This weekend, The Conjuring universe is coming to an end with The Conjuring: Last Rites. Since the original movie was released in 2013, Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga have headlined this horror franchise based on the lives of paranormal experts Ed and Lorraine Warren. That film led to one of the most successful horror franchises of all time, so we'd be shocked if this is really the end for the Warrens on the big screen. Nevertheless, the Watch With Us team has taken the time to rank The Conjuring movies from worst to best, including the spinoffs. Horror Movies You Didn't Know Were Based on True Stories 9. 'Annabelle' (2014) The first spinoff from The Conjuring was Annabelle, a film that commits the cardinal sins of horror: It's neither scary nor interesting. Annabelle Wallis and Ward Horton star as Mia and John Form, a married couple who encounter Annabelle Higgins (Tree O'Toole), a murderous cult member who kills herself in their home rather than let herself be captured by the police. Somehow, Annabelle's blood causes an antique doll to take on her spirit, but she's far from satisfied. Annabelle wants Mia's soul, and she's willing to threaten her infant daughter, Leah, to get it. Annabelle is streaming on HBO Max. 8. 'The Nun' (2018) The Nun continued the trend of Conjuring spinoffs that simply aren't as good as the films that spawned them. It's better than Annabelle, and the acting is certainly a step up. It just lacks a consistent story or actual scares. Having said that, the visual of The Nun (Bonnie Aarons) is still very striking. 5 Must-Watch Summer Horror Movies, Ranked by Rotten Tomatoes Score In 1952, the Vatican sends Father Burke (Demián Bichir) and Sister Irene (Taissa Farmiga) to investigate a nun's death. That leads them to the demon masquerading as a nun. Although Burke and Irene have their faith, they may not have the power to exorcise this demonic creature. The Nun is streaming on HBO Max. 7. 'The Nun II' (2023) The Nun II was an improvement over its predecessor thanks to its better execution and scarier tone. Farmiga reprised her role as Sister Irene in a story that takes place years after the first film. When the demonic nun returns, Irene and a novice, Sister Debra (Storm Reid), undertake a new investigation into the creature and what it really wants. Irene is also given a vision of her friend from the first film, Maurice (Jonas Bloquet), which teases his unwilling connection to the nun. The Nun II is streaming on HBO Max. 5 Great Horror Movies That Are Actually Funny 6. 'The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It' (2021) Note to the wise: Never invite a demon into your body under any circumstances. Arne Cheyenne Johnson (Ruairi O'Connor) makes that mistake with the best of intentions in the opening scene of The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It. To save a young boy from demonic possession, Arne offered himself up instead. That entire sequence is the highlight of the movie. Once the demon is in the driver's seat of Arne's body, it uses him to murder innocent people. His only defense is that the devil made him do it, and the Warrens can attest to that. Especially since Ed (Wilson) is cursed and forced to attack his beloved wife, Lorraine (Farmiga) as they attempt to clear Arne's name. The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It is streaming on HBO Max. 5. 'The Conjuring: Last Rites' (2025) The Conjuring: Last Rites could have also been called The Conjuring: Greatest Hits, as Annabelle appears yet again, even though the actual threat this time comes from a cursed mirror and a home. This may be the last movie to feature Wilson and Farmiga as Ed and Lorraine Warren, but the film does reintroduce audiences to their daughter, Judy Warren (Mia Tomlinson), who is now a young woman after her previous appearance in the third Annabelle film.

This case is far bigger than Judy can handle on her own, and she'll need her parents' help to close the door on this threat. The Conjuring: Last Rites is now playing in theaters. 4. 'Annabelle Comes Home' (2019) Mckenna Grace played a younger version of Judy Warren in Annabelle Comes Home. Farmiga and Wilson do appear in the movie as Lorraine and Ed Warren, but their daughter takes the spotlight here. Things take a turn for the spooky when one of Judy's friends, Daniela Rios (Katie Sarife), accidentally frees Annabelle from her container. In turn, Annabelle frees other spirits from the Warrens' past, which puts Judy and her babysitter, Mary Ellen (Madison Iseman), in a difficult position. They have to stop Annabelle and her demonic friends by themselves, because the Warrens aren't there to do it for them. Annabelle Comes Home is streaming on HBO Max. 3 Must-Watch Horror Movies You Need to Stream in August 2025 3. 'Annabelle: Creation' (2017) Shockingly, Ann
