The Rag Doll at the Pruitt Estate Sale

At a sweltering July estate sale in Opal, Missouri, I found a handmade rag doll with a name tag sewn into its dress: 'Caroline, 1947.' The woman running the sale — Mrs. Pruitt's great-niece — told me the doll belonged to a girl who died in 1953. But the doll's hair was recently re-braided, its dress was clean, and a tiny plastic hair clip from the 1990s was tucked behind its ear. That night, I saw the doll on my nightstand, facing me, with a different clip in its hair. A story about objects that remember their children, and the strange love that makes them linger. #RagDoll #EstateSale #Pruitt #OpalMissouri #July1998 #Caroline1947 #DollLeftOnNightstand #HairClip1990s #ObjectsThatRemember #LingeringPresence #IntimateHorror #SoloNarrated #LunaReads #FexingoHorror #HorrorPodcast #Atmospheric #SmallTownHorror #UnresolvedEnding Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
