Mom Says Haunted Elsa Doll Keeps Coming Back Even After She Throws It Away
A family in Houston, Texas, says that they’ve been “haunted” by an Elsa doll — and yes, you could say it just won’t let them go. The Madonia family have tried multiple times to throw away the doll from Frozen, but just can’t seem to get the doll to stay away.
On Facebook, mom Emily Madonia wrote that she gave the doll to her daughter in 2013
Seven years later, it was time to chuck it in the trash.
“Mat threw it away weeks ago and then we found it inside on a wooden bench,” she explained in a Facebook post on Thursday that has since gone private, but was reported by Today.com.
So, the parents redoubled their efforts
“Okay … so we were weirded out and tightly wrapped it in its own garbage bag and put that garbage bag INSIDE another garbage bag filled with other garbage and put it in the bottom of our garbage can underneath a bunch of other bags of garbage and wheeled it to the curb and it was collected on garbage day,” she continued.
Thinking they had finally rid themselves of Elsa, the family went away on vacation
But when they came home? BOOM. Elsa was waiting for them.
“Today Aurélia says ‘Mom, I saw the Elsa doll again in the backyard,'” she wrote.” HELP US GET RID OF THIS HAUNTED DOLL.”
And to make things even creepier, the doll which sings the hit “Let It Go” when you touch a button on her collar now only sings in Spanish “even when it was turned off.”
At first the family thought it must have been a prank, but Emily noted to a reporter at KPRC that her daughter’s doll had marker scrawls on her face and the doll that returned to them had the same drawings on it every single time.
“Most logical thinkers believe it’s a prank, but I don’t understand how or when it was done, especially because the garbage truck had taken it away,” she added.
Which is why the parents decided to go to drastic lengths to get rid of it
Emily said that she decided to mail Elsa to an “online running friend,” Chris Hogan, in Minnesota — without a return address so he couldn’t mail it back.
And if all of this wasn’t creepy enough, the mom said that the doll laughed for 30 seconds when she put it in the box to Minnesota — which had never happened before.
“If the doll comes back, I might have to open my mind to some of the more supernatural solutions,” she told the news station.
Meanwhile, Chris received the doll and said he’s taped her to the brush guard of his Jeep.
“If anything weird happens I’m welding her into a steel pipe and sinking it in Lake of the Woods,” he joked online.
But still, Emily is freaked.
“Either the doll is haunted or some crazy psychopath has dug the doll out of the garbage (that was already taken away) and broken into my house/property multiple times,” she wrote. “I am going to go with the haunted thing.”
“In the end, I’m just a mom and a violinist and a wife and a normal person who doesn’t want to be forever known as ‘the haunted doll lady,'” she continued. “I am fascinated by the unknown though and this whole experience has been pretty entertaining. But I am extremely happy the doll is not here anymore and I hope to God it stays that way.”
We do too.
