When a young woman receives the birthday gift of a raggedy ann doll from her mother, she is first elated, "Believing it to make a wonderful companion. But when the doll begins to move on it's own, it soon reveals it's malevolent nature. It will take the expertise of renowned demonologists Ed & Lorraine Warren and several priests to help free them from the inhuman, demonic entity that now infests their lives. Will they make it out alive before it's too late? This is the untold story of the demonic Annabelle doll of Connecticut. This story just may make you think twice about those keepsakes you have lying around.

This account of the origin of Annabelle the doll relies heavily on the work of Gerald Brittle, the author of the 1980 book "The Demonologist", in which the career of the paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren was documented using the Warren’s own case files and exclusive interviews with the author. In its aftermath, it appears that the names associated with the Annabelle the doll case were changed or confused. Thus, in the interest of accuracy, we will be using what are claimed to be the real names of those involved, as used by Brittle in the 2013 edition of his book.

For clarification, Deidre Bernard is popularly referred to as “Donna” or “Debbie”, Lara Clifton as “Angie”, and Cal Randell as “Lou”.
