The Perron Family and the Conjuring House – The Incident That Inspired the Conjuring Movie

The Perron family moved into a farmhouse in Harrisville, Rhode Island, in 1971. Shortly afterward, they began experiencing strange phenomena: doors slamming shut on their own, strange noises, voices, and objects moving by themselves. Carolyn Perron, the mother, said that she often felt attacked by a malevolent presence, which she associated with a woman named Bathsheba Sherman, who was said to have lived on the farm in the 19th century and was accused of witchcraft. The children experienced both frightening and more playful spirits, but the dark force seemed to target their mother in particular. The story later became widely known through the investigation of Ed and Lorraine Warren and inspired the film The Conjuring (2013). Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
