Evil Little Things
A young boy finds a mystical toymaker with stories to tell. The first is of a leprechaun seeking revenge on a defenseless family. The second is of a doll who works evil on her fragile owner. The toymaker gives the boy a clown named Giggles. Clowns are supposed to be the guardians of happiness, right? These Evil Little Things will cause you many sleepless nights.
Why it matters
A creepy anthology that mines childhood fears through twisted fairy tales and sinister toys, blending folk horror and haunted doll tropes with a dash of Irish myth.
- Practical effects and puppetry bring the leprechaun and doll to unsettling, tactile life—no cheap CG shortcuts here.
- Perfect for fans of anthology horror who appreciate compact, atmospheric storytelling rather than blockbuster scares.
- The toymaker framing device injects a creepy, storybook vibe reminiscent of 80s horror anthologies like *Creepshow*.
- Not perfect—some segments stumble on pacing and character depth—but the inventive creature designs and folklore roots make it worth the watch.
