As someone with a personal fear of dolls, I can’t think of anything more terrifying than a bunch of them hanging from trees (you couldn’t pay me enough money to visit the Island of the Dolls), but that’s exactly what a woman discovered while walking through the woods in Cannock Chase, Staffordshire, England.
On January 28
th, a 64-year-old woman who wished to remain anonymous was walking through the woods when she came across dozens of dolls “nailed” and “tied” to trees near the location where the old Pensions Hospital once stood.
In an interview with
Black Country Live, she described the dolls, “They were in some sort of order. Their dresses were all raggedy and they were all tied and nailed to the trees.” She went on say, “And as I came out of the woods I saw a sign that said that this was the operating theatre for the old Pensions Hospital. It was just a little bit weird considering what I do for my job.” The woman is a theatre practitioner at Walsall Manor Hospital.
