Matt Rife Acquires Annabelle Doll and Warren Occult Museum in Connecticut

American comedian Matt Rife made headlines by purchasing the Connecticut home that housed the occult museum of paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren, along with the infamous Annabelle doll. Known for its alleged demonic possession and as inspiration for The Conjuring and Annabelle film franchises, the doll has been a focal point of urban legends and paranormal lore since the 1970s.

Rife, celebrated for his irreverent humour and growing social media presence, has taken on the role of Annabelle’s “guardian,” per his team. The property, closed to the public since Lorraine Warren died in 2019, may reopen as an interactive experience blending paranormal tourism with live entertainment. Rife dismissed fears about the doll’s curse, joking in an interview, “If something weird happens, I’ll turn it into content.”

INSANE ANNOUNCEMENT 😍🤯😈👹

The Annabelle doll, a life-size Raggedy Ann, is kept in a blessed display case due to reported accidents and eerie events linked to those who mocked or touched it. Its reputation as one of the world’s most dangerous paranormal objects has been documented in books, films, and TV shows.

The acquisition has sparked polarised reactions. Some fans praise Rife’s boldness, while others, particularly in paranormal communities, caution against trivialising the doll’s dark history. Social media debates highlight the tension between Rife’s comedic approach and the serious symbolism surrounding Annabelle, with thousands engaging online.

Rife’s purchase bridges entertainment and the supernatural, potentially revitalising interest in the Warrens’ legacy while raising questions about commercialising paranormal artefacts. The move could redefine Rife’s public image and influence paranormal tourism trends. For accurate updates on celebrity and paranormal news, rely on trusted sources to avoid misinformation.
