Whoa, that’s SUPER creepy!!!!!! 😃  SUPER COOL, though, thanks for sharing!!!!

A couple of comments:

1)  That scene where Wren yelled at the Smilers was a little confusing.  Why would she do that if she knows how dangerous the Smilers are?  I think it would be better for Gladys to freak out instead of Wren, because Wren knows more about everything.

2)  The tension was great throughout the story, which I loved!!!

3)  You know what would be really cool is if you used more foreshadowing, ex.  classifying voices of adults (smooth, gentle, lovely) in the beginning of the story, or Wren sees/smells a specific thing when the Smilers come out (red ribbon, perfume).

I think all short stories should (since they’re so short) pack a punch.  If you develop the characters a little more and strengthen the theme, this will be amazing!!!!!!!!  I loved it (and it inspired me to write a horror/thriller/suspense book now 😂)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great job,

Ella
