This week on Friday Night Frightfest, we’re stepping into the chilling world of Ed and Lorraine Warren, the famous paranormal investigators! We’re kicking off our exploration of the “Conjuring Universe” by comparing the foundation of it all, The Conjuring (2013), with the origin story of its most sinister artifact, Annabelle (2014). Get ready for demonic entities, creepy dolls, and a whole lot of scares!

The Conjuring (2013)
Directed by James Wan, The Conjuring introduces us to Ed and Lorraine Warren as they are called upon to help a family terrorized by a dark presence in their secluded farmhouse. Based on a supposedly true story, this film masterfully builds suspense with its atmospheric tension, unsettling sound design, and truly frightening supernatural encounters. It established the tone and style that would define the entire cinematic universe.

Annabelle (2014)
Directed by John R. Leonetti, Annabelle serves as a prequel to The Conjuring, delving into the horrifying origins of the creepy doll that briefly haunted the Warrens’ artifact room. The film follows a young couple who bring the vintage doll into their home, unknowingly attracting a malevolent entity that latches onto it. This spin-off focuses on more direct demonic possession and the terrifying consequences of inviting evil into your life.

Join us as we explore the storytelling of these two pivotal films in the “Conjuring Universe.” We’ll discuss how The Conjuring laid the groundwork for the franchise’s success, the effectiveness of Annabelle‘s terrifying doll, and how these films established the recurring themes of faith and the battle against pure evil. Whether you’re a seasoned Warrenverse veteran or a curious newcomer, this episode is your guide to the beginning of the haunting!

Spoilers start around 5:54.
