/ Aug 02, 2025, 02:16PM IST
Comedian Matt Rife has stunned fans by buying the Warren Occult Museum and the haunted house that inspired The Conjuring films. Now the legal guardian of dozens of cursed artifacts, including the infamous Annabelle doll, Rife says he views the site as 'real history' that deserves reverence. The viral reveal on Instagram sparked both awe and fear, especially after reminders of Dan Rivera, Annabelle's former handler who died on tour. Rife confirmed that Annabelle will complete her tour before being locked away in the museum. Plans are already underway to open the house for overnight stays and paranormal investigations by Halloween 2025.

Katy Perry's ex takes cheeky jab at her romance buzz with Justin Trudeau: ‘Friends or not?'
Justin Trudeau and Katy Perry seemed to make an 'instant connection' over dinner and then at a concert last month. The singer's ex-fiance, Orlando Bloom, is apparently enjoying the buzz around the new rumored romance. While there is no concrete evidence to confirm Trudeau and Perry's relationship status, reports suggest that they are 'interested in each other'. Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom appear at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party in Beverly Hills(Evan Agostini/Invision/AP) The former Canadian prime minister and the pop star were recently seen enjoying dinner in Montreal, and Trudeau also attended her sold-out Lifetimes Tour concert at Bell Centre. PEOPLE quoted a source saying that the two had an 'instant connection', but any relationship between them is in the 'early stages'. However, soon memes targeted Katy Perry's ex, Orlando Bloom. Orlando Bloom responds to viral post Satirical outlet The Onion poked fun at Perry's romance rumors with Trudeau by pretending to set Bloom up with another former world leader - Angela Merkel. 'Orlando Bloom Spotted At Dinner With Angela Merkel,' a headline from The Onion, shared on Friday, read. The Instagram post was accompanied by what appeared to be an AI-generated image of the actor and the former Chancellor of Germany enjoying a candlelit meal together. "Just weeks after announcing his split with fiancée Katy Perry, English actor Orlando Bloom was photographed Friday dining with former German Chancellor Angela Merkel,' the newspaper further joked. 'Angela kept Orlando laughing all night — he couldn't keep his eyes off her!' said an insider source who spotted the pair sipping wine, slurping oysters, and splitting a decadent piece of chocolate layer cake at a Michelin-starred restaurant,' it added. Orlando Bloom was quick to react. Rather than brushing off The Onion's joke, the actor applauded, commenting '👏👏👏' on the post. Bloom did not elaborate. Last month, PEOPLE cited a source to report that Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau have 'a lot in common'. 'They are interested in each other, but it will take a while to see where this goes. She is traveling around the world, and he is figuring out his life now that he is no longer prime minister of Canada, but there is an attraction. They have a lot in common,' the source said.
