"I won't talk about the legalities of it, but I will talk about it from a creative standpoint. I can say this: everyone is obviously very excited, not just from a business standpoint, but with the story we've cooked up for the second one," he said. "The script is really strong, and it's actually very exciting. I think the fans are very excited about it -- clearly, with the success of Annabelle. That means people are very hungry and are in love with the world we've created in The Conjuring. So there's lots of great stories to be told there. I think that's what people want to see. I do know that everyone wants that."
