Background

The movie Annabelle is supposed to be a prequel to the movie The Conjuring. Where in this movie it starts off with a lovely young couple named Mia (played by Annabelle Wallis) and John (played by
Ward Horton), who have recently moved into a new town.

As a gift for the birth of their first child, John gives his wife a doll as a part of her extensive collection. Later that night as Mia nears her due date and the new couple lay in a bed, the pregnant wife hears a gunshot in the middle of the night next door. As the husband goes to go check on the neighbors the intruders have already entered their house and soon stab Mia in the belly. However, just in time, cops and the husband come back to kill both intruders, which happen to be a pair of satanic cultists.


At this scene it is known to be Annabelle Higgins, the next door neighbor's daughter that they lost a couple of years before, who was an intruder and died with the Annabelle doll in her hands with some blood landing on the doll. This is to be where Annabelle, the possessed doll came to be, as before you know it, Mia starts seeing shadowy figures on the stairs, hearing noises in the night and realizing that something evil wants her baby.
