To tantalize our binging tastebuds, discovery+ released two episodes of The Haunted Museum series on October 2. Episode 1, “Dollhouse of the Damned,” could’ve also been called either “The Demon Dollhouse” or “Curse of the Black-Eyed Dad.” (Because black-eyed children have to come from somewhere, right?)

It was the typewriter used to write the screenplay. (See number 2.) It’s among the horror movie artifacts that areContinue Reading

Three creepy Antique porcelain dolls

You know that saying, “Ask and you shall receive?” It’s worked yet again. After visiting Zak Bagans Haunted Museum in December 2019, I had one question: Is there, or is there not, a doll on the Demon House stairs? Well, someone finally responded. Not from the museum.
