On 25 May 2025, rumours that the infamous haunted doll Annabelle had gone missing began circulating widely on social media. The speculation erupted when attendees at a paranormal event in Louisiana noticed the doll was not part of the expected exhibit. Within hours, the hashtag #AnnabelleMissing was trending, accompanied by conspiracy theories and escalating panic among supernatural enthusiasts.
The claims were sparked during the 'Devils on the Run' tour, a paranormal festival held in White Castle, where Annabelle was reportedly meant to appear. Adding fuel to the fire, a blaze broke out at the nearby Nottoway Plantation, further intensifying suspicion that something sinister was at play. Many users on TikTok and X (formerly Twitter) began linking the two incidents, prompting a swift response from paranormal experts.
