On this chilling episode of Late Night Legends, K leads the team into one of the most infamous cases in paranormal history: the story of Annabelle the Doll. Joined by Tim, Maria, and Charlie, the crew unravels the unsettling origin and growing mythology around this seemingly innocent Raggedy Ann doll turned alleged demonic vessel.
We explore the original 1970s haunting, when a nursing student claimed Annabelle moved on her own and left eerie handwritten notes. Things escalated until the case caught the attention of famed demonologists Ed and Lorraine Warren, who locked her away in their Occult Museum with a warning: “Positively Do Not Open.”
But the legend didn’t end there. From rumors of her “escape” in 2020, to viral TikToks, museum controversies, and the cultural impact of the Conjuring universe, K guides the team through recent developments, raising the question: is this truly a haunted artifact—or the most brilliant paranormal PR campaign of all time?
The Legends are split down the middle. Is Annabelle a genuine case of possession… or just a well-stitched con?
👻 Cursed objects. Demonology. Disbelief. And a little side-eye at the Warrens. Classic Late Night Legends—where the flashlight batteries always die right when it gets weird.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
