All fans of The Conjuring Universe were excited when The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It was released in June of 2021. The latest installment follows paranormal investigators Lorraine and Ed Warren (Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson) diving into one of the most sensational cases of their careers. A young man is accused of murder, but he’s got a thrilling defense: he was under the spell of demonic possession. Everything starts to get a little eerie and satanic, but Lorraine and Ed are on the case.
