Creepy Doll Contest 2025 | History Center of Olmsted County

Creepy Dolls: Loose in the Vaults Opening Reception (Adults Only 21+)

In celebration of their 7th year in the spotlight, the Creepy Dolls of the History Center of Olmsted County are becoming amateur curators for the month of October. WE ARE SETTING THEM LOOSE IN OUR VAULTS! They are tasked with pulling curious objects from our collection of artifacts, researching and writing about them, and possibly getting into some mayhem along the way.

Be the first to witness the Doll’s amazing work! The exhibition reception and reveal will take place on Friday October 10, from 7-9 pm, and is adults only. There will be a cash bar, and we will be joined that evening by our favorite local podcast duo Kelley and Emily from their podcast Wining about Herstory, where they will be providing some snarky and scary commentary for those brave enough to enter. Come and enjoy the show, get a little frightened perhaps, vote on your favorite doll, and maybe learn a thing or two.

Admission is $5 for members, $8 for non-members if purchased in advance on our website, or $10 at the door.
