Ed and Lorraine Warren are back battling ghosts in The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It, the third Conjuring film and eighth entry in The Conjuring Universe.

Andy Nelson discusses the movie with Pete Wright, Tommy Metz III, and special guest Justin Harlan from Cinapse and The Farsighted podcast. Does this latest chapter fit well into the franchise? Why did James Wan hand over directing duties to Michael Chaves? And how do we feel about the story leaving the haunted house setting for a possessed person?

Other topics include the blend of CG and practical effects, whether the villain delivers the scares, and how this stacks up to the previous Conjuring films. Check out The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It then tune in to join the spooky conversation!
