Did anyone watch that 2-hr documentary about it on the Travel Channel? That doll's really something. just as bad or worse than Annabelle. Now I like museums, but I wouldn't even want to take a chance & visit that museum in Kew West, FL.
So the legend or rumor says that the Otto family nanny put a curse on the doll, yet the son (Robert aka Gene) seemed mesmerized by it from the very moment he opened it as a gift from his parents (before the nanny got ahold of it).
It's really something how people live their life & pass away, yet this doll made of fabric, maybe some wood, etc. keeps living on.

So they stick around maybe? Humans send out a lot of unintentional energy which if not directed can be used for whatever purposes. I dont think we know how 'powerful' we are.

BTW, there is a couple in the US that collects haunted items and stores it in a section (basement?) of their home. It's fascinating but also kinda not smart of them lol. Basically people learn that they do it and ask if they can send their cursed / haunted items to them.

I think more people do this than we probably think. I sure wouldn't want to be the next homeowner of that place! But, will I know when I start house hunting? I'm sure the real estate agent sure won't tell me IF they even know either. They just want to make the sale.

How long ago were those episodes? I must have missed them & was thinking why Zak never did anything w/ this doll.
