Social media users were left in awe and amusement by Annabelle transformation video, with one commenting, "It takes a lot of courage to do what you have done." Another wrote, "If you would have come in front of me, I would have cried a lot, I swear." A third added with relief and humor, "I was waiting for this annual ritual. Thank god I only see reel of this and not real. You scary woman," capturing the mix of fright, admiration, and lighthearted reactions to her chilling Halloween stunt.
Halloween, celebrated annually on October 31, has its roots in the Celtic festival of Samhain. It is believed that on this night, the boundary between the living and the dead becomes blurred, leading people to light bonfires and wear costumes to ward off spirits. Though traditionally celebrated in Western countries, Halloween has seen rising interest in urban India in recent years.
