When it comes to her daughter’s beloved Elsa doll, one mom is more than ready to say “goodbye.” Just last night, I was chatting on the phone with my brother when my 6-year-old niece, Lily, interrupted us. She handed a toy camper to my brother, claiming one of her dolls “just wouldn’t stop moving on its own,” so she had to trap it inside the camper. We laughed it off, because honestly, how else could we settle in for a good night’s sleep? Fast forward to today, and a chilling story about a Frozen doll seemingly haunting a family is sending shivers down spines online.
The now-famous post by a woman named Sarah Williams regarding her daughter’s Elsa doll has certainly raised eyebrows. The story goes like this: Sarah and her family from Florida attempted to get rid of the doll—emphasis on attempted—because the little “haunted” Elsa kept coming back. Not once, but twice.
Her initial decision to toss the Elsa doll stemmed from a simple need for space. “We wanted to declutter before the holidays to make room for new toys,” Sarah shared. “My daughter said she was over it, so it was easy to throw it away. The doll was old and dirty, and she had already scribbled on it, so donation wasn’t an option.” Out it went into the trash.
Yet, much to their surprise, Elsa didn’t stay gone for long. “Two weeks later, while searching for something, we discovered the doll tucked away inside a storage bench in the living room—one we rarely open,” she recounted. The family’s reaction was understandably filled with dread. Sarah explained, “My husband found it and yelled, and I rushed in. He put on rubber gloves, double-bagged the doll, and took it back out to the curb with the rest of the trash.” Sadly for them, the doll returned once again. “Just two weeks later, my daughter found it in the backyard, completely unbagged,” she said.
When asked by the blog about the possibility of a prank being pulled by her kids or husband, Sarah dismissed the idea. “This whole ordeal has caused so much stress for me,” she said. “If it were a joke, they’d have stopped by now. My kids are just excited to see if Elsa returns, much like how they await Santa or the Tooth Fairy.” Her husband is equally on edge, suffering “legitimate lost nights of sleep” over the situation.
Moreover, Sarah pointed out that the alternative—that someone might be sneaking into their home—is even more unsettling. “I wanted to believe it was a person messing with us, but how terrifying is that? It’s scary to think someone could have retrieved it from the trash, especially since the garbage truck had already taken it away.”
Since their story gained traction online, they’ve received a flood of opinions. One recurring point is Sarah’s mention that the doll, initially marketed as bilingual, only spoke English for two years. “Then, it started randomly speaking Spanish as well, and just before we decided to get rid of it, it would only speak Spanish and had stopped singing,” she noted. “Instead, it was just talking, regardless of whether we pressed the button.”
While this didn’t initially raise alarm bells for Sarah, there was one particularly eerie moment that gave her chills. “The creepiest thing happened when I boxed it up to send to a friend in Minnesota. It laughed nonstop for about 30 seconds—something it had never done before. My husband and I stared at it in horror before sealing the box and mailing it off,” she revealed.
As for the doll’s new location, it is now with a man named Alex who doesn’t believe in its haunted claims. “I’m skeptical too, but I can’t explain what happened,” said Sarah. “I’ll feel a lot better if I don’t see it again for a while. After all, it is currently 1500 miles away.” To cover her bases, she sent the doll without a return address, ensuring that Alex couldn’t send it back if it somehow found its way home. If it does return, the family may want to consider moving, hiring a paranormal investigator, or both.
For now, Sarah says Alex has promised to update everyone on his Twitter account about the doll’s antics. So, get ready for your next paranormal obsession.
