The Warren Occult Museum was first established in the year 1952 by the Warrens and added some items that had been supposedly touched by evil as noted by Atlas Obscura. The Warren loved the trinkets from the public.
Additionally, there were a couple of locked-up trinkets including an alleged vampire’s coffin and some demonic masks. However, Annabelle, the doll sat all alone in an enclosed glass case. She looked nothing like those in movies. She was said to have caused a man’s death in the museum.
