The owner of the Conjuring House has been arrested on charges of driving under the influence in Rhode Island – NECN

The owner of the Rhode Island home that inspired the 2013 horror film “The Conjuring” was arrested Monday on drunken driving charges.

Bodycam footage released by police shows a white Lexus driving recklessly through the streets of Burriville, according to WJAR-TV.

Police say the driver, later identified as Jacqueline Nuñez, led police on a chase before eventually stopping on Wallum Lake Road. The police report stated that officers could smell alcohol on her breath and that she had bloodshot, glassy eyes.

“I had a few drinks and I’m living in the magic house,” Nuñez told police. She then asked officers if they normally handcuff people with a pair of Manhattans.

Police said Nuñez laughed during field sobriety tests. She was cited for driving under the influence, reckless driving and other traffic violations.

Nuñez purchased The Conjuring House in 2022. Although the 2013 film was not shot there, it was inspired by the events experienced by the family who lived in the house in the 1970s. Today it is open to the public for overnight stays and a popular attraction for paranormal adventurers.
