Rhode Island Conjuring Farmhouse Auctioned Halloween

The Rhode Island farmhouse that inspired the popular horror movie franchise The Conjuring is set to go up for auction on Halloween, attracting significant attention from fans and potential buyers. Located in Burrillville and built in the 19th century, the 3,000-square-foot property sits on around eight acres and became infamous due to the Perron family's reported paranormal experiences in the 1970s, which were investigated by Ed and Lorraine Warren. Although the original movie was not filmed there, it dramatizes the Warrens' efforts to help the Perron family, linking the hauntings to the spirit of Bathsheba Sherman, a supposed witch from the 1800s. Auctioneers expect a competitive bidding process, with interest from builders, developers, and supernatural enthusiasts alike. The Conjuring franchise, now spanning multiple sequels including the recent The Conjuring: Last Rites, continues to draw attention to the property and its eerie history. Previous residents have reported continuing supernatural activity, adding to the home's mystique and appeal.
