The real-life home that inspired the 2013 horror film "The Conjuring" will be livestreamed, along with its inhabitants, for a whole week beginning May 9.

A community of filmmakers and paranormal "researchers" called the Dark Zone is responsible for the livestream, which aims to show the Heinzen family as they remain on lockdown in their supposedly haunted house.

The Heinzens bought the notorious Rhode Island house in 2019 and claim to have experienced strange occurrences in the home.

"Footsteps, knocks, we've had lights flashing in rooms," Cory Heinzen told the New York Post in 2019. "And when I say lights flashing in rooms, it's rooms that don't have light in there to begin with."

According to the Dark Zone's website, fans of "The Conjuring" will get "an immersive and interactive look inside" the home via the week-long livestream as owners Cory and Jennifer Heinzen — who say they work as paranormal investigators themselves — hold seances, Ouija board sessions, and speak with a variety of guests via video chat.

The guests include paranormal "experts" and authors, as well as Andrea Perron, who lived with her family in the home in the 1970s, and reportedly experienced paranormal events so traumatizing (including spirits that whispered to her and her sisters that there were "seven dead soldiers in the walls") that she and her family had to move out. Their experiences with the home, and with paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren, would go on to inspire "The Conjuring."

Cory Heinzen told the Post in 2019 that he didn't think any of the home's spirits were evil, but that he and Jennifer were still concerned.

"I don't have the feeling of anything evil, [but] it's very busy," he said. "You can tell there's a lot of things going on in the house."

Dark Zone's livestream of the "Conjuring" house begins May 8 with a free preview, but in order to keep watching, viewers will have to either pay $4.99 for a single day's access, or $19.99 for week-long access. According to their website, a portion of the proceeds will "be donated to COVID-19 charities."
