Tonight's story follows a young boy who receives an antique doll as a birthday gift from his grandmother. At first, it seems harmless. Then it begins appearing in places it shouldn't be. Notes start appearing around the house. The doll always seems to be watching. And as the years pass, the line between imagination and something far more dangerous begins to disappear.

Then we explore one of the most famous haunted object cases ever reported.

In 1970, a Raggedy Ann doll named Annabelle became the center of a series of unsettling events involving unexplained movement, handwritten messages, alleged attacks, paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren, and decades of reports that continue to follow the doll to this day. Whether Annabelle is simply a toy, a misunderstood phenomenon, or something else entirely remains a question people are still asking more than fifty years later.

Something is out there.

And it isn’t hunting like an animal.

As the days pass and the hunger sets in, the line between survival and something else begins to blur… until the realization comes too late.

Just something in the sky…

that was seen.

It should have stayed that way.
