Teddy bears have been a life-long fascination for many of us. Every kid has his own teddy bear to torture out of love, enthusiasm or just plain curiosity. 100 Teddy bears with skeletons in their closets is a courageous incursion into the unknown sides of fluffy toy cuteness.<\/p>\n

What if they were… mmm\u2026zombies?<\/b><\/p>\n

Someone actually thought about this before, someone like the English artist Phillip Blackman, who uses zombie special makeup to turn the adorable toys into creepy un-dead that will keep you awake at night. A teddy bear on the verge of dying, but with a last unfulfilled wish: to haunt you in the middle of the night.<\/p>\n

Blackman (I wonder if this is a coincidence\u2026) was inspired by his partner to come up with this idea: \u201cShe had a terrible cold at the time and we\u2019d been talking about a gift for a friend\u2019s baby. With a very stuffy nose \u2018teddy-bear\u2019 kept coming out as \u2018deady-bear\u2019, and we joked about zombie teddies that creep from under your bed at night to feast on your brains while you sleep.\u201d<\/p>\n

Each of the UndeadTeds \u2013 as they are called – takes in at least eight hours to make, not including the time it takes for glue, paint and varnish to dry. But thanks to strange reasons, they\u2019re selling like hot cakes! Find out more at the Undead Teds tumblr.<\/a><\/p>\n

Teddy Scares make sure you eat your veggies!<\/b><\/p>\n

Teddy Scares<\/a> are actually UndeadTed\u2019s remote relatives. They are mean, but at least walk with their organs inside their bodies. They each have personalized stories and come with a bunch of creepy warnings. For instance here\u2019s Redmonf Gore\u2019s biography: his last words were: \u201cTrust me, it won\u2019t hurt.\u201d His favorite place is: \u201cIn the shadows.\u201d I won\u2019t disclose further information about them; I\u2019ll live this pleasure to you. He also has some interesting creepy friends.<\/p>\n

Sinister Pictures of immortal teddies living among us<\/b><\/p>\n

It appears that human attachment for plush friends knows no bounds in some odd cases. And people choose to be immortalized holding their significant teddy bear, despite their being over 50 years old, not to mention the bear, which in many cases is much older than the owner. \u00a0The bears and their owners have endured each other for decades, and though all lead normal active lives, especially the bears, none are too forgetful to pass the time of day with their oldest friends. At least from time to time.<\/p>\n

According to Life Magazine, old bears are characterised by those who live with them as \u201cplacid,\u201d \u201cserene\u201d and \u201cradiating contentment.\u201d There\u2019s no doubt about the fact that all teddy bears are steadfast and loyal, yet the same cannot be said for their owners. Christopher Robin for instance, whose childhood bear inspired the creation of Winnie-the-Pooh simply got rid of him like old underwear. Pooh, who is over 50 years old, lives far from home in a glass case in an American publishing house. In 1987 Eeyore, Piglet, Tigger and Kanga, his best friends ever, were moved to The New York Public Library. They can still be visited in their downtown posh residence.<\/p>\n

How it all began<\/b><\/p>\n

The man behind this fluffy bedtime toy is none other than Theodore \u201cTeddy\u201d Roosevelt Jr. \u201cTeddy\u201d Roosevelt, Jr.,<\/p>\n

The story goes like this: on a hunting trip in 1902, the young president didn\u2019t want to shoot a black bear, despite the man\u2019s well-earned reputation as a hunter who had killed countless animals and birds for decades. Therefore a toymaker in New York learned of T.R.\u2019s merciful moment and created a toy bear \u2014 a \u201cteddy bear.\u201d The bear was an immediate hit, and for the past century has remained the symbol of childhood.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
