Yes, we’ve all seen the film - but, once again, the horror movie was based on real life events.
Gulp.
In the 1980s, the family of Carmen Snedeker reported some very strange incidents in their Connecticut home during the 1980s.
It soon transpired that their home had formerly been used as a funeral parlour… and that the spirits were deeply unhappy that the living had moved in.
Paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren were called in to examine the home, which they professed was infested with demons.
Speaking about the horror film that came later, Lorraine said the actual case was "much, much scarier than any movie could ever be."
