If possible, please ask your guest if he has ever heard of or investigated Robert the doll, as the creepy little thing is alleged to have partaken in all sorts of mischievous misdoings. Housed at the Fort East Martello Museum is where Robert the doll now calls home.
 
I'm bumping up against the deadline, but if you could only investigate one location, which location would it be? And why?

And are the locations that you won't investigate?
