In a twist of fate that could only belong in a horror film, a woman found herself seated next to an unsettling doll on a recent red-eye flight. While many of us have endured our fair share of travel nightmares—be it turbulent skies, wailing infants, or the misfortune of a lackluster in-flight movie—Sara Bennett’s experience took an unusual turn.
On what she hoped would be a peaceful journey, the empty seat beside her was suddenly filled by a truly bizarre travel companion: a creepy baby doll. The lone traveler adjacent to her had clearly made this peculiar choice, as he not only secured a seat for the doll but even went as far as naming it—Barbara.
Speculations about the doll’s presence ran wild; perhaps it was a gift for a child, a quirky joke, or even a therapist’s advice to help with some unaddressed trauma. Or, could it have been something more sinister, like the reincarnation of a malevolent spirit? With thoughts racing through her mind, Sara wisely chose not to inquire directly, likely fearing that Barbara herself might respond.
As the flight progressed, Sara took to Twitter to share the bizarre encounter with her followers. Her ability to document the absurdity of the situation was commendable; had I been in her shoes, I might have spent the entire flight in the bathroom, overwhelmed by anxiety. Fortunately, she managed to disembark without incident, only to discover that on her next flight—after a two-hour layover—who should be seated across the aisle? None other than Barbara!
Next time, Sara might want to consider driving instead of flying. One thing’s for sure: this wild experience will not be forgotten anytime soon.
