Annabelle, Paranormal
Digest more
Annabelle became a household name in 2014 when a horror film followed the story of a doll that became possessed, haunting a couple nearly to their death. Now, the real doll that inspired the movie and its sequels — also called Annabelle — is in the spotlight.
There is indeed a real Annabelle doll, though she’s a bit less creepy-looking than her cinematic counterpart. The New Haven Register once risked getting on Annabelle’s bad side by describing her as “a plain-looking, classic Raggedy Ann doll with red yarn for hair.”

While Annabelle the doll is real, the movie is not a true story. In Annabelle, a female cult member named Annabelle Higgins kills herself while holding the doll, and the demon she helped summon possesses it afterward.
