The Annabelle doll is a vintage porcelain doll that gained fame due to its association with paranormal events. It was originally a gift for a nursing student in the 1970s, but soon after, she and her roommates reported strange occurrences, including the doll moving on its own. The doll is now housed in the Warrens' Occult Museum in Connecticut, where it is kept in a glass case. The Warrens, Ed and Lorraine, were famous paranormal investigators who claimed that the doll was possessed by a malevolent spirit. The story of Annabelle has inspired several horror films, further popularizing its legend.
