Among the canals of Xochimilco, Mexico, lies a place as chilling as it is fascinating: the Island of the Dolls. A site shrouded in mystery, superstitions, and legends that has inspired artists like Tim Burton and Lady Gaga. In this video, we tell the story of Julián Santana, the man who started this macabre tradition, the paranormal legacy he left behind after his death, and how the island became an icon of horror and pop culture.
