Northumberland Haunted Museum to host grandson of The Conjuring investigators

Chris McKinnell is an author, researcher and director of the Warren Legacy Foundation for Paranormal Research.

His grandparents, Ed and Lorraine Warren, became two of the most recognisable figures in paranormal history, investigating cases that would later inspire films including The Conjuring and The Amityville Horror.

The event, taking place at the Amble museum on Thursday, October 8 at 7pm, will mark the beginning of Chris’ series of appearances across the North East.

Rather than a large theatre style event, the evening has been designed as an informal opportunity for paranormal enthusiasts to meet Chris, hear him speak about his work and experiences and ask questions.

Chris will also be signing copies of his book, The Warren Legacy: What the Paranormal Teaches About Consciousness and Reality, with books available to purchase on the evening.

Northumberland Haunted Museum founder Michele Liddle said: “We are incredibly excited to welcome Chris to Amble, particularly as this will be the first event as he begins his appearances across the North East.

”We wanted this to be something a little different. The museum is a very intimate setting, so people will have the chance to actually meet Chris, hear from him and ask questions rather than simply watching from the back of a large venue.

Admission is completely free, but advance booking through the Northumberland Haunted Museum website.

Michele added: “From the beginning, we have wanted the museum to be accessible and to give people opportunities to explore history and the paranormal regardless of their circumstances.”
