Heebies jeebies: Doll from The Conjuring coming to toy stores

This isn't the sort of rosy-cheeked baby doll that might make you nostalgic for playing house. It's more likely to make you want to sleep with the lights on, or else lock the doll in a closet.

A toy company announced it will soon market a version of Annabelle, the terrifying doll introduced in the horror movie and set to return in the sequel.

Released in 2013, The Conjuring focused on the Warrens, a husband-and-wife paranormal detective team, and their attempt to help a family terrorised by a demon. The prequel Annabelle, which is due in theaters on October 3, focuses on the origin story of the eponymous doll.

Naturally the toy, which will be launched in late 2014, isn't the sort of rosy-cheeked baby doll that might make you nostalgic for playing house. It's more likely to make you want to sleep with the lights on, or else lock the doll in a closet.

For anyone considering buying the doll for their kids, the trailer for Annabelle might help make up your mind.
