Of course, the scene was so confusing (i.e. Annie
   saying that she knows who killed her and then saying to Cooper, "You
   must be mistaken." <- what the heck does that mean?) that this isn't
   completely clear.

Well, the bodies that the ``women'' in this scene have don't always
correspond to who they claim to be:

Annie (in dark dress, no glazed over eyes): Dale.  I saw the face of
the man who killed me
Cooper: Annie... you saw the face of the man who killed you?
Annie: It was my husband.
Cooper: Annie?
Annie: Who's Annie?  It's me, it's me, it's me.
Cooper: Caroline?
Cut to Cooper's POV.  It's Caroline, in pastel-colored dress, with
glazed eyes.
Cooper: Caroline?
Caroline: You must be mistaken.  I'm alive.
(sometime during the course of this, we cut to a side shot, and it's
Annie, but in the pastel dress.  I'm don't believe we see her eyes
well enough to tell if they're glazed.)

So, the first apparition looks like Annie, but acts like Caroline.
She transmogrifies into something that looks like Caroline, but acts
like Annie (who denies being Caroline, i.e. dead), who then turns into
a combination of the two (Annie's appearance, Caroline's dress).

Or so it seems to me, anyway.
