Despite lackluster reviews for Annabelle, the Conjuring franchise continued with The Conjuring 2: The Enfield Haunting. Notably, this one does not start with a recap of Annabelle’s adventures in nursing, but with a different Warren case, Amityville. This doesn’t do them any favors in the credibility department since Amityville has been scrutinized and debunked more

When The Conjuring came out, there was one question on everyone’s mind. What is up with that creepy Annabelle doll from the cold open? At least that’s what I assume justified this movie. It’s a low point in the Conjuring Universe and as only the 2nd movie in the group, it’s kind of amazing that

Final Destination: Bloodlines is a decent outing for the franchise. The storyline is interesting and a very different plan for our favorite menace, death. The cast is a surprisingly loveable group in a franchise known for characters that no one is sad to see lit aflame and dragged down the road by a tow truck.

I got a terrifying email from my local library system. They will NO LONGER be offering Ebooks with Libby. I went through the five stages of grief over the next few hours. Denial – It must be a mistake. Or a scammer! They probably put in some link for innocent library patrons to click. Anger
