by The “Balcony of the Dolls” is an eerie landmark in central Caracas, the capital of Venezuela.
It consists of a large balcony lined with old doll heads that seem to follow people with their eyes as they pass by.
Located in the middle of Avenida Este 12, between Fuerzas Armadas and Sur 5, in a place known as “El Muerto” corner, is a two-storey building that has captured the imagination of both locals and visitors of the Venezuelan capital.
It’s the sort of thing that’s easy to miss if you simply walk by in a hurry without looking up, but if you’re the kind of person who likes to take in the sights, there’s no way to miss the hundreds of creepy doll heads looking back at you from above.
Stories and urban legends about the creepy balcony have been going around Caracas for years, but in reality, there’s nothing macabre or scary behind it.
According to RT, the balcony is the creation of local visual artist Etanís González , who owns the house and has turned part of it into a museum.
