An episode of the US edition of Antiques Roadshow has left viewers completely freaked out, after an owner brought in a creepy porcelain doll dating back to Victorian times with an even more terrifying backstory.
The doll - which was brought into the New Orleans site in near perfect condition - was appraised by antique expert Billye Harris, who informed the guest that the item was made in 1880 France by Leon Casimir Bru. Harris explained that the 19th century toy was called a 'French Circle Dot Bru doll,' and that the maker was renowned for creating the "finest toys." The expert then made a point of focusing on the glass paperweight eyes, which she stated were curved and bulged out to give the doll a more "realistic, human feature." After listing all the features of the Leon Casimir Bru creation, Harris estimated that the doll would retail for around $12,000 to $14,000.
Which naturally, the owner was completely blown away by. But, while the doll itself gave fans the creeps - with many citing it reminded them of a horror movie character - the owner left viewers stunned when he revealed the history behind his item.
He told Harris that his mum used to collect vintage and antique porcelain dolls, and would try and replicate their characteristics by making her own at home.
The guest explained: "She would actually teach doll making, my dad would pour the moulds. We had a kiln in the backyard and eyeballs in all kinds of drawers and all the body parts laying all over the place." This image clearly left an impression on Harris, who suggested that his childhood home must have resembled Frankenstein's studio, which the owner confirmed.
It looked "pretty wild sometimes," he recalled. Following the episode's airing, the clip was added
