Annabelle Doll ‘Missing’ Claims Spark Internet Panic
Social media erupted with speculation after reports emerged suggesting the infamous Annabelle doll had vanished following her scheduled appearance at San Antonio’s Psychic and Spirit Fest over the weekend. The notorious possessed toy had recently been connected to multiple fire incidents occurring throughout New Orleans during the current month.
Local residents began circulating claims across various social platforms asserting the supernatural artifact had disappeared. These rumors gained momentum following a destructive blaze at the historically significant Nottoway Plantation, currently operating as Nottoway Resort, located in White Castle, Louisiana.
Online communities rapidly developed numerous conspiracy theories attempting to connect the Louisiana fire with Annabelle’s recent exhibition in the state. The Warrens Occult Museum in Connecticut had been conducting touring displays featuring the feared Raggedy Ann doll, which digital users widely believe harbors malevolent spirits.
Viral Social Media Response
The speculation triggered widespread panic among internet users, generating thousands of concerned posts across multiple platforms.
“I just saw a post on Facebook that they LOST THE ANNABELLE DOLL? I’m fleeing the country goodbye,” expressed one alarmed user on platform X.
Another individual escalated the concern, posting: “THEY LOST THE ANNABELLE DOLL?? LIKE?? THE HAUNTED ANNABELLE DOLL?? They take her on a tour around America…… AND THEN THEY LOOSE HER? BRAH?”
A third user conveyed their distress: “Wdym the annabelle doll is missing??? who tf lost her??? i was already not able to sleep ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜”
Official Debunking
Dan Rivera from NESPR (New England Society for Psychic Research) swiftly addressed the circulating misinformation by providing definitive proof contradicting the rumors. Rivera recorded himself physically entering the Warrens Occult Museum, documenting the doll’s presence within its designated location.
The verification video was subsequently shared on Facebook, accompanied by an explanatory message: “Some wild and crazy internet rumors this morning claiming that we lost Annabelle. She/it is NOT lost and here’s Dan Rivera with NESPR proving she is back home inside the museum in Connecticut.. for now. And no, Annabelle is not supposed to be in Chicago.”
This official confirmation effectively dispelled the widespread panic that had gripped social media users throughout the day, demonstrating how rapidly unverified information can spread across digital platforms and create unnecessary public concern.
