AN AIRLINE passenger had the creepiest flight of her life — after being forced to sit next to a bizarre lifelike doll

Sara Novic detailed the strange scene on Twitter after she ended up plonked next to the fellow flyers’ toy, reportsThe Sun.

And just when she thought the strange episode was over, she ended up sitting next to the doll again on the second leg of her journey from Cincinnati to New York.

The story got even stranger when Sara revealed the seat had been bought for the doll using fake passport details.

The ticket had been bought under the name Barbara and flight attendants rushed around to find out who the missing passenger was.

Good news: no person in the middle seat next to me.

Bad news: terrifying baby doll that belongs to the man in the window seat next to me. — Sara Nović (@NovicSara) September 23, 2016

The flight attendant is trying to explain to him why he shouldn't put the doll's name on the ticket next time he buys her one. — Sara Nović (@NovicSara) September 23, 2016

IT'S NOT A REAL PERSON. — Sara Nović (@NovicSara) September 23, 2016

Some updates. The man is also traveling with an entire bunch of bananas as a snack. — Sara Nović (@NovicSara) September 23, 2016

It was only later they discovered that Barbara was in fact the doll and scolded the anonymous man for the ploy.

In a hilarious series of tweets, Sara wrote: “Good news — no person in the middle seat next to me.

“Bad news — terrifying baby doll that belongs to the man in the window seat next to me.”

Later on she added: “IT’S NOT A REAL PERSON”

And along with some pictures of the doll, she continued: “Some updates.

“The man is also travelling with an entire bunch of bananas as a snack.

“He is going to Cincinnati to see the giant Noah’s ark replica built to spec, and the creation museum.

“As a matter of course.”

I'm on her right side this time. In case you need a better view. pic.twitter.com/pXnO0KSIux — Sara Nović (@NovicSara) September 23, 2016

PS the doll's name is Barbara — Sara Nović (@NovicSara) September 23, 2016

In closing, whatever the function of this doll, not judging. That she had an evil face and her own ticket I stand by as strange. — Sara Nović (@NovicSara) September 23, 2016

When Sara boarded a second jet during her journey she thought she’d seen the back of the doll.

But to her dismay Barbara was again right next to her during the second flight.

Later, she joked: “On the bright side, Barbara was a very well-behaved baby.

“Just kidding — this has been terrible.

“In closing, whatever the function of this doll, not judging.

“That she had an evil face and her own ticket I stand by as strange.”
