Matt Rife and Elton Castee purchase real-life 'Conjuring' house with Annabelle doll

Matt Rife and Elton Castee buy the real-life 'Conjuring' house, home to the Annabelle doll.

Comedian Matt Rife and content creator Elton Castee have purchased the former Monroe, Connecticut home of renowned paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren.

The property, long associated with alleged supernatural activity, also houses the infamous Annabelle doll, which inspired elements of The Conjuring film franchise.

According to an announcement by Rife, he will act as the legal guardian of the entire haunted artifact collection for a minimum of five years.

He and Castee plan to reopen the site to the public, offering overnight stays and guided tours as part of a broader effort to preserve and share its paranormal history.

Rife expressed admiration for the Warrens and their legacy, describing the acquisition as both an honor and a passion project.

He referred to The Conjuring films as personal favorites and emphasized the cultural significance of the collection, now known as the Warren Occult Museum.

This move comes shortly after the passing of Dan Rivera, a paranormal investigator who had been responsible for handling the Annabelle doll.

His death raised questions about the future of the museum and its contents, which Rife and Castee now intend to safeguard and maintain.

The property is expected to open to the public by next summer, featuring immersive paranormal experiences, access to the artifact collection, and opportunities for overnight investigations in one of America’s most storied supernatural locations.
