The latest entry in the popular horror universe, The Conjuring: Last Rites, has now completed eight weeks in theaters, and its box office performance has far exceeded early expectations. Not only is it the highest-grossing horror film of 2025, but it has also become the second-highest-grossing horror movie of all time. With its current worldwide total standing at $489.8 million, the overall franchise has now crossed a massive $2.8 billion in global earnings.
The Conjuring: Last Rites has already surpassed the original and also the lowest-earning film in the Shrek franchise, which made $489 million worldwide back in 2001 (Box Office Mojo), and is now just behind the 2017 blockbuster War for the Planet of the Apes ($490.7 million). And now, the horror blockbuster is closing in on a popular 1990s disaster film backed by Steven Spielberg. We’re talking about the 1996 film Twister. Here’s how much The Conjuring: Last Rites needs to earn more to outgross it at the global box office.
The Conjuring: Last Rites vs. Twister – Box Office Comparison
According to Box Office Mojo data, here’s how the two films currently stack up at the global box office:
The Conjuring: Last Rites – Box Office Summary
- North America: $177.1 million
- International: $312.7 million
- Worldwide: $489.8 million
Twister – Box Office Summary
- North America: $241.8 million
- International: $252.7 million
- Worldwide: $494.5 million
With these figures, Last Rites still needs roughly $4.7 million more to surpass Twister’s worldwide total. Although it is nearing the end of its theatrical run, the film’s momentum suggests it could surpass this benchmark within the next few days. The final box office outcome should be clear soon.
