## What it does

A sweep of light turns you into a vintage porcelain doll sitting in a dusty, candlelit attic. The rocking chair moves slowly as the doll turns its head and gives an eerie smile.

## From our test

We used a woman with long hair in a white shirt, and the clip faded her into an old porcelain doll in a lace dress, rocking in a wooden chair beside candles. The flames and chair kept moving through the final frames.

## Tips for the best photo

- Use a front-facing portrait with a neutral expression and your whole face visible.
- Pull hair back from your face if you can, since the doll look adds braids.
- Pick even lighting without strong shadows, so the doll look keeps your features.

## Ideas for using it

- A creator posting a spooky Halloween teaser on TikTok.
- A party host sending a creepy invitation clip to guests.
- A friend making a prank video for a haunted house night.

## FAQ

### Will I still look like myself?

The doll look keeps your face recognizable, but with pale skin and painted cheeks.

### Is it gory or violent?

No. It is more eerie than scary, with candlelight and slow movement.

### Do I need to write a prompt for Haunted Doll?

No. Haunted Doll is a ready-made effect: upload a photo and press Generate. The directions for the motion, camera and lighting are already built in.

### How long is the Haunted Doll video, and how long does it take?

Every effect makes a 5 second HD video that matches the shape of your photo, portrait or landscape. Most are ready in one to three minutes, and you can leave the page while it renders.

### Does the video have sound?

Yes. Each clip comes with matching ambient sound effects. It does not add music, so you can lay your own track over it in any editor.

### Can I use a photo of someone else?

Only photos of adults, of yourself or of people who agreed to it. Every upload goes through the same safety checks as the rest of PixelDojo.
