Yes, Annabelle is real, but she doesn't look exactly like the frightening figurine in 'The Conjuring' universe.
The son of a Connecticut paranormal investigator who died while touring with the Annabelle doll remembered his father as "a great man who loved deeply and lived fully."
Annabelle became a household name in 2014 when a horror film followed the story of a doll that became possessed, haunting a couple nearly to their death. Now, the real doll that inspired the movie and its sequels — also called Annabelle — is in the spotlight.
