudden, I felt a tremendous weight fall on top of me! My head and arms
banged down heavily on my computer desk! With all of my strength, I paused the "City
Escape" tab and deleted the "Living in the City" tab.
I decided that that was creepy enough to get submitted here, but as I was typing your
site name in Google, the YouTube tab I left open of City Escape started playing again
halfway through at the part where it says, "Aw yeah!"
So here I am typing this. I have no idea what happened and probably DON'T want to
know what happened! All I know is that there is some connection between these two
songs. Well, what do you think?
____________________________________________________________________
Joshua's life has changed drastically upon his encounter with the Tails Doll... but was
it real or just a dream?
I have come bringing GREAT news...Hopefully.
I should begin my tale of how I gained my "Power".
My name is Joshua Wubker - well, it used to be. Now I am considered as Ultima. I have
known about the curse for a very long time and I wanted to try it out, so I downloaded
Sonic R off of the internet. It was quite easy and fun... or so I thought.
After I beat Sonic R and tagged Super Sonic with Tails Doll, I went to play Ghost
Recon Advanced Warfighter. On several missions I played, the number 666 kept
flashing all around my screen and I got creeped out, but that went away. About 5-6
weeks later, ON HALLOWEEN, I went to my cousin's house to spend the night. The
day was pretty uneventful, but it got very bad at night VERY FAST!!!
When I went to bed, I had a short dream and woke up. To my horror, it was the Tails
Doll himself. He told me that he would come for me when I least expect it.
That is when I started to get spooked.
November 8th, 11:00
I went to sleep that night, but quickly woke up when I had a dream that Tails Doll
stabbed me in my stomach. My shirt was covered in blood. I looked up and the Tails
Doll was holding my baby brother.
He said with a very large grin: "I said I would come when you least expect it. You're not
the only soul in this house, though."
I was so mad I lunged and bit the Tails Doll's arm and tore a chunk off.
"Agh, you mortal, now you shall pay!" After saying that, he flew into our kitchen and I
sped off to get him. I looked at our table and I hate the fact I have to say this...
He turned my baby brother into a doll.
He didn't look at me as he said, "Foolish mortal, I am a god. There is no way YOU can
defeat me!"
Becoming very angry I yelled, "THERE IS ALWAYS A WAY!" and I ran at him like a
bull. Without any effort, he turned around and sliced my arm.
"You are very amusing, maybe I don't have to kill you after all. Join me or DIE!"
"NEVER!" I lunged at him again and he tried to stab my heart, but I held my arm so
tightly, he was now struggling to get that knife close to my body. He turned around
and started speeding towards my brother.
"NO!!" I lunged at him and grabbed his gem by accident.
"Since you have touched my gem, you are going to die no matter what." As soon as
he finished that sentence, I started to feel pain all throughout my body. I opened my
eyes, and to my surprise, my arm was actually healing. I looked at his gem and it was
turning grey.
"What!? NO!" He started getting weaker and weaker until he finally fell, motionless.
Was he actually dead? He must have been. I cut off the gem and put it in my pocket
as a souvenir...
But wait, I didn't have pockets in the pants I wore when I went to sleep! I rushed to the
bathroom to discover my appearance had drastically changed. Here are some of the
changes below:
Black, spiked hair.
Black overcoat
Red T-Shirt with a black skull
I grew a few inches taller, too.
I was very shocked, but also relieved that he was dead. I went back to my computer
and checked my e-mail... I had a very strange message.
Subject: It is Time.
Sender: Sonic the hedgehog.
I opened it and I got Chaos Controlled to Mobius. There I was told by Sonic and
friends that I killed the Tails Doll, halfway.
They said that I did kill the original Tails Doll, but as long as other dolls existed, Many
would still be unsafe.
My family thinks that I was killed by a hired assassin by a person who had a grudge
against me. As for my brother, he is fine. I now have the power of teleportation, flight,
fire, and psychokinesis. My life is now good. And that is it.
Your Friend,
Ultima

Sunny is a furry -- literally...
Hi. My name is Sunny, and believe it or not -- I'm an animal, like Sonic and the
others. I have had an encounter with the Tails Doll. Before I became a Hedgehog,
however, I was a human.
Back then, I had just heard of the curse. My best friend Lucane told me. When he
said that the cursed game was Sonic R, I was emotionally shattered. I had that game!
I said, "Stop trying to scare me Lucane!" He said, "I'm not lying." Then he started to
laugh all maniacally. Lucane said, "Hey, let's beat the game and find out!"
I thought about it. "We really shouldn't, but let's do it." I went and got Sonic R and we
started doing the tag thing. I was Tails Doll. He was Super Sonic. Finally, I tagged
him. Suddenly, Lucane's phone rang. He picked it up and "Can You Feel The
Sunshine" could be heard on the other end. Then, Lucane said something a little too
inappropriate to say on here. I grabbed the phone from him and destroyed it.
The next day we started to draw (I hope it's okay to get off track a little). I drew two
Sonic-style anthro characters based off of myself, and Lucane. I called mine Sunny
the Hedgehog. Lucane drew his character killing the Tails Doll. Finally, I came out
and said "You know he's going to get us sometime."
Then a voice said "So you think you can do that to me and get away with it."
Something orange hit Lucane in the face and he crumpled against the wall. It was the
Tails Doll. He turned around and said "Now,you can die,or be my slave." I growled,
"What do you think?"
Lucane pounced on the Tails Doll and started stabbing him and saying "Get away
from her you f**kin' a**wipe!" Then,a darker orange thing was floating in the air. It
said "Come on!" I focused and saw it was another Tails Doll (I think it said something
about him on this site)! They evil Doll hurled my friend onto the floor and rushed us.
The good Tails Doll moved in front of us and said, "Well, I can't leave you here!" He
touched us. Then we fainted.
As I was starting to wake up, I heard my name being called. "Riquel? Uh...Sunny?" I
woke up and saw a pair of orange and red eyes. "Lucane?" He said "Uh..maybe you
should..." Then the nice Tails Doll said "Look here!"He held up a mirror. Yellow and
pink fur? Gloves? A tail?! I had become my character, Sunny!!!
Well, that's my story. Currently, me, Lucane, and this Tails Doll are working to fight
evil Tails Doll. Please be careful.

Euphie is yet another soon-to-be-victim that did not heed our warnings...
I won't say my real name so... I'll be called Euphie...
My friend and I wanted to do the Tails Doll curse but we didn't have the guts.
Eventually, I told her that we should try it for once.
"Are you sure, Euphie?" she asked. She thought that we shouldn't do it. "Of course,
Kallen (we like to be called names from Code Geass) nothing will happen. It's just a
dumb thing some fans came up with." This was in December. Around...December 19,
to be exact. She said that we needed to get together sometime, but we never found a
time. I decided to do it myself. That was a bad choice.
I turned on the lights in my bathroom. I closed the door and locked it. I took out my
MP3 player and played "Living in the City"in reverse. I waited for about a minute, but
then quickly turned on the lights because I was frightened. Ever since that day...I've
had the feeling of being watched...when I'm alone in my room. One night, I heard
something outside my window. It sounded like 2 knifes being scraped together. I held
my Shadow and Sonic plushies close to me, while whispering "Sonic the Hedgehog"
over and over again. The sound soon went away. The feeling of being watched is
now an off and on feeling.
If anything else happens, I'll be sure to keep you updated.

Just because you are a servant of the Doll doesn't mean you can't have a kick-ass
theme, as Kingultra.exe explains...
Here is a story of how I became the Tails Doll's most trusted slave.
It was 1 year since I began serving my invincible master. He said to me, "for your
service, I will make you my right hand servant."
I replied '"Can I get a custom theme when I appear?
My Master stared blankly, "Uhhh...sure."
I said; "Listen to this!"
It was the same as the song, "Airman Cannot Die," except the Airman/Woodman parts
were replaced with "Tails Doll" and the parts about their attacks with "his deathly
stare", and "Crystal of Doom."
Tails Doll mused. "It is perfect. Now, there is a soul I must collect, but he is watching
for me, so I must go into you."
That night, at the home of these people who resist my master, I knocked on the door.
They didn't know my master lurked inside me, so they let me in. That was the last
thing the ever did.
As soon as they were all in one room, "Tails Doll Cannot Die" started playing.
They screamed, "It can't be!"
MY master came out of me, and one by one, we took each of their souls. From that
day forth, people who had heard this song have been turned into dolls and died.
You cannot defeat Tails Doll!You cannot dodge his Blood Red gem!

Could Javier's dream be the key to our salvation?
Hello, My name is Javier, I hope the TD isn't listening in on my conver-
Oh crap! I thought I heard something!
Anyway to the point, The Tails Doll will attack you, even if you don't have Sonic R!
Don't fear it, for I had a dream, which showed our saviors. One of these figures said
"Hello, I am one of the saviors. There is one of us in each continent, which must all be
awakened. When this happens, an aura will appear in the sky, merging our world with
the one you know as Sonics! The event will occur in 2011, and we will see the true
realm of Tails Doll. In the meantime, you must collect all time stones. I can't tell how it
will help, however you must... "
Then, my dream ended. All I know, is we can save the final pure souls, and all of
humanity! Lets hope it can save us!

ShadowedStranger95 sends us an update on her condition...
Hi everyone. This is ShadowedStranger95, again with my latest diary entry to show
you all. I gave up on my PC copy of Sonic R and bought the PS2 gems collection
instead.
13 Feb 2009 4:29pm
I CAN'T BELIEVE IT! MY NEW COPY OF SONIC GEMS COLLECTION HAS FINALLY
COME! I ORDERED IT OFF EBAY AND I'M JUST ABOUT TO PLAY IT! I KNOW
ABOUT THE TAILS DOLL CURSE AND I BELIEVE IN IT, BUT I THINK I SHOULD
PLAY THE GAME TO FIND OUT MORE! First race is on Resort Island as Tails.
5:42pm
I'VE DONE IT! After a few tries on Radical City, I've unlocked Tails Doll! He's a really
good character to play because he can float really fast and glide over water. This is
gonna be good!
14 Feb 2009 2:50pm
I went on MSN and my friend Ichigo came online. I said hi and she suddenly told me
to go on video call. She kept saying it like she was terrified. When I answered the call,
she said that I had asked her if she could "feel the sunshine." I don't remember writing
that! But... wait... it's on my chat history! I'm so confused!
7:48pm
Okay I am officially creeped out. My laptop overheated and switched itself off. Then
about 15 minutes later, I finally get it back on and Ichigo is on MSN again. She said I
was on a video call with her just a few seconds ago singing the lyrics to "Can you feel
the sunshine?" over and over. Somebody call the "Twilight Zone."
22 Feb 2009 10:11am
I haven't had the chance to write anything in a while. I am very, very, VERY scared. My
eyes still keep turning red when I look in the mirror. I've been updating the hunters
site and doing more research on the doll. I'm gonna send this entry to Quacker and
Bowen soon, if I can. You're not gonna believe what's been happening.
A while ago, I made up my own alphabet of code letters so that I can write in my
notebooks without anyone being able to read it. I keep it secret and nobody else
knows how to write it. But one day at school I was reading the graffiti on the desk and
I came across something that looked familiar. Someone, or something, had written
"Tails Doll wants you" in my special code! I'm watching more and more videos about
TD every day. Some of them really scare me. But I know I need to learn everything I
can if I want to put an end to the horror.
10:27
Forgot to say. School is one of the last places I want to be at the moment. Ichigo and
I were in the Pyramid. It's what they call the biggest computer room at our school. We
were going to see if Ichigo could rent a locker. I already had one. She was talking to
the teacher when I looked in the direction of the locker room. I tugged her sleeve.
"Ichigo I need to talk to you outside."
"Can it wait?"
"Not exactly."
She sighed and followed me outside. I was shaking.
"What's wrong?"
"I saw him... he was sitting on top of the lockers... I was in hysterics. "Ichigo, he was
staring at us!"
Ever since that incident, I keep seeing that dreaded doll every day. I know he's
following me. He's following Ichigo too. What the?! HOLY SHIT HE'S IN MY BACK
GARDEN! I've got just enough time to send this before I run! Be safe everyone!

John R. thought it would be fun to try the curse a few times. You can imagine what
happened next...
So, I'm a big fan of the Sonic series, and I play every game I can find of it.
I first learned of the Tails Doll from my friend Joe. He told me all about what it could do
and what it was. I was creeped out a little by it, but I didn't think it was real. I had my
iPod touch at the time and I pulled up a video of "Living in the City" backwards, and
before I could play it, Joe snatched it from my hands and told me "no." It was this that
lead to me to want to preform the curse.
I kept the curse in my mind and I thought about doing it many times, but I didn't.
My friend from school gave me the Sonic Gems Collection. I was pretty cheerful that
day, but I was nervous about playing the game because of the curse.
Eventually, I did play the game and I did everything I needed to and beat it 100%. I
was one step away from the curse. My lights were off and I prepared for the tag 4
characters thing. I got everyone easily, and before I got Super Sonic, I saw that my
Tails Plush had changed. It now had a red orb coming from it's head. My eyes
widened and I quickly turned the game off. I flipped the lights on and he was back to
looking like normal Tails. I stopped playing the game.
Most recently, my friend Alex came over and we hung out for the day. We were chillin'
at my place for the night and he noticed I had the Sonic Gems collection. He knew
about the curse as well and I knew he wanted to preform it. I had the game saved, so
capturing Super Sonic was all that you needed to do. I let him do it, being my dumb
self.
He played it, taking the longest time to get 3 out of 4. When he almost got Super
Sonic, the TV screen went pitch black and it flickered the game on and off. It had
never happened before and it freaked us both out. He threw the controller in my
direction not wanting to play it anymore. Minutes later we did it again, though this time
he got me to do it.
I got them all pretty well and I got Super Sonic with no problem. I froze, waiting for
something to happen and nothing did. We relaxed ourselves and about 5 minutes
later, the screen flashed off again and it flickered the screen again. I ran out of the
room.
Now, being our stupid selves, we did another part of the curse. We played the song in
a dark bathroom, and just what I thought would happen, happened. A red light started
to glow behind us and that was when I ran out the room again, followed by Alex.
Later that night we kept seeing weird stuff. At 3 am we actually did it again. To this
day, I regret doing that. It's been 2 days since we did it and my luck has been running
out. He's here somewhere... He waiting for his chance and now I feel like everywhere I
go, he's there. I hear the same words every time I go into the bathroom and look into
that mirror. In that low quiet voice I hear...
"can you feel the sunshine"

Teammember send me a letter, asking the simple question:
-------------------------CaN yOu FeEl ThE sUnShInE?------------------------
I woke up this morning, knowing it'd be a GREAT day! So I walked outside, to get the
mail, but I stopped cold once I saw it.
Everything.... was covered in blood. So, I ran back inside, and plopped on the couch.
I turned on the TV, but it was all static. So I went upstairs. My brother was still
sleeping, so I went back downstairs.
Now, the whole room was covered in blood. It was on the walls, Television, and couch.
Where I had been sitting, there was a mannequin, covered in blood. On closer
inspection, It looked like me.
Then I heard a scream. I ran upstairs and discovered my brother has hanging, dead
His neck stuck through a hook on the wall. Then I heard a horrible, never-ending
scream. The walls were collapsing. My ears were bleeding.
I was panicked. I ran down the street to my friend's house. I told her what happened,
but of course, she didn't believe me. Then, we heard another horrible screech, like a
million nails on a blackboard.
Suddenly, it all stopped. We thought it was over. We heard a sound "Shhllluuuumpy!!"
We were terrified.
Then, We saw the Tails Doll.
My friend was so scared, she couldn't even scream. It lunged straight at her, phasing
into her, taking away her will. She was taken over, and couldn't control anything
anymore. All I heard was an evil echoing phrase, over and over, extremely loud,
saying "YOU WILL DIE!!"
My ears started to bleed again, so I ran and ran, but nothing worked. I turned around,
only to see my friends ribs rip out from her body, killing her and releasing the Tails
Doll in a spray of gore. The orb on his head then sucked up all the blood, and he
lunged at me. He caught me, knocking me onto the ground. Then he took over my
body too.
The last thing i ever heard was....
...."Can you feel the sunshine?"

Trent L has an important warning for all of us -- Play with fire, and many people could
get burned...
I... Have been cursed.
The Tails Doll has taken everything.
Allow me to tell you my story. I should have told you sooner...
It was on August 25th, 2008. I had been browsing your site, and been looking
through the Tails Doll stories. As most people, I simply dismissed it as pure fiction.
That was the greatest mistake on my life.
I was bored, so I decided to try to tag 4 characters with the Tails Doll. I did so, and the
screen went to the character selection menu. The Tails Doll was missing. Of course, I
was frightened, and I looked around for any sign of him.
Nothing.
I decided to go play DS and fire up my copy of "Moero Nekketsu Rhythm Damashii
Osu Tatakae Ouendan 2" (Rough translation: "Burn! Hot-Blooded Rhythm Spirit: Hey!
Fight! Cheersquad 2")
As I was playing, I noticed something peculiar on a character known as Honoka Kawaii.
She usually had a small, stuffed, pink bunny with it's tongue sticking out, attached to
her skirt. Instead of said rabbit, was to my surprise --
The Tails Doll.
Surprise, surprise, I freaked out and turned the game off before running to the
computer to tell my friend (Who is also a fan of the game) about this discovery, but I
soon found out that they had been banned from speaking to me, and anybody that
they didn't know online.
A few days later, I found out they had died. A copy of Sonic R was next to them in a
CD case. The CD case was broken, and it had been used to slice their neck.
Instead of destroying me, the Doll seems to want to torture me a little, first. I give you
a warning that you may not be it's only target, should you release the doll! It may
target the ones you care about.

Aura needed our help, and we let him down...
HELP!!!!
I'm trapped by the doll in my room with my pc. How did this happen? Well it all started
when I beat the Tails Doll and unlocked him. I give the curse a try since at first I did
not believe the curse. It was 11:59, but then I had a Sonic plush just in case. After 1
hour passed and I won the game the door bell rang, so I reach for the door knob and
grabbed the Sonic plush. There was the doll. It try to grab me, but the doll stunned It.
I dropped the doll and ran to my room. I was TRAPPED.
So that is all. ifyour what to avoid the curse powers dfrhtgfgtukjhol;.l;.
Hello, mortals.
How do you you die from internet? i just grabbed this mortal and threw him on the
floor. I'll be seeing you soon.

I was searching the piles of old letters in my inbox, when I discovered this missive from
Shade the Wolf. Let's hope he's still OK...
Um, Either my emails are being intercepted by the TD, or you don’t post stories from
escapees of the TD’s fortress…
Anyway, I’ve got an update from the intarwebz.
The Tails Doll is starting to gather all of the world’s souls…starting with the people
who Haven’t even touched Sonic R, and ending with the people who have been
unlucky enough to complete it…
The last encounter I had with the Tails Doll left me…split. As in I now have SPD Split
Personality Disorder
And I also have this power to build anything without instructions…
Well, down to the point: I’ve been playing CaveStory a lot recently, that and being
online… and sometimes my computer crashes… Maybe the Tails Doll is trying to
make me play Sonic R?
I’ve also had a WEIRD thing happen to me: One night, I heard “Can You feel the
Sunshine” In my head CLEAR AS DAY!! I also had the Tails Doll visit me in my dreams
several times… one time, he just stood there… and another, he actually tried to
possess me… causing my SPD.
Well, I hope this message gets to you…
____________________________________________________________________
You can call him Mephiles, as his dreams are about to turn his life into a nightmare...
My name is Christian, but due to the dreams I’ve been having, you can call me
Mephistopheles (Mephiles for short)
My dreams began about a couple days after I got Sonic Riders…
And every dream, the Tails Doll’s Hunters have stolen part of my soul, and dying
shortly after, which is why the Tails Doll is trying to kill me. I have killed a total of seven
of His Hunters so far, and it WOULD’VE be eight, but one of the bastards escaped last
night… And the 5 last night were just there to observe… not the usual Search and
Retrieve… I think the Tails Doll killed Dante, because I haven’t heard from him on the
Mega Blast forums (My username is Shade the Wolf), and it bothers me a bit… Also, I’
ve had increased violent thoughts, which isn’t my normal personality.
Again, You haven’t been posting my stories… Are my emails being intercepted?
I’ve been very cautious lately… I always look over my shoulder, and I also hear His
voice in my head, mocking me, taunting me… I feel like my enemies are trying to get
me… I also feel like I’m a Pure Soul… Which is true, since I’m a half-breed (Half-
demon) Which is why the Tails Doll is acting cautious as well, sending his Hunters,
and not coming after me himself. I can also see aura, and read the Tails Doll’s mind.
Mephiles, signing out.

A dude nicknamed "Tails" has been getting some bad vibes lately, and I think we all
know who is behind it...
OK before I start, you can call me "Tails". Everyone in I know calls me that anyway,
don't know why, though. I won't say my true name for, shall we say, "special"
purposes...
I just thought you should know that I think the Tails Doll is mad at me for not doing the
whole curse. I beat Sonic R 100% but didn't do the bathroom stuff yet. Strange things
keep happening to me. Like when I go to take a shower, I keep feeling like
something/somebody is watching me. Also, when I was laying in my bed I looked out
my window at in the BIG tree next to my house, I swear I saw the red dot in my tree!
Another time, I woke up with a big scratch going down the side of my leg! It was from
the knee to the ankle,almost in like a backwards "J" form.
And one time, I felt really tired so I went for some quick Z's, and when I woke up, I had
the urge to draw something, but when I opened my notebook to do so, there HE/IT
was right on the first page. It was really creepy, to show you I'll be uploading it soon to
show I'm not lying.
WOW.
Just now, I felt a cold chill on my back, but the fan's off. I'm starting to think he/it really
is mad at me. I think I'll do the bathroom thing alone. If anyone's gonna get hurt, I at
least want it to be me and just me.
