For decades, the Perron family home in Burrillville, Rhode Island, has fascinated horror fans and paranormal enthusiasts alike. Built in 1736, the farmhouse is steeped in history, with stories of strange happenings, mysterious shadows, and unexplained sounds that have captured imaginations far beyond its quiet neighborhood. Its legacy is woven into the folklore of New England, where tales of haunted houses and restless spirits are as common as autumn fog.

Now, after years of captivating audiences on the big screen and in countless ghost stories, the house is poised for a chilling real-life event that fans of the series won’t want to miss.
