The Fort East Martello Museum, in the US state of Florida, for the first time, imprisoned a doll inside a glass box, warning visitors to protect them from its curses, especially if someone touched it or looked at it with disgust, and this step comes in light of the belief of many Americans that this doll carries curses and causes disgust. in the occurrence of disasters.
And the “Daily Star” website indicated that many Americans believe that Robert’s doll, which is more than 100 years old, has caused many disasters for people who underestimated her or did not treat her with respect.

There are two main stories about Robert’s origins and how he came into possession of a young boy named Robert Eugene Otto. The first story says that the young boy’s grandfather bought it for him in Germany, while the other, more egregious legend, asserts that in 1904 it was given to Robert by a dismissed family employee.
