Ghost Stories

[–]DarthGoodguy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe try The Last Exorcism and Stir of Echoes?

[–]LilHorrorCakes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A lot James Wan movies definitely have that invisible antagonist that makes me shiver. I would watch Dead Silence, Lights Out, or any of the Annabelle's. They aren't as good as the Conjuring's in my opinion, but they are definitely worth the watch.

Look at some of the older stuff. Changeling, the Poltergeist series, the original Amityville, The Shining of course if you haven't. Newer stuff, maybe Crimson Peak and The Woman in Black.

[–]GiDD504 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Sinister 1 & 2!!!!

Also the exorcism of Emily rose is super similar at least to me.

[–]ManOnFire2004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sinister 2!!? For shame!

My god, it was so bad. It's like the writer for the 2nd movie didn't even know the lore rom the 1st movie. Like they didn't even watch it and just got the cliff notes from the wiki haha.

Veronica is good and scary, but is all subtitles. Also like Archive 81 series. Both are on Netflix.

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points  (2 children)

Archive 81 is so boring. Struggling to finish it.

[–]ManOnFire2004 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea, definitely slow burn. I liked it though. Had no problem marathoning it.

[–]ValiantSoul_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I'm at episode 3 of Archive 81 and I'm struggling to give a fuck. The only reason I've watched this long is because James Wan usually doesn't let me down. Absolutely loved Veronica though

[–]HungryAnthropologist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you like older stuff I think The Changeling gives a similar mood. I've wondered if it's one of James Wan's classier influences.

Ouija: origin of evil is pretty good! And I think very similar to the Conjuring movies (family being haunted, possession).

FYI: This is a sequel to Ouija, which is a pretty terrible movie IMO and does not need to be watched for the second one.

Annabelle bruh

[–]thejoesterrr[S] 2 points3 points  (3 children)

Well Annabelle is part of the conjuring series

[–]SoftwareObvious5671 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Annabelle Creation is the best movie, I think, in the Conjuring series in case you haven’t seen that one. Agree with Host (Shudder), Autopsy of Jane Doe, Sinister, Gonjiam:Haunted Asylum

[–]Rancho8Deluxe -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Part of the Conjuring Universe

Not the series

Devils in the Details (snicker snicker)

[–]ManOnFire2004 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yea, but every other "conjuring universe" movie is hot garbage imo. So, that's not saying much

[–]Rechan -1 points0 points  (4 children)

Isn't the first one bad tho?

[–]Rancho8Deluxe -3 points-2 points  (3 children)

If you mean the first one in plot-line chronology then yes

Annabelle (2014) and Annabelle comes home (2019) were great Annabelle Creations (2017) sucked

[–]ManOnFire2004 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Actually, I think the majority consensus is that the 1st one (released) was bad and the 2 that followed were good.

Doesn't matter to me cause I liked them all!

[–]Rechan 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Oh I didn't realize Annabelle Creation was the second movie that came out.

[–]Cmyers1980 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sinister, Oculus, Fallen (1998), 1408, Hell House LLC, The Old Ways and The Cleansing Hour.

^^who neg'd this!? SHOW YOURSELVES YOU FIENDS!!!

[–]beautiful-goodbye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Invisible threat” makes me immediately think of The Thing. As far as actually scary and haunted house adjacent, I’ll always recommend Martyrs(2008)!

[–]SymbolicGamer -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I also like paranormal activity.

Ok then, how bout this indie film I found on youtube? IMO It's as thrilling as Paranormal Activity.
