In this new shot from Annabelle: Creation, star Talitha Bateman walks through a doll workshop, presumably where Annabelle is created.
Lights Out‘s David F. Sandberg directs the follow-up to 2014’s hugely successful Annabelle, which scared up nearly $257 million at the worldwide box office during its run in theaters.
In Annabelle: Creation, “Several years after the tragic death of their little girl, a dollmaker and his wife welcome a nun and several girls from a shuttered orphanage into their home, soon becoming the target of the dollmaker’s possessed creation, Annabelle.”
