Though one of the coolest holidays, Halloween is barely celebrated in England. I wanted to mark it in some way. My initial thought was to review the costumes for sale in the pound shop. I had expected these to be entirely derivative and of poor quality, but these were so bad that the prospect of spending even a pound on each removed all the humour for me.
Pending legal action prevents me from documenting the events surrounding my lifesize human shaped piniata with vaguely anatomically correct offal filling.
The only thing that approaches fulfilling my desire to post something this truly disturbing are these dolls. I saved these images several months ago simply because they are all creepy. I can think of no better purpose for which to use them.

These dolls are the easiest to identify. They are inbred.

The fact that there is little outwardly strange about these dolls is exactly that which makes them so creepy. These dolls were made by long term hospital residents, and spend most if not all of their lives in the hospital. Occasionally one will escape, in the unlikely event of recovery, or a gift from an inmate to a relative. One of these may be watching you as you read this right now.

Should you suspect that this doll did not look entirely like this when I found the image, you would be quite right.

It seems that most of the dolls on Google image search are medical mishaps. These dolls are interracial siamese twins, joined at the head. For some reason, only the white twin is clothed.

These are either husband and wife or brother and sister dolls.

Anthropomorphic animal dolls are an ideal purchase for anyone who wants their children to grow up to be disturbed.

The Goo Goo Dolls, however, are doubtless the scariest dolls of all.
