Bean Shanine, an eccentric artist from
the United States makes the most bizarre zombie-vampire dolls. Her
creations are truly frightful for any grown-up, but these reborn dolls,
as Bean likes to call them, appear to have an enormous success. Check
out the living-dead stories of these weird dolls and see more picture of
these gruesome zombie dolls right here.
Bean Shanine is a 32-year-old artist who
appears to make a living out of the undead… This eccentric artist spends
up to eight hours per day creating, designing and basically bringing to
life these fearsome dolls, which would essentially scare the living
daylights out of everyone… We have it on very high authority that even
Sharon Osborn called these dolls “slightly disturbing”. When it comes to
disturbing, she should know a thing or two about it… since she’s been
living with Ozzie for a long time…
The scariest part about these zombie-vampire
baby dolls is the fact that they look very much alive… If you take just
a shallow look at the pictures, you’d be tempted to think that you’re
looking at a real baby, and at an extremely good Halloween costume…
when, in fact, it’s just one of Bean’s zombie-reborn dolls.
The artist puts a lot of time and effort
into making these odd little monsters. Each doll has to be painted with
30 layers of paint in order to get this realistic look. After each coat
of paint was added, the vampire-zombie doll needs to be baked so that
the special paint can settle in. When the painting process is finished,
the doll is assembled and then the hair is rooted strain by strain so
that the life-like look is preserved.
Adding the hair may take up to eight
hours, and painting the hair another six hours… You can all imagine that
the supplies needed for creating these little monster dolls are pretty
expensive, so it’s now easy to understand why the starting price for
such a creepy creation is 650 US dollars. Some collectors even pay up to
1500 dollars for one doll.
These dolls are not recommended as
play-toys, but rather as collectible assets. So far, Bean has done 50
such dolls, and she intends to “keep calm and carry on”.
When asked what her own children think about the zombie-dolls, the artist declared that:
My four-year-old thinks they’re cool – most kids these days think zombies are awesome… but with a mum who has pink hair and tattoos they can handle some dolls
