Demon Doll For Monday Mystery...!

Here is a story that might just creep you out a bit.

This doesn't involve murder or anything like that, but it's pretty creepy just the same. See what you think.

Annabelle the Demon Doll

Let’s face it: all dolls are a little creepy. But a figurine rumored to attack people, scrawl strange notes, and contain the ghost of a dead little girl who may actually be a demon? Yeah, no thanks.

Annabelle the doll is apparently all of these things—despite looking like a kindly Raggedy Ann. Purchased by a well-intending mother at a thrift store as a gift for her college-aged daughter, Annabelle wound up in the apartment of two young women. They soon noticed strange things happening that seemed tied to the presence of the doll. A medium informed them that the spirit of a young girl who had died in the apartment inhabited Annabelle; the ghost liked the two women, and wanted to stay. Surprisingly, they complied. But as the eerie activity increased, the young women asked for a second opinion. Psychic investigators Lorraine and Ed Warren arrived, claiming now that the spirit in the doll was actually a demon, posing as the girl’s ghost. The Warrens then took Annabelle, locking her in a glass case with the written warning: “Positively Do Not Open.” If you wish to meet Annabelle yourself, she still resides in her glass box at the Warren’s Occult Museum in Connecticut.

Well, I told ya it was a creepy story, didn't I ?

Coffee out on the patio this morning.

Reminds me of some stories that I'd rather not have remembered.
But nice to visit with you anyway, Bubba ~ Big hugs ...

Aww poor old doll. Creepy story for such a sweet doll.

I have widows and doors open and fans going right now. But it won't last to much longer. See you on the patio

Glad I don't like to play with dolls, at least not stuffed ones. . .

Hey Dizzy...
I thought you would appreciate the creepy factor. Playing with dolls isn't a favorite past-time of mine, but I still have a lot here that used to belong to Mom.
Handmade with the clothes being hand sewn as well
Thanks for the visit this morning!
