Image: AI-generated (Midjourney) Galentine, who lives in Connecticut, gained a fascination with the paranormal and the macabre at a young age and has spent many years growing a sizable collection of unnerving objects.

"I have deeply personal pieces that feel like they have a soul," she said. "It's not driven by value - each piece came from a person who lived and it represented them as a person."

Such pieces include bags of human teeth, cursed dolls, used coffins and toe tags from morgues.

"There's so much personal history from people who lived normal lives that have essentially been wiped from history," she said. "The only way they can be remembered is by saving these things."Galentine's unusual collection has certainly proved popular as she now has over 800,000 followers on TikTok and many more across various other social media platforms.

"We have an allegedly haunted wheelchair from a hospital," she said. "The person who gave it to me didn't want it in their house."

"I bought a memorial piece for a baby who died in 1906, for $8 at an auction."

"I also have a chain of human hair from a guy who was in prison for murder - he made the chain from his victim's wife's hair."
