Annabelle’s Story

1.

In 1970 a mother purchased an antique Raggedy Ann Doll from a hobby store. The doll was a present for her daughter Donna on her birthday.

2.

Donna, at the time, was a student in college, preparing to graduate with her nursing degree and resided in a tiny apartment with her room mate Angie (a nurse as well). Pleased with the doll Donna placed it on her bed as a decoration and didn't give it a second thought until a few days later.

3.

With in that time both Donna and Angie noticed that there appeared to be something very strange and creepy about the doll. The doll apparently moved on its own, relatively unnoticeable movements at first, like a change in position, but as time ed the movement became more noticeable.

4.

Donna and Angie would come home to find the doll in a completely different room from which they had left it . Sometimes the doll would be found crossed legged on the couch with its arms folded , other times it was found upright, standing on its feet, leaning against a chair in the dining room.

5.

Several times Donna, placing the doll on the couch before leaving for work, would return home to find the doll back in her room on the bed with the door closed.

About a month after their experiences, Donna and Angie began to find pencilled messages on parchment paper that read "Help Us" and "Help Lou". The hand writing looked to belong to that of a small child. The creepy part about the messages was not the wording but the way they were written. At the time Donna had never kept parchment paper, on which the notes were written, in the house, so where did it come from?

1. One night Donna came home to find the doll had moved again, this time it was on her bed. 2. A sense of fear came over her when she inspected the doll and saw what looked like blood drops on the back of its hands and its chest. Seemingly, from no where, a liquid red substance had appeared on the doll. 3. Scared and desperate Donna and Angie decide it was time to seek expert advice. 4. Donna was introduced to the spirit of Annabelle Higgins. 5. The medium related the story of Annabelle to both Donna and Angie. Annabelle was a young girl that resided on the property before the apartments were built, they were "happy times". She was a young girl of only seven years old when her lifeless body was found in the field upon which the apartment complex now stands.

6.

The spirit related to the medium that she felt comfort with Donna and Angie and wanted to stay with them and be loved. Feeling comion for Annabelle and her story Donna gave her permission to inhibit the doll and stay with them.

7. What they did not know is this was no ordinary case and definitely no ordinary doll.

Lou’s

1.

Lou was friends with Donna and Angie and had been with them since the day the doll arrived.

2.

He was never fond of the doll.

3.

On several occasions , he warned Donna that it was evil and to get rid it of it. But Donna couldn’t do so as it was a present from her mother.

4.

Lou awoke one night from a deep sleep and in panic. He looked around the room but couldn't discern anything out of the ordinary and then it happened. Looking down toward his feet he saw the doll, Annabelle. It began to slowly glide up his leg, moved over his chest and then stopped. Within seconds the doll was strangling him. Paralyzed and gasping for breath Lou, at the point of asphyxiation, blacked out. Lou awoke the next morning, certain it wasn't a dream, Lou was determined to rid himself of that doll and the spirit that possessed it.

Paranormal Investigation: The Warrens

1.

Donna decided to seek real expert help and ed a priest, Father Hegan.

2.

Terrified, Father Hegan ed Ed and Lorraine Warren, expert demonologists.

3.

Ed and Lorraine Warren immediately took interest in the case and ed Donna concerning the doll.

4.

The Warrens, after speaking with Donna, Angie, and Lou came to the immediate conclusion that the doll itself was not in fact possessed but manipulated by an inhuman presence.

5.

Spirits do not Possess inanimate objects like houses or toys, they posses people. An inhuman spirit can attach itself to a place or object and this is what occurred in the Annabelle case.

6.

This spirit manipulated the doll and created the illusion of it being alive in order to get recognition. Truly, the spirit was not looking to stay attached to the doll, it was looking to posses a human host.

7.

According to Ed and Lorraine, Donna had made a mistake of bringing a medium into the apartment to communicate with it.

8.

The inhuman spirit now able to communicate through the medium, preyed on the girls emotional vulnerabilities by pretending to be a rather harmless, lost young girl with which during the seance, was allowed permission from Donna to haunt the apartment.

9.

At the conclusion of the investigation the Warrens felt it appropriate to have a recitation of an exorcism blessing by Father Cooke to cleanse the apartment.

10. At Donna’s request, and as a further precaution against the phenomena ever occurring in the home again, the Warrens took the big rag doll along with them when they left.

If you thought that’s the end of Annabelle, you are WRONG!!!

While the Warrens were driving home, they felt themselves as a the object of a vicious hatred. Then at each dangerous curve the car swerved and stalled with every corner causing the power steering and brakes to fail. Repeatedly the car verged on collision. Ed reached into the back seat into his black bag and took out a vial of holy water and doused the doll making the sign of the cross over it. The disturbances stopped immediately and the Warren's arrived safely home.

• After the Warrens arrived home, Ed sat the doll in a chair next to his desk. • During the ensuing weeks, however, it began showing up in various rooms of the house. • When the Warrens were away and had the doll locked up in the outer office building, they would often return to find it sitting comfortably upstairs in Ed’s easy chair when they opened the main front door. • In one instance, Father Jason Bradford a catholic exorcist came to the house. • Upon seeing the doll seated in the chair he picked it up and said " Your just a ragdoll Annabelle, you can't hurt anyone", and tossed the doll back in the chair at which point Ed exclaimed "That's one thing you better not say." • Upon leaving an hour later Lorraine pleaded to the priest to please be careful driving and to call her when he arrived home. • A few hours later Father Jason called Lorraine and explained that his brakes had failed as he entered a busy intersection. He was a involved in a near fatal accident destroying his vehicle.

• The Warrens had a special case built for Annabelle inside the Occult Museum, Connecticut where she resides to this day. Since the case was built, Annabelle no longer appeared to move.

• But one day, a young man and his girlfriend came to the museum on a motorcycle. • Upon hearing Annabelle’s story, he ran towards the case and began to bang on the case insisting that if the doll can put scratches on people then he wanted to also be scratched. Ed then asked the young man to leave the building immediately. • On the way home the young man and his girlfriend were laughing and making fun of the doll when he lost control of his motorcycle and went head on into a tree, the young man was killed instantly but his girlfriend survived and was hospitalized for over a year. • When asked what happened the young woman explained that they were laughing about the doll when they lost control of the motorcycle. • Ed warns you do not challenge evil, that no man is more powerful than Satan.
