Warner Bros. has unveiled the first teaser trailer for The Conjuring: Last Rites, the final instalment in the iconic horror franchise, which will be released on September 5, 2025.
The chilling conclusion follows the fictionalised paranormal investigations of Ed and Lorraine Warren, portrayed by Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga, promising a haunting end to their storied journey.
The teaser delivers signature Conjuring scares, haunted dolls, shadowy spirits, and a blood-filled sink while striking a dark, atmospheric tone that hints at closure. Fans can expect the emotional depth Wilson and Farmiga have brought since the franchise’s 2013 debut, with the trailer suggesting this case may be the Warrens’ last. Though the series takes creative liberties, the real Ed Warren died at 79 and Lorraine at 92, long after the film’s depicted events.
