You’d think it would be enough for filmmaker James Wan to have two hugely successful horror franchises under his belt — with Saw and Insidious (both co-created with writing partner Leigh Whannell). But then he also went and created The Conjuring, which since its debut in 2013 has produced nine films in total, grossing over $2 billion at the box office.
Starting as a 1970s ghost series, based on the real life investigations of married paranormal snoops Lorraine and Ed Warren, The Conjuring Universe has sprawled into a franchise that not only keeps track of the Warrens’ demon-busting adventures, but also delves further into the haunted backstories of these cases with prequel installments set decades before the Warrens show up.
So are you looking to watch these Conjuring films as they were released – or do you want to absorb all the spookiness via chronological binge, kicking things off in 1950s Romania with The Nun? Whatever the case, you’ll find both Conjuring Movies in Order lists below while we wait for The Conjuring 4.
