A Texas mum has opened up about her daughter's "haunted" doll which keeps reappearing despite being disposed of.

The Elsa doll from children's film Frozen was given as a Christmas present to Emily Madonia's daughter in 2013, and freaked out the family with its ability to speak both English and Spanish, according to click2Houston.com.

"For two years it did that in English," Madonia told the website, referring to the doll belting out hit song Let It Go after a button on the necklace is pushed.

"In 2015, it started doing it, alternating between Spanish and English. There wasn't a button that changed these, it was just random."

Madonia said the doll also continued to operate randomly - speaking and singing - while it was switched off.

On top of that, the doll managed to make its way back home - despite being thrown out by family members.

The mother also revealed she had not changed the battery since her daughter owned the toy.

The family was worried about the Disney princess's behaviour and, after tossing it in the garbage, were surprised to have it return weeks later inside their home.

"The kids insisted they didn't put it there, and I believed them because they wouldn't have dug through the garbage outside," Madonia explained.

According to a January 10 Facebook post by the mother, the doll has returned once again - but is only speaking Spanish.

"Ok guys, seriously, we need help," Madonia began the post, which included a photo of the blonde doll.

"To recap for those of you who have not been following our Elsa doll saga, Mat threw it away weeks ago and then we found it inside a wooden bench," she said.

The family was so "weirded out" by the toy, they wrapped it up repeatedly in garbage bags and made sure "it was collected on garbage day".

The concerned mother then explained she and her children "went out of town and forgot about it."

However, the family were soon given a stark reminder.

"Today Aurélia says, 'Mum, I saw the Elsa doll again in the backyard'," Madonia shared.

"HELP US GET RID OF THIS HAUNTED DOLL."

Same doll

Although there could be a chance the doll is a different one, given several are made in the US, Madonia maintains it is the same doll - based on the markings her daughter made on Elsa.

"Most logical thinkers believe it's a prank, but I don't understand how or when it was done, especially because the garbage truck had taken it away," she said.

Shortly after, she said she aimed to rid her family of the doll by sending it to a friend, "without a return address".

On January 14, Madonia took to Facebook to let followers know the doll is well and truly out of the family home.

"My friend Chris Hogan received the doll today. 1500 miles from here," she said.

"He's at work now but I asked him to check it for the marker that my daughter coloured on it when he gets home, so we can make sure it's the same one! Yes, I'm unreasonably paranoid now," she said.

"Both times the doll reappeared two weeks later (or I should say, we found her two weeks later, but hard to tell how long she was there) so I'm curious how it will go from here. That's all I got for now."

Should Elsa return, Madonia told click2Houston.com, "I might have to open my mind to some of the more supernatural solutions."
