The Conjuring House: What's Really Happening, What the Legal Developments Mean, and What Comes Next
“The paranormal community deserves better than sensationalism — we do ourselves no favors when we chase clicks over credibility, and that's exactly why I wanted to have this conversation directly with you.”
— Jason Hawes
There has been a lot of noise surrounding The Conjuring House lately — legal developments, rumors, speculation, and a fair amount of misinformation circulating online. I wanted to sit down directly with our community, answer the questions you've been sending in, and give you a straightforward, honest look at where things actually stand. If you've been wondering whether this is finally over, what happens to the house from here, or what any of this means for the paranormal community, this is the conversation we needed to have.
I've been connected to The Conjuring House — the real Perron family home in Harrisville, Rhode Island — for longer than most people realize, and I have watched this location go through more transitions, controversies, and headline cycles than almost any other property in the paranormal world. The house gained worldwide attention through the 2013 film The Conjuring, which dramatized the experiences of the Perron family and the investigations conducted by Ed and Lorraine Warren. But long before it became a pop culture landmark, it was simply a location that warranted serious, methodical investigation. That's the lens I've always tried to bring to it, and that's the lens I brought to our live discussion.
The recent legal developments surrounding the property have generated a tremendous amount of speculation — some of it grounded in fact, a lot of it not. What I tried to do in this live stream was cut through the noise and speak plainly about what I actually know, what the situation looks like from where I'm standing, and what it might mean going forward for the house itself, for the people involved, and for those of us in the paranormal community who have a genuine interest in what that location represents. I'm not going to pretend I have all the answers, because I don't. But I do think it's important that someone who has been around this space for decades speaks honestly rather than letting rumor fill the void.
One thing I want to make clear — and this is something I've said my entire career — is that my approach to any location, including this one, starts with skepticism. I don't walk into a place looking to confirm a haunting. I walk in looking to rule out every possible conventional explanation first. The Conjuring House has a long, complicated history, and separating the genuine experiential accounts from the layers of mythology, media dramatization, and frankly commercial interest that have built up around it is not a simple task. During the live stream, I talked openly about the misinformation that has been spreading, because I think the paranormal community deserves better than sensationalism. We do ourselves no favors when we chase clicks over credibility.
As for what comes next — for the house, for those involved, and for any future investigations or access to the property — there are real questions still unresolved. I shared my perspective on what I believe the most likely outcomes are, what I'd like to see happen, and how the community can stay informed without getting swept up in every new rumor that surfaces. I also took questions directly from viewers, which is always the part of these live conversations I value most. The people watching aren't passive — they're researchers, investigators, curious minds, and longtime fans who deserve direct answers, not a filtered version of events. That's what I showed up to provide.
The Conjuring House is one of the most talked-about locations in paranormal history, and that means it's also one of the most misrepresented. My goal was simple: give you the facts as I understand them, address the misinformation head-on, and have an honest conversation about the road ahead. As always, I'll keep you updated as things develop.
