WATCH: The Conjuring 3 trailer pits the Warrens against the actual devil

It centres around the true story of the first time in U.S. history that a murder suspect would claim demonic possession as a defence.

Believe it or not, there have already been SEVEN movies in The Conjuring Universe, including the two Conjuring movies, the three Annabelle movies, The Nun, and The Curse of La Llorona.

There are reportedly even more on the way, including a Nun sequel, and a spin-off focusing on The Conjuring 2 creature The Crooked Man, but for right now, all eyes on the main threequel arriving, and Warner Bros. has just shared the brand new trailer for The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It.

Once again, the story is based on real-life demonologists Lorraine and Ed Warren (Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson), focussing on one of the most sensational cases from their files. Beginning with the fight for the soul of a young boy, it then takes them beyond anything they’d ever seen before, marking the first time in U.S. history that a murder suspect would claim demonic possession as a defence.

Irish actor Ruairi O’Connor will portray Arne Cheyenne Johnson, the murder suspect who the Warrens try to defend, while James Wan (director of the first two Conjuring movies) sets back to the executive producer chair this around, and Michael Chaves (The Curse of La Llorona) directs this outing.

The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It is currently scheduled for release in the UK on Friday, 28 May, with an Irish release set for whenever cinemas can safely reopen.

The YouTube trailer is age restricted, but can be watched right here once you’ve signed in.
