What makes you different or weird, that’s your strength.

-Meryl Streep

It’s time for creepy cuties! Yay! It’s funny how I hate anything scary but love creepy cute dolls. I won’t watch any horror movies, and avoid all creepy costumes. They really do scare me. However, I have a big place in my heart for the creepy cute and beautiful characters. I love to turn what I consider creepy into something that I find cute. So here is the first Halloween baby of the year.

Meet Franklin, a Frankenstein’s monster inspired baby that loves Halloween, ugly dolls, and bats. Franklin is one of those sweet babies that get woken up every year by a mad scientist. He does it with all the good intentions, thinking that is what the grieving parents would like. However, most people get traumatized by this, so he ends up giving these babies to me so I can find them homes. I have been very lucky all these years finding homes for these babies so I hope this one finds a home too. This one is smaller than the one from last year, but he is so sweet and adorable.

Franklin sleeps most of the time, but when you charge him he really is a the cutest thing. He enjoys books, especially the ones with dragons, monsters, and bats. His favorite movie is Hotel Transylvania and his favorite character is Dracula of course. He even talks like him sometimes “blablablabla”. Franklin is super excited about Halloween so I made him a little costume and even a little bag to put his candy in. I made him a tiny bag because I feel he is too little for candy, just fill it with flowers and tiny toys, I don’t think he will know the difference. He actually does not eat. The perks of being a science experiment. Franklin came with a little ugly doll, not sure if the crazy scientist made it too, the important part is that Franklin loves it and he feels safe with it so he will be traveling with his doll of course.

Franklin is an 8 inch creepy cute baby boy doll inspired in Frankenstein’s monster. Franklin’s skin is Organic Cotton Interlock hand dyed to a pale green color. Limbs and torso are firmly filled with clean wool. Head is floppy. Legs and arms are floppy on the shoulders and thighs. Arms are sewn directly to the torso three times for extra strength. Legs and torso are one piece. The head is firmly needle felted, soft sculpted on the mouth and eyes. This doll is fully soft sculpted. His black hair is a hand crocheted big loop mohair wig cap. The wig has been hand sewn to his head. This hair should not be brushed. Ears are hand sewn to the head as well. He has 2 wool felt screws hand sewn to his temples and has many embroidered details to represent the Frankenstein’s monster.

Franklin will go home wearing the clothes and accessories you see in his photos, all handmade by me:

• handmade wool mix diaper with safety pin
• handmade cotton shorts with upcycled bias tape suspenders
• handmade wool felt bat wings
• hand crocheted cotton booties
• hand crocheted cotton bat hat
• handmade wool felt and cotton halloween pumpkin bag
• handmade linen tiny voodoo doll

This doll is not a toy, it is an art doll, intended for adults and children 10 years or older that do not mouth their toys and can be gentle with their dolls.

Franklin’s adoption fee is 365 USDollars plus shipping. Shipping inside Mexico is free with Standard registered mail (It can be upgraded at the customer’s expense).

Shipping to the US and Canada is 30 USDollars through Mexpost (Mexican Priority Shipping). Shipping to Europe is 35 USDollars. Other countries will be 50 USDollars.

Dolls going to the United States have a 10% of the price of the doll fee. This needs to be paid before I can send the doll because it is now a requirement at the post office, so it will be added to the shipping charges.

If you would like your doll to be sent with a private courier with full insurance let me know so I can give you an accurate quote.

Only dolls sent through private courier can be insured.

****Customs taxes and fees may apply and they are the costumers responsibility.****

If you would like to adopt this creepy cute baby, make sure you fill out the form at the end of the post. If there is more than one person interested in him, I will draw a name at random, I will take entries for Franklin until Friday, August 28, 2026, at 12noon CST (Mexico City Time).

There are some changes on how dolls will be paid for. I will not send PayPal invoices anymore, dolls will be paid through my doll shop (Big Cartel) I believe this to be easier and safer for both me and the customer. Once a family has been chosen I will make a listing for the doll in my Doll shop and send it to the new family. The listing needs to be paid upon receipt. Because I know some people live in a different time zone, I will give until 12midnight CST on August 29 for the doll to be paid for or else the doll will go to the next person.

Please only fill out the form for this doll if you are sure you want it and are able to pay for it. This doll is for sale if you get selected you get to buy him. I am not giving the doll for free.

By filling out the form you agree that you are 18 years or older. You can only fill out the form once.

I hope this sweet baby didn’t scare you too much.

Read you soon.

Hugs,

Aubrey
