However, their daughter Judy is left behind with her babysitter Mary Ellen, by the warrens, and their overnight trip was made clearer.

There is general consensus that speaks that there is still hope in the Conjuring Franchise even though the film was not as horrifying as previous movies.

METACRITIC

To sum up some of the reviews, even though the film was on the lighter hearted side, it still was able to deliver some effective scares.

For example, The Conjuring Universe is claimed by CinemaBlend to be a “a lighter touch and also showcases the strong potential for the expanding continuity.” A hybrid serving.

On the other hand, others felt that it was too much of the same, Screen Daily asserting that “in the end it is such an effort, which is skilfully done, that it is too familiar with the other parts of it.”

Conclusion:

If you thought that the Warren family could only be associated with the doll in ‘The Conjuring Universe’, think again as ‘Annabelle Comes Home’ sheds light on the other characters in the family and enhances the story of the movie. However, the movie has a different ambience from the previous one and it feels different in a more novel and nostalgic way that every fan of the series would relate to. The horror artefacts room that this movie seeks to explore has antonyms for interrelated stories within this horror movie universe that can be extended more.
