As the title suggests, the movie takes place before the events of the first Annabelle movie and covers how the doll became bewitched. In this film appears new characters, such as Sister Charlotte, a nun looking out for a group of orphan girls. They were looking for a place to stay and one day, a dollmaker and his wife offer to take care of them (they lost their own daughter in a car accident years prior). And that is why, into the house, strange things start to happen and Janice (an orphan girl) is the only one who suffers it. The importance of Annabelle: Creation is the relationship between the girls. They are always together through thick and thin. The narrative is easily understandable, with unexpected events all along the movie that keeps you on your toes and make the story increasingly more powerful. In conclusion, I reckon that this second part is more effective than the first Annabelle movie, this is a smart prequel made by a very competent director who knows how to avoid the clichés and build tension mostly through the use of silence, relying on a creepy mystery that slowly grows to become something terrifying.
