Set after the opening scenes of "The Conjuring," this chilling series installment finds demonologists Ed (Patrick Wilson) and Lorraine Warren (Vera Farmiga) locking deadly doll Annabelle up in their house for safe keeping in the early 1970s. But when Annabelle's case is opened, she unleashes a host of evil spirits, forcing the Warrens' young daughter Judy, (McKenna Grace), her babysitter Mary Ellen (Madison Iseman), and Mary Ellen's friend Daniela (Katie Sarife) to fight for their very survival.
