The Conjuring 2: The Enfield Case, the second installment focusing on the investigations of Ed and Lorraine Warren, lands on Netflix on September 13, 2026. Directed by James Wan and released in French theaters on June 29, 2016, this horror film reunites Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga for a case inspired by the famed Enfield poltergeist.
In 1977, Peggy Hodgson shares a home with her four children in Enfield, a north London neighborhood. Unexplained phenomena begin to surface in the house and seem to focus on Janet, her 11-year-old daughter. The case gradually draws the attention of the press and paranormal investigators.
Ed and Lorraine Warren travel to England to try to uncover what’s really happening inside the Hodgson house. Their investigation grows more complex as the very nature of the manifestations becomes murky: are the events authentic, manufactured, or triggered by a supernatural presence? For the Warrens, the case also becomes personal when Lorraine confronts an entity that directly targets her husband.
Conjuring 2 continues the partnership of the two demonologists first introduced in The Conjuring: The Warren Dossiers. While the original film sent them to the Perron family in Rhode Island, this sequel shifts the action to the United Kingdom and centers on another infamous paranormal case.
The Enfield poltergeist, which inspired the film, refers to a series of phenomena reported in the Hodgson family home from 1977 onward. The case drew extensive media coverage in the United Kingdom and remains tied to ongoing debates about the true origin of the events. Conjuring 2 uses this case as the starting point for a fantastical narrative that brings the Warrens into the story and expands its own supernatural threats.
James Wan returns to the universe he kicked off with the first Conjuring, after also directing Saw and Insidious. He also contributes to the screenplay alongside Chad Hayes, Carey W. Hayes and David Leslie Johnson. Opposite Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga, Madison Wolfe plays Janet Hodgson, while Frances O'Connor portrays her mother Peggy.
The film also plays a pivotal role in expanding the franchise. The entity that takes the form of a nun, introduced in this story, would later become the central character of The Nun in 2018, and then of The Nun II: The Curse of Saint Lucia in 2023.
In the franchise's release order, The Conjuring 2: The Enfield Case is the third film after The Conjuring: The Warren Files and Annabelle. It precedes Annabelle: Creation, released in 2017.
This Netflix drop lets you revisit a big chunk of the franchise in its release order. Eight films from the Conjuring universe join Netflix on September 13, 2026: Conjuring: The Warren Dossiers, Annabelle, Conjuring 2: The Enfield Case, Annabelle: Creation, The Nun, Annabelle Comes Home, The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It et The Nun II: The Curse of Saint Lucia.
