ANNABELLE THE REAL DOLL

In 1970 a young woman who was studying to be a nurse, received a raggedy Anne doll from her mother. Raggedy Anne is a character that appeared in a series of books for young children. Raggedy Ann has red yarn for hair and a triangle nose. The character was made into a doll in 1915.

Delighted with her beautiful present, Donna decided to place it in her bedroom at college. Donna and her friend shared accommodation, they would often invite their friends round for supper.

One evening when Donna was showing off her Raggedy Anne doll to their friend Lou, their apartment was suddenly engulfed with a strange atmosphere, an energy shift.

The doll was supposedly haunted by a spirit of a young girl named ” Annabelle Higgins” However that being said, Demons or other such spirits often pretend to be the spirits of little children so that they can lure there victim into a false sense of security. This can be physical, mental, and psychical in nature and is designed to break the affected person’s will to live. Sleep deprivation, increased paranormal activity, bites, scratches, and even sexual assaults may take place).

Donna and her friend returned home one evening to find the rag doll standing upright and leaning against a chair in the dining room, as if it had frozen mid-step when it heard the door open. ““The doll also changed rooms by itself. We came home one night and the Annabelle doll was sitting in a chair by the front door. It was kneeling! The funny thing about it was, when we tried to make the doll kneel, it’d just fall over. It couldn’t kneel. Other times we’d find it sitting on the sofa, although when we left the apartment in the morning it’d be in Donna’s room with the door closed!”

In desperation they went to the infamous paranormal investigators, Ed and Lorraine Warren, who after much investigation decided it, was best to take the doll of them so they would not be affected by it anymore.

Throughout the decades Ed and Lorraine Warren have collected many possessed items from infamous cases. So that no harm could come to the general public, they decided to store the items in their shed, and even have a Priest come once a month to bless the room.

One day a young boy went to see the items with his girlfriend, Annabelle the doll is preserved in a glass case in the museum, under a red neon light, her black eyes seem to follow guests around the room, almost as if she is watching them! The young man, who after hearing the story about how the museum acquired Annabelle, started to make fun of the story to his partner. “This is a load of rubbish!” he apparently exclaimed. When Tony Spera was not looking (He is the son in law to Lorraine Warren and Ed Warren) the man went up to Annabelle and started tapping violently on the glass, provoking the spirit that inhabited the doll to do something if it was real. Shortly after they were asked to leave by Ed Warren…

One hour later the young man died due to losing control of his motorbike and crashing into a tree, his girlfriend survived, according to her the last image she saw in her head before the accident was of the doll. An omen?
