Don’t just take anything


The Cursed Doll – Full English Explanation
This is another ultra-disturbing short horror comic (also from the Spanish horror illustrator “Historietas+” or similar circles). It’s usually just called “The Doll” or “My New Daughter.”
Here is the complete story, panel by panel, in plain English:
A lonely single woman (or older sister) lives in an apartment building.
One night she finds an antique porcelain doll abandoned in the hallway trash.
The doll is beautiful but creepy: pale skin, huge black eyes, old-fashioned dress.
She feels sorry for it and decides to take it home.
She cleans it, brushes its hair, dresses it, and starts treating it like a real little girl.
She talks to it, hugs it while sleeping, buys it clothes, and becomes completely obsessed.
She even tells herself, “Now I finally have a daughter.”
At first the doll just stares blankly, but little by little it starts moving on its own when she’s not looking.
She begins having nightmares of a little girl screaming.
One day her actual younger sister (or friend) comes to visit.
The little sister is terrified of the doll and begs her to throw it away.
The woman refuses and gets angry.
That night, the doll kills the little sister off-screen (we see the woman smashing something with a magical-girl wand that belonged to the dead sister).
The woman completely loses her mind.
She starts seeing the doll as her real daughter and believes the real little sister was the “fake” one trying to take her child away.
She cradles the doll every night and smiles like a happy mother.
The final twist is revealed in a newspaper clipping at the end:
“A witch sacrificed her own daughter in a black-magic ritual so that her tormented spirit would remain trapped forever inside a cursed doll.”
The doll was never just a doll; it contained the soul of a little girl who was murdered by her own mother centuries (or decades) ago.
The ritual’s purpose was to keep the daughter’s spirit suffering eternally inside the porcelain body as punishment or out of twisted love.
The woman who “adopted” the doll has now become the new vessel/host.
In the last panels we see the doll’s head cracking open, black smoke pouring out, and the real ghostly little girl finally escaping; while the woman is either possessed or killed.
The very final image shows two little girls (the freed ghost and her new “sister”/the woman now turned into another doll or corpse) happily holding hands and skipping together in broad daylight… while the black cat looks on in horror.
