Eerie Horror Fest Presents… Deadly Dolls
June 12 @ 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM EDT
FreeFREE ADMISSION!!!
Come one, come all! To talk about Deadly Dolls.
Not all dolls are deadly, yet nearly all share a certain Creep Factor. Their limp bodies. Their blank faces. Their cold dead eyes. They are child size but often have adult features, distorting any true representation of what they are – a parody rooted in the uncanny valley. Yet children and adults alike find themselves giving them a personality and a voice. There is something in our human nature that allows us to do this.
From arcane ritual, to the vaudeville stage and onto Madison Avenue, elements of modern American culture have influenced our perception and relationship with dolls. How we choose to Make Believe says plenty about us, and even more when dolls decide to get nasty!
Join us Wednesday, June 12th at Room 33, to discuss the Big Terrors that come in Small Packages!
Eerie Horror Fest Presents… is a guided discussion of horror media that meets at Room 33 in downtown Erie, PA. Admission is FREE for this event.
Each horrific meeting has a theme and accompanying media put together by our EHF Presents team. Attendees will be led by our hosts to delve into content and themes represented in horror in fun, analytical, and eye-opening ways.
