History
In the film, it is stated that Annabelle was the daughter of Pete and Sharon Higgins, and that, as she grew into her teenage years, she ran away to join an unknown group. Though her parents and neighbors assumed she joined with the hippies, she actually joined a satanic cult known as the Disciples of the Ram.

Two years later, Annabelle returned to her home town with her boyfriend and broke into her parents' house. She and her boyfriend proceeded to murder her parents. The neighbors, Mia and John Form, heard the commotion and called for help, but the two killers crept into their house and attacked. While her boyfriend attacked and stabbed to couple, including a pregnant Mia, Annabelle locked herself in the nursery and grabbed hold of one of the dolls. The police arrived and shot the boyfriend dead, then kicked down the nursery door to find that Annabelle had taken her own life and drawn a symbol in blood on the wall beside her, still holding the doll.

Afterwards, the Forms and their child began to experience extreme paranormal activity, which Mia first assumed to be the ghost of Annabelle latched onto the doll. However, it is revealed by Father Perez that Annabelle's ghost did not exist, but that her suicide ritual had latched a powerful demon to it, one that pretended to be Annabelle's ghost and sought to devour souls. Perez took the doll, but was attacked by the spirit, which made its way back to the Forms' apartment and kidnapped their child, demanding Mia give her soul in exchange. Mia agreed, but was stopped by her husband and friend Evelyn, who sacrificed her own soul to save Mia and her child.

Appearance
Annabelle appears as a tall teenage girl with fair white skin, long curly brown hair, and dressed all in white robes. While her face is never completely seen as a teenager, it is when she is shown as a child both in photographs and in the forms taken by the demon.
