The Hobby Horse
Notes de l’épisode
A tired Dublin father goes out on Christmas Eve to find the one gift his son asked Santa for, a rocking horse he can't afford.
After every shop fails him, a strange figure by the canal offers him a beautifully carved hobby horse for free, in exchange for a small and very unclear bargain.
The gift works. His son loves it.
But over the following weeks the boy grows stronger, stranger, and more alive, while his parents begins to feel something quietly draining away.
A bargain isn't just for Christmas, it's for life.
