While Ed and Lorraine Warren may be taking a final bow in the upcoming sequel, The Conjuring: Last Rites, the chilling universe they helped establish is far from over.
Variety reports that HBO Max is still forging ahead with the television series first announced in 2023. This shift to the small screen presents exciting possibilities for the haunting franchise. The Conjuring films, which have brought in over $2 billion at box offices, while inspired by the Warrens’ cases, have always embraced creative liberties. A television series can take this further, delving into entirely new corners of the franchise’s mythology. The source material isn’t limited to the Warrens’ case files, opening the door for a wider range of stories.
The episodic nature of television allows for more flexibility. The show could follow the anthology format of “American Horror Story,” offering self-contained scares each season. Alternatively, it could take inspiration from limited series like “The Penguin” to explore a single, overarching narrative.
Max has a proven track record of success with established franchises. Fans can expect “The Conjuring” series to continue delivering high-quality horror experiences, just in a new format.
Keep an eye out for the latest developments on the Conjuring television series. In the meantime, revisit the chilling tales of the Warrens by streaming The Conjuring films on MAX, Direct TV, and Netflix.
