It IS art, whatever was intended. Which was probably that a kid dropped their doll and blanket, it got run over and the head went down the sewer, then someone picked them up and put them on the post, out of the way.
(showing picture of the doll to my wife) Me: "Did you see this creepiness?" Her: "Yeah, didn't you see it before?" Me: "Huzzah wuzzah?" Her: "It was lying in the street for days. Someone must have picked it up." Me: "So probably a kid dropped their doll and blanket, it got run over and the head went down the sewer, then someone picked them up and put them on the post, out of the way?" Her: "Yeah, something like that probably." Me: "Oh."
Originally shared by Curt Thompson This is an interesting theory, but I notice the author has to omit one of the most important Heinlein novels to make it work. Time Enough For Love was written in the very early 70s and was a straight (heh) extrapolation of the chaotic and frenetic zeitgeist of that era. http://www.locusmag.com/Perspectives/2012/11/the-joke-is-on-us-the-two-careers-of-robert-a-heinlein/

Originally shared by Andrew “Incomitatum” Chason Hit Me with your Horror I am looking for some horror flicks. The newer the better. Good is good too. I liked House of 1000 Corpses and Devil's Rejects . I liked both the new Texas Chainsaw movies. Hills Have Eyes 1 was good (never saw the second . Jeepers Creepers 1 & 2 come to mind as well. A little camp, and/or "back woods" can't hurt. Any of you have any recommendations? Lets try and not go too far back than mid 90's. Aside: How was the new "Freddy" movie? Suggested So Far • Bones (2001) • Drag Me to Hell (2009) • The Grudge (2004) • Don't Be Afraid of the Dark (2010) • Dog Soldiers (2002) • The Decent (2005) • Creature (2011) • The Last Winter (2006)
Has anyone reported a doll missing? Oh, god, where's the head!?!?!?!
ReplyDeletePossibly art?
ReplyDeleteClearly a ritual sacrifice.
ReplyDeleteOr maybe Doll Man and/or the Puppet Master moved into the neighborhood...
ReplyDeleteArt is what I was thinking. Or prank.
ReplyDeleteMy part of town is less artsy, more fartsy.

The red blanket made me think it was supposed to look like blood, so someone left it there to upset passing motorists.
ReplyDeleteOr the doll represents childhood and the blanket "blood" represents the way imagination is drained from us by corporate America.
ReplyDeleteIt forces you to drive by, and makes you realize that in doing so we are all complicit.
ReplyDeleteIn a way, I put that doll on that post.
