There are many books and horror films that feature dolls in which evil spirits inhabit. But how can such stories be believed in the 21st century? Nevertheless, such information regularly appears on the Web and invariably arouses interest … And some specially acquire "enchanted" toys in order to see their "behavior" with their own eyes …
Devil doll from Singapore
A discarded doll was found on one of the streets of Singapore the year before last. She was wearing a stained dress with lace, and her eyes were tied with a piece of cloth with the words “bismillah” (“in the name of Allah”) written on it. Rumors immediately spread that it was not for nothing that the doll was blindfolded - they say that the devil is hiding inside the toy, and the one who removes the blindfold from her eyes will incur a curse …
Photos of the doll, both with and without the headband, were posted on the news site Reddit. “Some argue that when left alone in a room, the doll starts talking and turns its head in different directions,” the author writes. "She speaks Malay and her voice is very similar to that of a woman."
It is not known who took the doll from the street, but soon after it disappeared, suicide and a brutal murder occurred in the city, which rumor associates precisely with the intrigues of the "devilish" toy …
Spirit from the auction

In the same 2014, an old doll was exhibited at the eBay online auction, inside which, according to its owner, an evil spirit was trapped. It is not known how the doll got into the woman's house, but she said that with the appearance of the toy, some kind of devilry began to happen in her house: children woke up in the morning with scratches on their skin, the owner herself had a bruise from nowhere, and the doll sometimes “talked to children. voice … However, the woman still managed to sell the ominous toy for 108 pounds. Who dared to buy it remained a mystery.
Sinister Peggy
Jane Harris heads the Obsessed Dolls Association, headquartered in Shropshire, England. It all started with a doll named Peggy, which a woman acquired from a man. According to the former owner, since Peggy came to his house, he suffered from nightmares and experienced unexplained physical ailment.
Harris posted a photo and video of Peggy on YouTube. Soon, users began to write to her with complaints of unpleasant symptoms that appeared after contemplating the doll: someone had headaches, someone got nausea, and one woman even had a heart attack … “In total, I received complaints from more than 80 man, says Harris. - One lady said that as soon as she opened the picture with Peggy, her computer froze and the temperature in the room dropped dramatically.
Then, the woman assures, she felt the presence of someone in the room and even heard this someone moving around her. After that, I put Peggy in an isolated place and asked her to stop torturing people. And it seems everything is back to normal."
YouTube shepherdess
Jennifer Johnson, 47, from the American city of Cleveland, Ohio, is fond of collecting various "paranormal" artifacts. Among the exhibits of her collection, for example, a ring, which should be put on a finger, as a person begins to torment headaches and hallucinations … Or a ladies' mirror, looking at which for a longer time, you can distinguish a transparent silhouette of some old woman behind you …
From British military headphones, which are not connected to anything, strange sounds like interference and scraps of someone's voices are heard … A handkerchief with a dried drop of blood on it spontaneously ends up in one place or another in the house …
Jennifer recently acquired a doll depicting a shepherdess. The doll has green eyes, a hat on its head, it holds a staff in its hand … For some reason, the toy makes a depressing impression on people. The man who sold it to Jennifer said that the soul of 13-year-old Anne, who died of tuberculosis somewhere at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, entered the doll. The spirit allegedly wrote its history on a piece of paper while the owner was not at home … Unfortunately, the matter was not limited to writing. The doll itself turned its head, walked around the apartment, and sometimes the owner heard her laughing in an empty room …
Jennifer decided to check if there really was something unusual about Ann. To do this, she installed a camera in her house that broadcast the doll's image on YouTube around the clock. Ann had a clock and an electromagnetic detector next to her. Some users claimed to have seen the doll turn its head and wiggle its staff, while the detector's arrow begins to move at this time. Somehow, the broadcast was suddenly interrupted, and soon Jennifer announced that she had found the camera disconnected from the outlet. Is this the doll's handiwork?
