WASHINGTON: On the 15th of this month, a fire broke out at the Nottoway Plantation in the town of White Castle, Louisiana, US. Although there were no casualties, the building was damaged. The next day, 11 prisoners escaped from a prison in New Orleans, Louisiana. The cause of all these unpleasant incidents is the ghost doll 'Annabelle'! People say that Annabelle was in Louisiana when the incidents occurred. Annabelle was brought as part of a paranormal exhibition called 'Devils on the Run'. It was spread on social media that Annabelle had disappeared during the exhibition and that there would be a series of accidents. As the news spread like wildfire, the locals were terrified.

The locals are afraid that the "troublesome" Annabelle will cause danger. However, the truth is that Annabelle has no connection to these incidents. The news that Annabelle is missing is fake news that someone created on social media.

Dan Rivera, Lead Investigator at the New England Society for Psychic Research (NESPR), visited the Warrens Occult Museum in Monroe, Connecticut, where Annabelle was kept, the other day, and confirmed that the doll was still there. He also released a video of Annabelle as evidence.
