The New Teddy..

Recently my daughter found this cute little teddy on the side of the road. It was still clean and had the softest fur ever. It looked like it could do no wrong. I agreed to let my daughter have it, she was thrilled but she got super attached to it (and she never has an interest in toys).. The other day she started acting.. well, odd... She seems less happy and more shaken up, like she has seen somethings... One day I came up to her, but she was staring into space. (Probably zoned out.) But when I barely even brushed her arm, she jumped so far back she fell into her shelf of trophies.
'Darling, are you alright? You haven't seemed yourself recently..' - I asked
'Y-yeah mum I'm fine I have no clue what you are on about!' - she replied shakily.
'But you haven't see-'
'I SAID I'M ALRIGHT!!' -she interrupted.
I didn't know what to say after that so I just walked away. A few hours later I caught her in the hallway just staring.. I waved my hand in her face but she didn't budge. I shook her as hard as I could but nothing... Then, I noticed the teddy in her hand. I tried to yank it out of her hand but she was gripping it extremely hard. It was like it was cemented to her hands. I finally managed to take it out her hands and she went mental.. Screaming. Kicking. (15 year old by the way) then she lunged at me and bite down on my arm and wouldn't let go. Her teeth digging deeper every second. I kicked her off with blood dripping down my arm and it was staring to bruise.
'FRANCIS WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU!?' - I scream.
Then she started... Laughing. Like a maniac. The very next day I took a picture of her holding the teddy, to see if there was anything there that I couldn't see. And I don't know if it was just me but I swear the teddy turned it's head just for a second in the photo. I zoomed in closely on the teddy and I noticed something.... The eyes were closed... It was a teddy with it's eyes open so this isn't normal. Like it blinked....
Later that night I was asleep, I was passed out after about 3 hours of trying to sleep. All night I was thinking about that photo. It couldn't get out of my head no matter how hard I tried. Then I felt something warm in my ear... It felt like someone was whispering in my ear. I woke up drowned in sweat. I went to the bathroom to wash up and noticed something on the mirror.
'Get out while you still can!'
Written in blood that resembled my daughters hand writing.. I knocked on her bedroom door. Nothing. I knock again. Nothing. I open up the door and she was sitting there motionless, with blood around her and bruised finger marks around her neck. Shes dead.. She had the teddy glied to her hands as well. I immediately grabbed the teddy and threw it out. Then as I was walking to my bedroom, something pulled me back causing me to fall down my stairs. Then I felt something wrap around my neck, I start to lose circulation in my head and I cant breathe. My chest starts to hurt. Then, everything goes black and the last thing I remember seeing while still conscious is the teddy in the mirror by me with writing on it saying
'Youve been warned...'
