“Unveiling the Horror: YouTube Star’s ‘Creepy’ Puppet Haunts New Owner in Terrifying Surprise!”
Have you ever bought something that looked radically different from what you saw in the pictures? It’s a gamble we often take when shopping online— but when it comes to a ‘creepy’ puppet from a 2005 music video, “creepy” might be the understatement of the year! Picture this: Interpol’s eerie yet captivating music video for “Evil” featured a life-sized puppet that met a tragic fate— a car crash that led to its bizarre dance on an operating table. Fast forward to 2014, and the puppet has made its way into an online auction, only to emerge battered, forgotten, and in such poor condition that no bids were placed! The story doesn’t end there, though; this puppet, affectionately dubbed “Norman,” has sparked a cult following, leading to a GoFundMe campaign aimed at restoring it to its former glory. So, what happens when a beloved puppet goes from star to storage shed? Grab your popcorn and get ready for a wild ride! LEARN MORE.
A man who bought a ‘creepy’ puppet from a famous music video was left horrified because of how different it looked.
You might be old enough to remember when American rock band Interpol dropped the music video for their song ‘Evil’ back in 2005.
In the video, a life-sized puppet can be seen in hospital after being involved in a car crash – bear with me here.
As human doctors examine the puppet, it randomly breaks into a dance on the operating table, which makes the whole thing even more weird.
Now, in 2014, the puppet has resurfaced in an online auction, and it was listed as the ‘animatronic creepy ghoul puppet from music video’.
Sadly for fans, it had deteriorated so much that not a single bid was placed.

Some years later, the puppet gained a cult following and was named ‘Norman’, after John Kolbek acquired it from another online auction.
The state it was in, however, proved to be too much of a shock, as Kolbek did a box opening online.
In 2021, he initiated a GoFundMe campaign called ‘Let’s save Norman!’ to raise money for a restoration process.
“Remember the music video Evil from 2004? Sure, we all do! That lovable (sometimes creepy) puppet that the fans grew to love and call ‘Norman?'” he wrote.
“Well, he’s had a rough 17 years. Being passed around as a Halloween ornament, to ending up in someone’s storage shed.

“The good news is, he’s found a new caring home. the bad news is, he’s pretty messed up.
“BUT with your help, and the help of Lunas Puppets, we can fully restore him back to his former glory!”
A year later, the page raised $3,145, and the GoFundMe was disabled.
In the comments, one woman who donated said: “I donated because I saw the video and liked it, and somehow stumbled into this little rabbit hole, where Norman was lost and found again, and I honestly want to see more of him in the future; see how his story develops after the wreck in the Evil Music Video.”
Another added: “I’d love to see Norman back in his original state. Interpol is my favourite band so this little guy means a lot to me. Good luck!”
Someone who donated a whopping $352 said: “I donated because… that’s what heroes do! You can be a hero too! Just donate a buck or two!”
