The Living Jigsaw

Write a story about a seemingly normal jigsaw puzzle that sets off a series of horrifying events once completed.

With every piece assembled, the protagonist triggers a real-life horrifying event that correlates with the image in the puzzle. Dissect the protagonist’s dawning realization of the jigsaw’s destructive capability, the horror of its conduits, alongside the desperate attempts to undo the effects. The focus here is not just the scare, but how it cleverly seeps into life from an innocent source, warping security into paranoia.
