Annabelle Comes Home Ends Before The Conjuring

For those who want a refresher : The Conjuring 1primarily took lieu in 1971 and followed the Warrens as they come in to the aid of the Perron kin - a family that had move into a farmhouse in Rhode Island , unaware that the property was cursed by an accuse witch named Bathsheba back in the 19th century . Bathsheba actually play the competitiveness directly to the Warrens at one tip in the pic by invading their home and using Annabelle to assault Judy . All the same , Annabelle come Homewraps things up well before any of that transpires . It ’s a bit of a change of tread fromAnnabelleandAnnabelle : Creation , which both conclude with a scene that directly flow into the event of the nextConjuringmovie in chronological order .

In a way , though , that fix sensation for the moving picture . Annabelle add up Homeis more along the lines of a blue eighties Amblin risky venture ( a chemical group of kids battle a terrifying threat ) thanConjuringfilms past , and has typically been described as a creepier take onNight at the Museumby Dauberman and serial architect James Wan . As such , the movie appropriately wrap up with a heartwarming minute where Mary Ellen , Daniela , and a whole lot of other small fry show up for Judy ’s natal day party , in turn show that Judy is n’t as alone as she matte up at the starting time of the motion picture . It ’s not the first prison term that aConjuringentry had concluded on a poignant note ( The invocation 2also terminate with Ed and Lorraine sharing a wild-eyed dance ) , but it ’s a welcome payoff to Judy , Mary Ellen , and Daniela ’s journey together all the same .

Annabelle Comes Home Doesn’t Have Any Major Nun Or Crooked Man Connections

As its assumption suggest , Annabelle Comes Homefeatures a whole sight of demon and monsters that’ve never shown up in aConjuringfilm before ( what with them   having been imprison in the Warrens ' collection ) . Nevertheless , there are two ghouls in particular who fail to make an appearance here . The first one is Valak , aka . the demonic nun - in - disguise who made their debut inThe Conjuring 2and has since starred in   a prequel of their own titledThe Nun . The other isThe Crooked Man , a puppet that gets its name from the " There Was a Crooked Man " nursery rime , and also became   a part of the enfranchisement inThe Conjuring 2 . In truth , there ’s a simple rationality why the pair did n’t join the party inAnnabelle Comes house : they just   had n’t met the Warrens yet .

WithThe Nun 2currently being write and aCrooked Manspinoff reportedly in ontogenesis , there ’s a fairish chance that either one or both of these graverobber will return toThe ConjuringUniverse at some point in the future . The former project seems to be move much quicker than the latter , though , so the odds are in favor of Valak getting their vallecula back before The Crooked Man does . At the same clip , Annabelle Comes Homehas now innovate a whole tidy sum of newConjuringvillains ( The Ferryman , The Hellhound , the haunted wedding garb ) that seem like prime campaigner to receive a picture show of their own   in the future tense . For now , however , The Conjuring 3is the only stay unveiling with an prescribed release escort , so fans are barren to speculate about which   solo ( demon ) movie will and/or should come next … though , likely best to not rule out an Annabelle / Valak team - up just yet , either .
