Annabelle Comes Home
Annabelle derive Homeis the third film in theAnnabelleseries and the seventh installment in the Conjuring Universe , but it ’s aiming to be different than all of those previous installment . As the Annabelle serial ' third installing , Annabelle come Homecontinues the story of the ill-famed Annabelle doll , which began with John R. Leonetti ’s 2014 film . But it ’s also unambiguously placed in the franchise ’s timeline , thus making it a sort of midquel to Annabelle andThe Conjuringfilms .
Set in the other 1970s , Annabelle add up Homeis spell and head by Gary Dauberman ( IT , Annabelle ) and star McKenna Grace as Judy Warren , Madison Iseman as Mary Ellen , and Katie Sarife as Daniel , among others . Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga reprize their roles as Ed and Lorraine Warren , respectively , inAnnabelle come Home . However , their roles are a trivial more than a cameo . interview will still manage to see Ed and Lorraine on some of the tapes they ’ve record , which will play in at least one sequence in the new film .

While much ofAnnabelle descend Home ’s taradiddle is being keep back under wrap , what has been corroborate is that it takes place after the opening sequence ofThe Conjuring(when the nurse brings the Annabelle doll home ) , but before the event of the rest of the film . So , it ’s a sequel to the firstAnnabellemovie ( seeing asAnnabelle : Creationwas a prequel to that film ) , while also still being a prequel toThe conjury . Therefore , it ’s the perfect opportunity to bridge both corner of the Conjuring Universe together .
Scene Descriptions
We had the chance to see two scene being filmed while on the set ofAnnabelle Comes Home . The first vista was quite brief and was only between Judy and Mary Ellen . At first , Mary Ellen is walk through the hallway of the mansion , call out Judy ’s name , as if she was searching for her . Mary Ellen see Judy in a bedroom ( not her own and perhaps Ed and Lorraine ’s room ) , praying on her knees . Mary Ellen immediately stop her , saying , " Judy ? Judy , hey . " Judy say something back to Mary Ellen , but the sound was soft and a second ill-defined .
In the second aspect , Daniela is watching one of Ed and Lorraine ’s tapes when Mary Ellen walk in and turns it off . Daniela then verbalize about one of the Warrens ' cases , about a espousal gown that vote down the bride bust it , with the rake disappear afterward so that it can be worn again by another Saint Brigid . Mary Ellen is n’t hold any of it and does n’t want the taping dally at all . So , to protect Judy , Mary Ellen wants to do something more lively , fun , and appropriate for them . ( Funny thing is , the projector malfunctioned in one take , which guide to Katie Sarife joke about Annabelle taking over . )

Katie Sarife’s Daniela
Katie Sarife report her character , Daniela , as the " really fun best supporter that find oneself the sense of humour in everything , " and ground on one of the view that were being filmed at the time of the localise visit - in which Daniela is go sifting through the Warrens ' archives - it sure enough seems that she ’s have in mind to be the character that push Judy and Mary Ellen throughout the story , perhaps not always in a good way . It ’s a standard operating procedure for the " fun unspoilt friend " to be killed off rather early in horror movies .
Sarife considersAnnabelle Comes Homethe perfect chance to conquer her fearfulness of dolls . Growing up , Sarife tell she was " petrified " of doll , and starring in this movie is a " niggling bit of payback . " Somewhat jokingly , Sarife refer to her part inAnnabelle come Homeas a soma of therapy , because " we all have to cover with our past , in unlike ways . " But on a more serious note , Sarife feel that she can use a lot of the " terror " she experience as a kid to well dish her character in this picture .
McKenna Grace’s Judy Warren
In line her character , McKenna Grace believes that all audiences need to sleep together about Judy before seeingAnnabelle Comes Homeis that she ’s Ed and Lorraine ’s daughter . Saying anything beyond that , such as revealing why her eccentric feels the need to eff more about diseased stories ( include watching the Warrens ' tapes ) , would be spoiling the cinema . Of naturally , much more about Judy Warren will be uncovered throughout the fib , as she ’s the central character . Plus , her interaction with Daniela and the furthering of her friendship with Mary Ellen will also flourish .
goodwill admits that joiningAnnabelle Comes Homeis one of the greatest thing to happen to her in her life . She ’s star in major productions such asCaptain Marvel(as a young Carol Danvers),Once Upon a Time(as a young Emma),Haunting of Hill House(as a young Theo ) , andChilling Adventures of Sabrina(as a new Sabrina Spellman ) , butAnnabelle Comes Hometops all that because it ’s , one , a repugnance movie and , two , set in the Conjuring Universe . Grace is an unabashedConjuringsuperfan . ( But her favorite horror movie isThe polishing . )
Madison Iseman’s Mary Ellen
Madison Iseman describes her character , Mary Ellen , as someone who ’s " put together in every direction and sense , " and she ’s someone who feel like nothing will hurt her at this point in her living . So , when everything goes wrong , Mary Ellen has the toughest time deal with it . ( This plays into why Mary Ellen examine to prevent Judy from watch Ed and Lorraine ’s tapes , even going as far as to turn off the projector when Daniela is learn them in a special scene that we saw while on set . )
Just like her Centennial State - star , McKenna Grace , Iseman is also a large fan of the repugnance genre . However , the same can not be say about her character . Mary Ellen avoids thinking about the Warrens ' workplace because she ’s afraid of that world , which plays into her backstory . While Mary Ellen ’s backstory was n’t discuss on set , it ’s sure something that interview will discover in watchingAnnabelle come Home . Even though joining the conjure Universe was immensely exciting for Iseman , she let in to feeling a morsel out of her element . She always thought of doing a horror slasher film , because she did n’t want to " mess up with the heller . "

The Warrens' House
For product designer Jennifer Spence , one of the practiced things about doingAnnabelle come Home , in addition to having it set in the " groovy " seventies , is have the chance to make her mark on the Warrens ' plate by completely redesign it from the reason - up for the first time . Spence , Dauberman , and James Wan initially struggle with trying to recreate the Warrens ' family from the previous films since there was n’t any hard-and-fast persistence . So rather than continue to string along together all the different version to imprint a hodgepodge kind of the Warrens ' house , Spence redesigned everything .
However , two room from previous movies are return without much redesigning : the home office where Ed Warren does most of his studying ( and where the Nun moves along the bulwark ) and the artifact elbow room , where the Warrens keep all of their apparently anathematise object . Another thing that Spence hold forAnnabelle Comes Homeis the planetary house ’s wallpaper . Despite that , Spence found a room to make the mansion stand out by using deep and perhaps more vivacious colors throughout the set .
As previously mentioned , the immense bulk ofAnnabelle amount Hometakes place inside the Warrens ' menage , thus do it more of a contained motion picture compared to the other installments . And to prevent the movie from being claustrophobic , while also trying to make the house finger like a maze , Spence designed the Warrens ' house to be fairly of a maze . It ’s three stories , and there are plenty of area that are new - that have n’t been see before - but may not be explore inAnnabelle Comes Home . Spence design the Warrens ' home to be able-bodied to be revisit in futureAnnabelleorConjuringmovies .
give thatAnnabelle Comes Homeexists within The Conjuring Universe , quite a few Easter eggs are hidden throughout the movie that lead at theAnnabellemovies and the other enfranchisement installation . One finical Easter orchis , an Annabelle silhouette , can be spot in a picture inside the house ( which is really a painting of the star sign ) . That picture was made specifically for the movie and done in just four hr , and it was commissioned at the request of Patrick Wilson .
Spence has brought so many " creepy " artifacts to life on - screen over the class that she would welcome the chance to create one herself . And if given that prospect , the one thing she would need to have a nervous backstory is a telegraph . It could materialize one Clarence Shepard Day Jr. , too , if Spence chooses to move into directing as she hopes to do , which , considering her expertise in production design for horror film , could make for a terrifying story .
