Labor Day of 1974 should have been an exciting one for the Reker family. They had just celebrated a family reunion the day before and the holiday was spent with family at home as well as in the preparation of going back to school the next day. It was for the purpose of buying additional items for school that 15-year-old Mary Reker (with younger sister, 12-year-old Susie tagging along) went shopping. It was a trip from which the sisters would never return.

Before the Hollywood dolls that haunt our dreams, there was one (not so) quietly closed in an attic in a Key West home causing quite a stir for anyone with whom he came into contact. As his notoriety has grown and with his placement in a permanent museum display, the reach of that contact has grown tremendously, as has the number of letters he receives from people pleading with him to release them from whatever curse he has placed upon them. This episode is the history of Robert the doll.
