The evil doll Missy

In late 1800s New York City, Jane Bielawski received a doll she named Missy. Following the suspicious deaths of some of her playmates in a NY tenement, police attempted to interview Jane. The young girl went crazy, accused her doll of the murders and threw the doll out of her 5th floor apartment window while screaming, "Bad dolly! Naughty dolly!"

Jane was taken to Bloomingdale Asylum in Manhattan to be treated for hysteria. She never left the institution, dying an old woman in 1968. She never stopped claiming that her doll, Missy, was evil and caused the deaths of Jane's friends.What happened to the doll remains a mystery.
