Organisations & Programmes

  • Lorraine Warren was a member of New England Society for Psychic Research — Lorraine co-founded NESPR with Ed and remained associated with it until her death in 2019.

Creatures & Figures

  • Lorraine Warren investigated The Amityville Horror — Lorraine Warren took part in a televised séance at the Amityville house on 6 March 1976, telling journalist Marvin Scott, "I hope this is as close to hell as I'll ever get"; the séance took place nearly two months after the Lutz family had already moved out, and the Warrens never met the family directly.

Objects & Artifacts

  • Lorraine Warren is credited with Annabelle Doll — The claim that the doll is demonically possessed and dangerous originates entirely from the Warrens' own published accounts and lectures; no independent investigator, physician, or witness account beyond the Warrens' has documented corroborating evidence of paranormal activity.
