In the first game of the series, we see Annabelle alone in her apartment. Before she goes to sleep, she takes a electric grill from her balcony, put it next to her bed, put her clothes in it, and turned it on before going to bed. This sugests that she was attempting to commit suicide in her sleep. In her dream, Annabelle relives her positive memories that gives her reasons to live. However, as Annabelle experience these positive memories, the things she is running away from slowly catches up to her by the end of her dream. By the end of the first game, we see the end result of her suicide attempt. Her father, Jason, managed to turn off the electric grill before it could start a fire. However, Annabelle woke up and stabbed Jason. After doing so, she reattempted suicide by hanging herself in the bathroom. The game ends with her best friend Melody entering Annabelle's apartment through the balcony only to see the aftermath.
The Dreams of Melody Moonlight
Even though this game follows Melody's perspective, we learn that Annabelle survived her attempted suicide and went into a coma. At the start of the game, Annabelle has supposedly woke up recently, and Melody is excited for her to be released from the hospital. However, the whole game turned out to be a dream, and we don't find out the ultimate fate of Annabelle. We do get to see get a brief glimpse of how Annabelle talks and interacts with Melody throughout the game.
Annabelle: Projection
This game is not canon to the series. Storywise, it takes place after the first two games. In this game, we once again take control of Annabelle. Due to the chaotic nature of her current mindset, Annabelle is largely a unreliable narrator throughout this game. A lot of the things Annabelle sees, encounters and talks about in this game's story does not literally reflect reality or Annabelle herself. What matters however, is what this journey represents. In the first game, Annabelle tried running away from her troubles by focusing on external positive things. In this game, Annabelle is forced to face what she is running from in a unfiltered, abiet, different form. The main lesson Annabelle learns from this experience is that she must come to terms with herself in order to move on with her life. By the end of the game, she does just that, thus taking the first step to recovery.
