Second ‘Annabelle: Creation’ Trailer Delivers Fun Frights
On August 11th, we learn the real story behind Annabelle.
Reviews coming out of the L.A. Film Festival almost universally indicate that David F. Sandberg’s Annabelle: Creation has taken a page out of Ouija: Origin of Evil’s playbook in that it’s a superior sequel to a movie that most fans felt wasn’t very good. In fact, our own Kalyn Corrigan wrote in hers that it’s “a very welcome addition to The Conjuring universe.”
Mere hours after the new poster was unveiled, a brand new trailer for Annabelle: Creation has arrived. Check it out below and be sure to let us know what you think!
In Annabelle: Creation, “Several years after the tragic death of their little girl, a dollmaker and his wife welcome a nun and several girls from a shuttered orphanage into their home, soon becoming the target of the dollmaker’s possessed creation, Annabelle.”

Sandberg directed from a screenplay by Gary Dauberman, who also wrote Annabelle.
Director David Robert Mitchell (It Follows) is back this summer with dinosaurs-in-suburbia mystery box movie The End of Oak Street, and new official posters have arrived.
Check out the brand new The End of Oak Street posters below and look for the sci-fi/horror movie in theaters August 14, 2026 from Warner Bros. and producer J.J. Abrams.
Anne Hathaway and Ewan McGregor come face-to-face with a monstrous threat in The End of Oak Street, which looks like M. Night Shyamalan with retro-style Amblin vibes.
As Mitchell explained to Entertainment Weekly, inspirations for the film include Jurassic Park, The Twilight Zone, Poltergeist, The Valley of Gwangi, and M. Night Shyamalan’s Signs.
The End of Oak Street is set in the early 1980s…
In the film, “After a mysterious cosmic event rips Oak Street from suburbia and transports their neighborhood to someplace unknown, the Platt family soon discovers that their very survival depends on them sticking together as they navigate their now unrecognizable surroundings.”
Maisy Stella and Christian Convery also star.
The film is written and directed by David Robert Mitchell and produced by J.J. Abrams, Hannah Minghella, Jon Cohen, David Robert Mitchell, Matt Jackson and Tommy Harper. The executive producers are Chris Bender, Jake Weiner, Joanne Lee and Leeann Stonebreaker.
David Robert Mitchell’s team behind the camera for WB’s The End of Oak Street includes director of photography Michael Gioulakis, production designer Maya Shimoguchi, editor John Axelrad, composer Michael Giacchino and costume designer Erin Benach.
