* AuthorsSavingThrow: ''Film/{{Annabelle}}'' was ridiculed for how people kept saying the horribly creepy doll was beautiful. Janice and Linda, on the other hand, are immediately scared by it even in pristine condition.

* AndYouThoughtItWouldFail: People were very skeptical about this film going in, being a prequel to another prequel which didn't have the best reputation itself, plus not being sold yet on the very concept of turning ''Film/TheConjuring'' into its own cinematic universe. But it ended up being quite well-received as a solid-to-great horror film that easily could have stood on its own, with the connections to the previous films increasing confidence that more entries in the franchise could turn out just as good.

* FanPreferredCutContent: Many of deleted scenes are viewed as canon by many fans. They turn AlphaBitch Carol into a JerkWithAHeartOfGold, give Sister Charlotte a better backstory and her own haunting subplot, and explain the apparent non-reaction to the death of [[spoiler:Mr. Mullins]].

* SignatureScene: The scene where Linda is menaced by the spirit and attempts to scare it off with her toy gun has been called "one of the scariest moments in movie history" by some fans. A large part of what makes the scene so distinctive is how there are so many sounds of the demon approaching in the dark, getting closer and closer to Janice while still remaining offscreen.


Added DiffLines:

* WheelchairWoobie: Janice doesn't ''start'' the movie in a wheelchair, merely walking with a crutch due to polio. Then her good leg is broken, leaving her wheelchair-bound, despondent about her chances of being adopted, and defenseless against terrifying demon attacks.

Re-watching the deleted scenes, I realize that some of them are alternate versions of scenes which were kept, and others cause continuity errors, so saying almost all of them are viewed as canon is inaccurate.
