The Early Years

Ed Warren grew up in a Haunted House in Connecticut from the young age of five until he was twelve he reflects. “My father, who was a police officer at the time would often say, “Ed, there's a logical reason for everything that happens in this house." but he never came up with that logical reason."

“My family would all go to bed and just around two to three o'clock in the morning, many times I would hear the closet door beginning to open up. At first I'd look into that closet and see only shapeless darkness, then slowly  I'd start to see a light beginning to form and it would morph into like a ball shape, sort of like a basketball and then I'd begin to see a face in that ball," " That is called a Ghost Globule. " 

"In that Globule was a face of an old woman, and she was not looking at all pleasant. The globule would then come out into my bedroom and then accompinied by audible footsteps and heavy breathing. The room would then became icy cold, an unnatural cold, a Psychic Cold, and I'm saying to myself, “Ed There's a logical reason for everything,” But by that time I was out of the bed and right between my mother and father in their bed.”

“ I'd see Lorraine coming in and we started talking, and we became friends. I was 16 at the time and she was 16, one night I walked her home and asked her for a date" And that's how it all got started.”
