The Travel Channel recently showcased a special episode on the infamous curse of Robert the doll. Robert the doll is a one-of-a-kind antique doll that has gained notoriety for its alleged paranormal activity and the curse it carries. The doll currently resides in the Key West Art and Historical Society museum, where it is displayed for visitors to see. Robert the doll's curse dates back to the early 1900s when it was gifted to a young boy named Robert Eugene Otto. According to legend, the doll was originally given to Robert by a Bahamian servant who was skilled in black magic. It is believed that the servant placed a curse on the doll as revenge for mistreatment by the Otto family.
Where are all the ghoulish goods? I feel like I usually have a decent pile of new Halloween-y treats to review each year, but this time around I only have these Kit-Kats, and the Franken-cup Reeses. (Which are arguably just the same as normal Reese's anyway.) Other than these two, it's just a sea of seasonal repeats.
I feel like I usually have a decent pile of new Halloween-y treats to review each year, but this time around I only have these Kit-Kats, and the Franken-cup Reeses. I have always been a fan of marshmallow flavored things, like the chocolate marshmallow Oreos, Marshmallow Crispy Oreos, White Fudge Marshmallow Twinkies, Peeps Oreos, Mallo Cups.
It is believed that the servant placed a curse on the doll as revenge for mistreatment by the Otto family. Ever since the doll came into Robert's possession, strange events began occurring. Visitors to the Otto house claimed to hear giggling and footsteps coming from Robert's room, despite the fact that Robert himself was not known to leave his room.

Other brands may be lacking the spooky spirit, but Kit-Kat is picking up the slack! For fall 2020 they've released normal Kit-Kat bars in Halloween packaging, white-chocolate orange-colored bars, pumpkin pie flavored bars, glow in the dark wrappers, AND these Halloween-specific Witch's Brew ones. While most of them are just re-packagings/coloring of year-round goodies, I still appreciate the effort. Let's dig in!
Look at this packaging! We have bright colors, a cartoony witch illustration (that is giving me both modern and mid century modern vibes at the same time), a bubbling cauldron, and ghastly green candy. In person, the graphics aren't as punchy as they appear in their advertising and social media. The plastic bag is rather thin giving it a sad-sack-appearance, but the individually wrapped bars look great! Ideally I would love to see American Kit-Kat move onto a matte papery-finish bag similar to the ones found in Asia. I'm not sure if that is more recycling-friendly, but I would also love to see more of that and les plastic in the future.
That's if I am being nit-pick-y. Overall, I love it and will be hanging on to my packaging. I used to lean heavy into a black and orange color scheme for Halloween, but I have really come to appreciate the combination of slime-green and purple. I think I might frame a bunch of my hoarded Halloween wrappers, like this one, and use them as seasonal decor next year.
So not only is the candy green, but it is also a new flavor! The confectionary coating is supposed to taste like marshmallow, and I love marshmallows, but I am a little skeptical about this execution. Will this just taste like normal white chocolate?
Once opened, these look like they've seen better days. I am guessing the bag got a little warm in transit, so my bars are a little worse for wear. Will that stop me from eating them? No way!
The green candy bars smell sweet, vanilla'd, and similar to Rice Krispy treats, but more-so the pre-made ones you buy in the store than homemade ones. It's not all sunshine and roses though, there is a hint of what I can only describe as "Play-dough." But like, off-brand Play-dough. It's faint, and as sad as this is to admit, it's not terribly unappealing, just unexpected.
I took a bite, and I was really impressed. These may not taste like fresh, real, marshmallows, like Smashmallows, but these bars taste an awful lot like mar-bits and other tiny freeze-dried cereal marshmallows! (I actually think these taste specifically like the marshmallows found in Lucky Charms because there is a cereal-y taste thanks to the wafers.) I have always been a fan of marshmallow flavored things, like the chocolate marshmallow Oreos, Marshmallow Crispy Oreos, White Fudge Marshmallow Twinkies, Peeps Oreos, Mallo Cups. etc. so I am 100% into these!
I haven't liked a seasonal Kit-Kat bar this much since February's raspberry bars! These are so snackable I ate a few packages in one sitting, and other than normal Kit-Kat bars, I can't remember the last time I did that.
If you're not a fan of marshmallows, or marshmallow-breakfast cereals, you will not like these. I absolutely love them, and since mine are all ugly and melted, I don't need to feel obligated to share them. They're all for me!
Marshmallow lovers? Do yourself a favor and grab a bag or two. This might not be the most sensational flavor ever released, but it's well done, and delicious, and I will be very sad if it doesn't return in 2021. (When was the last time I said that about a limited edition product?)
As with the other limited edition Kit Kats, the flavor lies in the light-green-colored crème coating. The inside is standard Kit Kat fare.
Robert also allegedly moved on his own accord, changing positions within the home. The Otto family reported finding Robert in different rooms of the house, even though they had left him in one specific area. The doll's curse took a toll on Robert's life and the lives of those around him. Robert's parents would often hear their son speaking to the doll, as if engaged in a conversation. It was even rumored that Robert would blame the doll for his mischievous behavior. The curse seemed to follow Robert throughout his life, as he claimed that the doll would torment him even when he tried to escape its presence. Once Robert passed away, the doll was left in the attic of his childhood home. It wasn't until new owners moved in that the doll was rediscovered. The new owners, just like the Otto family before them, began to experience strange happenings as soon as they brought Robert into their home. They soon realized that the doll was the source of their troubles and promptly donated it to the museum, where it remains to this day. The Travel Channel's episode on the curse of Robert the doll shed light on the various accounts of strange occurrences surrounding the doll. Visitors who have encountered Robert at the museum have reported feeling intense emotions, sudden health issues, and even fainting spells. The museum has received countless letters from visitors apologizing to Robert for taking his picture without asking for permission, claiming that they experienced misfortune soon after their visit. The curse of Robert the doll has become a popular subject of fascination and has attracted paranormal enthusiasts from all over the world. While skeptics argue that the curse is nothing more than a series of coincidences, believers in the supernatural are convinced that Robert possesses an otherworldly power. Whether you believe in curses or not, there is no denying the mystique and intrigue surrounding Robert the doll. The Travel Channel's coverage of his curse has only added fuel to the fire, sparking even more interest in this eerie and fascinating tale..
