Australia is home to one of the oldest and creepiest “possessed” toys out there: Letta the Doll (Letta-Me-Out), a doll that was found under a purportedly haunted home and, according to its new owners, has been engaging in hijinks ever since.  Apologies for the pronunciation of Wagga Wagga; we checked this in a professional documentary produced on Letta and one news clip but a kind Australian let us know that it was inaccurate.
