Don Mancini has always been credited as the genius behind the Child's Play movies, and while that is undoubtedly true, it seems as though there could have been a glaring source of inspiration for him that has stared oblivious Chucky fans in the face for decades. That's right, there has been speculation from numerous parties that Mancini possibly pulled from the infamous urban legend surrounding Robert the Doll.
After growing up, Eugene moved away for school and left Robert in the dust back home where he probably continued to be a headache. After years of being away, Eugene's parents passed away and he moved back home where he could finally be back in the company of his beloved childhood toy. In what must have been a surprise for Eugene, Robert the Doll became a mischievous nuisance in his owner's life.
Is 'Child's Play' Actually Inspired by Robert the Doll? The similarities between Robert the Doll's story and the events in Child's Play are wildly similar. In both stories, a young child is gifted a doll that they become totally enamored with. The two grow close and, apparently, converse with each other when no one is around. Weird things happen around the household that the two live in though, and things begin to look more and more malicious with time.
