The Conjuring: Last Rites Ending Reveals if Ed & Lorraine Warren Die

The Conjuring: Last Rites finally concluded Ed and Lorraine Warren’s story, which has gone on for nine films in the franchise, bringing things to a close on a bittersweet note. So what happened to the paranormal investigators at the end of The Conkuring: Last Rites? Do both of them survive?

Do Ed and Lorraine Warren die in The Conjuring: Last Rites?

No, Ed and Lorraine Warren do not die at the end of The Conjuring: Last Rites in the traditional sense. Instead, the couple receives their happy ending by the time the end credits roll. Of course, they die much later after getting older, but they retire and spend time happily before that.

The entire film is heavily focused on the Smurl family. The case of the mysterious mirror that hosts a spirit also seems to be deeply connected to the Warrens. At the end of the film, Judy and Lorraine combine and manage to force the spirit away. This leaves the Smurl family at peace.

This also becomes the final case for Ed and Lorraine Warren, who retire after this. Lorraine has a vision that reveals the happy retirement they have ahead. The film confirms that the duo actually does get a happy ending. They retire from active investigation and write books and teach for the following years.

Ultimately, Ed suffers a stroke, and Lorraine stays by his side till he passes away a few years later. Following this, Lorraine also passes away.

Despite the story of the Warrens wrapping up, the franchise can still continue. The many spin-offs before this confirmed that the franchise can go on without the Warrens. Perhaps the future films could build on one of the cases from the previous ones. It could also shift the focus to Judy, who could continue the legacy.

Either way, Last Rites gave a fitting farewell to Ed and Lorraine Warren while keeping the doors open for more Conjuring movies and spinoffs.

The Conjuring: Last Rites is now playing in theatres.
