“Annabelle 4: Evil Rise Again” dives back into the sinister world of the infamous cursed doll. Set in the late 1980s, the film begins with the discovery of Annabelle in an old, abandoned house that is about to be demolished. The workers, unaware of the doll’s dark history, inadvertently awaken her evil spirit by taking her to a local antique shop. The shop owner, a widowed woman named Margaret, is intrigued by the doll’s eerie appearance and decides to keep it, thinking it might bring customers.
Soon after, strange occurrences begin to plague the shop. Items are mysteriously rearranged, objects fly off shelves, and customers experience terrifying visions. Margaret dismisses these events as coincidences until her teenage daughter, Lily, becomes inexplicably drawn to Annabelle. The doll’s malevolent influence grows stronger, manipulating Lilyβs emotions and drawing out her deepest fears. As Lily becomes more attached to the doll, her behavior becomes erratic, and she starts to experience horrific nightmares that blur the line between reality and the supernatural.
Margaret, desperate to save her daughter, reaches out to a local priest and a paranormal investigator who warns her that Annabelle’s presence is far more dangerous than she realizes. The investigator reveals that Annabelle has been seeking a new host and is attempting to possess Lily fully to unleash her evil upon the world.
The trailer hints at intense sequences where the doll seems to move on its own, lights flicker, and ghostly apparitions haunt the shop. As Margaret, the priest, and the investigator perform a ritual to expel the demonic spirit, Annabelle fights back, using her dark powers to manipulate reality. Doors slam, objects shatter, and the shop transforms into a nightmarish landscape.
The climax of the trailer shows Lily, now fully possessed by the malevolent spirit, turning on her mother with a chilling smile. Just as it seems Annabelle has won, the priest attempts one final exorcism. The trailer ends with a loud scream and the lights going out, leaving the fate of Lily, Margaret, and the doll uncertain.
“Annabelle 4: Evil Rise Again” promises a chilling continuation of the saga, with new horrors and the same relentless evil fans have come to fear.
