Don’t bring strange and creepy dolls into your house. Lee and Linzi Steer live in South Yorkshire, England, and run the Museum of Haunted Object out of their home. Their museum houses an identical copy of a notoriously evil rag doll from the U.S. that inspired The Conjuring and Annabelle horror movies. The Steers claim their Annabelle doll was caught on camera flipping over their Ouija board table, and they also believe the doll nearly caused them to get into a car accident and brought a mystery illness upon them that caused Linzi to be hospitalized for a week. The doll is said to have been made in the same factory as the one that inspired the horror movies, and was gifted to the couple in October 2019. Despite all of this the couple says they’re keeping the doll in the museum for now, though they say if things start getting violent they’ll consider getting help from a demonologist.
