I have these wonderful antique Bisque Dolls from Thuringia, Germany that date from 1890-1920. And then I got this fabulous cemetery set with Edgar Gorey influence(crafterella.etsy.com) and oh my, then my innately gothic nature started screaming “Make a film!”
I hope you all enjoy the creepy fruits of my inspiration. My Kinder Geists (child spirits) had a very good time
