Warning: the following story you are about to read contains disturbing material that may be unnerving to some readers.
It is (for some) the first Nightmare Night for the Student Six. They spend the evening in costume wondering the fairground of Ponyville enjoying the pony holiday. However, a magic show gets their attention in which the magician shows off a curiosity: a centuries-old automaton. Gallus is asked to come on stage in which, even after the show, the trick that he went along with, follows him back to the school.
A special thanks to LeylaQuartz for having this story finally be edited and inspiring to give an alternative ending.
And thank you to Zachmoviefan for his reading of this story.

Really disturbing story. Good job
Very weird. Decent horror story!
Why isn't there a horror tag?

Simply because I wasn't sure if it was scary enough to earn it. But I can if you want.
I like this sort of involuntary body control- too bad there aren't that many fics I know of using this idea. Also, poor Gallus :(
I'm actually very curious to see the teachers' and students' reation to Gallus.. you know. Can you do anything for us to see?

That honestly sounds like an interesting prospect, if one of the Students saw what really happened to him. Or more body control horror. I'm not picky.

Lol, fair enough. My eyes only went to the word "disturbing". Shows what I'm good at focusing on.
Awesome story, dolls and stuff like that always give me the creeps.

This is a pleasant surprise. I think you did a pretty good job at adapting it and I found it interesting that you went for the original ending. Thank you for putting the time and effort into this.
Being controlled against your will is one of my greater fears so this one really got to me excellent work
