That's got to be the biggest grossing horror franchise in history, right?

I would think so.

I can't imagine there's any others that come close to a billion.

I mean, I'm a huge lover of the Conjuring movie universe.

The Conjuring one will forever be my favorite.

I'll never forget watching that for the first time in theaters and just being completely...

out of my element, immersed into story.

Is there a bigger franchise?

Ah, that makes sense.

I can see that.

But after investigating together for over 50 years, Ed passed away in 2006 after years of failing health, and Lorraine passed away in 2019, naturally in her sleep.

But they've left behind a very vast and also controversial legacy, including allegations of sexual abuse against Ed.

Many people have also accused them of being outright frauds who preyed on vulnerable families.

But others believe their stories regardless.

I mean, I think regardless of whether or not you think they're frauds or not, I don't think many of us can deny that their stories are

some of the best in the paranormal sphere.

Yeah.

You know, at the very least, fraudsters are not.

Definitely entertainers are good storytellers.

Exactly.
