"Boy, oh boy"

Films: The Boy (2016)

Alias: None

Type: Natural

Location: Haunted Home

Height/Weight: That of an average human.

Affiliation: Neutral

Summary: If your first bet when handling a problem child is to lock him in a part of the house where you can't see him, you failed as parents. All you'll get is immense guilt and a kid that grows up with significant issues.

History: Braums Heelshire was a rather disturbed child who ended up killing a girl, and then his house caught fire. As far as anyone was concerned, Braums perished in that, but the parents knew better. They kept him locked up in the attic of their new estate, replacing him with a porcelain doll and hiring women to nurture the doll (and by extension, him) as he grew older. By the time he hit age 28, he found himself bearing witness to a girl suffering from both trying to comprehend the nature of the doll in his place, and some severe relationship problems.

Notable Kills: See Final Fate.

Final Fate: After his parents commit suicide and the girl's abusive boyfriend smashes the doll to pieces, Braum makes his presence known, and shivs the guy with a piece of the doll. He is then mortally injured by the surviving girl trying to get away from his madness. But as she leaves, he goes back to the attic to fix the doll...

Powers/Abilities: None.

Weakness: Anything conventional.

Scariness Factor: 3-Braums is just a very, very broken individual. We don't even know if he really killed a girl at that young an age. His parents might have just been a-holes. Granted, they were, not to that extent? Either way, you either contend with that creepy doll acting as his avatar or his insane mask-wearing self. Come to this house prepared to give love...forever...

Trivia: -A sequel, "Braums: The Boy 2", was released in 2020. It has no relation to this one, and instead opts to make the Braums doll a completely possessed entity, dropping almost all realism in the process.

-Filming was done in Craigdarroch Castle, a historic mansion in Victoria, B.C. It was made in the late 19th century for baron Robert Dunsmuir...a whole seventeen months after he died.
