This week we introduce you to One Strange Thing, a podcast that brings you some of the oddest stories from America's regional newspaper archives. And these tales all have something in common: they are entirely true, and feature elements that can't be explained by logic alone. In this preview, they explore how a mannequin with human hair became a doll, and lifelong companion and/or scapegoat, for an eccentric Floridian artist. The rest is (haunted? possessed?) history, and it’s exactly as unsettling as you might guess. And then some.
