The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe the most haunted doll in the world, the world famous Robert The Doll. This doll has about four origin stories and we cover the most likely as well as a few less verifiable. Regardless, this is one old and creepy looking thing that has allegedly messed with people for more than a century at time of recording in late 2023. It is said that Robert Eugene ‘Gene’ Otto always had an unhealthy relationship with Robert the Doll and indeed, the doll appears to have been cared for much like a human. Did Robert return that care? There have been hundreds of witnesses to the power of Robert and those powers continue to this day as less thoughtful, less considerate individuals visit Robert in his current residence and take photos of Robert, without asking for permission. Those same individuals can experience misery until they write to Robert The Doll, apologising. The episode covers theories to explain these incidents including a voodoo curse, demon, negative energy manifesting and pure simple bad luck. But is Robert really responsible for misery, injury, divorce and death? All that and more on this week’s file.
