Comedian Matt Rife, best known in the United States for his stand-up tours and large social media following, has become the legal guardian of the infamous Annabelle doll and the new owner of the Warren Occult Museum in Monroe, Connecticut. The museum was founded by the late paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren, whose case files inspired The Conjuring film franchise.
While the full cost of the deal has not been disclosed, available property records and local valuations offer some insight. The transaction includes the former Warrens' home, the museum building, and temporary custodianship of more than 750 reportedly haunted artefacts, most notably Annabelle.
