All Conjuring Universe Movies Ranked

The first Conjuring movie descended with one of the great marketing hooks: That the MPAA had slapped it was an R rating for simply being too scary. And, for once, the movie itself lived up to the marketing hype: With nary any blood or boobs, The Conjuring jammed audiences into a non-stop claustrophobic horror thrill ride, as Ed and Lorraine Warren investigated paranormal activity in the ’70s. A Certified Fresh rating (a first for director James Wan ) helped in securing a sequel, a $300 million worldwide box office haul all but guarantees it – and The Conjuring 2 was almost as scary as the original.

From there, the Conjuring Universe expanded into sequels and spin-offs that have whisked audiences to locales like London, Rome, and Mexico.
