Paige's week! Sorry in advance about the audio, we had some technical difficulties!
Today Paige takes us on a journey around the world and talks about a little bit of nightmare fuel: dolls.
We go to Mexico City to the Isla de las Muñecas, the most famous site known for its dolls. It began with a man named Don Julian Santana Barrera, claiming that a little girls spirit haunted the island.
Next we arrive in Japan in Nagoro Village, or better known as Nagoro Doll/Scarecrow Village, where a woman named Tsukimi Ayano has made many dolls in honor of the people of her community.
We come back to the US to Key West, Florida. Here a museum is the current home of a cursed little guy by the name of Robert the Doll. Robert was giving to a little boy by the name of Eugene Robert Otto in the early 1900s by a servant with questionable motives.
Then we end our journey on the East Coast to a badass woman named Frances Glessner Lee, who began the Nutshell Studies of Unexplained Death with Harvard University. Frances loved Sherlock Holmes and was all about the little details. She made composite recreated crime scenes. She made crime scene dioramas, which are still in use today!
