Wouldn't you love to wake up every morning in a room full of dolls? Creepy, porcelain ones with cracked skin, rosy cheeks and unblinking eyes? Wouldn't you love if those dolls started blinking and watching you sleep? This is an episode that will keep you up at night and instill terror in your nightmares. What happens when toys and dolls come alive? And not in the cute Toy Story way, but in the "I want to kill you and watch you sleep and eat your toes" kind of way... Haunted toys and dolls are arguably one of the most horrifying paranormal encounters. Is it a little ghost child playing with the firetruck? Or is it an evil entity possessing a Teletubbie that has no batteries? Would you want to take your chances to find out? This encounters is filled with paranormal tales from listeners who have experienced haunted dolls and toys and lived to tell the tale...
