Deception Of The Fallen Angels (Demons) Posing As Aliens & UFOs


The following video suggests and may confirm the theories that the anti-christ would rise up out of the Vatican. Also, may confirm theories that this site has already questioned and answered that the aliens, so called alien beings were indeed not created by God the Father of Heaven and Earth, but Satan and his followers and they have been planning, plotting, waiting and organizing their re-entry into our world. This period is often called the beginning of the Tribulation, the Introduction of a New Era as the Mayan calendar put it. 

As always, I urge you to watch, read, learn and make your conclusion. Life's greatest gift is choice.

Astral Projection: Truth of Fiction?

Insidious Part I and II have, in my opinion, done a great job of glorifying the supernatural and making an entertaining introduction to the discussion of astral projection. Can, we as humans, as so much of the content, including the title of this site, really actually sleep and project ourselves into someone else's mind? It has been debated and argued and written about since the beginning of our time.

We so badly long to be more than what we are. It's the "god" gene in us. Just take a look at a few of these examples:

I must go on boasting. Though there is nothing to be gained by it, I will go on to visions and revelations of the Lord. I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven—whether in the body or out of the body I do not know, God knows. And I know that this man was caught up into paradise—whether in the body or out of the body I do not know, God knows— and he heard things that cannot be told, which man may not utter.

The hand of the Lord was upon me, and he brought me out in the Spirit of the Lord and set me down in the middle of the valley; it was full of bones. And he led me around among them, and behold, there were very many on the surface of the valley, and behold, they were very dry. And he said to me, “Son of man, can these bones live?” And I answered, “O Lord God, you know.” Then he said to me, “Prophesy over these bones, and say to them, O dry bones, hear the word of the Lord. Thus says the Lord God to these bones: Behold, I will cause breath to enter you, and you shall live. ...

There shall not be found among you anyone who burns his son or his daughter as an offering, anyone who practices divination or tells fortunes or interprets omens, or a sorcerer or a charmer or a medium or a necromancer or one who inquires of the dead, for whoever does these things is an abomination to the Lord. And because of these abominations the Lord your God is driving them out before you. You shall be blameless before the Lord your God,

Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, ...

You, however, are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if in fact the Spirit of God dwells in you. Anyone who does not have the Spirit of Christ does not belong to him.

After this I looked, and behold, a door standing open in heaven!

Question:

Is astral projection "wrong" in God's eyes?

"I've recently been reading about lucid dreaming, OBEs, and astral projection and whatnot, and I'm pretty interested in trying astral projection.. Some things I've read have said that it's "wrong" and stuff like that shouldn't be messed with, but other things say God gave us spirits just like eyes and mouths and we astral project every night and it's not wrong.. I'm just a bit confused. I'm not into the Occult and witchcraft and Shamanism or whatever the heck is out there, I am a Christian. I would really like to try astral projection, but I don't want to be messing around with things that could be considered "evil" or whatever." - Whittybee, Yahoo.com Ask Member since 2011

Answer:
"There are no direct prohibitions against astral projection in the Bible, but it does warn against contacting spirits, and there are numerous warnings against divination. Scriptures to consider about that are Deuteronomy 18:10,11, Leviticus 19:31 and Isaiah 8:19,20. I think that from a Christian point of view those are not things to be messing with. The main reason it is wrong is that it putting faith in things other than in God. Pray about it." - notofthisworld, Yahoo.com Ask Member since 2009


So now that we got the moral and faith issue asked and answered, let's continue. We know now from the confirmations on this site: A. ghosts in the sense that it is a passed on human, friend, loved one, etc. is NOT real. Humans DO NOT have that ability. Never have-never will. B. Spiritual beings that dwell in that realm are the only ones that can directly impact the mind body and spirit in the manner that Insidious writers portray or any other fiction you may find out there. C. Spirits that torment or seek to kill, steal or destroy are purely evil. They are the spirits of Fallen or Outcast beings from outside this Earth that were placed here as punishment during the banish and eradication of Satan and his followers. Do NOT be fooled. There is NO SUCH THING as human ghosts. The soul does NOT have that ability.

However! Because we're human and long and desire to be a million times more, have come up with ways for centuries to enchant, enlighten and enhance our current capabilities. I urge you to take extreme caution before indulging in any mental, physical or spiritual practice as all actions and outcomes can have serious side effects. With that being said, I have posted a couple of interesting articles below that you may feel free to review, comment on and share with others.

Top 10 Astral Projection Questions Answered

A lot of people seem to find my blog while searching for astral projection, and while I do have a fair number of articles on the topic, I’ve decided to create a top 10 list of the most common questions I’m asked. That way I can just refer people to this article in the future. Enjoy!
1. Is astral projecting dangerous?
I would have to say yes, it can be. You can encounter beings that will drain your energy or cause you psychological harm. However, if you know how to protect yourself, if you can keep your vibration high, if you are skilled at psychic self defense, and you can keep your fear in check, then you can have a safe astral experience.
It’s like asking me if it’s safe to fly in an airplane. If you’re inside the plane, with your seat belt on, with your tray table in the upright position, and you’re familiar with safety procedures in case of a crash, then air travel is safe. If you’re going to try to stand up on the wing of the plane with super glue on your shoes, arms outstretched, yelling, “I’m the king of the world” then good luck.
2. How can I initiate an out of body experience?
There are many procedures and techniques. My personal technique and advice is to master lucid dreaming first, because it will teach you how to keep your mind conscious while your body is asleep. This will then allow you to wake your mind when you are sleeping, which will likely put you in a sleep paralysis situation, which will then make it easy peasy to leave your body. It’s not the only method, but it’s the one I used to become proficient at astral projection so it’s the one I teach.
You can also try waking yourself up around 4am, staying up and in your bed for about 20 – 30 minutes, then going back to sleep which will often trigger a lucid dream, which will trigger sleep paralysis (if you do it right) which will then allow you to separate from your body.
And overall, it takes practice, intent, and patience.
3. If I dream that I’m flying, is that astral projection?
No, you’re just dreaming that you’re flying. If you wake up in your bed, then astral project, then go flying, then you are astral projecting. But if you’re in some random dream and you take to the skies, you are not astral. You are simply having a flying dream. But if you can master flying dreams, it’s easier to become proficient at flying while out of body, so go ahead and practice having those flying dreams.
4. Once I feel the tingling sensation and/or hear the high pitched whine in my head then what do I do?
Once you feel that, you are separated but still inside your body. It’s time to stretch yourself up and out. You can either follow your arms out, or some people like to roll out like you’re rolling onto the floor, and other people seem to go out feet first. It takes a lot of inner will to stretch up out of your body. The first few times you may only get an arm out. It will feel like you’re walking through mud. Just keep going.
The other thing I used to do with great success is teleport out at that point. So first you achieve separation, then you simply put yourself somewhere else, like on the roof of your house, or the nearby corner of your street. Time and space function completely differently on the astral plane. You do not have to stretch out of your body. You can simply separate and teleport. Yep, it’s nifty.
5. What or who are the entities waiting for me when I separate out of my body? Can they hurt me?
More often than not, when you separate, you’re going to feel fear. And the entities you see and hear while this is happening are not the nicest welcoming committee on the block. I’ve seen and heard some creatures that would make you pee your pants. You have to raise your vibration to get past them. Think of it like changing the channel. Go to the “love” and “gratitude” station. Call for your angels to come help you. Or call for your guides. Don’t tolerate astral bullies. Turn your back on them and tell them where they can stick themselves. If you don’t, they will begin feeding on your energy like you’re a banana cream pie.
6. Can I spy on living people while I’m astral?
You naughty person! But yes, you will see living people while you are astral. Most likely they won’t know you’re there, unless they’re super intuitive. Respect people’s privacy. It’s also a lot more difficult than you’d imagine to go spy on someone you don’t know. As soon as you’re astral, you’re different. Your priorities are different. It will take a great deal of concentration and will to go visit someone unless you have a strong close bond with them. But yes, you can make your rounds. Be good and responsible. Don’t be creepy astral guy!
7. Can I talk to my spirit guides on the astral plane?
People ask me this a lot. Going to the astral plane to talk to your guides is like sitting down in the middle of the freeway in the lotus position to meditate. You can technically do it, but it’s not the safest place to be opening up like that. As soon as you open up you’re going to get run over by everything in the vicinity. While you’re astral you need to stay sharp and on the lookout for astral piranha. If you want to talk to your guides, meditate while you’re awake or invite them to a lucid dream where you control the environment. Astral projection is like walking into a rough bar at night. Protect yourself.
8. Can someone take over your body while you’re astral?
No. Your astral cord is like a bookmark, it holds your place. Nothing and no one can take your body while you’re out. That isn’t to say that something can’t be standing right next to it and when you want to go back to your body it tries to tell you that you don’t. Don’t listen to those blokes. They are not nice. You are allowed to go back to your body anytime you want. Simply will yourself back, or step back into your body when you’re ready to come back.
9. Can I die on the astral plane?
Well this is an interesting question. If anyone HAS died while astral projecting they’ve never been able to report it. So I think technically I’d have to say “I don’t know.” I have never died on the astral plane, and I’ve been attacked by some humdingers. This is why I’m saying only project if you really feel you have to, and stay safe while projecting.
10. What can you do on the astral plane?
When you’re out of your body there is more than one plane you can visit. If you stay on the prime material plane, you’ll just fly around your house, look in on your loved ones, freak out the cat, and maybe fly down the street.
You can also move yourself to a higher plane, where spirits and angels dwell. Go have a lovely chat with them. Get the tour, it’s great.
You can move through time, but only as an observer. If you think you’re going to go back in time and kill Hitler, don’t bother. It won’t work.
You can visit other planes that aren’t as compatible with your frequency or energy. When you do this, you will lose your sight, your hearing will likely be enhanced, and you’ll be really putting yourself at risk of getting attacked and drained. Only go to other planes with a strong guide.
You can visit with other astral friends if they can go astral at the same time. Pick a spot to meet on the prime material plane and arrange a time to meet. Then wait. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t.
And you can engage in astral sex, which I’m sure doesn’t interest you in the slightest. Oh? It does? Read my article on astral ecstasy then (if you’re over 18).
Be safe out there! I don’t want to hear that any of you have crossed over while out of body. Now go get ‘em tigers!

Astral projectionPeople for centuries have been astral projecting, it has been documented by the ancient Egyptians and Greeks as being a method to experience something beyond our physical realm.
Our consciousness holds no limits, it is designed for exploration and we as humans possess an astral body to do exactly that. So by projecting your awareness to a different place in time, you’re able to have an out of body experience and visit places beyond your wildest dreams. 
To learn a little more about astral projection, we looked at Clinical Hypnotherapist, Steve G. Jones’ rope technique.
If you’re totally new to astral projection this is totally safe. Just relax, keep a clear mind, and know that you always have full control. If you want to go back into your body you need only to think about it.
This particular technique was pioneered by Robert Bruce.
Step 1: Relax
Relax your mind and body. You may choose to meditate or perform a series of very deep breaths. In and out, always very slowly. Make sure you inhale deeply and that your breaths are not shallow. If you know a good body relaxation meditation, use it. If not, you can tense your muscles and release them one at a time. Work from your toes to the top of your head.
Step 2: Get Into A Hypnotic State
After you feel fully relaxed, you need to enter a hypnotic state where your mind is at the edge of sleep and no further. Now lie down and focus on an object. Stare at it until you can visualize it perfectly even with your eyes closed.
Step 3: Get Into A Deeper State Of Relaxation
Now it’s time to enter a deeper state of relaxation. Your eyes are still closed and you are still visualizing your chosen object. But now you look around you with your eyes closed. Gaze into the darkness. After a while you may see light patterns dance across your eyes. Just ignore them and they will go away. Once they disappear you’ve entered a deeper state of relaxation. You will be so relaxed that you are no longer aware of your physical body. Once you reach this level, it’s time for step 4.
Step 4: Enter A State Of Vibration
This is the most vital step and it’s when you enter into a state of vibration. This state may take longer if you are new to this. When you do begin to feel the vibrations, your astral body has begun to leave your physical body. Just acknowledge this and feel the vibrations.
Step 5: Control The Vibrations
Focus on the vibrations as they travel throughout your body. Using your willpower, control them with your mind. As you feel them, try to control the frequency of the waves as well as stopping and starting them. Once you master changing the frequency and you are sure that you can induce them when needed, you’re ready for step 6.
Step 6: Imagine The Rope
Here is where you will exert your control and willpower. Imagining that there is a long rope hanging right above you. Without opening your eyes or moving your physical body, visualize yourself reaching up towards the rope. Once you grab a hold of the rope, bring your hand back into your physical body, slow down the vibrations, and end the session.
After you become fully alert and awakened, move on to step 7.
Step 7: Rinse And Repeat – Now Let’s Do The Whole Body
Now that you’ve done a partial separation you’re ready to try the whole body. Repeat the previous 6 steps but this time, don’t stop at just one hand. Imagine your other hand coming out of your physical body and reaching for the rope. Slowly place hand over hand on the rope as if you were pulling yourself up.
You may feel a little dizzy at this point and the vibrations will buzz at a higher frequency. Often people here feel paralyzed or shrink back into their physical bodies. But concentrate on climbing the rope. Don’t stop until you feel your entire self separating from your body. Finally you’re free! You will find yourself hovering over your body at this point.

The Conjuring-The True Story

History of the Perron family and the Harrisville Haunting (true story behind the movie The Conjuring)

// July 21st, 2013 // Violent Ghosts
Oldest surviving photograph of the Harrisville Haunted home

Ed and Lorraine Warren

The Harrisville Haunted houseEd and Lorraine Warren had been investigating paranormal activity since the early 1950’s. During their decades-long careers, they investigated over 4,000 hauntings, including the well-known Amityville Haunting where they were recognized as the first psychic investigators to step onto the scene. The 2013 film, The Conjuring, was based on their terrifying investigation of the Perron family and their haunted farmhouse in Harrisville, Rhode Island. Known variously as the “Harrisville Haunting” or the “Perron Family Haunting”, the Warrens would say that their investigation of the Perron family’s haunting was their “most intense, compelling, disturbing and significant investigation” of their careers. Roger Perron, his wife Carolyn, and their five children Andrea (Annie), Nancy, Christine, Cindy, and April endured a decade of torture from the spirits that occupied their country home.

The Harrisville Haunting – the hauntings begin

The Harrisville Haunted houseSeeking to move the children to a quieter home life in the country, Roger and Carolyn Perron purchased their dream home in the winter of 1970. The Old Arnold Estate was 200 acres in size and one of the original plantations in the area surveyed by colonist John Smith in 1680 and deeded to Roger Williams for the formation of the state of Rhode Island. Located on Round Top Road in Harrisville, Rhode Island, the 14-room “lovely, charming” country home was built in 1736 on a beautiful plot of land with plenty of room for their five children, all girls, to roam about and play. Nancy and Christine Perron shared one room, Cindy and April another, and Andrea had a room all to herself – except on nights when, as Andrea put it, the sisters “came crawling into bed with her, trembling and crying in terror”.
The Perron family began to notice something was amiss from the first day they stepped into their lovely new home. Later it would be learned that eight generations of families had lived, and died, in the Old Arnold Estate including Mrs. John Arnold who at the age of 93, hung herself from the rafters of the barn. Other unfortunate losses of life on the estate included several suicides (hangings, poisonings), the rape and unsolved murder of eleven-year-old girl Prudence Arnold (later presumed to have been murdered by a farm hand), two sudden drownings in the creek located near the house, and four men who mysteriously froze to death on the land. It did not take long before the Perrons’ understood why the previous seller advised them on the day that they moved into the house, “leave the lights on at night.”

The many friendly ghosts

The Harrisville Haunted houseAt first the ghosts, or demon spirits as the Warren investigators thought of them, were harmless. Described variously as opaque or somewhat solid in appearance, there were many spirits present in the old homestead. One ghost smelled of flowers while another would gently kiss the girls goodnight in their beds every night. Another appeared to be a small, young male that the girls would watch, mesmerized, push toy cars about the room propelled by an invisible hand.
Rafters in the basement of the Perron's Harrisville Haunted houseOne apparition, presumably a female ghost, was a welcome presence in the home. The Perron’s would often hear sweeping noises coming from the kitchen. When they entered the room, they would find the broom had been moved to a different spot in the room with a neat pile of newly swept dirt sitting in the middle of the floor, waiting to be deposited in the trashcan.
“Manny” was another spirit that the young Perron children loved. Manny was believed to be the spirit of Johnny Arnold, who had committed suicide by hanging himself in the attic of the house in the 1700’s. Manny would appear before the children, often standing nearby quietly watching the children going about their daily activities, a crooked smile on his face, amused at the children’s’ play. If eye contact was made with Manny, he would withdraw from sight just as suddenly as he had appeared.
In addition to ghostly entities, the Perrons’ witnessed many other odd and unexplained phenomena. Beds would levitate several inches off of the floor, telephone handsets would hover in the air and slam down onto the phone base when someone entered the room, and various household objects would glide about the house on their own. Often chairs would be pulled suddenly from beneath an unsuspecting guest and pictures would tumble from the walls. The Perrons’ once reported seeing an orange ooze blood and a wall dissolve into nothingness.

Some spirits, aka demons, were not so nice

The Arnold Family cemetery where Bathsheba is buriedNot all the ghosts at Harrisville were welcome visitors. Some would yank the girls’ legs and hair during the middle of the night. Others would loudly bang the front door of the home with such force that the entire house would shake. Doors would slam shut on their own while others would stay frozen in place, unable to be shut no matter how much force was applied to them. One entity in the home routinely kept the family awake as it continually cried out in the night, “Mama! Maaaama!” while another apparition tortured 8-year-old Cindy telling her over and over, “there are seven dead soldiers buried in the wall”. One of the Perron’s recalled a small, delicate spirit, appearing to be about 4 years old, roaming the house crying, calling for her mother.
One of the spirits was so evil, the Perron family to this day will not disclose what it did to them. Andrea Perron, who authored a book about their experiences in the home (House of Darkness House of Light), hinted that the unmentionable spirit may have molested some of the young girls. When asked about this spirit during an interview, she avoided the question, telling the reporter:
“Let’s just say there was a very bad male spirit in the home – with five little girls.”

The baddest of them all – Bathsheba Sherman

Gavesite of Bathsheba ShermanThe most horrid ghost in the home targeted Mrs. Perron specifically. Known as Bathsheba, the entity was thought to have been the ghost of Bathsheba Sherman, a practicing Satanist and witch who had lived in the home in the early 19th century and died there after hanging herself from a tree behind the barn. The Perrons’ were not a religious family. Weak in faith, it was theorized to be a primary factor for the particularly violent and active nature of Bathsheba’s treatment of the Perron family. Credence to this theory is strengthened when it was learned that the only previous resident not to report any odd occurrences was a local minister. Lorraine Warren explained was this was important:
“You only have your faith as your protection. I always had my faith. God protecting me allowed me to do this. At that particular time, the Perrons’ did not have religion – and it was very dangerous.”
Carolyn Perron looking out a window of the homeBathsheba was a vile, hideous creature described as having a face “similar to a desiccated bee hive” covered in cobwebs with no real human features other than vermin crawling from crevices etched into the wrinkled skin of her face. Her head, round and gray, sat “leaning off to one side” as if her neck had been broken and an evil stench permeated the room when she was present.
Bathsheba Thayer was born in 1812 in Rhode Island and married fellow Rhode Islander Judson Sherman on March 10, 1844. When alive Bathsheba had lived a life of solitude, an outcast of the community she lived in after being accused of killing her young baby as a sacrifice to Satan. The baby’s body was found to have been impaled in the head with a sharp object. Lacking evidence, the case was eventually dropped. Bathsheba was believed to have had three other children, none of whom survived past the age of four. Her children may not have been her only victims. Bathsheba was also known to have brutalized the staff often starving and beating them for minor infractions. When Bathsheba died on May 25, 1885, the coroner wrote that he had never seen anything like it – her emaciated body had eerily solidified, seemingly turned to stone.
It was easily recognized that Bathsheba had her favorites in the household.  She tortured Carolyn Perron (one of the daughters, Cindy, was often a frequent target) while lusting after Mr. Perron. During their stay, equipment in the home frequently broke. Roger Perron would take the broken machinery down to the cellar to repair. While working, he often felt Bathsheba touching him, gently caressing his neck or running her hands down his back. But while longing for Mr. Perron, Bathsheba abhorred Carolyn. It was clear that Bathsheba wanted Carolyn out of the house.
The bed of one of the Perron girlsAn August 1977 article in the local Providence Journal described the appearance of Bathsheba:
“Mrs. Perron said she awoke before dawn one morning to find an apparition by her bed: the head of an old woman hanging off to one side over an old gray dress. There was a voice reverberating, ‘Get out. Get out. I’ll drive you out with death and gloom.’”
In the beginning, Bathsheba’s treatment of Carolyn was merely “cruel”. Carolyn would be pinched, slapped, or have objects thrown about her. Her greatest fear, fire, was soon discovered by the entity and used repeatedly to strike terror in her as Bathsheba banged torches against her bed while demanding that she leave the home immediately.
As time progressed, the attacks grew harsher. In one instance, Carolyn was lying on the couch when she felt a sharp pain in the calf of her leg. She examined her leg and found a large, bleeding puncture wound that looked “as if a large sewing needle had impaled her skin”. Later, after threats failed to motivate Carolyn to leave, Bathsheba took a different tack and attempted to invade Carolyn from within. Believing that Carolyn had been possessed, the Perrons’ called in psychic investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren to assist them.

Ed and Lorraine Warren offer to assist

Psychic investigator Lorraine WarrenEd and Lorraine Warren are often thought of as “the original paranormal investigators”. For decades they had helped investigate hauntings and demonic possessions across the country. In many of their cases, they were able to convince the Vatican to provide exorcisms of the spirits that they found. The Perrons’ heard of the Warrens after one of their many public speaking engagements and pleaded with them to help save their mother. By this time, it was believed that Bathsheba has physically possessed Carolyn Perron, an assessment that Ed Warren could not disagree with.
Daughter Andrea Perron remembered the night the exorcism took plae:
“The night I thought I saw my mother die was the most terrifying night of all. She spoke in a voice we had never heard before and a power not of this world threw her twenty feet into another room.”
Unfortunately, the true story of the Perron family’s haunting ended differently than The Conjuring movie portrayed. In reality, the Warrens were not successful in ridding the Perron family of their hell-bent tormentors. Carolyn Perron recalled that “dreadful night” and explained that even though the Warrens’ intentions were good, they essentially found that things “got worse around them”. As the situation spun out of control, Roger Perron demanded that the Warrens leave the premises immediately.

The Perrons’ flee their haunted home

Perron's Harrisville Haunted houseThe Perrons’ soon learned that every occupant (with the exception of a local minister and his family) of the old Arnold Estate had reported supernatural phenomena on the homestead. In fact, the owner just prior to the Perrons’ had hired a contractor to renovate the house. The contractor had been busily renovating the home when he suddenly stopped work and fled. It was reported that he had left the home screaming leaving behind his tools and his car. The owners never moved in and the home sat vacant for several years before the Perrons’ discovered it was on the market.
Despite their unfortunate circumstances, financial constraints kept the Perrons’ rooted in place for 10 long years. Unable to flee, they endured the inconvenience of the “friendly” spirits and the torture the malevolent ghosts bestowed upon them. Finally, in 1980, at the insistence of Carolyn, the Perrons’ were financially able to vacate the home. They moved to Georgia.

Aftermath and additional notes

The Warrens

Ed Warren died in 2006, but Carolyn Warren is still actively investigating paranormal cases. She runs the private Occult Museum in the back of her house in Monroe, Connecticut, with the help of her son-in-law, Tony Spera. Admission is open to the public (with prior reservations) with a small charge for admittance.

The Perrons’

Andrea Perron wrote a book of their experiences in the home, House of Darkness House of Light. She tours the country giving lectures and recollections of her time in the haunted home.

Current owners

According to Andrea Perron, the current owner, Norma Sutcliffe, who purchased the home in 1983, stated that she, her husband Gerry, and various visitors to the home have had paranormal experiences in the farmhouse, including the door banging in the front hall, sounds of people talking in another room, the sounds of footsteps scurrying around the house, and one odd instance when her husband’s chair began vibrating in the study room. They claim to have also witnessed a glowing blue light “shoot across the bedroom”, “fog” floating through the rooms of the home, and vibrations in the walls so intense they felt the house was going to come apart. Several visitors to their home have independently reported seeing an elderly woman, hair in a bun, moving silently throughout the house.

The Perron family and the actors that played them in The ConjuringThe making of The Conjuring movie

James Wan’s movie, The Conjuring, was based on the facts surrounding the Harrisville Haunting. The Conjuring screenplay was based on personal case files from the Warrens as well as information that Carolyn Perron provided to the producers. Lorraine Warren acted as a consultant during the filming and appeared on set to offer guidance as the movie was being filmed.

The Conjuring Doll (featured in the movie)

The doll shown in the movie was based on a separate case from 1970 that paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren handled, the case of the Annabelle doll. Warrens.net explains the case:
“A nursing student named Donna received the Raggedy Ann Doll from her mother as a birthday present. Shortly thereafter, Donna and her roommate Angie began to notice that the doll would switch positions and move around their apartment on its own. Donna and Angie then began to notice childlike messages that had been scribbled onto parchment paper, which they concluded must have come from the doll. Things escalated when their friend Lou, who had been staying with them, claimed that the doll tried to strangle him during the night. On another occasion, Lou believed that the possessed Annabelle doll was responsible for bloody claw-like scratches that mysteriously appeared across his chest when he went to investigate a noise coming from Donna’s room.
The real Annebelle doll and the one used in The ConjuringIn an attempt to rectify the situation, a séance was held. The medium informed them that the doll was possessed by a young girl named Annabelle, who had resided on the property before the apartments were built. When she was just seven-years-old, Annabelle’s lifeless body was found in a field where the apartments now stood.
Ed and Lorraine Warren eventually came to investigate after being informed of the doll through a priest that Donna had contacted. At the recommendation of the Warrens, an exorcism of the apartment was performed, and at Donna’s request, the Warrens took the Annabelle doll into their possession where it still remains today.”

The center of paranormal activity in the home

It has been noted that the paranormal activity in the Perron home centered on Carolyn’s bedroom and the study room located directly below it. Interestingly, below the study, located in the cellar of the home, is an old well. Water was often used by the spirits to torment the family (toilets flushing, washers turning on, faucets running, etc.) and they began to wonder if any violent history had been associated with the old well. To date this question remains unanswered.

Bathsheba Sherman

The graveside of Bathsheba Sherman is located in a historic cemetery in downtown Harrisville, Rhode Island.  Although the headstone has been broken, it is clearly marked and easily visited by sightseers.
