While the spinoff film Annabelle is now making a hit, all eyes are now set on the October 23 2015 release of The Conjuring 2: The Enfield Poltergeist, which might revolve around a 1977 case of a single mom in suburban London whose children were being haunted by the infamous doll.
While no official plot has been given about the upcoming film, here are some leaked details and speculations we've heard of:
According to Screenrant, the sequel almost never happened due to a lawsuit filed against Warner Bros. The suit alleged that Warners failed to improperly compensate Evergreen Media Studios, the company through which the contents of Ed and Lorraine Warren's case files were licensed for use in The Conjuring.

"It was reported that the film's budget is only $20 million.The Conjuring was one of the most successful films of 2013, garnering over $300 million worldwide. With that in mind, it's not hard to see why Warner is confident to create a sequel and make it as a movie franchise despite legal issues. At the end of the day, this is Hollywood, this conflict will likely end up in an arrangement that will make both parties richer.
Conjuring stars Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga are not in Annabelle, although they are set to return for The Conjuring 2. Leading Annabelle's cast are Alfre Woodard (True Blood), Annabelle Wallis (The Tudors), Ward Horton (The Wolf of Wall Street), and Brian Howe (Justified).
