American Pickers’ Mike Wolfe sparks ‘nightmare’ fears over ‘creepy’ antique find

American Pickers star Mike Wolfe shared a post on social media that showed he was very much in the holiday spirit, but some fans couldn’t help but be terrified.

Picker Mike Wolfe gave his fans a bit of a fright with his latest antique discovery.

The American Pickers star recently shared a photo on Instagram where he’s seen holding a Santa Claus doll that doesn’t quite resemble the traditional image of Saint Nick.

Instead the doll, with its overly rosy cheeks, bore a slight resemblance to the infamous horror movie doll Annabelle.

“Leave it to @mikewolfeamericanpicker to have a vintage Santa to decorate with this holiday season! Don’t forget, 25% off both in-store and online!” Mike penned in the caption of the post.

Many followers couldn’t resist commenting on the eerie appearance of the worn-out doll.

“Thanks for the future nightmares @antiquearchaeology! That damn doll would even make Chucky run!” one user wrote.

Another added, “Looking good, Mike, but that Santa is creepy.”

A third chimed in, “I’d put him right back where I found him scary dude (Santa not Mike),” with a fourth admitting: “He’s really cool looking, but I’m afraid he might give me nightmares! (the doll, not you Mike)!”

Another fan echoed: “I’d put him right back where I found him, scary dude (Santa, not Mike).”
