(JUMP SCARE WARNING TURN DOWN YOUR VOLUME)
(Too late...)
Number 10 is Mandy
made in Germany between 1910 and 1920
Mandy is an antique
doll that resembles a baby with old clothing a
Torn body in a cracked head. Now she would be just another creepy looking children's toy
if she didn't throw temper tantrums all by herself.
After her owner experiencing strange occurrences such as the sound of a baby crying
Coming from an empty basement Mandy was given to the quest no museum in Quest no British, Columbia, Canada.
Soon after receiving her in 1991, the Museum staff began
experiencing strange events on their own. They found that when Mandy was left overnight in a room
They would find the room a mess the next day with papers and other loose items strewn about. She was apparently
responsible for stealing staff lunches and
Hiding them in other mischievous things, and could never be left alone with another doll or she tear it apart.
Just one of many reasons you wouldn't want to be alone with Mandy.
Number 9 is okiku
Almost 100 years ago in 1918, 17-year Old Ikichi Suzuki was walking along Tanuki Koji
a famous shopping street in Sapporo Japan
When he spotted the perfect souvenir gift for his two-year-old sister
O'kiku that gift was a 40 centimeter tall Kimono wearing Japanese doll
with short cropped hair that resembled the young girl. Okiku loved the doll playing with it every day and even took it with
her everywhere
She went but sadly she didn't have long to play with it and passed away due to
Illness less than a year later the Suzuki family prayed to the doll in an effort to remember o'kiku
Even giving the doll the girl's name however. It wasn't long before they realized something was
odd
Overtime the short black hair the figure originally had, had grown all the way to the dolls knees!
It was revealed that though not malicious the spirit of the young girl somehow possessed the doll and
Still does today. The ever growing hair has even been tested and confirmed by scientists to be real human hair.
Number eight is The Hands Resist Him
You'd think this doll would be rather difficult to play with
considering its seemingly just a painting of one, however according to witness accounts and legends surrounding it that
2d doll could be playing with you. Painted in
1972 by artist Bill Stoneham the hands resist him shows two figures
Standing in front of a glass door a young boy in an almost life-size doll. behind them on the other side of the glass
Several hands appear to be waving,knocking or tapping on the pane though Stoneham explained that this was based on a more positive
Memory with the glass being the barrier between waking and dreaming
those who have owned it have another theory. Some owners have seen the figures in different positions even
Finding the painting empty while they felt a presence in the room watching them. There have even been
Claims that the doll often holds a gun and forces the boy from the painting so he can scare the living
number 7 is Joliet
Currently owned by a woman simply known as Anna G this sinister doll is not just haunted, but cursed.
originally given as a baby gift to Anna's
great-grandmother by a family friend Joliet contains the souls of not one, but
Four infant boys. As the story goes each female on the family line gave birth to two children
a boy and a girl
But the boy dies after only three days
His soul absorbed by the evil doll. At night the doll Cries out as if it's a baby itself
Emulating all of the souls within it and terrifying those who see it. Truly a horrible curse on the family
This doll has been passed down from mother to daughter for four generations
With no end in sight. When asked why they don't simply Rid themselves of Joliet
their reasoning is truly sad. Each mother appears certain that if anything bad should happen to the
100-Year Old doll
Their dead son's soul will be damaged as well, thus this twisted doll will continue to take young lives in infamy
Forever.
Number six is the Zombie Voodoo doll
Officially known as the Galveston, Texas zombie doll this haunted Voodoo doll has been known to actually
physically attack its owners! In October of 2004 an unidentified woman from Galveston, Texas
Purchased this grotesque doll from its previous owner in New Orleans
the handcrafted figure arrived in a metal box which was referred to as a
Coffin thinking nothing of the confinement the woman took it out and put it on display
Only to have the zombie doll attack her at night. After sealing it back in the box the ghost in the doll
Continued to attack her in her nightmares
So she tried to destroy it only to find that it wouldn't burn and cutting into it literally broke her scissors
Finally after selling the doll on ebay. She was alarmed when the buyer informed her the shipping box was empty.
She found the doll the next day covered in dirt laying on her front porch.
Number five is Sarita
while some dolls appear Evil simply by their expressions and age
Others can apparently look like a cute charming children's toy while actually
Possessing the malicious spirit of something far less adorable such as the case of Sarita
blue-eyed blonde-Haired doll that was given to Yvonne Nunez of El Callao Peru and her family by Yvonne's
Late niece in 2010 while the doll seems cute and harmless its earned itself the title of 'the Peruvian
Annabelle' by those who have witnessed the paranormal events surrounding it. The entire
family has seen strange lights and heard bizarre noises in the home ever since
Sarita arrived and they often find the doll in different places from where they left her. The toy is most certainly
Malicious as Yvonne has found scratches on her children after they've slept in the same room
Sarita was in. The children also claimed that the doll watches them sleep
And we'll even chant or knock on walls to wake them on Occasion.

Something else Ledda. This haunted sinister looking Marionette doll is an eastern European
Puppet and has been dated by museum to be around
250 years old and is said to contain the spirit of a six-year-old boy who drowned in the late 1700s
multiple people have reported breaking down into crying hysterics or screamed

unfortunately still owns it today

People who simply laid eyes on some of the photos anthony posted reported having severe headaches or becoming
Incredibly dizzy and confused some even woke up after having nightmares only to feel Harold's presence in their room
Watching them. Psychics were ultimately called in and claimed multiple spirits were attached to the doll
One of them being a man named Harold, from whom the toy got its name another a woman who was mentally unstable,
And a demon who announced he'd danced with the devil
Number two is Robert the doll
given to Painter and Author Robert Eugene Jean Otto in
1906 when he was only six years old this terrifying toy already looks creepy enough

That's right according to genes parents the Young boy would often be heard
Whispering and even giggling with someone when the only ones in the room were him and the doll
Robert. According to genes parents the Young boy would often be heard whispering and giggling with someone
