48: Exploring the World of Creepy Dolls with Brian and Sara from Unsettling Toys
Update: 2020-08-25
Description
Sara and Brian started Unsettling Toys as sort of a joke, never really expecting it to be as well-received as it's been. But they quickly learned some people are eager to part with dolls and toys that they find unsettling, and others are just as eager to adopt those toys. Unsettling Toys is the liaison that connects the two parties.
They don't specialize in haunted dolls or toys and won't certify any as haunted. They will share the toy's backstory when they know it. Sometimes those stories include creepy things happening that the owners attribute to the dolls.
Not all of their toys and dolls look creepy either. Some, like one they showed the ghouls named Rose with as missing leg, are only missing parts. There was also nothing disturbing-looking about a doll with no name that arrived to them --other than she was wrapped in a double black plastic garbage bag because the family who sent her just wanted her gone.
Some are a bit macabre looking, though, like their mascot, Mr. Creeperton, or Winston the leather lion.
The ghouls loved talking with Sara and Brian about Unsettling Toys, because not only were they fun (and great sports), but they really give a personal edge to how they acquire toys and adopt them out and that was sincere and refreshing.
Questionable
Did Sara find a new doll while looking through the Unsettling Available options? Will Eleanor get a sidekick? Will Deedee help style her?
