Nice creepy shot. I love how the light in the foreground melts off into the natural light from the window.
I swear... out of every picture in the whole site, I have never physically jumped out of my seat until this picture! It scared the daylights outta me!!!
damn... old doll's heads are creepy anyways, but when you find one in a place like this...
Good work Motts!
Holy Crap!!

Often I find dalls kind of creept anyway, but, DAMN!!!
Geez, I 'member my dolls all had that sewed-in hair! 8`-)
Motts, you did it with THAT shot!!! Ya done skeert me!!
Poor Elf!!
Disturbing is all i can say..
Eww, how creepy! This shot freaked me out as well.
Wow I thought it was a human skull for a couple seconds.
Whoa... Wasn't ready for that one...

C'mon Weebs "suck it up"

Ok, I am better... next lols
Motts
What a beautiful shot. The lighting, the dolls head just really speak out about the place. You are such an artist
Nice Mr Motts! Creeeeeepy!
Motts warn us about shots like this.

I just spit soda all over my monitor when I saw it!

Great shot but friggin' creepy!
Goes well with this one, from the Metropolitan State Hospital gallery:

I seriously wasn't expecting this one. Mouth popped open at this!
Dolls head?? I thought it was a hairy old blew up baseball........oh well
This is freaky! My daughter has just started taking an interest in dolls......I always found them a little sinister......
nice to have a shot every once in a while that creeps people out like this one does. instead of comments like "this is a great shot" you get "oh god, how creepy!" I think that's just as much praise. The photo still causes an emotion, and it does it's job. Keep it up, Motts.
said to myself just gonna look not comment enjoy the pics..............but dang this one scared the bejesus out of me.........one of the best ones yet!!!
whoa.....naz-teh!
That''s sick.
But it IS a great shot!!!!
Wow, creepy. I think dolls and manequins are scary.
LOVE IT, Motts!
Awesome lighting, incredible depth! Beautiful!
reminds me of the shot from the sub that dove to titanic, the shot of the doll's head, on the ocean floor 12000 ft. down in the debris field....
Now THAT'S an awesome creepy shot, Motts!

"The death of Chucky!" LOL!
damm that thing scarred the shit of me...thank's for that....i hate doll's
From now on Ill never be able to see a doll with out thinking of your picture again.
Gah, i hate dolls in creepy places...
This picture - this whole place - is just sad. A dumping place for people no-one was too eager to have.
ooohh, Toy Story II anyone? What was the name of the creepy neighbor kid who tore all his toys apart and glued them back together in creepy combinations? The spider with the doll's head?
This shot scared me to death...I thought it was a human skull *shudder*

I can't remember the dude in Toy Story II but I 'think' it was buddy or something like that. eh I can't remember, been months since my last babysitting job =)
I thought his name was Sid?

*self confessed Disney tripper!*
Yeah...I think your right...

Yeah, your right.

lol.
HOLY CRAP I THANK I JUMPED AT LEAST 5 FT I THOUGHT IT WAS A HUMAN HEAD AT FIRST.....HOW DO U DO THAT TO A DOLL ANYWAY....I DONT LIKE DOLLS ANY MORE....I DONT THANK I'M GONNA GET ANY FOR MY DAUGHTER.....GREAT WORK THOUGH ;-)
Im going to have to agree...prety creepy.
that is a classic. a pure work of art, she/he needs some timotae....
I really need therapy now BUT...... I did love this shot. although who hasn't. Thanks mottso man
OH MY GOD! *has a seizure because of the creepiness*
You found my doll! Ive been looking for that
I thougth that it was a skull
a skull? with skin and hair, come on.....
Oh...My...GOD! What a SHOT! You just can't make stuff like that up. If I had seen that in person, I would have taken a photo as well, but it wouldn't have come out nearly as well. It does resemble a skull, but I'd never actually think it was a skull. Please sell this as a print! The blue hues in the b/r really compliment the object.
I needed a second look at this one. Creeeepy!
No....not scary at all! *faints*
VERY creepy!!! Excellent work... Great site, by the way, I just stumbled across it.
I stumbled across this site too and now can't get enough. This shot made me think about Sid in Toy Story too and all his dismembered toys. Creepy!
Many years ago, I got my daughter a life-size doll for Christmas. For some reason it always scared her and used to say it would move on its' own. Strange what go through kid's minds.
(Spooky music) woooooooo weeeeeee wooooooo
ok that is creepy looking but a great shot!
Now that shot is going to be a hard one to top. EXCELLENT !!
ha! the doll deservide it!!.....i hate dolls
Nice and creepy! Very great photo. One of my favorites!
Sooner or later everyone gets a little head.
8`-)
Double 8'-)
Omg...



*thud*



(By the way, the "Michele" posted on Wednesday, 06-14-06, is not me...)

*thinking of changing my name to a nick-name for here*
wow. i havent jumped at anything on this site untill i saw this. that really creeped me out.
amazing shot and totally creepy!
Its like a 'TOOL' music video (without the music or the video, but 'Prison Sex' keeps playing through my mind...)

SWEET!
Oh,my God! I thought it was a skull and screamed o-o My parents are mad at me now XD It's like,12;15 in the moring >.> Wicked shot ^^
'And the child cries from the darkest recesses of her nightmare, never to love or caring.. Ever trapped within the mechanics of society which dictates what is right and wrong'..
That is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo....(inhales heavily)ooooooooo creepy.
That's more than just a little bit unsettling...
We are really enjoying your site and pictures Motts. Been doing a little exploring our selves.
We understand dolls in it's self can be a bit creepy, but why this did this doll creep you all out?
Think about what might have been the true story behind the crushed dolls' face!!!!!
This is my favorite so far.
EEEEEEKKK!!!! Wasn't expecting her to peek out at me .................
omigod, scariest picture ever! i found a head like that in the woods behind my house when my sister and i were poking through these old trash piles that were buried back there...i think this might actually be scarier though...
Holy crud. 8D;;;

This one caused me to literally jump out of my seat. I had to do a double take, and even now that I know it's just an old doll's head...it's still flipping disturbing.

But great shot, nonetheless!
Sad little dolly. Somebody used to love her.
ok I literally almost just SCREAMED.

ok its sad, its lonely...

but more than anything... ITS FUGGIN CREEPY.

WHEW ... I'm sooo glad I'm not the only one who aboslutley came nervously close to freaking the hell out . Way to instill nightmares Mr Motts.
I'll be ok *(checks to see that pants are still dry)*
It's just an old baby-doll's head after all, for crying out load.
Looks like something from a horror movie.
Wow Motts! This is hella creepy!
chuckie!!!!
Even though I must admit that this is bloody creepy ... it also makes me sad. What child had to leave behind their doll? I love the blue light and the way it's more clear around the doll
Oh. Oh, yes. Wonderful. Just as I'm going to bed I stumble upon the one thing that really creeps me out.

I'll be over...in my corner...having a heart attack...
This doll's head would be perfect for a horror film!!!

this looks soo scray its too cool. lol. i love this picture this is my favorite!
Man, dolls are creepy...
I remember those too Lynne...damn that makes me feel old.
probably a teacher voodoo doll
i thought that was a childs head for a moment....
after jumping back like hell that i

it makes you wonder what happened to the rest of the face...
Eerily unnerving and quaintly beautiful.
Amazing shot!
Nice creepy shot King Motts!!!
thought that was a skull at first too......took me a moment to realize what it was *phew* gives me another reason to hate dolls ><
Ok...I'm tired its late...and *jaw drops* i just spilled my coffee....
MOTTS you are a photography god
Wonder who she belonged to?
This is probably thesingle, most scary image I've ever seen. Even worse because of the fact that nothing you do is staged, motts. Damn you find the most amazing things...
this has made me more scared of dolls then i have ever been in my entire life! amazing shot motts! but if i was there that doll would of been crushed sevral times under my foot...''hi im maggy wanna play'' :P
creepy ... clowns and old broken down dolls freak me out ... oh and needles. ick.
what you would expect out of a horror movie. creepy
Holy Hannah...I can''t add any more than the comments already...but SHOOT that made my heart skip a beat or three. Glad my husband is in the next room. I almost screamed and he looked at me like "what?"

Good grief--we have 2 girls and a TON of baby-dolls. Nightmares anyone??
i heard they used to shrink peoples heads at these old hospitals.....NOT!!

lmao! just kidding, lynn!!
