Pictures. The films present a dramatized take on the real - life cases of Ed and Lorraine Warren, paranormal investigators and authors associated with prominent yet controversial cases of haunting. The main series follows their attempts to assist people who find themselves possessed by demonic spirits, while the spin - off films focus on the origins of some of the entities the Warrens have come across. The franchise currently consists of two films in the main series, The Conjuring ( 2013 ) and The Conjuring 2 ( 2016 ), both directed by James Wan, co-produced by Peter Safran and Rob Cowan, and co-written by Chad Hayes and Carey W. Hayes. The installments revolve around two of the many famous paranormal cases the Warrens have been a part of, with the first film depicting the case of the Perron family, who are experiencing disturbing events in their newly acquired house in Rhode Island, and the second entry focusing on the controversial case of the Enfield Poltergeist while briefly referencing the events that inspired The Amityville Horror. A third film in the main series is currently in development. The franchise also includes Annabelle ( 2014 ), a prequel directed by The Conjuring cinematographer John R. Leonetti and produced by Safran and Wan, which developed the origins of the doll of the same name before the Warrens came into contact with it at the start of the first film. An Annabelle prequel, Annabelle : Creation ( 2017 ), directed by David F. Sandberg, was also produced. A spin - off film, The Nun, is currently in post-production, based on a character introduced in The Conjuring 2. A further spin - off film, The Crooked Man, also based on a character introduced in The Conjuring 2, is in development. The two Conjuring films were met with generally positive reviews by both critics and horror fans, earning praise for Wan 's directing and main cast performances, particularly Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga 's on - screen chemistry as Ed and Lorraine. Critics also acknowledged the impact the films have had on popular culture as well as in the production of modern horror films. The first entry in the Annabelle film series received more mixed to negative reviews, being considered by many, mainly fans of the first picture, as an inferior film to its forerunner. Annabelle : Creation was met with generally positive reviews. The two main films and its two spin - offs have proven themselves to be successful at the box office, having combined earnings of over $1.2 billion worldwide, against a combined budget of $81.5 million, making it the third highest - grossing horror franchise in history, and one of the most critically acclaimed. The franchise 's success and interlinked films has led the media to make comparisons with the Marvel Cinematic Universe, with film critic Scott Mendelson of Forbes calling the franchise the `` first successful post-Marvel cinematic universe ''. The Conjuring Universe is the official name used by Warner Bros. for the series.

DeRosa - Grund made a recording of Warren playing back the tape and of their subsequent discussion. At the end of the tape, Warren said to DeRosa - Grund, `` If we ca n't make this into a film I do n't know what we can. '' DeRosa - Grund then described his vision of the film for Ed. DeRosa - Grund wrote the original treatment and titled the project The Conjuring. For nearly 14 years, he tried to get the film made without any success. He originally landed a deal to make the film at Gold Circle Films, the production company behind The Haunting in Connecticut, but a contract could not be finalized and the deal was dropped. DeRosa - Grund allied with producer Peter Safran, and sibling writers Chad and Carey W. Hayes were brought on board to refine the script. Using DeRosa - Grund 's treatment and the Ed Warren tape, the Hayes brothers changed the story 's point of view from the Perron family to that of the Warrens. The brothers interviewed Lorraine Warren many times over the phone to clarify details. By mid-2009, the property became the subject of a six - studio bidding war that landed the film at Summit Entertainment. However, DeRosa - Grund and Summit could not conclude the transaction and the film went into turnaround. DeRosa - Grund reconnected with New Line Cinema, who had lost in the original bidding war, and the studio ultimately picked up the film. On November 11, 2009, a deal was made between New Line and DeRosa - Grund 's Evergreen Media Group.

In his second collaboration with Wan, Patrick Wilson starred alongside Vera Farmiga in the main roles of Ed and Lorraine. Production commenced in Wilmington, North Carolina in February 2012, and scenes were shot in chronological order. The film focused on the Warrens ' 1971 case in which they investigated a witch 's curse at a farmhouse in Harrisville, Rhode Island. The Conjuring was released on July 19, 2013, to positive reviews and critical success, earning $318 million worldwide over a budget of $20 million, and becoming one of the most profitable horror films in history. The Conjuring 2 ( 2016 ) Main article : The Conjuring 2 In June 2013, it was reported that New Line Cinema was already developing a sequel, with both Farmiga and Wilson signed on to reprise their roles. On October 21, it was announced that Wan would return to direct the sequel and would make his first contribution as a writer in the franchise. Principal photography began in September 2015 in Los Angeles, and concluded in December 2015 in London. The film focused on the Enfield Poltergeist case in London in 1977, while briefly referencing the events that inspired The Amityville Horror. It was released on June 10, 2016, to positive reviews from both critics and audiences ; some agreed that the film was vastly superior to other horror sequels, while others debated whether the film had surpassed its predecessor in quality. Proving to be similarly successful to the first entry in the series, the film became another profitable addition to the franchise, having earned $320.3 million worldwide from a budget of $40 million, and becoming the second highest - grossing horror film of all time, following The Exorcist. The Conjuring 3 Regarding a potential third installment in The Conjuring series, Wan stated, `` There could be many more ( Conjuring ) movies because the Warrens have so many stories. '' Screenwriters Chad and Carey Hayes have also expressed interest in working on a story for another sequel. However, Wan stated that he may be unable to direct the film due to his commitments to other projects. He told Collider, `` Assuming we are lucky enough to have a third chapter, there are other filmmakers that I would love to sort of continue on the Conjuring world, if we are lucky enough. '' Wan has also stated that, if a third film was to be made, it would ideally take place in the 1980s. Wan later stated that the sequel could include lycanthropy, saying, `` Maybe we can go and do it like a classic American Werewolf in London style. That would be awesome ! The Warrens set against the backdrop of The Hound of Baskerville ( sic ). That would be awesome. '' In May 2017, Safran commented on the unlikelihood that a third installment would be a haunted house film. In June 2017, it was announced a third installment was in development, with The Conjuring 2 co-writer David Leslie Johnson hired to write the screenplay. In August 2017, Wan told Entertainment Weekly that the filmmakers have `` been working hard on The Conjuring 3 '', and that `` we 're in the midst of working on the script, and still hashing ( it ) out. We want to make sure that the script is in a really good place. With how much people have loved the first two ( Conjuring films ), I do n't want to rush in to the third one if possible ''. Annabelle series Annabelle ( 2014 ) Main article : Annabelle ( film ) A spin - off film, focusing on the origins of the Annabelle doll that was introduced in The Conjuring, was shortly announced after the release of its forerunner, mainly due to the film 's worldwide box office success, and positive reception towards the character.

The film was released worldwide on October 3, 2014, to major commercial success, becoming the 14th most profitable horror film in North America, despite receiving mixed to negative reviews from critics and fans alike.

Untitled Annabelle film ( 2019 ) In April 2018, Warner Bros. announced July 3, 2019, as the release date for an as - yet untitled new film in The Conjuring franchise. Later that month, it was announced that the film will be a third Annabelle film, with Gary Dauberman signed on to write and direct the film in his directorial debut.

Filming began in May 2017 in Bucharest, Romania. On August 12, 2017, Wan discussed a possibility for a Nun sequel and what its storyline may be : `` I do know where potentially, if The Nun works out, where The Nun 2 could lead to and how that ties back to Lorraine 's story that we 've set up with the first two Conjurings and make it all come full circle. '' The film is set to release on September 7, 2018. The Crooked Man ( tba ) On May 31, 2017, Safran said there was a possibility of a Crooked Man film.

Entertainment Weekly obtained documents in which the owners affirm various invasions and ratify that they have found numerous objects affiliated with satanic cults. The lawsuit also reveals that the current owners bought the house in 1987 and lived `` in peace '' until 2013. Both owners had been seeking for unspecified damages. When questioned, a spokesperson for Warner Bros. declined to comment on the issue. Gerald Brittle, author of a book about the Warrens called The Demonologist, filed a $900 million lawsuit on March 29, 2017, against Warner Bros., New Line Cinema, James Wan and others, claiming that he had the exclusive rights to the Warrens ' story and that it had been illegally stolen by the studios and producers. The case was scheduled to go to trial on April 16, 2018, with a Warner Bros. spokesperson commenting, `` We 're pleased the Court significantly narrowed the case and look forward to addressing the remaining claims at summary judgment. Mr. Brittle 's claims are not only without merit, but contradict Mr. Brittle 's prior admissions in other failed lawsuits concerning The Conjuring movies ''. However, on December 13, 2017, Warner Bros. settled the lawsuit, revealing that Tony DeRosa - Grund, the producer of the original film, was the `` mastermind '' behind the lawsuit, without Brittle ever having been involved. A spokesperson commented, `` New Line has contended all along that DeRosa - Grund was the mastermind behind the lawsuit, was controlling and directing the lawsuit, and had attempted to enter into secret side deals with Brittle. '' Brittle himself stated, `` Mr. DeRosa - Grund has been controlling this litigation from the start. (... ) Based on a review of text messages between Mr. DeRosa - Grund and my attorney, I understand that he even threatened my attorneys that if they sent information from me without him seeing it first they would be fired. '' Brittle went into further detail in the settlement. This follows repeated failed lawsuits by DeRosa - Grund to Warner Bros. for claims of owed millions of dollars from the franchise, to the point where he was getting into trouble with the courts and reached a settlement with Warner Bros. to never sue them again for anything related to the franchise.
