BOO!!!!Sorry, just trying to get you in theConjuringUniverse spirit. Above you can see a pic of scary doll Annabelle, nestled away in the room of cursed objects that resides in the home of demonologists Ed and Lorraine Warren. After Annabelle was introduced in the firstConjuringfilms, the two spin-off films that followed were both prequels, set before the Warrens acquired the demonic doll.Annabelle Comes Homewill change things up a bit. It’s set after the Warrens have locked Annabelle away – but you can be damn sure Annabelle will still find ways to wreak havoc.
InAnnabelle Comes Home, the Warrens' daughter Judy (Mckenna Grace) finds herself targeted by Annabelle. The Warrens will pop-up in the film as well, but I’m guessing they’ll head out on a case at some point, leaving Judy to deal with the doll. Judy’s two babysitters will be on hand as well to get in on all this horror action.Madison IsemanandKatie Sarifeplay the babysitters. (Side-note: who the heck hastwobabysitters at once?)

OK, maybe she has snuck cameos in my other recent films (which I won’t confirm or deny), BUT… she’ll very definitely be up front and center on this one! The real next chapter of THE CONJURING Universe. On June 28th #AnnabelleComesHome
Directed by Gary Dauberman.
If you’re craving someConjuringaction sooner than June, you might want to check outThe Curse of La Lloronanext month. It’s not being billed as anofficialfilm in theConjuringUniverse, but it’s definitely set in that world. It’s also not very good, I’m sorry to say. But most of theConjuringfilms have been enjoyable, and directorGary Daubermanworked on the script forItand the upcomingIt Chapter 2, so that’s a plus.
