The Conjuring universe is getting lost in its own mythology.
The Big Picture The last few years have been remarkably fruitful for the development of new franchises within the horror genre. While it’s fun to see storied series like Halloween and Paranormal Activity return for new installments, new additions like Happy Death Day, A Quiet Place, Sinister, and Ouija have proven to be equally popular with horror fans as some of the classics. However, one of the new horror sagas created in recent years has been more successful than any other, The Conjuring.
The Conjuring Spinoffs Trivialized Valak The stark contrast in Valak’s depiction in The Nun versus the Conjuring films unfortunately only trivialized the character even further. It didn’t help that Valak also appeared in 2016’s Annabelle: Creation and 2019’s Annabelle Comes Home. While in The Conjuring 2, Valak only appeared in the shadows as a ghostly presence that would occasionally move an object or affect a character’s behavior, The Nun depicted the demon as a typical slasher villain.
Annabelle Was Scary Until She Was Explained Unfortunately, the issues with The Nun and its overexploitation of a demonic creature is something that the Conjuring franchise had already encountered. In the wake of the first film’s success, the 2014 prequel Annabelle latched onto the possessed doll that had been briefly mentioned in the original film.
