Part of what makes The Conjuring series so satisfying is that the stories are loosely based on actual cases investigated by two of the most famous demonologists in history.
The Conjuring 3 finds its inspiration in another famous criminal case, but it’s exploring a new genre.
Unlike the first two films directed by James Wan, the third won’t be a haunted house story.
Instead, it’s shaping up to be a courtroom drama following the trial of Arne Cheyanne Johnson, the first killer to claim demonic possession as a legal defense in the US.
Johnson claimed that demonic spirits had entered its body following an attempted exorcism of 11-year-old David Glatzel, the tormented younger brother of his girlfriend Debbie.
As it was these same demons, Johnson claimed, who fatally stabbed his landlord, Alan Bono, on February 16th, 1981.
Debbie, who witnessed the stabbing, backed her boyfriend’s story up in court. Debbie wasn’t the only one supporting his paranormal defense.
Debbie and David’s mother, Judy, was so convinced the devil was responsible, she hired Ed and Lorraine Warren to help.
