    @return bool|null

    See here:

    The datatype should be a valid PHP type (int, string, bool, etc), a class name for the type of object returned, or simply “mixed”. If you want to explicitly show multiple possible return types, list them pipe-delimited without spaces (e.g. “@return int|string”).
