Creepy Doll Island

Obsessive crazy people always make for interesting blog posts.

LA ISLA DE LA MUNECAS

Over fifty years ago, Don Julian Santana left his wife and child and moved onto an island on Teshuilo Lake in the Xochimilco canals. According to some, a young girl actually drowned in the lake, while most others, including his relatives, say Don Julian Santana merely imagined the drowned girl. Regardless, Don Julian Santana devoted his life to honoring this lost soul in a unique, fascinating, and—for some—unnerving way: he collected and hung up dolls by the hundreds. Eventually, Don Julian transformed the entire island into a kind of bizarre, (for some) horrifying, doll-infested wonderland.

Enormous Doll Heads - Need We Say More?

Original post here.

These creeptastic hypercephalic dolls are just the kind of bizarre and stomach-churning specimens we love. We can always appreciate the taking of something sweet and innocent like a child's dolly and morphing it into the stuff of your nightmares. Careful now, don't stare too long at these - you know they'll be haunting your dreams tonight...

We love what they do over at Web Urbanist. Every day they feature collected images of some of the most interesting examples of art and design that you have ever seen. Here's yet another one that fits into the continuing theme we have going on Bloody Blondes' with weird, creepy, and generally unsettling works of art. In this case dolls, puppets, and other small creatures. What is it about dolls that lends itself to so easily be twisted and altered so that they can become the most nightmare-inducing examples of freakdom? We don't know exactly what that is, either, but we like these and thought you would, too.
