Church lady confesses: She left creepy dolls for spooked neighbours

A California woman who spooked her small community by anonymously leaving porcelain dolls on the doorsteps of fellow churchgoers that eerily resembled their daughters told police she’s embarrassed by the incidents.

The creepy dolls, some wearing fuzzy slippers or frilly gowns, turned up at more than a half-dozen homes in San Clemente last week, according to Orange County Sheriff’s Lieutenant Jeff Hallock. Interviews with families that received the dolls led authorities to the local church lady, who then admitted her involvement.
