A pair of thieves who stole a 'Hello Kitty' doll from a totaled truck in a Thai scrapyard wound up hastily returning the pilfered toy after they experienced unsettling paranormal activity upon bringing it into their home. The very weird case reportedly unfolded this past Tuesday in the community of Mueang, when the proprietor of the business noticed that the rather sizeable depiction of the iconic cartoon character, which had been sitting in the backseat of the destroyed vehicle for the past few months, was now inexplicably situated on the ground outside the truck. Puzzled by how this came about, he checked the security camera footage and discovered that a couple had stolen the doll earlier in the day, but that was only the start of the odd incident.
As he continued watching the footage, the scrapyard owner was surprised to see that the same couple had come back to the property the next day in the early morning hours, wherein they quickly dumped the doll and fled the scene. At a loss for why they would have done such a thing, he recalled being told that the toy was actually a birthday gift that had been given to the driver of the vehicle before they perished in the crash that totaled the truck and that the doll had remained unclaimed in the vehicle since it arrived at the site back in May. As such, the scrapyard owner theorized that, unbeknownst to the thieves, the doll was actually haunted.
Amazingly, when the two culprits were eventually identified and questioned, they appeared to confirm the scrapyard owner's supernatural suspicion. When asked why they returned the doll, one of the thieves explained that, after stealing the toy, she encountered the shadowy figure of a little girl in her bedroom that night and, eerily, felt the sensation of someone or something choking the life out of her. The experience was so unsettling that the duo quickly concluded that the doll was possessed by a sinister spirit. As such, they immediately went back to the scrapyard and dropped the toy off in front of the truck in the hopes of making amends with whatever dark forces they had seemingly upset with their misadventure.
