The Eye
The Eye is the story of a young child escaping a spooky castle inhabited by an eyeless, eye-patched Queen and her monsters.
It begins with the child seeking shelter from the rain inside the castle. The Queen and the monsters welcome the child with open arms, but little does the child know that these creatures have a dark history of stealing the eyes of numerous children and are now plotting to take the child's eyes as well. They dry and brush his wet hair from the rain, serve a warm eyeball-themed meal, and even host a lively dance after dinner.
While the child sleeps, the Queen and the monsters attempt to seize their chance, but the child wakes up just in time and runs away. The monsters chase him down, but the child shatters a huge glass wall composed of eyes taken from previous young victims and gets engulfed by a massive tsunami of eyeballs.
The boy flees the castle safely, and in a heartwarming twist, the eyeless portraits of children regain their eyes and souls thanks to the child's heroic rescue.
