Annabelle, a spin-off about the creepy doll from The Conjuring, is slated for a release this October, just in time for Halloween!
Remember how scared you were during this summer’s box office horror hit The Conjuring? Recall also how 50 percent of that may have come from the opening shot being on that creepy Annabelle doll’s face? Well, Warner Brothers is surely hoping that you do!
It seems the current rule of horror is that if you've had a big hit movie, don't just be satisfied with a sequel, investigate the spin-off movie too. That's just what Warner Bros has done, with its now confirmed release date The Conjuring spin-off, Annabelle.
As revealed via press release, Annabelle will be opening October 3, 2014, just in time for the month of tricks and treats. Directed by John Leonetti, the cinematographer of The Conjuring, Annabelle stars Annabelle Wallis and Ward Horton. The script was written by Gary Gauberman.
It should also be noted that Annabelle is not The Conjuring 2. That movie is still in pre-production and could be released as early as 2015. It is currently unclear if director James Wan will be returning to the director’s chair.
