The Conjuring Halloween Special

I've got something to admit, I was terrified of Raggedy Ann as a child. While The Conjuring movies are great, most people don't know those "true stories" they're based on happened somewhat recently.

Thanks to The Exorcist and The Amityville Horror, paranormal and occult stuff was pretty much all over the place during my childhood. Add in 80's Satanic Panic and you've got the recipe for much needed therapy. One popular ghost story was the possessed Raggedy Ann doll.

I'm of course talking about the real life Annabelle, which was an object of terror to a generation of children. It doesn't help that Raggedy Anne dolls were still everywhere at the time and someone gave her a Halloween Special. It's about the doll bringing a lonely pumpkin and child together. You read that right.

The Pumpkin who couldn't Smile

I'll sneak a programing note into this here Halloween Horrorcon post. It's Labor Day weekend and between having company and needing a little R&R, I'll be taking a few days off from posting until after the holiday. Hope everyone ejoys the long weekend as well as this charming cartoon staring Annabelle from the Conjuring.
