Movie-goers terrified after man brings ventriloquist dummy to theater X: MrSloaneRangerA man who brought a ventriloquist dummy to the cinemas has left the internet swearing they would have \u201cinstantly\u201d bailed. Going with a friend or date to the movies can be a lot more fun than riding solo, however, those around you might not agree if your company happens to be a ventriloquist dummy. The puppets, alongside other dolls, have earned a terrifying reputation over the years thanks to horror films and their often \u201ccreepy\u201d appearance. Nonetheless, one man was not deterred by this and brought a ventriloquist doll named Raymond to the movies via a suitcase, leaving onlookers \u2018concerned\u2019. Posting about the experience, X user Florian Bettencourt Twombly said Raymond was \u2018assembled\u2019 in his own seat (which had allegedly been paid for) with a box of popcorn and introduced to movie-goers. While Florian described the man accompanying Raymond as \u201cfunny and charming\u201d, he also described the situation as \u201cunhinged\u201d and revealed that Raymond was even made to \u201ctalk\u201d. Many responded to the post by stating they would \u201cinstantly walk out\u201d if they found themselves in Florian\u2019s position. \u201cThere is zero chance I\u2019d still be sitting next to Raymond when the lights dim,\u201d one person wrote. Another said that simply \u201creading\u201d Florian\u2019s post left them feeling \u201ccursed\u201d as they expected the picture of Raymond to \u201cturn its head\u201d. There were those, however, who supported Raymond\u2019s attendance: \u201cMind your business and let the man and his cursed Victorian doll enjoy the film.\u201d In response to one commenter who was unimpressed that a photo of Raymond was taken and shared online, Florian said, \u201cHe was taking pictures as well and encouraging it. You can\u2019t bring out a ventriloquist at the cinema, give it popcorn, and start taking photos of it and not expect others to do the same.\u201d Florian said the man behind Raymond had \u201ceven asked us to tag him\u201d but failed to give movie-goers his handle before the movie concluded.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
