Dolls Kill Witchh is a brand that has gained significant popularity in recent years. The brand is known for its edgy and alternative fashion styles, catering to those who want to express their individuality and rebellion. But what sets Dolls Kill Witchh apart from other alternative fashion brands is its strong emphasis on witchcraft and embracing the mystical and occult. The brand's name itself, Dolls Kill Witchh, suggests a combination of dolls, which are often associated with beauty and innocence, and witchcraft, which is often associated with darkness and mysticism. This juxtaposition of seemingly contradictory elements is a key aspect of the brand's aesthetic, and it resonates with a generation that values non-conformity and embracing one's true self, no matter how unconventional. Dolls Kill Witchh incorporates various elements of witchcraft and the occult into its designs.

Lady, the only living Baylor University mascot, soon may move into a retirement home.

Her age of almost 21 puts her in a similar camp as a human pushing 90 years old, and Baylor wants her spending her golden years in style: napping, eating a well-balanced diet, receiving great medical care and climbing when the mood strikes her.

Frankly, that is the life she leads now at the Bill and Eva Williams Bear Habitat just off South Fifth Street on campus. A visitor early Wednesday afternoon would have witnessed Lady in full nap mode, lying on grass, direct sun slowly giving way to lengthening shadows, Waco Creek gurgling nearby.

Slowly, her big head roused, and she seemingly sneaked a peek at her surroundings, including the student standing behind wrought-iron railing.

“Oh, yeah, between noon and 4 o’clock, she’s chilling,” the fan said.

A Century of Sic ’Em: Celebrating 100 years as Baylor Bears

One hundred years ago this summer, Baylor was without a mascot. Our sports teams were occasionally called the Bulldogs or the Baptists in newspaper accounts, but they had no official nickname. By the fall of 1914, Baylor students were ready for that to change. On Oct. 2, 1914, a contest was proposed to come up with a mascot “around which to wreathe the sentiment of the school in poems and songs and yells, and in college customs which add so much to college life.” Little did former student George Baines Rosborough (great-grandson of former Baylor president George W. Baines) know when he uttered those words and offered a $5 gold piece as a prize that we’d be throwing up a “sic ’em” generations later to show our enthusiasm for that contest’s winner. [READ “The Bears,” a detailed history of the Baylor mascot, from the Spring 2014 issue of Baylor Magazine] Students voted on nearly 24 entries after the contest’s December deadline, and the overwhelming winner was “Bear,” suggested by San Antonio freshman Doyle Thrailkill. Bear earned more than half of the 406 votes, easily beating the second most popular suggestion, the buffalo. Three years later, Baylor would receive its first live mascot, which appeared at a game for the first time on Nov. 10, 1917, against Texas A&M at the Cotton Palace Grounds. Live bears have been a staple of the Baylor experience since then, appearing not only at games, but also living in local zoos, pens and the bear pit. In the earliest days, they were occasionally even kept chained to trees on campus. Thankfully, the Bill & Eva Williams Bear Habitat represents quite an upgrade from those times. Joy and Lady are, of course, the latest in a long line of live mascots, and they’ll enjoy the 100th anniversary attention when fans come to campus to cheer on their football-playing counterparts at McLane Stadium. A lot has changed at Baylor in the last 100 years (for that matter, a lot has changed at Baylor in the last few years), but one thing has remained constant for nearly a century now — rather than the Baptists or the Buffaloes or the Bulldogs, we all are united in cheering on, and calling ourselves, the Bears. Sic ’em, Bears!

Why is baylor mascot a bear

The following are excerpts from the book:

Here Come the Bears
The Story of the Baylor University Mascots
Author: Eugene W. Baker
(1996)

This book details some but not all of the suffering of the Baylor bears over the decades of the bear mascot program. Incredibly, the book was written by a Baylor supporter! We believe this book demonstrates the mindset of supporters of Baylor's bear mascot program, and reveals the true role of the bears -- as objects of entertainment and servitude.

On one occasion, while tied up, Betty Co-Ed decided to climb and explore the tree. In the attempt she became entangled in the rope and fell from the tree.

The rope tightened around her neck and began to choke her. Her sounds and scuffling attracted the attention of two young men who rushed to her aid. With some difficulty they eventually freed her from her predicament.

Instead of being grateful to the men who released her, she charged them both. One of the men, A.W. Dub Norton tried to kick Betty Co-Ed, who though hurt was still agile enough to bite the end of his shoe off. University officials soon decided that it was unsafe to keep the bear on campus and persuaded Baylor benefactor M.P. Daniel to allow Betty Co-Ed to live on his property in Liberty, Texas. She remained there for some time but eventually broke loose and was killed by a farmer.

Josephine would give birth to two cubs in January 1949. Unfortunately, one would be destroyed by Big Joe at birth.

The other, which was named Little Princess, would live only a few hours in spite of heroic efforts by local veterinarians.

Her death was attributed to the injuries she received during a fight between Josephine and big Joe. Baylor Chambermen buried the infant bear in a specially made coffin and placed a head marker on the grave which read, "Sleep Little Princess."

Big Joe and Josephine would produce another pair of cubs the following year. Named Barney and Bailey, they would quickly become the darlings of the campus. In 1951 Josephine would become the mother of triplets, none of which would survive.

It would be several more years before any of Josephine's other offspring would live more than a few hours, but in 1959 she would give birth to Rusty and Dusty.

While returning in a driving rainstorm, the wooden trailer in which Chita was riding came loose causing the car that was pulling it to overturn. Chita's trailer then struck an oncoming vehicle. Luckily no one was injured, but Chita suffered a broken leg.

Bailey had died in a tree climbing accident.

In the early morning hours on Friday, November 10 (1961), University of Texas students raided the Bear Pit and attempted to kidnap Ginger. As they were pulling her across the moat the bear and a student got tangled in the same rope with each lashing out against the other for protection. In fear for his life, the student hit Ginger on the head with a wrench and killed her.

In October 1969, after having been at Baylor about three months and shortly after his first and only performance at a football game, Bruno was found dead hanging from a tree. There were rumors that some students had wrapped the bear's chain around his neck, perhaps as a prank, and that this had caused his death.

During a filming of a local television show at the Bear Plaza, Judge the 9-year-old 625-pound pit bear, was lured from a shady area with a Dr Pepper. Chuck was then placed next to him. Suddenly Judge, evidently not wanting to share the drink, attacked the 55-pound cub. Trainers used every means available to separate the animals, but Judge was too powerful and Chuck was mortally wounded.

Eyewitness accounts of one Baylor "trainer's" abuse

- September 4, 2002
During the construction of the Black Bear Habitat here at Austin Zoo, Brandon Adley, the Baylor Bear "Handler" made a visit to the construction site with "Bobby." This visit was to show Bobby his new home. Brandon also brought Bobby to Austin Zoo to move in permanently and to give me a few bear handling pointers. From what I saw and heard, it was most likely the last times Bobby had unprotected contact with humans. Bobby who was now over two years old, was often annoyed with Brandon, who on several occasions resorted to kicking Bobby in the testicles and pulling the chain around his neck to control him. During this time I also witnessed Brandon wielding and striking Bobby with a pair of "nunchucks." These are martial arts weapons consisting of two sticks of wood held together with a length of chain. Brandon would hold one stick and flick the other up and at Bobby, again hitting him in the testicles. - Jim Carroccio / Austin Zoo Habitat Manager

In May of 1996 I saw Brandon Adley kick Bobby the Baylor bear in the testicles as a means of controlling Bobby. - Terry Polk

Shot, Beaten, Beheaded and Skinned -- The Horrific Case of Queso the Cat

ANIMAL PEOPLE
May 2002

Hangin' judge Roy Bean "justice" prevails in Texas for feral cats

WACO, Texas--Circa 1883, Val Verde County justice of the peace Roy Bean, "The Law West of the Pecos," ruled at one of the most infamous trials in U.S. history that "There ain't no law in the state of Texas against killing a Chinaman."

That verdict was recalled on March 19 in Waco when a McLennan County jury decided that there is no law in the state of Texas against killing a feral cat, no matter how it is done.

The three-man, three-woman jury deliberated for just 55 minutes before finding former Baylor University pitcher Derek Brehm, 21, innocent of misdemeanor cruelty for admittedly shooting a cat named Queso with a pellet gun on the patio of a Taco Cabana restaurant in March 2001, battering the cat with a golf club, and then decapitating him, skinning his head.

Defense attorney Ross Hunt convinced the jury that the Texas anti-cruelty statute does not apply to feral cats because it defines "animal" as a domesticated or captured creature, to avoid application to hunters and trappers.

Hunt argued that Taco Cabana night manager Teresa Jones had not domesticated or captured Queso, although she did feed and name him.

Hunt also asserted that Queso was not tortured because, Hunt claimed, Queso must have been dead after he was shot, even though Jones said Queso was still alive when Brehm and former Baylor outfielder Clint Bowers, 22, drove him away to hit him with the golf club--to make sure he was dead, again by their own admission.

After Brehm was acquitted, prosecutor Crawford Long dropped cruelty charges against Bowers, since the evidence against him was the same.

Brehm and Bowers were both suspended from the Baylor baseball team for eight games. Brehm was dropped from the baseball team after a September 2001 arrest for drunk driving. He lost his scholarship to attend Baylor as result of that offense, did 50 hours of community service at the Waco animal shelter for the drunk driving charge, and then transferred to the University of Texas at Arlington. Bowers is still attending Baylor, but is no longer playing baseball.

Dallas attorney and Animal Legal Defense Fund president Robert "Skip" Trimble told reporters that the Queso case exemplifies the need to update and improve the Texas cruelty statute.

Baylor President throws dog out 3rd story window

Even before the Baylor live mascot program began, Baylor seemed to be a place where cruel people felt they could act out their character defects. One such story included at Baylor's website involves one of its presidents, Oscar Henry Cooper, who was president from 1899 to 1902. Cooper was quite a piece of work, as the following paragraphs from the Baylor site demonstrates:

According to J. M. Dawson, a student at the time, "some prankish students sneaked a howling dog into the small upstairs chapel on the lofty third floor of Main. When the perverse little animal disturbed the worship the president became enraged. He (Cooper) leaped down from the platform, seized the dog and hurled it through a window to the ground below. The act appalled everybody, because it showed a lack of control deemed inexcusable, although under most exasperating circumstances."

No mention of the obvious and egregious cruelty; most Baylor people were appalled at Cooper's "lack of control." There is no mention of what happened to Cooper's victim, labeled as "perverse" and "exasperating." The students involved were merely "prankish."

Interestingly, the article continues with the following:

Cooper apologized for his rash action, but according to Dawson "a gifted pugnacious youngster named J. Frank Norris led a sensational student uprising against him." The final result was the tendering of his resignation at a called meeting of the trustees.

We hope that caring and sensitive students at Baylor will once again take a stand against abuse, and will stop the abuse of the Baylor bears. As Mr. Norris proved in 1902, such a movement can start with one person.

Reviews for "Witchy Glam: How to Rock Dolls Kill's Witchh Collection for a Night Out"

1. Sarah - 2/5 - I was really disappointed with the Dolls Kill Witchh clothing. The quality was not at all what I expected. The fabric felt cheap and the stitching was poorly done. I also found the sizing to be inconsistent, with some pieces running much smaller or larger than indicated. Additionally, the designs looked much better in the pictures online than they did in person. Overall, I wouldn't recommend buying from this collection if you're looking for good quality clothing.

2. John - 1/5 - Dolls Kill Witchh was a complete waste of money for me. The clothes I ordered arrived late and when I tried them on, they didn't fit properly at all. The sizing was all over the place and the fabric felt really uncomfortable against my skin. Not to mention, the designs looked much tackier in person than they did online. I was really disappointed with my purchase and will not be buying from this collection again.

3. Emily - 2/5 - I had high hopes for the Dolls Kill Witchh collection, but it fell short of my expectations. The clothes seemed overpriced for the quality they offered. Fabric was thin and flimsy, and the stitching was coming undone in some places. The sizing was also a major issue. I ordered my usual size, but the items came either too big or too small. It was really frustrating, and I ended up returning most of the items. I wouldn't recommend buying from this collection unless you're willing to risk getting poorly made and ill-fitting clothing.

4. Michael - 3/5 - While I didn't hate Dolls Kill Witchh, I was far from impressed. The clothing I ordered was okay, but nothing special. The quality was average, and the designs were just average. The sizing was also hit or miss, with some items fitting well and others being too tight or too loose. Overall, I don't think it's worth the hype and would prefer to shop elsewhere for similar styles at a better price.
