👁️ Plot Summary
Just when the world thought the cursed doll was locked away forever, Annabelle returns—but this time, her evil has evolved. Set after the events of Annabelle Comes Home, ANNABELLE 4: The Devil’s Design explores what happens when a rogue cult breaks into the Warrens’ artifact room, stealing the doll and performing a ritual meant to awaken an ancient demon bound within her.
Now, Annabelle isn’t just a vessel of evil — she is its creator.
The story follows a group of college students, one of whom is connected to the Warrens’ past, who unwittingly become part of the ritual. Haunted by terrifying visions, mysterious deaths, and increasingly violent possessions, they must uncover the truth about Annabelle’s origin and her true purpose before her design is complete — and Hell is unleashed on Earth.
