Anyone who collects dolls has likely heard the comment, "Those Dolls are Creepy". But why do so many non-collectors think that? In this episode of The Curious Collector, Stuart Holbrook, the president of Theriault's Doll Auctions, dives into an exploration of how dolls got that label and what about them really creeps some people out. He takes a look at one particular doll whose 'creepiness' means big business for a museum in Key West Florida. Is it all hype or is there really something to it? And he examines how and why Hollywood has perpetuated the concept that there is something inherently evil in dolls that look too much like we do.
