The Rhode Island farmhouse that inspired the 2013 horror movie "The Conjuring" has been sold to a Boston developer who plans to keep it open to the public.

啟發2013年恐怖電影《厲陰宅》的羅德島農舍,已賣給波士頓一名房地產商,而他打算繼續對外開放這棟房舍。

The 18th century home was sold for $1.525 million, far higher than the $1.2 million asking price.

這棟18世紀的房舍以1525000美元(逾4500萬台幣)售出,遠比開價120萬美元高。

"This purchase is personal for me," said buyer Jacqueline Nunez, owner of WonderGroup LLC. "It’s not a real estate development. It’s around my own beliefs."

買家為WonderGroup有限責任公司老闆賈桂琳努涅茲。她說:「這樁買賣是出於個人考量,不是為了房產開發,而是關於我自身的信仰。」

Nunez plans to continue the paranormal business. Guests will be able to continue the nightly paranormal investigations, day tours will resume and there will be livestreamed events.

努涅茲打算延續這棟房舍的超自然商業活動,訪客將可進行夜晚超自然探險,白天觀光導覽也會恢復,還會有直播活動。

The movie wasn’t filmed at the home but was based on the experiences of a family that lived there in the 1970s.AP
