Asda shoppers 'terrified' of 'creepy' £18 toy dolls

Some Asda shoppers have been left "disturbed" after setting their eyes on a range of Halloween dolls on offer in stores.

The supermarket giant sells everything from groceries to clothes, toys and homeware, and regularly takes to social media to showcase items from its ranges. On Sunday, Asda shared a video of its "creepy" Halloween dolls, and a lot of customers clearly found them to be too scary.

The decorations, which cost £18, feature a doll riding on a rocking horse, which sounds pretty harmless until you see how it looks. Each item is animated, and they come complete with blackened, bloody eyes, and a removable head.

The dolls play horror movie style music as they rock, too. Captioning the post on Instagram, Asda said: "Spook you later. The Halloween spirit is strong with these ones. Have you spotted them? Head in store for your last minute treats, tricks and ghoulish goodies."

Taking to the comments section, one shopper said: "Nah I am disturbed", while a second said: "Oh hell no Asda this is terrifying".

A third said: "Terrible, just terrible", while a fourth added: "Yeah there's no way I'd have these in my house". A fifth said: "I have one I called her Boo. My nieces are terrified of her".
