Get ready for Annabelle to possess you on the Artifact Room Tour when she and her spirited friends arrive in Phoenix!

One of my favorite events I’ve attended in the past year was the “I Like Scary Movies” Experience in Hollywood this past April, which allowed visitors to come by and experience an immersive experience based on several classic Warner Brothers/New Line Cinema horror films, like The Shining, Beetlejuice, The Lost Boys, A Nightmare on Elm Street, It, and more.

New Line and WB must be seeing the value in these sorts of interactives, because they’re bringing one out just in time for the release of the latest installment of the Conjuring universe, Annabelle Comes Home, on June 26th. The Annabelle Comes Home Artiffact Tour is setting up shop in Phoenix on June 22nd and June 23rd from 3pm to 11pm both days, allowing visitors to the installation at the Legends Entertainment District (South 3rd Street, Phoenix, AZ 85004 – next to the Phoenix Convention Center and Chase Field) to experience a virtual museum of Conjuring goodies, including flickering TV’s that reveal the future, an accordion playing money, and a photo booth allowing you to take a photo with Annabelle herself! Check out the full details below!

BURBANK, CA – June 5, 2019 – In anticipation of the upcoming release of “Annabelle Comes Home,” New Line Cinema and Warner Bros.

Super scares on the tour center around several flickering vintage TVs similar to the future revealing TV in the movie; an accordion-playing monkey, which has been seen in other “Conjuring Universe” films; a creaking rocking chair; a self-playing piano with a playlist of its own; and much more. And don’t miss the photo booth with Annabelle herself, enhanced with special features to make sure visitors can feel her presence.

ABOUT “ANNABELLE COMES HOME”

“Annabelle Comes Home” is the third installment of New Line Cinema’s hugely successful “Annabelle” films starring the infamous sinister doll from the “Conjuring” universe. Gary Dauberman, the screenwriter of the “Annabelle” films, “IT” and the upcoming “IT Chapter Two,” and “The Nun,” makes his directorial debut on the film, which is produced by Peter Safran (“Aquaman”), who has produced all the films in the “Conjuring” franchise, and “Conjuring” universe creator James Wan (“Aquaman”), who has produced the last five films under his Atomic Monster banner.

Determined to keep Annabelle from wreaking more havoc, demonologists Ed and Lorraine Warren bring the possessed doll to the locked artifacts room in their home, placing her “safely” behind sacred glass and enlisting a priest’s holy blessing. But an unholy night of horror awaits as Annabelle awakens the evil spirits in the room, who all set their sights on a new target—the Warrens’ ten-year old daughter, Judy, and her friends.

The film stars Mckenna Grace (TV’s “The Haunting of Hill House,” “Gifted,” “Captain Marvel”) as Judy; Madison Iseman (“Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle,” “Goosebumps 2: Haunted Halloween”) as her babysitter, Mary Ellen; and Katie Sarife (TV’s “Youth and Consequences” and “Supernatural”) as troubled friend Daniela; with Patrick Wilson (“Aquaman,” “The Conjuring” and “Insidious” films) and Vera Farmiga (“The Conjuring” films, upcoming “Godzilla: King of the Monsters,” TV’s “Bates Motel”) reprising their roles as Ed and Lorraine Warren.

Dauberman directed the film from a screenplay he wrote, from a story by Dauberman & Wan. Richard Brener, Dave Neustadter, Victoria Palmeri, Atomic Monster’s Michael Clear, Michelle Morrissey, and Atomic Monster’s Judson Scott served as executive producers.

Dauberman’s behind-the-scenes team included director of photography Michael Burgess (“The Curse of La Llorona”), production designer Jennifer Spence (“Annabelle: Creation,” “The Nun”), editor Kirk Morri (“Aquaman”) and costume designer Leah Butler (“Annabelle: Creation”). The music is by Joseph Bishara (“The Conjuring” films).

New Line Cinema presents, an Atomic Monster/Peter Safran Production, “Annabelle Comes Home.” The film will be distributed in theatres and IMAX on Wednesday, June 26, by Warner Bros. Pictures.

“Annabelle Comes Home” is rated R for horror violence and terror.
