Details
A crate, once buried deep beneath the soil, is discovered on your doorstep. The truth of a ghastly crime is hidden within its contents and a subtle, yet strangely indecipherable scent, seeps through the cracks. In spite of yourself, you pick it up and bring it inside.
And so, you begin to unravel the story and bear the burden of young Jacob’s confession. Feeling alone against the world with nothing but a journal as his closest confidante, a teenage boy struggles through very tough times.
Now within your hands, begins the revelation of a dark, comedic and utterly bizarre horror. Page after page divulges an ever-troubling descent.
There are codes to break and secrets darker than you could ever fathom, but be warned: uncoiling the mystery of Jacob’s buried puppet is highly dangerous. If you attempt it be careful; you just may find yourself in stitches.
Synopsis
This is the story of a young man’s confession, written on the pages of his detention-centre notebook. It tells of a boy moving to a new town after the loss of his mother. The bullies pick on him, his father grows distant, and — if that wasn’t bad enough — he starts seeing ghosts emerging from his bedroom walls. That’s when he finds a hidden puppet, and puts it on his hand…
Mr. Bellylaugh, it seems, is able to keep the ghosts, the bullies, and the loneliness at bay. But is the puppet really Jacob’s ally, or is there more to him than meets the eye? The answer might be found among the pages of his journal, in his free-hand sketches, through library database searches, or somewhere far more devious.

This is my second purchase from The Mysterious Package Company and like the first, it did not disappoint! The recipients freaked out a little at first, but once they realized it was a gift from my wife and me they settled down and throughly enjoyed the experience.
Along with an engagingly chilling diversion in the form of a horrific mystery.
Would be five stars if it was a little longer.
This was my first purchase from The Mysterious Package Company and I must admit I was gobsmacked. The parcel arrived very quickly (considering I'm in UK). I opened the lid carefully with my hands so not to damage the wood and was taken aback by the contents. The attention to detail was amazing - check the bloodstains on the inside of the lid!
After I read through the contents, I was thought it was pretty cool and well worth the money, before I realised that this was only the surface level. I delved a little deeper into the story with the help of some of the other items and again was amazed at the additional details, before realising again that there was more to this than meets the eye. - I will leave it there before I spoil it!
The puppet creeped out my mrs, so bonus points there.
Such a great way to spend a day off. Im now hunting out my next purchase.
We did not know what to expect, so my husband and I missed a lot our first viewing. Then we realized their was more and it really enhanced the journey. Great plot twist. The puppet is creepy and awkward, which at first I was not sure what to think, but somehow seems appropriate.
