If you hate horror films as much as I do, you’re gonna want to take a breath before reading this next story. Apparently, a neighborhood kid in Alabama thought it would be fun to walk around outside dressed as Chucky from the 1988 movie, Child’s Play, scarring people for life who dared to be outside while he roamed the streets.

Kendra Walden from Albertville, Alabama was in a car driving with with two other women when they spotted a real-life version of the doll possessed by the soul of a serial killer. They were able to snap a few pics from far away (because why on God’s green Earth would you get any closer), and the results are truly the stuff of nightmares.

“Dear Parents of the little boy in the chucky costume in Pinson,” Walden captioned the photos on Facebook later that day. “GET YOUR KID….I almost had a heart attack.”

“I was remodeling a house in the area and me and some of my employees were headed home from that house,” Walden told TODAY Parents. “When we got closer to him we saw that it was real. It scared the heck out of us.”

Walden also noted that everyone in the car was “screaming like little kids,” as one would seeing a life-sized version of Charles Lee Ray running amok. “When we circled back around (the boy) had his mask off, but quickly popped it back on and crossed the street after we passed,” Walden said. “We turned around again and that’s when we got the photos.”

People were quick to jump in on Walden’s now-viral post:

“THIS is what happens when there’s not a Chucky movie at least every few years,” one commenter wrote. “He takes to the streets.”

“I literally would die,” said another.

“This. Is. Amazing,” someone else joked.

And, “My soul would have left my body.”

She also mention, as any good sister would, that she was thankful it was her that spotted the kid instead of her brother. “My brother Zack, who is a Marine, was working on this house the day before,” Walden continued. “His biggest fear in the entire world is Chucky so he would have died on the spot.”

I, for one, am Team Zack.
