Matt Rife is the legal guardian of the Annabelle doll
In an Instagram announcement, the 29-year-old shared, 'I have officially purchased Ed and Lorraine Warren's home and Occult Museum, including being the legal guardian, for at least the next 5 years, of the entire haunted collection including THE ANNABELLE DOLL." Furthermore, he added that he is obsessed with haunted things and certainly, his favourite films are 'The Conjuring' franchise.
Dropping some crumbs about the future plans, Rife claimed that he is planning to open the house for overnight stays (or weekends) and museum tours so that people can experience and learn all about the haunted history surrounding the place.
In the post, Rife and Chase posed along with the infamous 'Warning: Positively Do Not Open' glass box, where the Annabelle doll is placed.
Matt Rife said in the clip shared on Instagram, 'This might be the most important and prominent piece of paranormal history in the world,' adding, 'I know a lot of you guys don't know what any of this means whatsoever, but if you follow ghost stuff, this is as big as it gets.' Moreover, he claimed that he might not own the artefacts, but they are the legal guardians for at least the next five years.
About 'The Conjuring' franchise
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the museum was open to the public before 2019, but was closed due to zoning issues. The final chapter of The Conjuring franchise, 'The Conjuring: The Last Rites,' will soon be released on September 5, 2025, where the story will follow Ed and Lorraine's take on the Smurl case.

Jung Jiwoo, BTS' J-Hope's sister calls out incessant questions about pregnancy: ‘Show some respect…'

Jung Jiwoo, YouTuber, business owner and fashion influencer, has had it with the constant speculation around her married life and plans to make it bigger. On August 4, the creator shared a new Instagram story on her account, calling out a netizen for their rude comment on one of her posts. She wondered why people were curious about her pregnancy, and even though she had never confirmed it, why they were blaming her and making it seem as if she had miscarried. Known to be the older sister of BTS ' J-Hope, she also appeared on the Netflix reality program The Influencer in 2024. Jung Jiwoo shuts down trolls enquiring about her pregnancy In a reply to the comment reading, 'Aren't you pregnant ? Or you lost the baby ? There is no bump and you are wearing tight clothes and doing exercise (tear emoji)', she seems to have lost her cool. Expressing anger about the seemingly never-ending questions about her plans for a baby, she called out the invasive question. Jung Jiwoo wrote, 'Was about the reply but the comment disappeared', hinting at how the commenters were quickly deleting their remarks after being hurtful. She covered the username and profile image of the person in question. 'We're trying for a baby but there's nothing to share yet,' she said, confirming her plans for wanting to get pregnant. However, she was very clear about the intrusive questions people seemed to be aiming at her and her family. 'I'm honestly shocked that someone I don't even know could ask such a personal and inappropriate question about our private life. Even my close friends wouldn't go there.' She swiftly put an end to the debate sharing that she never said she was pregnant and had not lost any baby or gone drinking because of it unlike what the person in the comment claimed. Revealing why she decided to speak now, Jung Jiwoo opened up, 'I've been ignoring it 'cause it's so far from the truth, but it's getting out of hand. Show some respect, please.'
