What is The Conjuring about?
The narrative of "The Conjuring" revolves around the Perron family, consisting of Roger and Carolyn Perron and their five daughters: Andrea, Nancy, Christine, Cindy, and April, who move into a farmhouse in Harrisville, Rhode Island, in 1971. Upon arrival, they notice their dog, Sadie, refusing to enter the house while the entrance to a cellar remains boarded up.
Soon, they experience several paranormal incidents, including every clock in the house stopping at 3:07 AM, the sudden death of Sadie, and Carolyn waking up with unexplained bruises. Additionally, both Carolyn and Christine come face-to-face with a malevolent spirit.
Faced with these occurrences, Carolyn reaches out to Ed and Lorraine Warren, demonologists renowned for their investigation into the infamous possessed doll, Annabelle. After meeting with Carolyn, the Warrens conduct an initial investigation, and Lorraine, a clairvoyant, realizes that the Perron family is being tormented by dark forces, and leaving the house will not be enough to free them from the spirit's grasp.
