Series 6 Episode 9: Night Terrors

From now on we know that "Monsters are real!" The newest Doctor Who episode was a bit creepy in my opinion and it had a nice twist. Stop reading now when you haven't watched the episode yet.

Summary:
The Doctor gets a distress call from George, a small boy who is scared of the monsters in his closet. His parents don't know how to help George any more and his father his quite happy when the Doctor arrives at his doorstep to solve the monster problem. Meanwhile Amy and Rory are in an elevator but after it fell down several floors they are in a strange house where everything is made out of wood. The Doctor investigates the closet and finds out that there are really monsters inside and that George is not a normal boy. George is an alien who came to his parents because they wanted a child so badly and now he locks everything he is afraid of into the doll house in his closet. The Doctor and George's father land there as well and George is the only one who can save everybody.

I really liked the new Doctor Who episode and the dolls were so creepy. Who wants to be turned into a doll because of the fears of a small boy? I didn't expect the little boy to be an alien though. I like the two story lines with Amy and Rory in the doll house and the Doctor helping the little boy but it's most of the time Amy and Rory locked up somewhere and the Doctor has to save them. They could think about a different plot line soon. Anyhow it was a nice in between episode which gave us a pause from the big saving the universe thing the Doctor always does and he was back in his normal jacket. I loved the little boy. He was just brilliant.
