We all remember our first toy.

For some unlucky people, a doll may have been the first thing they can remember receiving.

It seems so harmless.

Child's play.

Fast forward and you get a doll as an adult.

How do you feel now?

Why should you feel afraid?

Well, for one unlucky nursing student, an innocent-looking gift, soon brought her into a world of terror

when a certain doll entered her life.

And that doll was none other than Annabel.

Contrary to popular belief,

the real Annabel doll is not as creepy-looking as the movie creators depict her.

In the movies, the doll is dramatized as a way to add a level of chilling fear into the audience.

From the pale porcelain skin and layered makeup, to the long pigtails and white dress,

the doll in theaters is sure to leave you thinking about her in the middle of the night

while you try to fall asleep.

However, if you knew what the real doll looked like, you would probably be shocked by its differences.

Annabelle surprisingly looks much like the old raggedy Ann type dolls that many of your parents had as children.

She has red hair made out of yarn,

big black eyes, a triangle nose, and a giant, eerie smile across her face. Perhaps what makes

her just as creepy is knowing what she has done, despite how innocent she looks.

My name is Edwin. Here's a dark memory.
