Annabelle (The Conjuring)
Annabelle is haunted doll that plays a central role in the Conjuring film franchise. According to the Warrens, the doll was given to a 28-year-old student nurse named Donna in 1970, and it was believed to be inhabited by the spirit of a deceased six-year-old girl named "Annabelle". However, the films portray Annabelle as being possessed by a demon named Malthus, who uses the doll as a vessel to carry out his malevolent activities. The doll's history involves a series of tragic events, including the death of a girl named Annabelle Higgins, who was later revealed to be a possessed individual named Janice, and her eventual suicide, which allowed the demon to take control of the doll. Annabelle has become one of the most iconic and feared characters in the Conjuring universe, appearing in several films, including "Annabelle," "Annabelle: Creation," and "Annabelle Comes Home," as well as making brief appearances in other films within the franchise.
