Residents baffled by creepy dolls left around Missouri county

Aug. 16 (UPI) -- Authorities in Missouri are investigating after residents reported finding creepy dolls posed in odd locations around a county.

Residents of Jefferson County said the dolls have been discovered posed in strange locations that sometimes lead them to initially be confused for children.

"When we found this one, it was laying in front of our building. We picked it up and it was the doll, they've been hanging on top of stop signs, laying in front of the license office," Angela Ravellette told KTVI-TV.

The dolls have been discovered in both Festus and Crystal City.

(remember it's Jefferson County), but it's an actual doll. Opps, mistaken Identity!

Someone got a weird sense of humor...it's kind of nice to see this...instead of the crap some put out there, someone is playing a joke (I hope its a joke)...
