For a while now, comedian Matt Rife has been an internet sensation and Netflix star, but he became Rhode Island famous through two eye-catching moves this year:
He bought a residential compound on a reservoir in North Smithfield and he made an at-least-theoretical offer to buy The Conjuring House as the owner of the infamous Burrillville haunted house descended into controversy.
But what should we expect from the 29-year-old this coming year?
He has launched his nationwide Stay Golden Tour, which will close the year Dec. 31 at Boston’s TD Garden. The tour, which includes some dates in Canada, hits spots such as Honolulu, Philadelphia, Chicago, Detroit and Kansas City, plus two shows in New York’s Madison Square Garden.
Was Matt Rife going to buy The Conjuring House?
The idea that Rife might have made an offer to buy The Conjuring House wasn’t completely out of left field. In 2023, he spent a night in the house, some of it alone, to make a video for friend Elton Castee’s YouTube channel, “Overnight.”
