Amelia thought she was just adding a unique piece to her collection, but little did she know she was inviting a curse into her home! This episode explores the story of Amelia, an antique collector who scoffs at the rumors surrounding a creepy doll known as "The Doll of Delphi." She buys the doll, thinking it's all a bunch of hooey to jack up the price. But things take a dark turn when the doll's eyes seem to follow her, and she starts having disturbing dreams filled with whispers of names and dates. Amelia brushes it off as coincidenceβ€”at first.

Then things escalate quickly. People start dying around her, and each death aligns perfectly with the whispers in her dreams! Her once beloved collection of antiques becomes a source of dread as she feels their eyes watching her, judging her. Amelia tries to get rid of the doll, but every attempt backfires. Buyers meet with terrible accidents, and smashing it only brings on a week of terrifying nightmares. The worst part? The doll reappears on her pillow, completely intact.

Desperate and haunted by visions of death, Amelia makes a horrifying decision. In an attempt to silence the whispers and break free from the curse, she takes drastic measures. In a scene that will leave you gasping, she gouges out the doll's eyes! The whispers stop, but are replaced by something far more sinister. She becomes the new vessel for the Oracle, burdened with the ability to see the threads of fate and the inevitability of death. The collector becomes the collected, trapped in an endless cycle of prophecy.

Don't miss this chilling tale of obsession, curses, and the terrifying price of forbidden knowledge. Tune in to find out what happens when you mess with forces beyond our understanding.
