Deep in the forest, a woodcarver creates charms for good fortune and beautiful carved figurines. His finest work is a figurine of a girl dancing, so detailed it looks as if she could come to life. But no one seems to appreciate the artistry of his carvings, or the utility of his charms. He travels to village after village peddling his wares, and no one buys. Legend says that far to the north lives a spirit who can grant the power to change the human heart. Penniless and with no other options, the woodcarver makes the journey. No one told him the spirit would ask for his own heart in exchange. Or how easily a real-life dancing girl, armed with the innocence of childhood, could undo the power he gave so much for. This short story is 10,000 words long. It is also available in Devil's Bargains, a short story collection.

A mysterious music box from the Haunted Museum follows a young girl home in this spooky read by the author of The Titanic Locket. Don’t touch anything in the Haunted Museum! Emma would rather be at her ballet class than at the Haunted Museum, but she can’t miss her best friend’s birthday party. In a spooky exhibit of music boxes, she’s drawn to a particular one, in which a pair of dancers spin slowly to a haunting melody. But that very night, the music box shows up at her door—like it’s following her. Emma dances better than she ever imagined when the music box is playing. But that’s not all. Sometimes the music speeds up, and the dancers seem to move on their own. Emma finds the lid open, music playing, even when she knows she’d shut it before. And then an eye appears in the mirror inside the lid—someone is watching Emma! The more Emma learns about the history of the music box, the more she realizes she needs to break the hold it has over her before it’s too late. But the better she dances when the music plays, the less she wants to! Praise for The Titanic Locket “Hair-raising. . . . Weyn keeps unexpected chills coming. . . . A quick, jittery read.” —Publishers Weekly “Weyn ratchets up the eeriness . . . and quickly builds to a stormy climax.” —Kirkus Reviews
