The curse of the infamous haunted doll, Robert, is the subject of this two-hour-long documentary.

However, this added drama does make the documentary a very entertaining watch for any fan of the paranormal. It's a more interesting story than many supernatural movies and provides a fascinating insight into the lives of those who believe they have been cursed by the doll.
