The doll was first owned by a student who, in 1970, called upon the Warrens when she claimed Annabelle started “exhibiting malicious and frightening behaviour”.
To emphasise the point, he turned the camera to the apparently haunted doll, who could be seen safely in her enclosure.
Annabelle first appeared in The Conjuring before receiving her own spin-off franchise.
The Warrens always claimed that the doll was “demonically possessed” by the spirit of a deceased girl.
