This June The Conjuring 3: The Devil Made Me Do It will premiere in both theaters and on HBO Max. A new featurette released today delves into the true story that inspired the latest installment of the franchise.

The third film of the franchise is a twisted tale of murder, the supernatural, and the unspeakable horror that rocked the nation. The case remains one of the Warren’s most terrifying investigations, the real-life case of Arne Johnson, which marked the first time in U.S. history that used demonic possession as a defense in a real murder trial. In the featurette, Arne’s wife Debbie Johnson regales the ordeal in detail.

Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson return to their roles as the famous paranormal investigators in the film directed by Michael Chaves (The Curse of La Llorona). The film also stars Ruairi O’Connor (Starz’s “The Spanish Princess”), Sarah Catherine Hook (Hulu’s “Monsterland”), and Julian Hilliard (“Penny Dreadful: City of Angels,” “The Haunting of Hill House”).
