The premise

Lorraine and Ed Warren travel to north London to help a single mother raising four children alone in a house plagued by malicious spirits.

Horror Vault's take

Based on one of the most infamous alleged hauntings in British history, The Conjuring 2 sends demonologists Ed and Lorraine Warren across the Atlantic to a cramped Enfield home where a struggling single mother and her children are terrorized by a deeply malevolent presence. The film builds its scares with patient, suffocating dread before unleashing something far darker than a restless ghost. Director James Wan once again weaponizes domestic spaces and quiet moments, making the ordinary feel deeply threatening. The Warren partnership — and the personal toll their work takes on them — sits at the emotional heart of the horror.
