Kickstarter for Jessica Arellano's Phobia Friends Horror Dolls: From Jessica Arellano: "Hi, there! My name is Jessica, and I am the creator of Phobia Friends. I love all things scary and designing and creating horror dolls. Each doll is first sketched as a rough draft on paper, then handcrafted from wood and brought to life. Given the chance of successful funding through this Kickstarter, I can afford to launch an online store filled with even more scary friends.

  • Each doll's head measures 2 inches, about 4 inches tall in total.
  • Some dolls have embellishments such as string, fabric, hair, metal, paper mache, wood burning, stone beads, and even fake blood.
  • All dolls come with a screw eye pin and jute string, ready to hang.
  • Between drilling, sanding, painting, and drying, each doll takes several hours to make.
  • Each doll is primed prior to painting and then sealed with a gloss upon completion to ensure quality and longevity."

    About the Author - Tamika Jones

    Tamika hails from North Beach, Maryland, a tiny town inches from the Chesapeake Bay.She knew she wanted to be an actor after reciting a soliloquy by Sojourner Truth in front of her entire fifth grade class. Since then, she's appeared in over 20 film and television projects. In addition to acting, Tamika is the Indie Spotlight manager for Daily Dead, where she brings readers news on independent horror projects every weekend.

    The first horror film Tamika watched was Child's Play. Being eight years old at the time, she remembers being so scared when Chucky came to life that she projectile vomited. It's tough for her to choose only one movie as her favorite horror film, so she picked two: Nosferatu and The Stepford Wives (1975).
