The Conjuring Spin-Off in the Works?

With The Conjuring having been a major box office win for Warner Bros. and New Line, a sequel is already in development. However, a new report suggests that a spin-off is also being planned and will focus on a certain evil presence from the first movie.

According to Schmoes Know, a spin-off, titled Annabelle, will focus on the infamous doll we saw in the first film. It's rumored that filming could begin early next year with The Conjuring's Director of Photography, John R. Leonetti, taking on directing duties for this movie.

Of course, this is just a rumor at this point, so we'll let you know as soon as anything related to the spin-off is official. Here's our previous story regarding the upcoming sequel that is officially in the works:
