13 Iconic Horror Movies Inspired by Real-Life Events

What's real: Most of the events of this prequel have been fabricated. Interestingly enough, though, the way we meet Annabelle in The Conjuring is very close to her real story. The official website of Ed and Lorraine Warren has an in-depth telling of Annabelle's tale, which details the way the doll moves, leaves notes, and inadvertently causes horrifying accidents. Annabelle is actually a Raggedy Ann doll in real life, and is currently being held safely in a glass case in the Warrens's Occult Museum.
