Island of the dolls.

My best friend Ally told me about this island in Mexico and I wanna go so badly!

The story goes that an old hermit used to live on an island where a little girl had drowned in the lake. Haunted by visions of her he made shrines of dolls to make her happy, he even swapped home grown fruit and vegetables for old dolls.

Years later he was found dead in the lake that the little girl had previously drowned in.

Now the island has become a sort of doll graveyard where you can see them decaying and falling apart. People who visit say they can hear the dolls whispering and you need to leave them a gift to keep them happy.






Freaky shit eh!?
Peace x
