Annabelle Comes to the Rock Island Roadhouse Esoteric Expo

Kick off the 2025 spooky season, by attending the 3rd annual Rock Island Roadhouse Esoteric Expo.

With over 120 vendors joining us, from coast to coast, Rock Island Roadhouse Esoteric Expo is not only becoming the largest and most interactive paracon in the Midwest, but there is truly something for EVERY level of curiosity and experience.

We have every aspect of the paranormal covered. From ghost to bigfoot (cryptids), extraterrestrials, metaphysical, crystals, herbalism, astrology, mysticism, spiritualism, alternative healing practices, readings and much more.
One of the amazing opportunities that is being offered this year, Annabelle, from the Warren’s Occult Museum (Monroe, CT).

Annabelle, along with other haunted artifacts will be making their debut at the Rock Island Roadhouse for the Devil’s On The Run Tour, hosted by the New England Society for Psychic Research (NESPR) and TCD Paracon & Entertainment, LLC.

On display, will be the REAL Annabelle doll, one of the most dangerous artifacts collected by the most famous ghost hunters of all time, Ed & Lorraine Warren during their investigations into the paranormal. Annabelle is a Raggedy Ann doll responsible for the demonic attack that led to psychic injuries and the death of a young man involved in a motorcycle accident. Annabelle is the inspiration for the blockbuster trio of Annabelle movies in The Conjuring Universe film series. Other artifacts on display from the Warren Occult Museum include the “Shadow Doll,” “Satanic Worship Idol,” “Conjuring Mirror,” and many more! A movie prop Annabelle doll used in the film, Annabelle Comes Home, and donated by Warner Brothers as a gift to The Warren’s Occult Museum in 2019 will also be on hand!
The Warren Occult Museum is located in Monroe, CT at the home of Ed & Lorraine Warren. The Warrens established the New England Society for Psychic Research (NESPR) in 1952 to continue their work fighting evil and proving its existence. Their work continues today with a group of dedicated members and caretakers of the museum lead by the Warren's daughter and son-in-law, Tony and Judy Spera. The museum has been closed to the public for several years but the stories and museum are being brought to Rock Island to continue the Warren's work! Tony Spera himself will also be joining us.
