Man Dies Watching ‘The Conjuring 2’…and Then Vanishes!
Okay, so I’m not sure if this is a poorly decided marketing gimmick or something along those lines but this story is so batshit crazy that I can’t help but share it with all of you.
In Tiruvannamalai, India, a 65-year-old man went to the movies with his friend to see James Wan’s The Conjuring 2. However, during the climax of the movie, he began complaining of chest pains and suddenly collapsed, causing people to call for medical assistance. He was taken to the Old Government Hospital, where he was declared dead, according to Times of India.
I’m not trying to take away from the sadness of the situation as a family lost a loved one but I do have to say that this is where the story gets weird. The doctors decided to send the body to a different hospital on the other side of town for the post mortem. However, the driver and the body never showed up and have seemingly vanished into thin air.
Authorities are investigating the area to see if they can find any information but so far it seems that nothing has turned up.
Filming is underway on The Invisible Man director Leigh Whannell’s Wolf Man for Universal and Blumhouse, which will be howling its way into theaters on January 17, 2025.
Deadline reports that Matilda Firth (Disenchanted) is the latest actor to sign on, joining Christopher Abbott (Poor Things), Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel), and Sam Jaeger.
The project will mark Whannell’s second monster movie and fourth directing collaboration with Blumhouse Productions (The Invisible Man, Upgrade, Insidious: Chapter 3).
Wolf Man stars Christopher Abbott as a man whose family is being terrorized by a lethal predator.
Writers include Whannell & Corbett Tuck as well as Lauren Schuker Blum & Rebecca Angelo.
Jason Blum is producing the film. Ryan Gosling, Ken Kao, Bea Sequeira, Mel Turner and Whannell are executive producers. Wolf Man is a Blumhouse and Motel Movies production.
In the wake of the failed Dark Universe, Leigh Whannell’s The Invisible Man has been the only real success story for the Universal Monsters brand, which has been struggling with recent box office flops including the comedic Renfield and period horror movie The Last Voyage of the Demeter. Giving him the keys to the castle once more seems like a wise idea, to say the least.
