There are multiple good ones, but 1.2 looks the best to me.

Torn between Annabelle for being classic and 1.7 for being pure Nightmare Fuel.

1.7 is very scary, and looks the most like a doll.

1.2 borders on JAFAAC for someone not getting the creepiness from the looks.
Time is subjective.

I think 1.7 is the best out of the bunch.
Macron's notes
I like the Tattletail one for the contrast between Mama Tattletail and the regular Tattletail.
As a side note, wouldn't the possessed dolls count for Perverse Puppet instead?

Ah, yeah. I've misread and thought the trope was something else.
1.7 > 1.2 > I don't feel like ranking the rest
A lot of these get the "creepy" part right, but not the "doll" part. Also, this is going to have a kickass Image Links page.

I'd like to apologize for all this.

Speaking of Image Links, the sole image from ImageLinks.Creepy Doll is this doll from Alice, Sweet Alice. I still prefer 1.7 though. Just mentioning this since it exists.
Yeah. 1.7 comes the closest in my vision of this trope.
Original the Signature. Do not steal.
1.19 is on The Polar Express, FWIW.
I'm down with 1.7. I like that it has two examples, neither of which are that in-your-face about being nightmarish, both look like dolls, and add extra creepiness with the sewing materials..
Hi
1.7 FTW

1.7.
Hi
1.7's in and tagged, and I put 1.1, 1.2, 1.4, 1.9, 1.16, and 1.20 on the Image Links page. Caption?
Old pic:
On what merit did you decide which ones to put on image links? I think practically all of them could qualify there.
Hi
They were the ones that were both the most obviously doll-like and the most blatantly creepy to me.

Would some of the rest fit ImageLinks.Perverse Puppet?

This the flavor text from the card: "A child's porcelain doll went missing one night, as did a pair of kitchen shears and the town magistrate."
And a caption idea: "The report says she's child safety compliant, but why is there blood on it?"
I feel pretty much any doll in fiction would be creepier than the current, which is just a silly ad. So, ironically to the text on it, I'm picking up "whatever I can think of within an hour".
Some of these surely would make a good grid, while others can go to the ImageLinks. More additions are welcome.
Some of these may be overlapping with Perverse Puppet, Demonic Dummy or character profiles.
