Bought a $30 'haunted doll' off FB Marketplace, my cat won't go near it now

I figured it was just a weirdo trying to offload a creepy toy, but 2 weeks later my cat still hisses at the corner where I put it. Is my house just cursed or has anyone else's pet reacted like this to a random find?

Did she react to it before it got to that corner, or was the hissing from the moment you brought it in?

Did you try moving it to a different room to see if she reacts the same way? Cats pick up on weird vibes sometimes, and honestly, a $30 doll with that kind of energy sounds like a bad deal. I once got a thrift store painting that made my dog growl at the wall for a week, so I get it. Maybe just stick it in a closet or donate it, because your cat is probably telling you something. Trust the hiss, it knows more than you do.
