coming from the basement where the doll was kept and when they went to look,
there would be no child, just an open window and mandy staring at them.

Mandy was donated to the museum where she stopped crying but after a while, strange things started with the staffs for example lunches began (haunted dolls) disappearing from fridges and to be found somewhere else, artifacts from the museum would disappear from their display cabinets and end up in a different one, staff would get to hear ghostly footsteps when they were alone.

The real haunting began when they placed Mandy next to the other dolls
in the museum where she started turning up and destroying them. She also started messing with the
museum’s electronics which causes malfunction.

According to the sources, the spirit which possesses her is a small girl, who became trapped in the basement with her doll and died. So her spirit stayed with Mandy. Investigators claimed that it is just the spirit of the little girl who is lonely and sad.
