La Isla de las Munecas, more famously known as "The Island of Dolls", is located in the canals close to Mexico City. On the island lies a shrine dedicated to a young female child who passed away due to unknown circumstances. Well, that is what is said. Others say differently, a story of Don Julian. Julian was having a sermon on the streets of Mexico when he was mobbed by villagers. Thinking the villagers were being influenced by a negative force, he began to collect dolls to lock away the bad entities. Eventually, he left his family and moved onto the island for the last 50-or-so years of his life.
