Its that time of the year when moviegoers are treated with terrifying jump-scare moments from the much successful Conjuring Universe. Don’t believe me? its time you check out the trailer for Annabelle Comes Home, the third film from this Universe’s spinoff series which surprisingly seems to have potential compared to the original film.
As Annabelle Comes Home is nearing its release, Warner Bros. is ramping up its marketing for the Horror film and have released new hi-res stills featuring the demonic doll and offering glimpses of the nightmare it causes to Ed and Lorraine’s daughter and their friends.
A few other images also show Lorraine holding on the doll which seems to be a scene exploring the prequel part of Annabelle’s storyline. You can check it out below.
The first Annabelle film is certainly one of the worst titles released under the Conjuring Universe. Although the original film failed at impressing the audience–the second installment or more precisely, its prequel titled ‘Annabelle: Creation‘ directed by David F. Sandberg was quite good and that seems to have saved this spin-off series from a crash and burn.
Annabelle Comes Home is directed by Gary Dauberman, the screenwriter for all Annabelle films, IT and The Nun. Dauberman is making his directorial debut with the third installment. Though the Annabelle franchise and The Nun received fair to poor responses from moviegoers- the IT remake turned out to be very successful.
In case you haven’t read it yet, Here is the synopsis Annabelle Comes Home:
Determined to keep Annabelle from wreaking more havoc, demonologists Ed and Lorraine Warren bring the possessed doll to the locked artifacts room in their home, placing her “safely” behind sacred glass and enlisting a priest’s holy blessing. But an unholy night of horror awaits as Annabelle awakens the evil spirits in the room, who all set their sights on a new target—the Warrens’ ten-year-old daughter, Judy, and her friends.
Annabelle Comes Home will haunt theaters near you on June 21st.
