A horror franchise that makes a strong debut is often milked for all its worth. Paranormal Activity, for example, terrified audiences in 2009, leading to six increasingly ineffective sequels until Paranormal Activity: Next of Kin appeared to end the franchise in 2021.
It’s rare to see a series cut short when there’s even just a little more blood to squeeze from it. So while a wildly successful horror franchise supposedly ended with one last movie earlier this year, it looks like its cinematic universe is actually just beginning.
