Join PRS and NESPR for a once-in-a-lifetime event, where select items from the Warrens Occult Museum will be housed inside West Virginia State Penitentiary… including the REAL Annabelle.
AN EVENT HELD BY PRSE LLC.
PRS is returning to the legendary West Virginia State Penitentiary (as featured on “Paranormal State”). This time, they’re also bringing along NESPR (the world-renowned team founded by Ed & Lorraine Warren) as well as select items from the Warrens Occult Museum. One of these items is none other than one of the most haunted objects in modern history… the real-life Annabelle.
This will be the first time in decades that people will be able to investigate with Annabelle at a haunted location outside of Connecticut.
Because of the high demand and interest in this event, we will be offering two ticketed experiences… first, we are offering a weekend experience ticket, where attendees/investigators will get to investigate WVP for two overnights. Secondly, we will also offer day passes, who may want to come to the museum to learn about - and see - the real Annabelle.
Full Weekend Experience (limited to 40): Our full experience will run Thursday night - Sunday morning, where we will spend time getting to know one another through a dinner and meet-and-greet, host a couple workshops and then plan for our overnight investigations. On Friday and Saturday night, we will stay overnight at the prison, investigating various levels as well as doing different experiments. This also includes investigating the prison with the Warrens’ haunted museum artifacts.
Saturday Day Pass: For those who just want to visit the location to see the items and take their picture with Annabelle, we will also be offering day passes.
SOME HIGHLIGHTS ABOUT THIS EVENT
The REAL Annabelle doll and other objects from The Warrens Occult Museum will be inside WVP
Some of the most famous items from the Warrens Occult Museum (including the real Annabelle) will be on display inside West Virginia State Penitentiary. Attendees/investigators will have the opportunity to not only investigate the prison, but also the area where the items are stored. This will be the first time Annabelle has ever traveled to WVP and it will also be the first time people will have the chance to participate in an investigation around Annabelle outside of Connecticut.
Please note: Out of caution and in the interest of safety for all those attending, NESPR is bringing Father Bob Bailey, a Roman Catholic priest who is knowledgeable in the field of the supernatural. Father Bob Bailey has also appeared on “Paranormal State,” and is a dear friend to PRS. He will be present for the whole weekend.
Day Passes will also be available if you just want to travel to WVP to check out the museum.
INVESTIGATE WVP FOR TWO WHOLE NIGHTS!
In our experience, we believe we get the most activity (and most out of the experience) if we get to investigate a location for multiple nights.
For this event, attendees will join us for two overnight investigations on Friday and Saturday. Every attendee will get to investigate for 5-6 hours a night.
Investigate with a team of experienced investigators. Whether this is your first time investigating or you are a seasoned investigator (or somewhere in between), just know that our team will be there to help guide you along the way. The team includes Ryan Buell, director of PRS, Father Bob Bailey, a Roman Catholic priest, Dan Rivera and Chris Gilloren, trained members of NESPR and Wade Kirby, a lifelong friend to the Warrens and investigator.
Participate in Experiments. Since West Virginia State Penitentiary is so large, we will run a variety of experiments throughout the weekend that you can learn about and also sign up to participate in. Some of these experiments include: investigating the Warrens Occult items, Ganzfeld Experiment, Estes Method, the FEAR Walk and much more!
Be a part of a safe and supportive group that loves to explore the paranormal!
One of the things that PRS events prides itself in are safe and supportive spaces. If anyone is coming alone, or if it’s your first time investigating, we fully welcome you and will do everything in our power to help you feel supported the entire way.
Most of our regular attendees have started off traveling to one of our events alone and they have made life-long friends.
Some of the ways we like to enhance our attendee experience:
Meet-And-Greet And Social Time. We know it can feel overwhelming to travel to an event and meet a bunch of strangers for the first time. We offer time where we sit with newcomers to get to know them. Many of our regular attendees also go out of their way to get to know newcomers.
Collaborative Experience. Although we do have a schedule outline for our events, we regularly take in feedback and talk as a group to help make sure everyone is having a great experience. Since this is a paranormal investigation, we will regularly meet before, during and after each investigation night to share experiences and discuss what we can try differently for the next night.
