It’s been over a decade since The Conjuring hit theaters and terrified audiences enough to spark what’s now an ever-expanding cinematic universe, with Annabelle and The Nun spawning adjacent series. But the supernatural adventures of Ed and Lorraine Warren—based on the real-life paranormal investigators and played in the Conjuring movies by Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga—are coming to an end in The Conjuring: Last Rites.
We now have a second trailer for the fourth Conjuring movie, directed by Michael Chaves (The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It), and it teases more about the case that’ll be featured—and why it’s the one that stopped the Warrens from continuing their work. The demon they encounter is not just especially evil and angry… it knows them. They’ve met before, you see.
We also get a glimpse of what appears to be yet another haunted object for the Warrens’ collection—a spooky music box would fit right in—as well as a particularly chilling riff on that old horror standby, the multiple mirror illusion.
As you can see in the trailer, The Conjuring: Last Rites also stars Mia Tomlinson as an older version of Judy, the Warrens’ daughter, a character who’s appeared in previous installments. Steve Coulter is also back as Father Gordon.
Here’s the official synopsis: “The Conjuring: Last Rites delivers another thrilling chapter of the iconic Conjuring cinematic universe, based on real events. Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson reunite for one last case as renowned, real-life paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren in a powerful and spine-chilling addition to the global box office-breaking franchise. Farmiga and Wilson star alongside Mia Tomlinson and Ben Hardy, who portray Ed and Lorraine’s daughter Judy Warren and her boyfriend, Tony Spera, as well as Steve Coulter returning as Father Gordon, Rebecca Calder, Elliot Cowan, Kíla Lord Cassidy, Beau Gadsdon, John Brotherton, and Shannon Kook.”
The Conjuring: Last Rites hits theaters September 5.
