The Haunted Doll: A Ghost Story
Sophie was always interested in new things. So, when she went to her grandmother’s house, she just had to check out the attic. Sophie was going through the mess when she found an old wooden box tucked away in the corner.
Sophie opened the box’s lid and looked inside without giving it a second thought. There was a doll sitting on a bed of dusty cloth. It had rosy cheeks painted on its porcelain face, and a bow was tied in the back of its curly brown hair. Sophie was drawn to the doll, even though it was old and worn.
She took the doll in her hands and looked at it carefully. It was heavier than she thought it would be, and when she turned the doll over in her hands, she saw a small tag on the doll’s dress. “Annabelle, 1922,” it said.
Sophie could not believe her good fortune. She had always liked old things, and this doll seemed like a real find. She wrapped the doll carefully in a scarf and went back to her room.
Strange things started to happen as soon as Sophie brought the doll into her room. At first, it was just little things, like the doll’s head turning a little bit on its own. But then Sophie started to hear whispers coming from the doll’s mouth. Sophie could barely hear the words, but she could make out “help” and “trapped.”
Sophie knew there was a problem. She tried to ignore the whispers, but they just got louder and more persistent. As she lay in bed one night, she heard the doll’s voice more clearly than she ever had before.
The doll said, “Please help me.” “I can’t get out.” “Please help me.”
Sophie sat up in bed with a racing heart. When she looked at the doll, its eyes were wide open and looking straight ahead.
“What do you do?” Sophie asked with a shaking voice.
“My name is Annabelle,” said the doll. “I’ve been stuck in this doll for almost a hundred years. Please help me get away.”
Sophie was confused about what to do. Nothing like this had ever happened to her before. But she couldn’t turn away from the doll’s cries. She decided to try to figure out what was going on by doing some research.
Sophie spent a lot of time looking for information about Annabelle in online forums and chat rooms. She found out that the doll had belonged to a girl named Annabelle who had died in 1922 in a mysterious way. There were rumors that her soul was stuck in the doll and couldn’t move on to the next world.
Sophie got a chill up and down her back. She wasn’t sure if she believed in ghosts, but the strange things that were happening with the doll were hard to ignore. She decided that she had to find a way to help Annabelle get away from the doll and find peace.
Sophie looked on the Internet for a spiritualist who could help her talk to Annabelle’s ghost. She finally found a woman named Mrs. Grayson who said she knew about ghosts and other strange things.
Sophie set up a face-to-face meeting with Mrs. Grayson. When she got there, Mrs. Grayson smiled at her and told her to come inside.
Mrs. Grayson gave Sophie a cup of tea and said, “Tell me about the doll.”
Sophie told what had been going on, from the whispers to the doll’s cries for help.
Mrs. Grayson gave a deep nod. “It sounds like Annabelle’s spirit is stuck inside the doll. But maybe there is a way to get her out.”
She went on to say that they would need to do a ritual to help Annabelle’s spirit move on to the next life. Even though it wouldn’t be easy, it was the only way to stop the scary doll.
Sophie paid close attention as Mrs. Grayson told them what to do next. To bring Annabelle’s spirit back, they would have to put a circle of salt around the doll and say a series of spells.
Sophie was scared, but she didn’t give up. She knew she had to find peace for Annabelle.
They put the doll in the middle of the circle of salt. Mrs. Grayson started to chant, and Sophie joined in as best she could, repeating the words.
The room got colder and darker as they sang. Sophie could hear Annabelle’s voice getting louder and more urgent as the doll started to shake.
Then, everything stopped just as quickly as it had begun. The room was quiet, and the doll was still in the middle of the circle of salt.
Mrs. Grayson and Sophie both let out a sigh of relief. It had been done. Annabelle’s spirit was no longer trapped in the doll.
Sophie put the doll back in the attic by wrapping it back up in the scarf. She knew she would never be able to play with the doll again, but she just couldn’t throw it away. Instead, she put it in the back of the box and vowed to never forget the haunted doll and the spirit that was trapped inside it.
