Why are haunted dolls so creepy?

In Episode 2 of Hexcommunicated, we're getting into haunted, cursed, possessed, and magically significant dolls.

From Annabelle and Robert the Doll to lesser-known haunted dolls, we explore the stories behind allegedly possessed objects, how these legends developed, and why dolls have become such a common part of paranormal folklore.

But there's more to dolls than horror stories. We also get into puppets, magical uses of dolls, Worry Dolls, cultural traditions, and the ways dolls have been used to represent friendship, protection, grief, ritual, and even spirits.

Then it's game time.

We're playing Cryptid Smash or Pass and putting some of the world's most famous cryptids on trial, including Mothman, Bigfoot, the Chupacabra, Frogman, the Jersey Devil, the Fresno Nightcrawler, the Flatwoods Monster, the Dover Demon, the Loch Ness Monster, and the Beast of Bray Road.

Are haunted dolls actually haunted? Why do so many paranormal stories involve dolls? And which cryptids are apparently dateable?

Are your everyday habits actually rituals?

Welcome to the first episode of Hexcommunicated: Life Ritualized.

We kick things off by asking a deceptively simple question: what actually makes something a ritual?

From religious practices and witchcraft to chores, driving through tunnels, making wishes, superstitions, and the weird little things we do without even thinking about them, we explore how ritual shows up in everyday life.

Hexcommunicated is a podcast about metaphysical and occult ideas that's meant for everyone. We explore strange beliefs, spirituality, folklore, and the supernatural while learning, laughing, and occasionally making fun of ourselves along the way.

What everyday thing do YOU do that might secretly be a ritual?
