So in addition to looking creepy, which, to be honest, is every doll I've ever seen, all haunted dolls, they come with a personal testimony from the seller.
And this is really the thing that sells the dolls, in addition to the weirdness of how they look.
But what's odd to me is because you're trying to sell these things, but many of the testimonies are about how terrible having the doll around is.
It doesn't make much sense.
In fact, most of them are like that.
A lot of the descriptions you probably see on your screen, they include information about the nature of the spirit.
And some of them say neutral or playful or positive.
But most of them say negative or demonic.
And when you start reading through the testimonies, it's really quite astounding.
There was one that I read that talked about since this guy brought it home originally, he had terrible misfortune and his wife left him for another man.
And then all the other women he was with left him.
And then he lost his job and he's had all this bad luck.
And this is for an item that he's trying to sell.
And so this raises, I think, two really important questions.
One, if you don't believe the seller that he has a haunted doll, then why would you spend hundreds of dollars on a fake haunted doll?
But two, if you do believe the seller that he has a haunted doll, why would you spend hundreds of dollars on a legit haunted doll?
Well, I mean, I think that's definitely part of it.
We are having a moment in pop culture and we have seen these historically.
It's sort of it's a bit of a cycle.
There are times in history where ghosts are just absolutely popping.
