What Is The Conjuring House?

The Conjuring House is the modern name for the Old Arnold Estate, the real farmhouse that inspired the movie The Conjuring. Built in 1736 in Harrisville, Rhode Island, it became internationally known after the 2013 film dramatized the Perron family’s reported experiences there in the 1970s. Today the property is privately owned, under active restoration, and preserved as one of America’s most recognized historic farmhouses. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Warner Bros., New Line Cinema, or any film studio.
