The folks over at The Line-Up have teamed up with Destination America to bring a live stream of “Ann”, a supposedly haunted doll, that can be watched by anyone in the ultra rare chance that the doll might do something paranormal.
The site writes a description of why this doll has such a significant supernatural history:
According to paranormal investigators, Ann was a 13-year-old girl treated for tuberculosis at Waverly Hills Sanatorium in the early 1900s, during a time when the idea of a “rest-cure” was in actuality a certain death sentence. One of Ann’s caretakers was a former aide named Lois, who worked at the institution from 1919 to 1935. She was responsible for the children’s welfare, and unsurprisingly, became very attached to her young patients.
Likewise, the patients relied on Lois … so much so that when they succumbed to their illnesses, their spirits followed the woman home, hoping she could continue caring for them. A friend recommended that Lois obtain vessels to house these unfortunate souls.
Thus, Lois’s doll collection was born.
Although Lois has since passed away, she left detailed journals about her dolls, including Ann. Lois claims Ann was terrified of the dark, and that her spirit, who lives on this doll, cries out for help in the middle of the night with a shaky voice. Lois also reported to her daughter that the Ann doll once cried—a single tear ran down her cheek. Her right arm once moved up and down, as if she was waving.
The site offers more spooky stories, so I won’t copy the whole thing. It’s a creepy read, so it’s definitely worth clicking the link above and reading the whole thing. I just wanted to give you enough to realize why this doll has an unpleasant vibe about her. However, it could just be the moody lighting…
Additionally, if you want to tempt fate, Ann is going to be given away to one lucky(?) person. Details on how to enter can be found here.
