It is not true that the Annabelle doll is missing. In May 2025, rumors circulated online that the haunted Annabelle doll had gone missing while traveling during a paranormal tour, sparking widespread panic. However, lead paranormal investigator Dan Rivera, associated with the New England Society for Psychic Research (NESPR), debunked these rumors by showing footage of Annabelle safely back inside her glass case at the Warrens’ Occult Museum in Connecticut. Later in 2025, though, after Dan Rivera's sudden death in July, it was reported that the doll was missing from his hotel room where he was found dead. Despite this, the official stance is that Annabelle remains securely housed at the Warrens’ museum, not stolen or lost. The doll's presence was confirmed multiple times by investigators to assure the public. Speculations about its disappearance during tours or in relation to mysterious events remain unconfirmed and are part of the lore and fascination surrounding Annabelle.
