The Conjuring House In Rhode Island Is Among The Most Haunted Places In The Nation
Rhode Island is one of the oldest states, so it should come as no surprise that Rhody is riddled with ghost stories. But our most famous haunted house is not the old home of one of our founding fathers, or even H.P. Lovecraft’s former place of residence. It’s the house that was featured in the movie The Conjuring. And the most disturbing part of all of it is that those stories are largely true… and that house remains one of the most haunted places in the country.
We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life. While we continue to feature destinations that make our state wonderful, please take proper precautions or add them to your bucket list to see at a later date.

The farmhouse dates all the way back to 1736, so it comes as no surprise that quite a bit of paranormal activity has been reported.

Bathsheba was a woman who was born in 1812 in Rhode Island. In 1844, she got married and moved to this home. The couple had a son named Sherman, followed by three other kids who died during childbirth. At some point, a child who died in Bathsheba's care (not her own) was found to have been stabbed with a sewing needle. That was when rumors began to fly that Bathsheba was practicing witchcraft. Although Bathsheba was found not guilty, rumor has it that she hung herself in 1885.

They moved in in 1970 with their five daughters, and it didn't take long for the paranormal activity to begin.

Soon, the children started seeing -- and even interacting with -- spirits. But before long, things turned dark. The family would constantly smell a terrible, rotting stench, and the children's beds would shake in the middle of the night. Roger Perron, who would regularly have to go into the basement to fix the furnace, swore he felt a cold presence behind him.

Lorraine, a clairvoyant, picked up on the name Bathsheba right away. She led a seance, and allegedly Bathsheba left the building. Not long after, the Perron family left as well.
This house is currently occupied, but reports of paranormal activity occur to this day. Check out this fascinating video for more information.
