The latest installment in The Conjuring Universe is on its way to movie theaters, and fans of the horror franchise can’t wait to find out what kind of terrifying surprises the demon Valak has in store for them next. The Nun II has been anticipated for a long time because it is a part of the sinister world built by horror hero James Wan.

The audience in the first film in the Nun franchise followed Sister Irene and Father Burke as they examined the death of a nun living at the monastery of Saint Cartha in Romania. Within the confines of the Abbey, things were not as they appeared, and Sister Irene found herself in a battle with the demon who had evaded excommunication by taking possession of an unsuspecting delivery man named Maurice. The events of the second film take place four years after the first, so spectators will have to wait and witness what kind of horrors the demon is capable of while inside its new body.

At the end of the first Nun movie, it was revealed that Maurice, better known as “Frenchie,” had become possessed by the demon Valak. The film was based on the novel The Nun’s Story.
