Living Dead Dolls Are Dying To Eat Meet You!
You may have heard of collectible dolls before, but Living Dead dolls are far from the types of dolls that your mom collected. If you’re fascinated by the dark side of movies and lore, you may enjoy Living Dead dolls. They were inspired by horror movies.

These dolls were created in 1998, and they were introduced to the public in New Your City, at the Chiller Theater. Both of the creators were avid horror movie fans.
Living Dead dolls are a bit less than a foot tall, and their boxes are shaped like coffins. Most of them even come with their own death certificate – how morbid is that? Each doll “died” on a significant date in history, and each also has a short poem printed either on the death certificate or the coffin packaging.
Both creators grew up loving Halloween and all things macabre, and out of their friendship came the creation of Living Dead dolls. They will tell you that they don’t look at what they sell – rather, they market what horror fans will love, because they are fans as well.

The first Living Dead dolls were made like “craft dolls” and customized individually by the two creators. These are called “handmades” by collectors. The first doll actually came from a doll kit, but it’s safe to assume that the way it came out was not what the original doll designer had in mind. The two creators made the next dolls together and sold 
them through one friend’s mail order company. At a convention, a toy maker bought one of the Living Dead dolls, and offered the designers a contract to commercially distribute the dolls.
The first edition of dolls sold out at the Chiller convention. The very first doll, named “Sadie”, and her “friends” sold for about $24 originally. If you find originals on eBay today, it will cost you between $800 and $1,000. The Living Dead dolls are so collectible today because every single series of the dolls has sold out. Teens and other horror film fans enjoy collecting the various Fashion Victims lines and the rest of the series. People from youngsters to middle-aged women buy the dolls, as do adult men.
Living Dead dolls have expanded their collection to include special editions and apparel, fashion dolls, mini dolls, rag dolls, baby dolls, stationary sets, Halloween costumes and board games. Three of the newer dolls are very popular, based as they are on “Edward Scissorhands”, “Texas Chainsaw Massacre” and “Friday the 13th”.
Right now, there are over one hundred characters in circulation, and they release new series two times a year. Each series has five different styles of dolls. Four to six special editions are released each year as well, through select various retailers.
