He Couldn’t Adopt a Child, so He Made His Own Human Sized Dolls
Anatoly Moskvin and his house of unusual dolls
Anatoly Yujevich Moskvin went through a traumatic event as a child, and his psychological state was never the same. The event was the first of a whole series of equally awful experiences.
His arms, legs, and torso were covered in bruises. Anatoly had been violently raped by an older man on his way to school.
When Anatoly was twelve, he went on a school recycling collection trip to a local village. Then he found himself in the company of a group of cult men. The men forced him to attend a funeral of an 11-year-old girl who had died from accidental electrocution whilst she was having a bath.
The mother of the dead girl then insisted that Anatoly should kiss her dead daughter.
Then, the mother pushed teary Anatoly down to their dead daughter’s head and held it there until he kissed her on the forehead three times. Then the dead girl’s mother rewarded Anatoly with an apple.
Afterward, she took out two brass rings from her pocket, gave one to Anatoly, and placed the other one on her dead daughter’s finger. She looked at Anatoly and declared that the two of them were now married. Then the mother gave Anatoly money and more fruit.
