Overview

• Matt Rife and YouTuber Elton Castee announced the purchase of Ed and Lorraine Warren’s former home and Occult Museum in Monroe, Connecticut.
• A legal agreement grants them guardianship of more than 750 paranormal artifacts for at least five years, without transferring ownership of the items.
• They intend to reopen the site for guided museum tours and overnight visitor stays to immerse guests in its haunted history.
• Reactivation of the property depends on completing fire-safety upgrades and securing zoning approvals that shuttered the museum in 2019.
• The Annabelle doll, notorious for its alleged demonic aura, was recently offsite on tour when handler Dan Rivera died, with authorities ruling out suspicious circumstances.
