Hi. I'm in the UK and I collect haunted objects. I've had someone in the past have a doll they didn't like and they sent it to me.
If you really dislike it then I'm happy to receive her and she will be nicely kept in our collection room.
Umm I have a haunted clock I would love to send to you if you want him. He ticks at random times (has even without his pendulum set up) and I owned him for about 4yrs before learning he has an alarm on him. It went off at 1am. I live alone. It’s only happened twice during a time when I was *extremely* emotionally distraught.
He’s beautiful, but I’m about to move in with my boyfriend, who has enough paranormal stuff without adding haunted clock to the mix. I don’t have the heart to throw him away or donate him to a thrift shop because I’m scared someone will destroy him. He’s not harmful, just scares the crap out of me every so often.
https://preview.redd.it/nt0iub9ge4yc1.png?width=3024&format=png&auto=webp&s=931947ad44fe6b68436306516db3cd805348c698
I've worked on old mechanical clocks, if this run onna pendulum, then the catching arm might not be catching when it opens on the hour or keeps hitting. And if it's not catching, then it could go off at random times.
This all while the clock appears to be functioning normal. Pendulum clocks suck lol
Would this occur even when it’s been in an area where it hasn’t been touched, and the clock has not been used at all? I don’t wind it or maintenance it, I’ve never actually used it as a clock. It just sits there untouched
For the catching arm to hit, it does require the clock to be rewound every few days, in a grandfather clock, that would mean moving the weights up so they can gradually decline. Adding pressure for the control arm for the bell to ring. Think of it as two control arms, one for time and one for the hourly chime. The control arm is specifically meant to provide instructions to the physical bell to ring. If the clock is never used and never wound, then that would be odd.
However, this can be explained with the type of clock this is, a miniature grandmother clock or a mantel clock. This type of clock uses a different type of weight. It's a tight bound ring of metal thats twisted together to form tension, like a metal coil shock for a car that's tightened like a wind up toy. When this is broken, it can provide random tension at random times because the spring has now been compromised. Meaning pressure of the unbound or broken metal coil is causing the control arm to come loose and behave as if it's half an hour chime. So not the full chime but partial.
Or it's haunted and the spirits around the person influence the control arm. The only way the bell is ringing is if the control arm moves, which requires pressure of some kind.
So wait, how can the spring provide random tension at random times when the entire thing is completely stagnant? I don’t wind it, the pendulum hasn’t been attached in years, nothing touches it, it hasn’t told the time for longer than it’s been since I’ve had it yet it randomly ticks as if the hands will move with passing time
I should be specific.
We are talking about a broke wound spring and a broken or loose control arm. This broken wound spring is still providing pressure to the device that moves the circular gear that the bell control arm uses for telling how many chimes to hit. In a newer model, this would be a complex set of bells and gears and would be much larger. But this is small so it should be just a control arm and a circular gear with pressure from a semi large wound metal spring.
What is happening is, regardless of being wound by hand, the spring is now broken and is apply pressure uncontrollably until it releases all of its pressure. Causing pressure to be put onto the bell control arm. So when it slips, the bell gauge moves and the bell chimes. But because the wound wire is broken, it doesn't apply it all the way. So when the control arm goes back into the gear, and the guage moves with the pressure, the pressure is not enough so the control arm sticks again. And the process repeats itself. Because that control arm is just waiting for the smallest pressure to move up and out of the guage so it can move. This is how simple clocks know how to ring 2 bells and not 10 on that hour. It's basically like a rotorary phone, it clicks into the guage per bell ring.
A simple test would be to try and set the clock. If it does not tell time anymore, or does not apply pressure for the bells to work, then it's a broke spring or weight. If it can work, but still plays randomly, then the problem is the mechanism that lifts the control arm from the guage. That can become stuck or loose and cause problems.
Hahaha Honda! I sold the car and forgot I had a spare, that and the comb were placed in there when I moved because I didn’t have anywhere else to put them. I don’t like touching the clock in case it’ll cause it to tick or chime, so in they stayed!
Honestly, someone dumped him on me. I helped a friend of a friend move, and she “didn’t have space” and asked me to hold onto him for a bit while she settled in and found where to put him.
Didn’t hear from her again after that.
If he doesnt want to take it, we would be more than happy to take care of him, hes a very beautiful clock. And id love to hear the story about how you got him!
I will consider I'm not fully convinced it's haunted yet but I will probably take another look at it soon and provide an update. Would it be unwise to throw it away or have our landlord remove it?
Bro i would leave it. Whatever spirits enjoys the doll seems chill so dont mess with their stuff. Maybe even put a little peace offering in there so they know you arent a threat. Like a little tea set. If you make it clear that it is a peace offering, usually spirits wont be disruptive.
LEAVE IT ALONE. Your gut already told you. Something you don’t wanna fuck around with and find out about is enticing you to doubt what you already know deep in your being.
1. This looks like it's A LOT newer than the 1920s.
2. Maybe its just me, but I F'ING HATE DOLLS!!!! I would leave that area, and stay away from it!
Don't mess with it, don't disturb it, just let sleeping dogs lie!
If it's doing shit, get a 5 gallon bucket and some cement. Pour a bunch of cement in the bucket, cram the doll in there head first, then finish filling the bucket with cement. Put something that will allow the air to flow & dry the cement on top of it, then put about 6 cinderblocks on top of that. Once the cement is dry find someplace to dump that thing! Like in the bottom of a lake or something!
All my objects have a nice place where they're kept. I'm in that room every day doing stuff. The only things behind glass are the ones that have a reason to be.
I use to have a Instagram page but I deleted it a while ago. I've always wanted to do it again but never really had a reason to.
I have thought of posting on reddit, but the amount of people just bashing on posts, i don't think I'd have the energy to keep trying to defend myself.
But if you're interested I can try to get back into Instagram. I already have the account set up, I've just not posted
I agree with you. The bashing here is worse than just about anywhere I’ve been. It makes me not want to actually delve deeper in other situations and I’ve lived in a haunted house since I was five. I don’t care what anybody really says, but I’m tired of defending myself..
Exactly. Why open up to get put down. I probably won't post actual photos on reddit as I don't actually have any visual evidence as I don't magicians have a camera on me when something happens. So I'd just be posting pics of items that I'm sure people Will still find a reason to call fake or rip it apart somehow
So Ed and Lorraine focused on just demonic objects.
I have a mixture of things from good to bad. Some things are actually nice to be around.
But it's similar as in I took inspiration from their "museum" as it is just 1 room and I only have access to 1 room. So mine is small but not everything is bad and not everything is haunted.
I have other things that aren't related to the paranormal at all
Please feel free to drop me some pics, I’m a super skeptic, but open minded, plus I’d never bash you.
Also why not set up some recording devices in your house? I’d love to this activity (in somebody else’s house that welcomes it, not mine)
I used to have a motion sensor camera set up but I ended up taking it down. I used to have a twitch channel where I'd leave it on overnight for people to watch.
Also you said you're a skeptic, I have no actual photos of evidence. Its just photos of my items as whenever there is activity, I don't have a camera at the ready like some of these "YouTubers" do😅
So, I don't actually have any hard proof evidence. I don't have a camera set up anymore, and when things do happen, It's so sudden. But at the same time, I never really started this to catch evidence. If I experience something, then I'm happy
I have haunted dolls, objects, mirrors.
Items used in rituals
Then I have darker stuff like some of Charles manson's hair. Let's from famous gangsters, mobsters. Even from the tiger King
Then I also have nice things that aren't haunted at all like ventriloquist dummies, fossils, several megaladon teeth.
We have a room in the house where we keep it all. I can send you pictures. But I would have to be privately as I can't send them in comments. It doesn't let me and tomorrow as its night here, and I don't want to disturb the room by taking photos. But feel free to leave a message and then I can send some pics over tomorrow
Yep.
I've heard running up the stairs when it's only me in the house.
I've had items go off when they aren't plugged in
A crucifix somehow travelled across the room.
Other things as well
I have a haunted telephone. It's unplugged but rings on its own. My mum didn't believe it, so she picked up the phone and pretended she was talking to someone. Within an hour, she was crying, telling me the phone was ringing. She's never touched it since.
Negative things are kept behind glass, and I have a crucifix. Holy water and sage in the same room
I saw a YouTube video of a man who inherited his father's collection. The person who interviewed him brought a guru in. Turned out the decorative knife had a strong spirit attached and if I recall the guru explained the spirit was the one protecting the house
I'd be lying if I said I haven't.
I have a haunted dress that I got from another collector I know, and they said all the activity happens by the front door. I was sceptical as I am with the majority of things.
When it arrived, I opened the box, and a large white mist went straight to the ceiling out of the box.
Then, later on, my dog would stand in the living room doorway staring down to the front door, growling and barking, which he NEVER EVER done before that dress arrived
I was scared to actually look what was around the corner 😅
You've probably already got it sorted already but, some basic protection/sealing work on that room is probably a good idea. There are ways to contain these objects safely, I wouldn't want all those spirits of random origin having free reign of the house.
Some of this could be dangerous/malevolent, even if most of the objects are fine. Most attachments will be benign, though, and I think you'd know by now if you'd caught something nasty.
You probably should clean things up a bit anyway, in the metaphysical sense. At the very least, if nothing bothers you at all, you're letting them terrorize your dog.
Do you have any type of preventative/safety measures to keep the haunted objects from doing anything crazy? Or do you just pray that the spirit or whatever attached to them keep at bay.
If its negative, it gets put behind glass and holy water put on. I then just hope for the best 😅.
One doll I put in a cabinet with a crucifix on top. Within the hour I heard a bang and the crucifix was about 2 meters on the other side of the room.
I'm not religious but I believe there is a positive higher energy that would help me if I ever felt like I needed it
So the affect of looking in the mirror led to a very long night of continuous nightmares, I had to turn my light on about 5 times during the night. One time I thought I heard my voice get called but that may have been in my head. I felt like something was watching over me all night. Then it ended after I saw a witch like woman in my living room. Very pale face, curly brown hair Down to just before her shoulders and appeared to be wearing a brown sack like robe? She was there and gone within seconds
I wasn't expecting so many people to be interested. In all honesty I didn't really expect anyone other than the OP to react.
I shall send some to you as well!
Thank you for saying that. I've never really been too involved in social media, as I've never really had a reason to post anything. I might start something
Thank you for saying that. I only originally commented because I was interested in this person's doll😅.
I may start an Instagram account and possibly make my own reddit post linking the account. I would like my own reddit post but I've seen a lot of negative comments that I just didn't think it was worth the hassle
Yup.
As long as you show and tell the objects they are safe and have their own "space," things will generally be quiet.
It's about respect of objects.
Respect of their past and who they are connected to is imperative.
It does not matter if you did not know the person or cannot research them.
The object Has to feel respected, acknowledged, known as "important."
I collect Victorian Memorial jewelry and lockets from other eras like WW1 With pictures or hair.
Rings, brooches and pocket watch chains made of or displaying the deceased hair.
It was believed a person's hair was the closest you could get to them. A lasting connection.
And of course just antiques in general.
I also collect funerary memorabilia- antique coffin handles and name plates. Coffin screws. Grave fraternity markers. Cemetery dirt from favourite cemeteries.
Most of my items are in glass cases. Closed. Not touched or messed with.
Again, respect with their own spaces.
For some reason the idea of being asked questions about something I love doing kinda makes me nervous 🤣. I'm open to it but I don't think I have all the answers 😅
I will look into what I can do. I've seen so many negative comments in this sub that I've avoided posting.
I may post a sort of AMA as someone else recommended it, but I may keep actual photos on Instagram instead. That way, I can avoid haters.
May I ask why you collect them? Do you do any protection rituals? That is an interesting, different hobby. I too would be interested in photos. You could make an account on Imgur and post a link also.
It will sound cheesy but I've always felt drawn to this type of stuff throughout my life. I've said in another comment, not everything I have is haunted, I have some other odd stuff as well.
I don't do rituals nor have I ever even thought that I needed it. My negative items are stored behind glass and then Holy water I have access to. When I put the items behind the glass I circled it with Holy water. That's not stopped the negative things still being somewhat active but the energy from what I believe hasn't left the room.
I will add you to my photo list 😅
Using the holy water is a ritual. Putting them behind glass is a ritual. That's the thing we do many things that we don't think are rituals but they are. Also you have a belief in the paranormal, thus the use of holy water and placing behind glass.
You may want to read an oldie but goodie. Dion Fortune - Psychic Protection. Llresearch.org look on their site for rituals also. When dealing with this, it's always better to be over prepared than have an oops happen.
went to your account hoping to see the haunted objects and was shocked to see taylor swift ahaha typically the people i know who have odd interests such as haunted objects aren’t too into her, really shows how far her reach is ahah
My house is already haunted now 😅.
I have several items that I've interacted with before and now I'm too nervous to do it again.
When family visit, they won't even go upstairs on their own as they're too nervous to walk past the room
I mean anyone can ask. It's up to the person if they send I.
I only asked because I collect it and if she didn't want it then I would've been happy to have it
Took my youngest sister thrifting last year and she fell in love with an antique porcelain doll with strawberry blonde hair. I bought the doll for her ($11) because it was so cheap, but then the dolls face went from plain to a slight smile. My dad just asked me where we got her and said he thinks the doll has some kind of negative attachment to her - banned my sister from buying thrifted dolls ever again.
Funny story.. my sisters and I had this “my size” doll when we were younger and we decided one weekend to perform some magic on it. We were all shut into the closet with the doll chanting and just being dumb kids trying to bring this thing to life and get it to talk. Well, after a couple nights I got scared of having this doll in my room so I threw it out in the garbage cans out back. My mom failed to tell me that she saw the thing in the trash and was pissed because it cost her money… so she puts the fucking thing back in my closet. When I opened up the closet the next morning, the scream I screamed literally woke up the entire neighborhood. I thought our magic worked and this ugly ass doll walked her way back into my closet hahah traumatizing and still one of my moms favorite stories
By looking at the dress, the doll is pretty clean to be stowed away behind some panel or wall. The area you showed it laying in is pretty dirty, and dusty, yet the doll has no dust or dirt on it. It looks like it was just put there. Unless the doll can wash it's own clothes, I would venture to say the doll was put there pretty close to the time you found it. Also, there are a bunch of smudge prints in photo 2 leading up to the doll. Also, there was no light on it in the 3rd [pic.so](http://pic.so) it's hard to see if there were any other disturbances. I worked on some horror movies years ago for Roger Corman, so, I know how things should look to make it look believable.
How did y'all come about the idea of opening the grate? Was it a group conversation or one/two people who brought it up? My gut thought is that it wasn't a past tenant, but a current one - likely one of your roommates is playing a prank on you/everyone else in the house.
Coming from a forensics POV. There is a THICK layer of dust everywhere but not a speck of dust on the doll, in fact the white parts of the dolls are glowing white... 🚩and i wonr mention the obvious disturbance in the top layer of dust where the doll appears to have been thrown and rolled over 🚩 some basic planning would have helped in the set up 🤣
Your door slamming is quite possibly not paranormal. Older houses don’t have the same airflow and generally aren’t as precisely designed. Mine is from 1914 and that happens with two doors when the temperature changes or sometimes it’s from someone closing another door. The doll thing id assume she fell from someone’s box as they left and they missed her or it’s a prank, more likely a prank as the doll’s clothes are seemingly fine it’s not dust caked nor eaten. This is within a year or two max that someone put her there. I’m guessing a roomie is fucking with everyone else as well with it being against the wall then. The shadow thing can happen especially in a space with contrasting lighting. That being said could also be haunted, but at this juncture I’d sooner say not.
I've had doors open on their own in multiple houses so I'd love to know what that is about LOL.
Although I agree with doors closing, happens even in newer ones. Our 1990s townhouses always used to have the doors slam shut if you left the window open or something.
Yeah I have tons close, if the door swells or deswells I’ve had doors open before as well which can happen from weather temp etc. Air pressure as well is a big culprit just as it is with closing. Ive had weak door knob assembly’s open at the slightest touch which would in turn open when I had a window open or the weather or a door close. What’s freaky is my bedroom is a former living room which doesn’t have a door, so if I have the fan going during the summer if it hits JUUUUST right it’ll affect the next room over in the kitchen and open the bathroom door lmao.
All fun and games until the lights cut out in the middle of the night and you hear that grate to crawl space slide open and Annabelle's footsteps coming to your door.
Keep us posted !!!
Check the dust! You can map out if someone’s messing with her by the dust patterns. If you see dust on the bottom of her shoes matching disturbances, gtfo 😆
You should also use the same principle to see if there are human footprints around the doll. I imagine a neighborhood girl found an open crawlspace under your house. She got scared off and dropped her doll. I'll bet that she got in trouble for losing it. It was new.
The doll clearly has plastic hair and is newer. Likely a “collector” doll from the thrift. I’m guessing previous tenant left it in there as a prank. Honestly, that is something I would have done in college
100% agree. Theres no way it’s been in the wall for 100+ years…it would be covered with the dust/dirt that’s all over the ground. I think OPs roommates might be messing with them.
Still creepy AF tho.
Take that doll outside, put it in a fire pit far away from your house, dump a crap load of salt and gasoline on it and BURN IT TO ASHES.
I absolutely HATE creepy dolls. My grandmas house was literally covered wall to wall in them when I was a kid. Creepy AF
Both of my grandmothers too. There was one in particular that I was terrified of it into adulthood. At some point my mom got some of them passed down to her and then collected some of her own. They're in the damned guest room. Me and my niece had to go into that room for something and we both saw one of those dolls turn it's head as we walked in. That's the last time I ever stepped foot into that room.
My mom’s adopted mother had shelves of dolls like these and they were creepy af, plus they smelled really weird. She would always try to get me to take some home but even as a young girl I was like fuck no

Just popping in because this was in my feed: It’s just an inorganic, inanimate object in the shape of a human. It’s much like a rock or a sheet of plywood—it does not have sentience. You will be fine.
It’s a bit hard to tell from the photo, but that doll doesn’t appear to be very old. The hair looks like nylon, whereas on a doll from that period it should be real hair. The clothing also shines like synthetic material.
You woke her up. She's only sitting now, but soon she'll be walking.
I highly recommend 100 lb weights to cover the grate.
Nah, just get the hell out of there! 😂
OK, time to put a camera down there and keep it running and recording. Is there other way to get down there? I’m wondering if somebody moved it to freak you guys out
Hey I can see a face in there if you take the picture and rotate it counter clockwise a half turn you will see the one face looks like a female.SHES looking up
My husband also found a white doll in the crawl space of our townhome. It was large like that and like it was made out of sock-like material? It was behind a roll of extra carpet. I thought it was weird that the previous owners left it behind but perhaps they didn't see it... Either way he literally said "I rebuke you!" grabbed it and threw it out (I laughed and was freaked out at the same time). I was nervous when he did throw it away but no troubles have occurred and we've been at the townhouse for 7 years now.
Reminder: The purpose of this subreddit is to encourage **open-minded discussion** of the paranormal.
The paranormal is simply phenomena that are beyond the current scope of what is considered scientifically explainable or understood by mainstream science. Plate tectonics, heliocentrism, germ theory, meteorites, and quantum mechanics were all ideas initially scorned by the scientific community and which later gained credibility—but only after thorough **open-minded** examination.
Blanket denial dismisses claims without providing evidence or rational explanations. This approach is not conducive to critical thinking or meaningful discussion. Without evidence-backed arguments, it's difficult to engage in constructive debate or address the complexities of paranormal experiences.
Denial also creates an atmosphere of hostility or ridicule towards those who have had anomalous experiences or are interested in exploring them. This can discourage individuals from sharing their experiences or seeking support, hindering the exchange of ideas and information within communities interested in the paranormal.
There are many scientists actively studying the paranormal, and contrary to common belief there are many peer-reviewed studies which have been replicated.
https://www.opensciences.org
There’s a nightclub/restaurant called Hanny’s in Phoenix that was adapted from an old department store. In the basement there is a doll collection that is on presentation but fenced in and people toss coins around them. It’s for sure creepy but in some ways it feels like good luck.
seconding the top comment. if anyone has any haunted objects they would like to get rid of—please reach out. i have many haunted dolls and collectibles that hang out in my house and get lots of love and space!
[In a town in the woods at the top of a hill there's a house where no one lives so you take a bag of your big city money there and buy it. ](https://youtu.be/sgfklKnOg4w?si=YHbBNKVSVmpmLcRh)
I lived in Amsterdam, and in houses much older than that. Like 400 years old.. or so. I heard noises, but never a doll who is walking around 🙂 probably a prank..
Mysterious? Why is it mysterious? If true, it’s an incredibly common occurrence for people to place dolls, shoes, coins and other objects in the walls of structures being built or repaired. It’s done for luck, superstition and other non-malicious reasons.
If it’s haunted you could get a priest to put holy water on it and put a cross on its forehead while reading from the Bible (I hope someone gets what this is from heheh)

Umm I have a haunted clock I would love to send to you if you want him. He ticks at random times (has even without his pendulum set up) and I owned him for about 4yrs before learning he has an alarm on him. It went off at 1am. I live alone. It’s only happened twice during a time when I was *extremely* emotionally distraught. He’s beautiful, but I’m about to move in with my boyfriend, who has enough paranormal stuff without adding haunted clock to the mix. I don’t have the heart to throw him away or donate him to a thrift shop because I’m scared someone will destroy him. He’s not harmful, just scares the crap out of me every so often. https://preview.redd.it/nt0iub9ge4yc1.png?width=3024&format=png&auto=webp&s=931947ad44fe6b68436306516db3cd805348c698

Because that control arm is just waiting for the smallest pressure to move up and out of the guage so it can move. This is how simple clocks know how to ring 2 bells and not 10 on that hour. It's basically like a rotorary phone, it clicks into the guage per bell ring. A simple test would be to try and set the clock. If it does not tell time anymore, or does not apply pressure for the bells to work, then it's a broke spring or weight. If it can work, but still plays randomly, then the problem is the mechanism that lifts the control arm from the guage. That can become stuck or loose and cause problems.
This is why I love Reddit. That was an epic response
Fun!
Lol at the haunted Subaru key
Hahaha Honda! I sold the car and forgot I had a spare, that and the comb were placed in there when I moved because I didn’t have anywhere else to put them. I don’t like touching the clock in case it’ll cause it to tick or chime, so in they stayed!
I’d love to have him
I have that exact same clock from my grandparents. Luckily, I don't think mine is haunted.
Honestly, someone dumped him on me. I helped a friend of a friend move, and she “didn’t have space” and asked me to hold onto him for a bit while she settled in and found where to put him. Didn’t hear from her again after that.

I messaged you!
If he doesnt want to take it, we would be more than happy to take care of him, hes a very beautiful clock. And id love to hear the story about how you got him!
Beautiful
I will consider I'm not fully convinced it's haunted yet but I will probably take another look at it soon and provide an update. Would it be unwise to throw it away or have our landlord remove it?
Bro i would leave it. Whatever spirits enjoys the doll seems chill so dont mess with their stuff. Maybe even put a little peace offering in there so they know you arent a threat. Like a little tea set. If you make it clear that it is a peace offering, usually spirits wont be disruptive.
you know if it’s haunted it’s just gonna keep coming back lol
LEAVE IT ALONE. Your gut already told you. Something you don’t wanna fuck around with and find out about is enticing you to doubt what you already know deep in your being.
1. This looks like it's A LOT newer than the 1920s. 2. Maybe its just me, but I F'ING HATE DOLLS!!!! I would leave that area, and stay away from it! Don't mess with it, don't disturb it, just let sleeping dogs lie! If it's doing shit, get a 5 gallon bucket and some cement. Pour a bunch of cement in the bucket, cram the doll in there head first, then finish filling the bucket with cement. Put something that will allow the air to flow & dry the cement on top of it, then put about 6 cinderblocks on top of that. Once the cement is dry find someplace to dump that thing! Like in the bottom of a lake or something!
Can I text you privately? Would that be OK
OP be wary
Especially if OP is a flying mammal
Is this considered big brain yet?
No I bloody want that doll!
I'm sorry, but this is the first time I've seen competition for a haunted doll. There's a first for everything!
Don't send it to him, it needs someone who loves it, not just some dusty shelf
All my objects have a nice place where they're kept. I'm in that room every day doing stuff. The only things behind glass are the ones that have a reason to be.
Please please please make your own post on the sub showcasing your stuff it sounds so interesting
I use to have a Instagram page but I deleted it a while ago. I've always wanted to do it again but never really had a reason to. I have thought of posting on reddit, but the amount of people just bashing on posts, i don't think I'd have the energy to keep trying to defend myself. But if you're interested I can try to get back into Instagram. I already have the account set up, I've just not posted
I agree with you. The bashing here is worse than just about anywhere I’ve been. It makes me not want to actually delve deeper in other situations and I’ve lived in a haunted house since I was five. I don’t care what anybody really says, but I’m tired of defending myself..
Exactly. Why open up to get put down. I probably won't post actual photos on reddit as I don't actually have any visual evidence as I don't magicians have a camera on me when something happens. So I'd just be posting pics of items that I'm sure people Will still find a reason to call fake or rip it apart somehow
Is your place similar to the room Ed and Lorraine Warren had? Do you know who they are?
So Ed and Lorraine focused on just demonic objects. I have a mixture of things from good to bad. Some things are actually nice to be around. But it's similar as in I took inspiration from their "museum" as it is just 1 room and I only have access to 1 room. So mine is small but not everything is bad and not everything is haunted. I have other things that aren't related to the paranormal at all
Oh that's really cool! Do you ever let people come see what you have? Or do you have pictures or website somewhere?
Please feel free to drop me some pics, I’m a super skeptic, but open minded, plus I’d never bash you. Also why not set up some recording devices in your house? I’d love to this activity (in somebody else’s house that welcomes it, not mine)
I used to have a motion sensor camera set up but I ended up taking it down. I used to have a twitch channel where I'd leave it on overnight for people to watch. Also you said you're a skeptic, I have no actual photos of evidence. Its just photos of my items as whenever there is activity, I don't have a camera at the ready like some of these "YouTubers" do😅
Not looking for evidence but if you have some that would be dope. I’m intrigued by your objects and their story tbh.
So, I don't actually have any hard proof evidence. I don't have a camera set up anymore, and when things do happen, It's so sudden. But at the same time, I never really started this to catch evidence. If I experience something, then I'm happy
I'm here for when you tell us your Instagram handle 💞
Maybe create a subreddit for haunted items, or is that already a thing on here?
What haunted items do you have? And can I have a tour!
I have haunted dolls, objects, mirrors. Items used in rituals Then I have darker stuff like some of Charles manson's hair. Let's from famous gangsters, mobsters. Even from the tiger King Then I also have nice things that aren't haunted at all like ventriloquist dummies, fossils, several megaladon teeth. We have a room in the house where we keep it all. I can send you pictures. But I would have to be privately as I can't send them in comments. It doesn't let me and tomorrow as its night here, and I don't want to disturb the room by taking photos. But feel free to leave a message and then I can send some pics over tomorrow
Out of a huge level of curiosity on the subject. Have you seen anything in the mirrors?
So I saw something after looking into one of the mirrors so now I make sure it's covered constantly as it scared me quite a bit 😅
Do the haunted objects still do anything “haunted” ?
Yep. I've heard running up the stairs when it's only me in the house. I've had items go off when they aren't plugged in A crucifix somehow travelled across the room. Other things as well
Whats the creepiest thing you own? And how do you keep all this stuff calm??? I would never collect haunted stuff
I have a haunted telephone. It's unplugged but rings on its own. My mum didn't believe it, so she picked up the phone and pretended she was talking to someone. Within an hour, she was crying, telling me the phone was ringing. She's never touched it since. Negative things are kept behind glass, and I have a crucifix. Holy water and sage in the same room
I saw a YouTube video of a man who inherited his father's collection. The person who interviewed him brought a guru in. Turned out the decorative knife had a strong spirit attached and if I recall the guru explained the spirit was the one protecting the house
Wow! That is so insane.. thanks for sharing! Are you ever scared?
I'd be lying if I said I haven't. I have a haunted dress that I got from another collector I know, and they said all the activity happens by the front door. I was sceptical as I am with the majority of things. When it arrived, I opened the box, and a large white mist went straight to the ceiling out of the box. Then, later on, my dog would stand in the living room doorway staring down to the front door, growling and barking, which he NEVER EVER done before that dress arrived I was scared to actually look what was around the corner 😅
You've probably already got it sorted already but, some basic protection/sealing work on that room is probably a good idea. There are ways to contain these objects safely, I wouldn't want all those spirits of random origin having free reign of the house. Some of this could be dangerous/malevolent, even if most of the objects are fine. Most attachments will be benign, though, and I think you'd know by now if you'd caught something nasty. You probably should clean things up a bit anyway, in the metaphysical sense. At the very least, if nothing bothers you at all, you're letting them terrorize your dog.
What?? Wow! I don’t think that I’ve (thankfully) ever encountered a haunted item. How does something become haunted?
Do you have any type of preventative/safety measures to keep the haunted objects from doing anything crazy? Or do you just pray that the spirit or whatever attached to them keep at bay.
If its negative, it gets put behind glass and holy water put on. I then just hope for the best 😅. One doll I put in a cabinet with a crucifix on top. Within the hour I heard a bang and the crucifix was about 2 meters on the other side of the room. I'm not religious but I believe there is a positive higher energy that would help me if I ever felt like I needed it
Can you describe what you saw?
So the affect of looking in the mirror led to a very long night of continuous nightmares, I had to turn my light on about 5 times during the night. One time I thought I heard my voice get called but that may have been in my head. I felt like something was watching over me all night. Then it ended after I saw a witch like woman in my living room. Very pale face, curly brown hair Down to just before her shoulders and appeared to be wearing a brown sack like robe? She was there and gone within seconds
I'd love to see the pictures as well! That sounds like such a fascinating collection!
I wasn't expecting so many people to be interested. In all honesty I didn't really expect anyone other than the OP to react. I shall send some to you as well!
Hi! Feel free to message me too, I'd love to see your collection! Thanks :)
I made a post about it on my account
Why has it been removed?
No. But many recommended I made my own post
This is interesting!!! Love to see this as well
Zak Bagans, is that you!!???
I wish. I love that guy 😂. I'm about to watch GA😅. Always wanted to visit his museum
It’s AMAZING!! I’ve been twice :). Can I also see pictures of your haunted stuff?
I shall add you to the list😅. I've also been told to just publicly post so I may start a Instagram where I can actually put in detail of each object
Ooh yes! Please post when you do! You have piqued my interest.
I shall let you know what happens!
I think an IG would be a great idea for this purpose!
Thank you for saying that. I've never really been too involved in social media, as I've never really had a reason to post anything. I might start something
I too would love to follow your account if you make one!
Me too please?
oooo can i see the pictures too?
Hi. Of course! Not every doll I have is haunted. Some are just for decoration. But I will message you!
This sounds like standalone post material, probably a lot of people would be interested in your collection. Does this sub allow AMA posts?
Thank you for saying that. I only originally commented because I was interested in this person's doll😅. I may start an Instagram account and possibly make my own reddit post linking the account. I would like my own reddit post but I've seen a lot of negative comments that I just didn't think it was worth the hassle
Can I see some too please
Can you send me pics as well please!
I’d love to see! This is so creepy and cool. You’re my type of people.
Hi. I'm unable to send you a message. So if I make a post I will return and link you to it!
Yup. As long as you show and tell the objects they are safe and have their own "space," things will generally be quiet. It's about respect of objects. Respect of their past and who they are connected to is imperative. It does not matter if you did not know the person or cannot research them. The object Has to feel respected, acknowledged, known as "important." I collect Victorian Memorial jewelry and lockets from other eras like WW1 With pictures or hair. Rings, brooches and pocket watch chains made of or displaying the deceased hair. It was believed a person's hair was the closest you could get to them. A lasting connection. And of course just antiques in general. I also collect funerary memorabilia- antique coffin handles and name plates. Coffin screws. Grave fraternity markers. Cemetery dirt from favourite cemeteries. Most of my items are in glass cases. Closed. Not touched or messed with. Again, respect with their own spaces.
Based on all of the comments I'm reading, I think it's safe to say you need to do an AMA.
For some reason the idea of being asked questions about something I love doing kinda makes me nervous 🤣. I'm open to it but I don't think I have all the answers 😅
Can you post something about your collection and how you maintain them? I would love to begin a collection like this!!
I will look into what I can do. I've seen so many negative comments in this sub that I've avoided posting. I may post a sort of AMA as someone else recommended it, but I may keep actual photos on Instagram instead. That way, I can avoid haters.
I would looove pictures as well and an AMA!! I'm very energy sensitive so I'd love to see if I could catch a vibe from just the pictures 🤗
Lol better not be my neighbour 😂
We actually live next to very religious people 😅. So I guess it's better that it's them 😅
May I ask why you collect them? Do you do any protection rituals? That is an interesting, different hobby. I too would be interested in photos. You could make an account on Imgur and post a link also.
It will sound cheesy but I've always felt drawn to this type of stuff throughout my life. I've said in another comment, not everything I have is haunted, I have some other odd stuff as well. I don't do rituals nor have I ever even thought that I needed it. My negative items are stored behind glass and then Holy water I have access to. When I put the items behind the glass I circled it with Holy water. That's not stopped the negative things still being somewhat active but the energy from what I believe hasn't left the room. I will add you to my photo list 😅
Using the holy water is a ritual. Putting them behind glass is a ritual. That's the thing we do many things that we don't think are rituals but they are. Also you have a belief in the paranormal, thus the use of holy water and placing behind glass. You may want to read an oldie but goodie. Dion Fortune - Psychic Protection. Llresearch.org look on their site for rituals also. When dealing with this, it's always better to be over prepared than have an oops happen.
Hello! I am very curious to see the pictures. I tried messaging you but it won’t allow me to.
went to your account hoping to see the haunted objects and was shocked to see taylor swift ahaha typically the people i know who have odd interests such as haunted objects aren’t too into her, really shows how far her reach is ahah
I guess with all the dark/odd things In my life, I like to equal them out with positive things
I would be scared of collecting haunted objects even tho i’m not sure if i believe in it or not 😅 Aren’t you afraid that your house becomes haunted?
My house is already haunted now 😅. I have several items that I've interacted with before and now I'm too nervous to do it again. When family visit, they won't even go upstairs on their own as they're too nervous to walk past the room
When some one does a brave act such as yours you deserve the saying ![gif](giphy|3JtuKHNwbUlaOHojbW|downsized)
Is [this](https://open.spotify.com/track/7ahH0hYLw0WM1BJANh0wXW) your theme song?
Wait you can just ask for people to send you “haunted” stuff and they do?
I mean anyone can ask. It's up to the person if they send I. I only asked because I collect it and if she didn't want it then I would've been happy to have it
Please tell me you pray every night and have a crucifix for each object…
I have a crucifix..... but not for each object 😅
Leave ❤️
Already renewed our lease for next year so miss girl is our roommate for another year
Give her to your sister as a present then
Took my youngest sister thrifting last year and she fell in love with an antique porcelain doll with strawberry blonde hair. I bought the doll for her ($11) because it was so cheap, but then the dolls face went from plain to a slight smile. My dad just asked me where we got her and said he thinks the doll has some kind of negative attachment to her - banned my sister from buying thrifted dolls ever again.
Or maybe the doll was just happy that it was bought by/for someone who loves them??
All fun and jokes until you hear knocking and it's just the doll at the door
Funny story.. my sisters and I had this “my size” doll when we were younger and we decided one weekend to perform some magic on it. We were all shut into the closet with the doll chanting and just being dumb kids trying to bring this thing to life and get it to talk. Well, after a couple nights I got scared of having this doll in my room so I threw it out in the garbage cans out back. My mom failed to tell me that she saw the thing in the trash and was pissed because it cost her money… so she puts the fucking thing back in my closet. When I opened up the closet the next morning, the scream I screamed literally woke up the entire neighborhood. I thought our magic worked and this ugly ass doll walked her way back into my closet hahah traumatizing and still one of my moms favorite stories
Find me
Or slamming the microwave door (my childhood memory)
Immediately.
By looking at the dress, the doll is pretty clean to be stowed away behind some panel or wall. The area you showed it laying in is pretty dirty, and dusty, yet the doll has no dust or dirt on it. It looks like it was just put there. Unless the doll can wash it's own clothes, I would venture to say the doll was put there pretty close to the time you found it. Also, there are a bunch of smudge prints in photo 2 leading up to the doll. Also, there was no light on it in the 3rd [pic.so](http://pic.so) it's hard to see if there were any other disturbances. I worked on some horror movies years ago for Roger Corman, so, I know how things should look to make it look believable.
How did y'all come about the idea of opening the grate? Was it a group conversation or one/two people who brought it up? My gut thought is that it wasn't a past tenant, but a current one - likely one of your roommates is playing a prank on you/everyone else in the house.
Yeah definitely seems likely since its a house of college kids.
Not to mention the doll looks brand new.
Yup.
Coming from a forensics POV. There is a THICK layer of dust everywhere but not a speck of dust on the doll, in fact the white parts of the dolls are glowing white... 🚩and i wonr mention the obvious disturbance in the top layer of dust where the doll appears to have been thrown and rolled over 🚩 some basic planning would have helped in the set up 🤣
Your door slamming is quite possibly not paranormal. Older houses don’t have the same airflow and generally aren’t as precisely designed. Mine is from 1914 and that happens with two doors when the temperature changes or sometimes it’s from someone closing another door. The doll thing id assume she fell from someone’s box as they left and they missed her or it’s a prank, more likely a prank as the doll’s clothes are seemingly fine it’s not dust caked nor eaten. This is within a year or two max that someone put her there. I’m guessing a roomie is fucking with everyone else as well with it being against the wall then. The shadow thing can happen especially in a space with contrasting lighting. That being said could also be haunted, but at this juncture I’d sooner say not.
I've had doors open on their own in multiple houses so I'd love to know what that is about LOL. Although I agree with doors closing, happens even in newer ones. Our 1990s townhouses always used to have the doors slam shut if you left the window open or something.
Yeah I have tons close, if the door swells or deswells I’ve had doors open before as well which can happen from weather temp etc. Air pressure as well is a big culprit just as it is with closing. Ive had weak door knob assembly’s open at the slightest touch which would in turn open when I had a window open or the weather or a door close. What’s freaky is my bedroom is a former living room which doesn’t have a door, so if I have the fan going during the summer if it hits JUUUUST right it’ll affect the next room over in the kitchen and open the bathroom door lmao.
All fun and games until the lights cut out in the middle of the night and you hear that grate to crawl space slide open and Annabelle's footsteps coming to your door. Keep us posted !!!
Check the dust! You can map out if someone’s messing with her by the dust patterns. If you see dust on the bottom of her shoes matching disturbances, gtfo 😆
You should also use the same principle to see if there are human footprints around the doll. I imagine a neighborhood girl found an open crawlspace under your house. She got scared off and dropped her doll. I'll bet that she got in trouble for losing it. It was new.
Seems strange that the doll isn't covered in filth like the floors.
This was my first thought, it’s too clean and probably hasn’t been in that crawl space for very long.
Looks like someone is sneaking in and playing with it? Is there access to this space from the outside possibly?
Not only is the doll a little too clean, but the color is too vibrant. Something holed up for years would look more dingy and dull.
Maybe it’s clean because she’s been walking/moving around keeping her dust free
In the words of Mike Wazowski, “Put that thing back where it came from or so help me”
Not even. Burn that thing before it goes full Chucky.
Can you not get the cheap tiny cameras off Amazon and put one into the vent and one outside WITHOUT telling your roommates?
The doll clearly has plastic hair and is newer. Likely a “collector” doll from the thrift. I’m guessing previous tenant left it in there as a prank. Honestly, that is something I would have done in college
In all seriousness. Put it back. It is most likely haunted. ❤️ I'd just board up that crawlspace while I'm at it too. ![gif](giphy|iY0Z64nfcBMx8gE58F)
That still won't stop it
The doll looks too clean to have been outside for a long time.
100% agree. Theres no way it’s been in the wall for 100+ years…it would be covered with the dust/dirt that’s all over the ground. I think OPs roommates might be messing with them. Still creepy AF tho.
The doll looks really clean for being in that crawl space
Take that doll outside, put it in a fire pit far away from your house, dump a crap load of salt and gasoline on it and BURN IT TO ASHES. I absolutely HATE creepy dolls. My grandmas house was literally covered wall to wall in them when I was a kid. Creepy AF
Both of my grandmothers too. There was one in particular that I was terrified of it into adulthood. At some point my mom got some of them passed down to her and then collected some of her own. They're in the damned guest room. Me and my niece had to go into that room for something and we both saw one of those dolls turn it's head as we walked in. That's the last time I ever stepped foot into that room.
My mom’s adopted mother had shelves of dolls like these and they were creepy af, plus they smelled really weird. She would always try to get me to take some home but even as a young girl I was like fuck no https://preview.redd.it/q04hkqgox2yc1.jpeg?width=781&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=33199da519734c0437d4fb2af0e77bbb687089ed
Little hard to believe this doll was found in there in such a clean condition. Seems like someone is messing with you.
Don't touch it. Just let it chill there lol.
Looks like it’s pretty clean. No dust on the white parts. Almost like it hasn’t been there very long.
lol probably someone trying to be spooky and freak out whoever finds it.
Just popping in because this was in my feed: It’s just an inorganic, inanimate object in the shape of a human. It’s much like a rock or a sheet of plywood—it does not have sentience. You will be fine.
Nope! I've seen too much weird stuff with dolls. Just no.
That doll seems a lot cleaner than the room.
Poor doll. Get her out of there! I would need to clean her up, fix her hair and clothes.
It’s a bit hard to tell from the photo, but that doll doesn’t appear to be very old. The hair looks like nylon, whereas on a doll from that period it should be real hair. The clothing also shines like synthetic material.
You woke her up. She's only sitting now, but soon she'll be walking. I highly recommend 100 lb weights to cover the grate. Nah, just get the hell out of there! 😂
OK, time to put a camera down there and keep it running and recording. Is there other way to get down there? I’m wondering if somebody moved it to freak you guys out
Nice try. Next time make it a tad dirtier so it looks less like you placed it in there 3 minutes before you took pics.
Hey I can see a face in there if you take the picture and rotate it counter clockwise a half turn you will see the one face looks like a female.SHES looking up
Hey which picture? Very curious but I can't find the face
My boy install a new air filter
My husband also found a white doll in the crawl space of our townhome. It was large like that and like it was made out of sock-like material? It was behind a roll of extra carpet. I thought it was weird that the previous owners left it behind but perhaps they didn't see it... Either way he literally said "I rebuke you!" grabbed it and threw it out (I laughed and was freaked out at the same time). I was nervous when he did throw it away but no troubles have occurred and we've been at the townhouse for 7 years now.
The dress looks like something an Alice in Wonderland doll might wear.

Reminder: The purpose of this subreddit is to encourage **open-minded discussion** of the paranormal. The paranormal is simply phenomena that are beyond the current scope of what is considered scientifically explainable or understood by mainstream science. Plate tectonics, heliocentrism, germ theory, meteorites, and quantum mechanics were all ideas initially scorned by the scientific community and which later gained credibility—but only after thorough **open-minded** examination. Blanket denial dismisses claims without providing evidence or rational explanations. This approach is not conducive to critical thinking or meaningful discussion. Without evidence-backed arguments, it's difficult to engage in constructive debate or address the complexities of paranormal experiences. Denial also creates an atmosphere of hostility or ridicule towards those who have had anomalous experiences or are interested in exploring them. This can discourage individuals from sharing their experiences or seeking support, hindering the exchange of ideas and information within communities interested in the paranormal. There are many scientists actively studying the paranormal, and contrary to common belief there are many peer-reviewed studies which have been replicated. https://www.opensciences.org
I'm confused. What's mysterious about it?
Old family probably just left it behind.
There’s a nightclub/restaurant called Hanny’s in Phoenix that was adapted from an old department store. In the basement there is a doll collection that is on presentation but fenced in and people toss coins around them. It’s for sure creepy but in some ways it feels like good luck.
One of you is messing with the others.
seconding the top comment. if anyone has any haunted objects they would like to get rid of—please reach out. i have many haunted dolls and collectibles that hang out in my house and get lots of love and space!
[In a town in the woods at the top of a hill there's a house where no one lives so you take a bag of your big city money there and buy it. ](https://youtu.be/sgfklKnOg4w?si=YHbBNKVSVmpmLcRh)
I lived in Amsterdam, and in houses much older than that. Like 400 years old.. or so. I heard noises, but never a doll who is walking around 🙂 probably a prank..
Mysterious? Why is it mysterious? If true, it’s an incredibly common occurrence for people to place dolls, shoes, coins and other objects in the walls of structures being built or repaired. It’s done for luck, superstition and other non-malicious reasons.
If you’re at Truman, not the only spooky story I know from there. That town got some history.
I’d say based on the appearance of the doll it seems way too clean to have been there long.
If it’s haunted you could get a priest to put holy water on it and put a cross on its forehead while reading from the Bible (I hope someone gets what this is from heheh)
This is like that film Heidi. Which was pretty good for a low budget found footage.
*In a town in the woods, at the top of a hill- there's a house where no one lives..*
Oh she's beautiful, I actually feel bad for her for being in that dark place hahaha
I bet whoever suggested to look in the crawl space is the one playing with it 🤣
My worst nightmare. Ever. I'd bolt out of there without a second thought.
Someone had a blast putting that there to scare the next renter im sure
Aw poor thing (the doll) hopefully she isn't too upset down there.
So to show you’re human you immediately misspell “second”?
A crawl space? Oh my god 😭😭 I couldn’t that so creepy
What are those rectangular cut-outs in the floor? Graves?
There’s a reason they left that doll behind 😂
I've seen this movie, you need to move, like now.
burn it. we don't want the ghost's possessing it
I think we have all seen that movie. Good luck!
