The Longer You Look . . .

. . . the creepier it gets! Lots of questions about this one - that will never be answered.
Oh, please tell me that's a doll the woman in the middle is holding...no wait, even if it IS a doll, that's not good....and why are there only women, except for that one little boy??? I'm going back to watching "Scream" on the tube...it's a lot less frighting than this photo...(oh, and I'm fav'ing this...)

@linnypinny And why are there so many old ladies in this pix? And why does that little girl have pants on? And why why WHY is that lady holding a doll like it's a real baby??? Guess we'll just have to remain curious, Lin. Unless we decide to make up a story to go with it. Wait, no, better not. Ha ha ha! Thanks for the fave! ;)

The first thing noticed was the little one trying desperately to get out of the lady's lap!

@lsanderson55 She does NOT want to be there . . . and I don't blame her! ;)

I'm guessing that this is a family picture, and those old ladies are either all sisters or at least cousins. The baby doll is disturbing, though! LOL!

@homeschoolmom I think you're right, Lisa. There is a strong family resemblance, especially amongst the older ladies.

A picture may be worth a thousand words, but in this case I think we'd all appreciate a few words to go along with this bizarre picture!

@allie912 Or not! ;)

Hmmm...I guess I'm just not seeing it as creepy. It doesn't seem so bizarre to me. I find myself wanting to know more about the photo, but that may be the genealogy lover in me. I grant that it's a bit odd for the older woman in the center to be holding the doll in the picture, but I can think of several non-bizarre reasons for it. I love the baby struggling to get down off the lap! I wish I knew who they were (but I suppose that would take the mystery out of it) -- where did you get the photo, Julie? Is is some branch of your own family?

@mcsiegle Thanks, Mary! It's a photo from an antique shop. I've no idea the story behind it, but would love to know! ;)
