THE CONJURING 2 reunites the filmmaking team behind the original film - director James Wan, producers Peter Safran and Rob Cowan... Wan is coming off of the huge global success of FURIOUS 7 earlier this year and is writing and producing as well as directing the sequel...
Plot Outline: The film will center around the events that took place in 1977 known as 'Enfield Poltergeist'... In August 1977, single parent Peggy Hodgson called police to her rented home in Enfield after two of her four children claimed that furniture was moving and knocking sounds were heard on walls. The children included Margaret, age 13, Janet, age 11, Johnny, age 10 and Billy, age 7. A female police constable saw a chair slide on the floor but couldn't determine if it moved by itself or was pushed by someone.
Later claims included allegedly demonic voices, loud noises, thrown rocks and toys, overturned chairs and levitation of children. Reports of further incidents in the house attracted considerable press attention and the story was covered in British newspapers such as the Daily Mail and Daily Mirror, until reports came to an end in 1979. On Halloween 2011, BBC News featured comments from a radio interview with photographer Graham Morris, who claimed that a considerable portion of the events were genuine.
At the time paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren did a intensive investigation of the incident - Ed Warren even went as far to claimed that Janet was once "sound asleep, levitating in midair" and concluded that the children were the subject of demonic possession..
