Dolls are creepy. Seriously, I spent a good chunk of the past week attended/writing about Toy Fair, so I feel like I can definitively make that statement. There's just something about that cold, lifeless stare that's inherently upsetting. Seriously, why do you think they've been the subject of so many horror films? With that in mind, it's perhaps not the biggest shocker in the world to hear that one has been making death threats.
What is shocking, however, is the fact that said doll is actually a lovable Muppet. Honestly, I'd always figured that I could count on the cast of Sesame Street not to murder me in my sleep. If you happen to have picked up a new latest Elmo Doll, however, you may have effectively signed a lovable, cuddly death warrant.
According to a Florida mother, Elmo is making death threats to her two-year-old son, James. The doll, which can be programmed to say a child's name, is playing for keeps, uttering the words "Kill James," after a recent battery change.
