Robert rocks! Just be nice and ask before you take his picture – you should be okay. Got great shots of him and his stuffed lion a couple months ago with no problems afterwards. Be sure to check out the Ghost Tour too.

Did you ask Robert permission to take his photo? In this pic he looks a little upset.

I just saw Robert a week ago today (8/12/09) and must say the experience was rather creepy but still extremely fascinating. It doesn’t help that the East Martello Towers are just about as scary as the doll but it adds to the ambiance. Robert didn’t do very much except stare at us from the confines of his glass box. All of us were too scared to take his picture though! We passed through the towers and came back to him to say goodbye- as we were reading the hundreds of apology and thank you notes, the lights in Robert’s section of the museum went out! It was for a brief moment and they quickly came on but it had 4 twenty-somethings holding onto each other! The lady working at the towers claimed they were on a timer…pretty GOOD timing!

See Robert if you have the chance- and be nice! It was a fun experience. I did end up losing my CDs and camera…maybe it was Robert or bad packing! Who knows!

robert the doll is so damn real.
you can think what you want but my friend and i have ESP, and when we went to the keys, we decided to test our abilities with him. skeptics will say that its mechanically operated and people monitor events in a control room but we know what happened..we talked to him and at one point he put his hand to the glass when we werent looking[we saw the handprint]at another moment we both had a gut feeling and the room got really cold, he moved his head, and our other friend who didnt believe in him took a pic without asking and insulted him and later when she walked back into the room, at that exact moment all the lights of the museum turned off[and to turn them back on it was a very complicated process]and then afterwards she almost choked on water and was taken to the hospital..it was all too real, especially if youre in touch with the paranormal, like us.
