WATCH ORDER
The Conjuring Universe Watch Order (2026)
The Conjuring Universe · Updated Sep 14, 2026
The largest horror franchise by box office, built from three connected strands: the Warrens' own case files (The Conjuring series), the Annabelle doll spinoffs, and The Nun. We recommend release order — the in-universe chronology (which jumps between the 1940s and 1970s depending on the film) is a genuinely contested fan debate, and release order is how the mythology was actually revealed to audiences.

The Conjuring → The Conjuring 2 → The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It is the core Warren trilogy and the strongest run in the franchise; the Annabelle and Nun spinoffs can be watched independently whenever you want more.
