Haunted Annabelle doll to blame for LA fire and jailbreak?
A supposedly haunted Raggedy Ann doll named Annabelle, the real-life inspiration for The Conjuring, recently toured New Orleans under heavy security. The day after her visit, a historic plantation burned down — and the day after that, 10 inmates escaped from a city jail. There's no evidence linking the events, but the internet is running wild. Her caretakers insist Annabelle was never out of control and is now safely back in her museum.
