Episode 18: Beware the Dolls: Cursed Objects, Annabelle, Robert the Doll & Their Unholy Legacies
This week on Dark Florida, we’re diving into the eerie world of HAUNTED DOLLS 😱 — and yes, we’re talking about both Annabelle and the infamous Robert the Doll.
💀 First, we follow the chilling trail of events that unfolded in New Orleans after Annabelle made an appearance in the French Quarter — prison breaks, unexplained fires, and people swearing she brought chaos in her wake.
🎭 Then, all roads lead back to Florida (where else?) as we explore the deeply unsettling story of Robert the Doll in Key West — a cursed toy that has tormented locals, frightened visitors, and maybe even cursed people for simply snapping a photo without permission.
✨ I even share a personal connection to someone who believes Robert cursed them... and tie it all back to the dark energy these dolls seem to carry across state lines.
🕯️ Superstition? Voodoo? A psychological phenomenon? You decide — but don’t say we didn’t warn you…
