==Auction One==
I'm sure it’sit's happened to us all at least once or twice. You are walking around the flea market or antique mall looking for a treasure or two, and you come upon a beat up looking doll. You think to yourself, "oh that’sthat's charming", or "the child who owned that doll must have really loved this thing"... but what I thought after seeing the doll that is offered today, should never, ever, be repeated...
 
This doll was purchased in a small dirt lot flea market in the quaint town of Webster, Florida. Webster is a very charming, industrious town about 60 miles south west of Gainesville. They have a weekly flea market offering, treasures, bargains, and aisles of kernel corn,...anyways I digress...
Line 6:
I had arrived at the flea market fairly late in the day, when most people were packing up to go home. That is when I saw an elderly man placing the doll in a box. It looked interesting, so I asked the man if I could see it... the conversation went something like this..
 
Man: you don’tdon't want to see this doll
 
Me: sure I do, what do you want for it?
 
Man: Well, that’sthat's a good question, because it’sit's very old... (the man looked like he was going to begin to cry) ... it was my son's, I bought it for him when he was born, and he passed away a few years after...this doll has sat in my work shed for over 60 years. I wasn’twasn't going to bring it out today, but I figured I just needed to get it out of there...anyways, I want 20 bucks for it.
 
I gave the guy 20 bucks, put it in a bag, and walked away. When I was half way down the aisle, the man came running over, visibly out of breath...
 
Man: I have to warn you about something, I can't just let you take him like this...the reason it has been in my shed, is that the doll brought an eerie presence into our house after our son died...we would hear crying and singing from his bedroom...when we went to check it out, there was nothing, just the doll.. other things started to happen, and the priest told me I should burn the doll, I tried and tried, but it would barely burn, that’sthat's why his arms and head and legs are so worn.. anyways I just wanted to let you know...
 
I told him okay, and chuckled to myself as I walked away... that was until I got home, and my life has never been the same...
Line 20:
Two days later my cat died, my girlfriend left me for the pool guy, I began to have chronic migraines, and this is only 2 days after purchasing the doll! A week later I began to hear a children laughing and crying in my basement...Every time I would go to check it out, of course, nothing...
 
This doll has been in an armadillo coffin, in my basement for the last year and half, and I need to get rid of it... I really do believe its cursed, sometimes I touch it, and it seems like it has a pulse, maybe I'm just paranoid, maybe not... The cursed doll measures 21" tall. His/her/its head, arms, and legs are all composition. The eyes are closed when it’sit's lying down.
 
Please ask any and all questions before you bid on this doll. I have not had it out of the coffin for years, so if anything else happens this week I will be sure to let you know. This auction is sold as is! WITH NO RETURNS! PLEASE!
Line 39:
 
==Auction Two==
It’sIt's been over 2 weeks and I am still receiving emails daily about this cursed doll.
 
My life, needless to say, has been fairly hectic. I made an emergency trip to Florida after becoming violently ill after the auction ended. High fever, stomach pains, painful coughs, etc... I was interviewed by the Long Island Press. (Some people are actually taking this story serious, amiss all the skeptics)
Line 47:
When in Florida this past week, I was able to make it to the Webster flea market to see if I could find any more information about the doll or the original owner.
 
I wasn’twasn't able to find the gentleman who sold me the doll, but I did find someone who had said he knew the man, and was a long time friend of the family. (He was also sure to tell me that the man, had passed away some years before..?)
 
The man, his name was Walter, told me that gentleman who's name was Harry, did in fact have a son that had passed away only after a year or two of being born. He also told me that the son was severely disfigured. Walter wouldn’twouldn't go much further then that, as he began to tremble and sweat profusely.
 
The winner of the original auction has an unrecognizable email, and the phone number I got through eBay is not a working number. I am guessing the winner was either too scared, or maybe even cursed by the doll. Either way they received negative feedback, since this doll has been tormenting me for too long. (If anyone thinks I am "making this up" can email me for more details.)
 
Before the last auction ended, I had set up my video camera in the middle of the night. I put the camera on a bench and used the built in "night vision" feature as my only light. I wasn’twasn't able to add the video footage that I took of the doll originally, since the auction had less then 12 hours left.
 
I want to thank everyone who has contacted me and offered me advice about the doll. I would really like to get this doll to someone who could research it, or contain it. It needs to be either locked away in a controlled environment, or destroyed.(Although so far, that seems to be impossible).
 
Again, the cursed doll measures 21" tall. His/her/its head, arms, and legs are all composition. The eyes are closed when it’sit's lying down.
 
Please ask any and all questions before you bid on this doll. As you can see I am a very serious eBay power-seller, I sell high-end antiques and collectibles. This doll has affected my business tremendously, it has made me severely depressed and I haven’thaven't been physically able to list anything in the past two weeks because of my sickness, and how weak I have been. This auction is sold as is! WITH NO RETURNS! PLEASE!
 
Winner pays exact shipping and optional insurance. Check out my other auctions for more vintage collectibles and other fine antiques. Ask all questions before you bid. Even if you think you are sure about condition, pictures, etc, please ask all SPECIFIC questions, BEFORE BIDDING. Thanks and God bless!
Line 109:
Thanks for all of the advice and suggestions. Someone recently emailed me saying that there daughter has seen the doll wink and laugh at her. Anyone with kids see anything like this? I know that they are supposed to be more in touch with the spirit world.
 
Wow. Well this whirlwind of an auction is finally coming to a close (well hopefully, it looks like the curse of 'Haunted Harold" has surpassed, even the wildest of the bizarre occurrences or dreams (but that is another story completely) I have been getting some very interesting emails. Many from people who are psychics, and have claimed to have studied the supernatural, and occult phenomenon for a good part of their life. A few people have said they definitely feel a spirit attached to this doll. They say it’sit's a "male" spirit and it is very angry. They have instructed me to bury the doll, or try to destroy the doll.
 
I still would rather get this doll into the hands of someone who can control it, or study it. I have had it for too long, and just want it out of my possession. At the same time, I feel that this doll is special, and needs to go to the right person. That is why the criticism about the price doesn’tdoesn't bother me. Who is to say the price of a tormented spirit? $100? $500? How much to finally put the soul to rest? If the right person is out there, they will pay almost any price, since their good deeds will come back to them many fold.
 
(YEP, ANOTHER UPDATE TO MAKE MY AUCTION EVEN MORE UNBELIEVABLE) Tell that to the people that swear they see the doll's eyes moving!
