ANNABELLE DOLL
But in 1952 - husband and wife duo Ed andLorraine Warren founded the oldest ghost hunting group in New England - which went on to spawnone of the widest collections of the alleged otherworldly - a host of demonic artifactsand items that are cursed and shrouded in paranormal mystery. Based in Monroe, Connecticut - The Warren’sOccult Museum allegedly hosts the largest array of obscure and haunted artifacts - itemswhich were used in extremely dangerous occult activities and diabolical practices aroundthe world. One of those items, perhaps the most iconic- is the ancient and evil Annabelle Doll. And - well, what would happen if that AnnabelleDoll suddenly, and with nefarious purpose - sprung out of it’s glass cage and walkedright on out of it’s museum based mausoleum. Well, let’s find out. Before we jump into that though - you allknow the drill by now. If you’re a fan of this video,

To get in touch with the creative team atLBQ - feel free to scour our information below. On with the show. According to legend, this particular demonicpossession was a Raggedy Ann doll that was given to a student nurse in 1968. After the doll had appeared to be behaving- strangely, shall we say - a psychic medium eventually told the girl that the doll wasunfortunately inhabited by the spirit of a dead girl named Annabelle. Supposedly - as the story goes - the studentnurse and her roommate first tried to get along with Annabelle by accepting and nurturingthe possessed doll - yeah, that’s never a good idea, right? Eventually though, as always happens - thegirls became completely terrified by Annabelle after the dolls malicious behaviour - whothen contacted the Warrens for help - and removed the doll to their museum after proclaimingit demonically possessed. And that’s where we’re at right now. Don’t get me wrong - there’s a hell ofa lot of skepticism surrounding this demonic urban legend - with most skeptics dismissingthe Warrens museum as off the shelf Halloween junk that you could buy at any gimmick store
. Many studies have also shown that the Annabellelegend is an interesting case study into the relationship between pop culture and paranormalfolklore - speculating that the cookie-cutter demonic doll first gave rise to films suchas Child’s Play, Puppet Master and Bride of Chucky - a frenzied response to the Gothicfear of the uncanny, something not quite human. In all likelihood, the early Robert the Dolllegend is mostly responsible for this - as well as the Living Doll episode of the TwilightZone. It’s a fear that hits a chord, all the wayfrom childhood into our adult lives. Dolls are freaking spooky, man. Well - let’s turn up that fear a tad more- and say that on one, quiet September night - Father Jim, the priest that currently curatesthe occult museum, finds something a little out of place. As he goes about his nightly business of shufflingaround the place in his soft, cloth sandals - Father Jim jingles his keys into the lock,when he notices that - strangely - the door to the museum is already ajar. He slowly creaks the door open - when he seesit in the soft, red glow of the museum. The glass case that Annabelle inhabits, witha placard that reads WARNING: POSITIVELY DO NOT OPEN alongside a Tarot card of the Devil- is smashed, and the broken glass lays shattered on the floor.
The Raggedy-Ann doll is nowhere to be seen. Has she been stolen? There’s no way - who would want to steala demonically possessed doll? But that’s when Father Jim sees it, in thereflection of the broken glass - the small figure of a red-headed doll standing in thedoorway behind him. The door slams, and the lights go out. I mean - in all seriousness though - if theAnnabelle doll escaped the Warren’s Occult Museum - then we’d all have to collectivelystart sweating a little bit. If the Annabelle doll is real, and indeeda demonic spirit hellbent on violent misdeeds - then, it’s safe to say that the majorityof the Warren’s case studies would also be real. While Ed Warren would never live to learnof the vindication of his life's work, Lorraine would be sitting there with a pretty smuglook on her face, a quiet - I told you so, you jackoffs. If the Annabelle Doll is real, then the EnfieldPoltergeist is real, the Amityville Horror
- Valak the Nun is real - Heaven and Hellare real, the entire foundation and pantheon of the Christian church is real. Hellfire, Judgement day, possession, exorcism. Paranormal Investigation will be big business,and the New England Society for Psychic Research will be hot property when it comes to savingour mortal souls. But where is Annabelle in all of this - asshe ushers in this new, dark age of demonic reign? Well - she’s right behind you - of course. Just kidding guys - she’d probably be makingher way upstairs to Lorraine Warren to give her a stern talking to for locking in hera box for fifty years.
