‘The Conjuring: Last Rites’ Trailer: A Final Chapter for Ed and Lorraine Warren

Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga return to The Conjuring franchise for one final demonic case in The Conjuring: Last Rites. The pair has played real-life paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren since 2013’s The Conjuring. They reprised their roles in the sequels The Conjuring 2 and The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It. Additionally, they have also appeared in cameos or supporting roles in other Conjuring Universe films, like Annabelle Comes Home and The Nun. It’s safe to say that after all this time, Ed and Lorraine have witnessed enough demonic activity to last several lifetimes. However, The Conjuring: Last Rites promises to be their final case, raising the question: after killer dolls and possession, what could possibly have been severe enough to make the Warrens retire?

The Conjuring: Last Rites is based on the Warrens’ investigation of the Smurl family, who reported numerous supernatural incidents in their home in West Pittston, Pennsylvania. The trailer for The Conjuring: Last Rites showcases some of these occurrences, including a nightmarish floating doll and a sink filling with blood. But surely it will take more than that to deter the Warrens.

The Conjuring: Last Rites also stars Mia Tomlinson as Ed and Lorraine’s daughter Judy, along with Ben Hardy as Judy’s boyfriend Tony. Michael Chaves, who directed The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It, returns to the director’s chair. James Wan, the creator of the franchise, serves as a producer alongside Peter Safran. The Conjuring: Last Rites hits theaters on Sept. 5.
