welcome to watch
mojo and today we're counting down our
picks for the top 10 things the
conjuring movies got
factually right and wrong we waited 30
years to tell our story
[Applause]
because 30 years ago the world was not
prepared for this
where do you come from
[Applause]
for this list we'll be looking at how
true to history the conjuring universe
is what's your favorite conjuring movie
let us know in the comments below
number 10 ed and lorraine warren
right to begin let's discuss ed
and lorraine warren played by patrick
wilson and vera farmiga
hi i'm roger lorraine hey nice to meet
you roger edward
the warrens are the heart of the core
conjuring movies
these aren't characters made up for the
movie they're perhaps the most
famous paranormal investigators in
history
the warrens founded the new england
society for psychic research in the
early 50s and were widely known for
their publicized investigations
including the world famous amityville
haunting we'd hoped to discover if the
killings had been motivated purely by
anger
or if as ronnie defeo testified in court
he had been under the influence of
something
demonic however as is often the case
with the paranormal
the warrens their methods and their
findings have been
met with a large degree of skepticism
from the public
and the scientific community uh well
we've been called demonologists it's one
name for us
ghost hunters paranormal researchers
kooks
wackos number nine the perrin family
right the first conjuring movie sees the
warrens investigating an old farmhouse
that was recently purchased by the
perrin family
what is it
[Applause]
again these characters were not made up
for the movie
the parent family really existed they
had five daughters and they were haunted
in a remote rhode island farmhouse
supposedly when the movie was released
in 2013
the oldest parent girl andrea played by
shanley caswell
was 54 years old and she told usa today
that the movie had many elements of
truth to it
warner brothers studios and new line
cinema treated very difficult subject
matter
with the utmost respect and decency and
maturity and
intelligence i could not be more pleased
lorraine warren also worked on the movie
as a consultant
to ensure accuracy ghosts or no
the parent family is a hundred percent
real and they could even be seen in a
special trailer for the conjuring
we waited 30 years to tell our story
because 30 years ago the world was not
prepared for this
number eight the happy ending wrong
despite its numerous scares and
oppressive tone
the conjuring has quite a happy ending
ed completes the exorcism
bathsheba is banished from the home
carolyn is saved and the warrens return
home content in their incredible work
you did good now you did
only it didn't end like that in real
life according to the skeptical inquirer
roger perrin was none too happy with the
involvement of the warrens and their
intrusion
into his home when it came time for
carolyn's supposed
exorcism roger ended up punching ed in
the face
and kicking the warrens out of his house
according to andrea perrin
her father quote considered the warren's
little sideshow
a charade and called them quote a pair
of two-bit charlatans
yeah i don't know what her problem is
number seven
poltergeist activity right sort of
well i got news for you bill see i don't
care what you believe in
the conjuring 2 focuses on the historic
enfield poltergeist
case more on that in a bit as in the
first conjuring
many of its scares were supposedly taken
from real life events including the
classic poltergeist activity of
furniture moving on its own now get back
to bed
and it's not just the family and the
warrens that claim to have seen
something
neighbors journalists and even
responding police officers claim to have
witnessed various poltergeist
activity
there were claims of moving furniture
objects being tossed and thrown
and even instances of human levitation
of course these events
may have been faked by the family for
publicity but they
were seen and they were most definitely
reported
where do you come from
i come from the grave number six
the crooked man wrong one of the
sequel's villains
is the crooked man a tall and thin man
with pointy teeth
and gray green skin despite what some
may believe
the crooked man was not a cgi creation
rather he was played by a man named
javier beautette who suffers from a
condition called marfan syndrome
this disorder results in a tall thin
stature
with elongated limbs and hyper flexible
joints
the villain is taken from an old english
nursery rhyme called
there was a crooked man but there was
certainly no crooked man
in the real enfield poltergeist case
that said the character proved popular
enough to warrant a spin-off
number five the enfield haunting right
the enfield poltergeist is one of the
most popular instances
of alleged paranormal activity taking
place in london in the late 70s
the story is bolstered by seemingly
reputable claims and major coverage in
the british press
the movie gets a ton of facts correct
from the inclusion of the warrens down
to the physical design of the characters
including janet hodgson's ser style and
red sweater
[Music]
the end credits are a great source of
comparison as they include
real vocal recordings and side-by-side
images juxtaposing the movie
with reality when it comes from your
area janet do you feel anything in your
throat
yeah you just don't feel anything with
that said
many skeptics and even some paranormal
investigators have questioned the
veracity of the events
believing them to be nothing more than
an elaborate hoax concocted by the
clever minds
of bored teenagers damn it you kids
our principal characters hear all
children and children can be very
ingenious pranksters
number four valic wrong
who's that
just like the crooked man valic is a
hollywood fabrication
at least in terms of the enfield
haunting when it comes to that
historical event there are two possible
realities
either it was real and the hodgsons were
tormented by a ghost
or they made it all up for a laugh it
certainly was
not a demon who took on the forms of a
nun and the crooked man
your name gives me dominion over you
demon
and i do know your
the name the profane
the marquee of snakes that said valic
is a real demon mentioned in the lesser
key of solomon a spell book compiled in
the mid
17th century however the valax scene in
the conjuring
doesn't resemble the valic from the
grimoire
number three the warrens museum right
keep everything locked in here feel free
to look around
just don't touch anything at the end of
each conjuring movie the warrens place
something in their personal museum
in the first movie it's a music box in
the second
it's the crooked man zoetrope also
cedan's second movie is the popular
annabelle doll
the subject of her own popular spin-off
it was a gift from my mom for my
birthday
i don't know where she got it but
we are beyond terrified this small
museum
is 100 real named the warren's occult
museum
it was built in the warrens connecticut
home the room is filled with objects
pertaining to their numerous
investigations
including the parent family music box
seen at the end of the conjuring a
supposedly
self-playing organ various satanic tools
and yes
the real annabelle doll this is the
worst thing
in here that job unfortunately the
museum has since closed owing to zoning
violations and
unwanted visitors number two the
exorcism
wrong as stated earlier the real
exorcism of carolyn perrin
was very different from what's portrayed
in the movie
in contrast to her husband roger carolyn
was
very much open to belief in the
paranormal she reportedly suffered
disturbing visions and dreams
and came up with the idea that local
figure bathsheba sherman was behind it
all
during his seance at the parent house
carolyn's body shook
and she began mumbling skeptics contend
that this was less about demonic
possession
and more about someone very suggestible
meeting expectations
the chair did fall back but it didn't
swing upside down
onto the ceiling
nor did she try to stab her own daughter

number one annabelle right then one day
it was in a completely different room
it's moving around by itself this
horrifying dow
made quite an impression in the first
conjuring movie which of course
led to her own spin-off trilogy
[Music]
and while the raggedy ann dowell was
given a fictional makeover for the
movies the legend of annabelle remains
very real the story begins in 1970 when
a student nurse was told that a raggedy
ann doll contained the spirit of a
deceased little girl
what do you need
your soul it reportedly behaved in a
malicious
fashion which eventually led the nurse
to the warrens
they believed that the doll was
demonically possessed and imprisoned it
within their occult museum
where it remains to this day
nice doll that's what you think
