Investigating the Investigators: Paranormal Superstars Ed & Lorraine Warren [Murder Made Fiction Podcast]

The world of ghost hunting and paranormal investigation in the second half of the 20th century was dominated by one power couple. Demonologist Ed Warren and his clairvoyant wife Lorraine Warren traveled the world investigating various cases they would later make famous.

From Annabelle to Amityville, this duo claims to have consulted on 10,000 instances of  paranormal phenomena from hauntings and possessions to the occasional cryptid sighting.

After founding the New England Society for Psychic Research (NESPR), the Warrens embarked on a lucrative lecture series while writing books about their more prominent adventures. And all the while they’ve maintained their infamous museum filled with cursed, possessed, or otherwise dangerous objects.  

But were they devout researchers dedicated to helping others or opportunistic grifters out to line their own pockets? What skeletons might be lurking in the couple’s own closet and what would they do to protect their public image? In the latest episode of Bloody FM’s Murder Made Fiction Podcast, Jenn walks Joe through four decades of supernatural scamming from the couple’s humble beginnings to an ever-increasing cinematic universe.
