"Sometimes it's better to keep the genie in the bottle..."

As if the world wasn't scary enough right now, it has been announced that for one full well, the real-life house from The Conjuring will be live-streamed for the whole world to see.

From May 9-16, you can embrace your inner Ed and Lorraine Warren - the paranormal investigators sent to determine the cause of some strange goings-on back in a Burrillville, Rhode Island, farmhouse back in the 1970s. Their time there inspired the 2013 hit horror movie The Conjuring.

You can see the trailer for The Conjuring below (serious, even this freaks me out):

And if you've seen the movie, you'll know that it is one building that should have been burned down and extinguished with holy water.

Viewers will be able to get an "immersive and interactive look" inside the home, 24 hours a day for an entire week. The stream is all thanks to The Dark Zone, a community that "embraces the vast spectrum of all things paranormal". They will be installing cameras around the entire house for full coverage - but what exactly will we see?

(If that closet is still there, I'm throwing my laptop out of the window.)

The synopsis for the event - called The House Live - reads: "The world is on lockdown and so is the family living in the house that inspired The Conjuring. Watch as the Heinzen Family shows you how they live among the spirits while toughing out this worldwide pandemic. [...]

"From seances to conjurings, there is a full week's schedule of planned activities, investigations, and tests to perform, plus a full roster of paranormal celebrities who will be joining the live stream - virtually visiting with the family. "

The Conjuring - directed by James Wan - follows the Perron family, as they hire the famed "ghost hunters" Ed and Lorraine Warren to investigate the demonic presence lurking in their home. Personally speaking, it is the scariest movie I have ever seen, and I can categorically say that I no longer sleep with my foot hanging over the edge of the bed.

The infamous house now belongs to paranormal investigators Cory and Jennifer Heinzen, who revealed to NBC 10 last year that since moving in, they've reported "footsteps, knocks, and lights flashing in rooms... that don't have light there to begin with."

They also told the station: "We had a black mist in one of the rooms. It looks like smoke. It'll gather in one area and then it'll move."

Following on from the bizarre occurrences, the couple installed security cameras in an attempt to prove to the world that the home was possessed. A two-hour documentary following their story was released during Halloween last year.

But thanks to The Dark Zone you can see for yourself what lurks in the home.

On May 8, The Dark Zone will be launching a free preview ahead of the live-streamed event. From then on, viewers will have to pay $4.99 for a day's coverage, or $19.99 for the entire week.

A portion of proceeds will be going towards charities helping tackle the current outbreak.
