What is the name of a movie where the doll comes to life and slowly steals the soul of it's owner?

There was a cat involved somehow - I think it saved the kid's life and the parents thought it was dangerous or something like that. The thing would leave the doll's body at night to go hide in a mouse hole or a crack in the wall.





It's an older movie, one I remember seeing as a kid in the early 90's.|||Stephen King's "Cat's Eye" (1985) starring a young Drew Barrymore?

The General (one of three stories):



The cat is adopted by a little girl, Amanda (Drew Barrymore), who names him General. The cat runs afoul of the girl's mother (Candy Clark), who believes he will harm their pet parrot.



Despite Amanda's protests, the mother puts the cat out at night. As a consequence, he is unable to protect Amanda from a malevolent troll that has also taken up residence in the house. The troll lives in a mouse hole or other opening in the wall and carries a small dagger.

When will my american girl doll be back from the doll hospital?

I sent her to the doll hospital on March 28,2011, it takes 2 to 3 weeks for it to come back in the mail what date in April whould she come back?|||My daughters American girl Samantha had a run in with our rabbit who chewed off her nose :-( She went to the hospital and came back about two weeks later.

How to fix a porcelain doll's hair without taking off their wig?

I bought a doll from a thrift store and she's amazingly beautiful. She's from the San Fransisco Music Box Co. The only problem is she looks like she last belonged to a two-year-old.





I went to take off her wig and I can't ... I don't know how its attached to her head, to be honest. I don't want to ruin the doll or her clothing (which are made of velvet) I also don't want to ruin any of the mechanics of the music box.





Any suggestions?|||I would look into trying to put another wig on over the existing hair. If you have access to doll supplies, try finding a wig that will just fit over the hair she has now. If you find a suitable wig, very carefully trim off all the old hair as close to the head as possible, then install the old one on over it.

How do I find someone who can help me identify an old doll?

How to know and take care of a Pre - Mattel American Girl Doll?

I think my Samantha doll is pre - mattel. She has different eyelashes, and her vinyl feels different. Her neck is stamped Pleasant Company. Her head is delicate, and sometimes falls out. How can I fix this? How do you take care of pre - mattel dolls? I want to also know, are they worth more. Could you please give some tips on finding a great condition Nellie, for a cheap price. (I have been looking on Ebay.) Thanks!|||Characteristics of PM dolls are as follows:


1. Soft/er eyelashes that match their hair color.


2. Larger and more fully stuffed torsos


3. Larger limbs, feet, and heads


4. Vinyl limbs that are soft and somewhat squishy


5. Some people say the faces of PM dolls have a softer, sweeter expression and that their features are more defined.


6. Many PM dolls do not have body tags.


7. PM dolls are noticeably shorter than Mattel.

If your doll has neck strings just untie them and tighten them so her head won't fall off|||The pre-Mattel dolls are better quality vinyl and their body tag should say Made in West Germany. You may need to remove the plastic tie, and put a new one on to tighten her head. They are worth more to collectors because of the better quality. Keep her out of the sun and in a controlled climate. Just wipe her down with a damp rag.Don't get her body wet.


It is hard to get Nellie cheap because she is retired and they didn't make as many of her as they did Samantha. Watch Craigslist and go to yard sales and thrift stores. Good luck.

How to treat a baby doll like a real baby?

For health we got some babies. Just dolls not think it over. For six weeks we have to carry it around like a baby. All of our teachers make sure we treat it like a real baby. But quick question, How do I treat it like it is real if it is just a doll?|||Lol.. OmG! I agree with Xanders mom.Change, feed, Oh yeah make sure you don't leave your doll in the car. Good Luck!|||Well, for one, don't drop or harm the doll in any way.





Don't forget to feed and change it..





And remember that a newborn ALWAYS has a reason to cry.

How do I make my doll stand up on its own?

I'm making a doll using fabric and fleece, but I want to make it stand on its own. The legs are skinny and long. Am I supposed to use a wire or is there no possible solution? And how would I shape the feet so that they can support the doll when standing?|||goto ehow.com|||Well, yes, either you build her with an internal armature or you will need to use external support. There are a lot of sites about doll construction and marionettes. Maybe with a bit of research you'll have the best idea for your project. Start here, for example:

How much is my porcelain doll worth?

I have a porcelain doll, made in china, limited edition with a certificate of authenticity on it that says 5,000 pieces made worldwide and #8 on the bottom of her foot. I don't know anything else about the doll. If anyone does please help me thank you.|||maybe a maker would help....


once you have a better model description search ebay or craigslist to see if any one else is selling the same doll. if that doesn't work try a search engine such as yahoo or google and query ' doll model price value' where obviously in the place of doll model you type in the name/manufacturer/brand of doll.


but just a hunch, since the porcelain doll is made in china where labor is very cheap and materials are of subpar build


it means the doll can't be worth much.|||Please do not think me rude, but your doll more than likely is not worth much more than what you originally paid for her. Dolls made earlier in France, Germany, Japan, and the U.S. are much more valuable than the newer dolls made in China. China dolls are mass produced and not hand made as the earlier dolls were.|||I don't know but try looking on google or collector books.|||It Depends How Old It Is And Where It Was Made Some Can Even Be $1,000,000 Or More.

Like a toy store. But I don't know, I want my room to look clean anyhow.





I was wondering where you put your doll collections?|||i used to collect dolls.


but now, i place them in a box under my bed.


but i have a suggestion. you might like it.


why not try building shelves on the walls and place them on the shelves.


that's what all toy stores do.


if you want them scattered, then perhaps have a sopt in your room just for your toys.


you may also relax at that corner..


well, i hope you like my suggestion.


bye,


Wendy=)|||I don't collect dolls but when we were getting ready to buy our house, a previous tenant had a shelf running along 3 walls of her bedroom, with Barbies in their boxes. She just used metal brackets, fastened to the studs, and also metal shelving, available at hardware stores. She put them up high so that she could still hang pictures and things on the walls.

i love that name.|||baby doll|||dolly is a great name|||The kid I take care of names her dolls after babies/younger kids that she knows. She has Alexander and Christiana (named for her half aunt and uncle *her grandfather's 3rd or 4th marriage*), as well as Shelby (named for the girl across the street). And she also has a really random doll named Dum Dum (not sure what was up with that one).





I remember when I named dolls, I always chose a name I wanted myself. I had Stephanie when I was 4, Amber when I was 7, Amanda when I was 8, etc. So she could go that route.





And then when my sister was naming things, we would always pick really random names. Like she had Fluffy the Bear of Perpetual Happiness and Creepy Baby (it was the most fitting name we could think of... The doll was seriously the creepiest thing ever. It had this laugh that made it sound like it was plotting your doom).





My friend named hers after he favorite TV characters/actors.





Anyways, I know this isnt a list, but I think naming a doll should be something creative that she does on her own or with the family. So these are more of suggestions to get you guys thinking.





*edit*


I just thought of when we named our flour sack babies in high school, I went with Michael Migel Alexander Adams because it was a combination of all the names my friends suggested, so you could do something random like that.

Has any one used Oxy10 to remove ballpoint ink from a baby doll face?

My daughter colored all over a rubber baby doll that use to be mine as a child. I have tried everything to get it off: hairspray, alcohol, nail polish remover, powder bleach, baking soda and water. I read online that if you take Oxy10 (acne treatment) and but it on the ink and put the doll under a light that it will remove the ink. Wondering if anyone has tried this or if anyone has another suggestion?|||I think Oxy10 might work to remove the color marks and did you try putting the doll in the washing machine as well??

What is the ratio to inches in a doll house?

I want to build a doll house and I need the specs to compare it to inches.|||standard "miniature" is 1" to 1' scale (1:12). That is considered typical dollhouse miniature scale. Most dollhouse furniture is found in this scale. There is also a smaller scale called half inch scale, which is 1:24. Furnishings are available, but they are limited.





If you want to scale for Barbie doll the scale is larger. Maybe the links in some of the other answers can help.|||depends on how big you want the doll house..


the avg is .. just good guess... 1 inch to each 2 foot for a med to large doll house... if you want is smaller... then 3 feet to the inch|||I am building one too. I took a barbie and measured her then add a cpl of inches for the ceiling height. All depends on what dolls your daughter is going to play with, well in my case.|||Have a look at my link.





Gives lots of info on standard scaling for dolls houses. But as already said does depend if you are going to use your own dolls.|||It depends on the size of the doll that will be used in the dollhouse.

American girl doll clothes are very well made and durable for play. They also fit Madame alexander or any other 18" dolls. I would compare prices with the actual website American Girl before you purchase any on ebay just to make sure you are getting a good deal. Some of the ebay sellers really mark things up. Also, you can find some really good deals in your area if you are willing to arrange looking at the clothes and pickup on Craig's List, which is now called searchtempest.
