The house has a dumbwaiter too, but Darcy says she got to use it only once. The first day they’d moved into the place, Darcy had put all her Barbies inside it and pushed the button to send them on an adventure. The dumbwaiter had stopped working halfway down, leaving the Barbies trapped behind the walls. I like to imagine them back there like tiny, beautiful vampires, waiting for the day that some unsuspecting soul unleashes their evil on the world.
