It’s really not what you need on the morning commute. The Northern Line’s scary enough tbh.

Two life size Victorian dolls were spotted taking the Tube and wandering around town freaking out commuters this morning.

No, it’s not the first sign of the apocalypse. The seriously creepy dolls, who were spotted playing with a toy train set at Hamleys and pushing an empty antique pram along Tube platforms, were actually promoting Derren Brown’s new psychological theme park ride, coming to Thorpe Park next year.

Of course.

The 13 minute ride, which opens in March 2016, promises to be the first ‘immersive psychological attraction’ designed to ‘manipulate the human mind’.



Brown said of this morning’s creepy stunt: ‘The theme of Victoriana is ever present in my work and you will see glimpses of this in my new attraction.’

‘I believe we are moving toward a future where theme park attractions not only give you a physical experience but also play with your mind and the concept of what is real,’ he added.

‘The Victorian twin dolls, who have popped up around London this week, are just a taster of what my new attraction has in store for visitors to Thorpe Park next spring.’

The twins are here all week.
