Acquired a legendary and fearsome reputation.
Robert is now in the East Martello Museum in Key West, Florida
Visitors and staff of the Museum have
Many unusual events reported since the arrival of Robert.
Agatha, take this. I put it down here.
How is she?
She's... it's not really good with her.
I hope you do not mind me asking, but... What happened?
There lately happened a lot of things
Always at night. Like what?
... As we hear things.
As if people walk through the aisles.
As if moving the furniture.
A few nights ago I went out and was written on the walls.
Horrible messages.
As if there really was someone in the house
You know as well as I do.
We have to move.
I know you do not want to believe at first, but you can not deny it anymore.
There is a dark presence here.
I know, Debbie. I know that.
There is a presence here...
But you're wrong about ιιn thing. What?
It's not the house that's possessed...
It's the doll.

Well...
I know we have to do it, but... God, I feel so bad, you know.

I can not help it...
Sometimes I think you see me as... a mother.
A housewife.
I'm more than that.
Remember when Gene was born, we promised that we
Would trust our carriθre.
Jenn... my work is our main source of income.
Maybe I can get some more free

She said something very strange when I had found her.
What did she say?
She said it was the doll.
The doll?
That's what she said.
It was the doll.
What exactly does that mean? I do not know.
Maybe they struikeklde the pop Gene

Oh no, no, I do not feel good now. No.
Come on Jenn, I accept no no for an answer.
Okι, we go out... we go good food...

You're doing all night like that.
What is it?
Paul, something strange about the house wrong, do not you see it?
What do you mean?
Well, I found the vacuum cleaner in a pool of blood bottom of the stairs.
Curiously, do not you think?
It was an accident.
And then there was written on the mirror.
Here we have already talked about?
Yes, there are other things.
Like what?
Last night went into the room of Gene.
I heard two voices coming from his room
And when I went inside he talking to that doll.
You heard... you heard voices?
Look, I know what you're thinking
But this was not my symptoms, okι? It was real.
Maybe it seemed real. I'm serious, Paul.
Since Agatha doll on
Gene has made strange things happen.
As...
Gene...
Gene told me that pop talk back.
You have a stressful time
And had a stressful day, Jenn.
Sometimes when you are stressed
The smallest things can disturb you.
Do you think that these things only in my head?
You say you hear things
And see things. I do not know what to believe.
You believe me not?
What does that mean?
Maybe you're forgetting that I through the years
Had a diagnosis. But not me!
My God, I do know otherwise.
I feel betrayed, Paul. Do not be ridiculous, Jenny!
I have never cheated or something?
Why do men always it
The only way is to cheat to gain the trust of a woman?
You do not support me, Paul!
Okι, Jenn! Please! It's all good!
Marcie?
Marcie!
She's not down here. Marcie!
Gene ?!
Ah, thank God!
It's okay, honey. Go back to sleep.
What is wrong with this girl?
She goes away and leave our son alone!
Jesus, what kind of game she plays.
You know what? This is ridiculous.
I'm calling to her house.
Calm, Jenn. Okι?
I'm calling to her house.
Do not tell me that I need to calm down, you let the damn door!
Anyone can enter!
Okι, thanks.
Thanks.

THE PRIORY
What are you doing here, ma'am?
I...

I thought the door was open maybe .
Well... not.
No, uh...
Okι, uh...
I'm looking for Agatha.
Do you know her? Sure.
I lived 25 years next to her.
Okι, uh...
'IF you expect her to come home?
Unfortunately not.
Agatha's new home is in "Old Park".
Cemetery. You mean she's dead?
I'm afraid so.
Jesus...
What happened?
Who are you, ma'am?
Agatha has a few years worked for me.
The truth is that I Agatha few important items to know.
And, uh...
I really want her back as...
As I can.
Do you mind?
Good.
Hello, hello, Doctor Franklin.
Hello...
Yes, uh... this is Paul Otto.
Nice, uh...
Do you have a moment, anyway?
It's about my wife, Jenny.
And, uh...
And my son, Gene.
Hello.
Hello... Can I help you?
Steven, right? Yes.
I am Jennifer Otto and I want to talk to you about Agatha.
She has worked here, right?
Yes, she has.
I'm afraid she's recently deceased.
Do not like to hear it, which is really bad news.
Yes, uh...
Anyway, uh...
I want to know if we can talk.
This is I do not look so good. I'm sorry.
To be honest... I come from far away, and...
I will not take up too much time.
But...
5 minutes.
Well...
Yes, that's...
5 minutes.
Thank you.
Come in. Thank you.
Hι, Gene...
Do you Robert caught the scvhuur? No.
Why was he in the barn?
Are you...
Your mother put him in there.
Oh, no!
What?
Robert is going to be angry.
So you want to talk to me about Agatha?
Yes.
Something.
Okι?
What does that mean?
Well, uh...
Agatha has worked for several years for my family.
But she was a bit of...
Senile and forgetful.
Yes... I actually, uh... her hearing
Already slightly deteriorated when she still worked for us.
Yes, I mean...
Maybe you already know, but...
We had to let her go.
Anyway...
Before she left she gave my son a doll.
The doll name is Robert.
Quiet, please.
What?
My wife...
My wife is upstairs.
My wife is upstairs and is not quite right.
I'm sorry to hear that.
I know of pop.
Why are we whispering?
Because the doll is why my wife is not well.
What do you mean?
You have to get from there.
Evil can be contagious.
Hι where are you going, buddy?
To bed.
See you, Dad.
Maybe we can just say goodnight , Gene.
I know.
But this time it's "goodbye".
I never knew puppets could be spooky
Or possessed.
When a soul finds its way in the heart of a house
Is a doll or toy the perfect host.
Evil disguised as innocence.
No one would suspect anything.
And the evil spirit in the pop I mean, you know who he is?
Honey, do not wor talking about here, it's...
Stop me underrated, I'm fine.
Okι.
I left a psychic come to do a reading in the home.
And they told us that the doll ever
Far belonged to a child named Robert Crow.
He was murdered.
His body was found in a river...
He is still attached to the doll.
The police investigation
Revealed that Robert was murdered by his father.
After Robert's death was the doll to his nephew
Who named it after his family.
And, uh...
She soon realized possessed doll...
By the ghost of the murdered boy.
They put him in an attic and spirit remained there for years.
Agatha moved to the house Robert Crow's cousin
And she found the doll in the attic.
The Prophet said... Agatha was a restless soul
And had experimented with the dark cards.
She went straight to the spirit and it gave the power to manifest.
My son says... Robert my husband and I can not.
Course.
Because the mind to proceed.
Robert Doll has something against other dolls.
When he was confirmed a child that he could be very possessive.
Jenn, you and your husband are in great danger.
I locked him in the barn.
That's not enough to stop this haunts.
You should go home and destroy the doll.
Chop it, shred it, burn it, do what you gotta do
To destroy it.
Whether it will destroy you!
Oh, come on!
Paul?
Sweetheart?
