A severed doll head was mailed to the Joystiq offices - and it says "Rebecca" on the back!!!

I think we're going to be seeing a lot more of ACM information and teases after DKF's June launch. Hoping.

Love the marketing idea . . . send journalists macabre packages.

Well it seems more and more likely now that we will finally be thrown a bone at this year's E3 although unlike the author of that article I doubt it is "case closed". It could always be just a clever nerd prank.

PC Gamer got one as well:

And Kotaku:
Which E3 Game Involves This Plastic Doll Head?

Kotaku says they will be seeing A:CM at E3 as well!

You know, I just realized that the doll head shouldn't have said "Rebecca" on the back - it should have said "Casey"!

Maybe... But I know when we were kids my Mom would write our names or our initials on the backs or bottoms of our toys so we wouldn't fight over them, so I think Rebecca was appropriate... extra creepy too considering she's *SPOILER* dead *END SPOILER*

Ahh, yes - "Rebecca's doll", not "a doll named Rebecca". That makes more sense.
