Conjuring 

The Annabelle doll is taken by the Lorraine and Ed Warrens, a group of investigators that deal with supernatural events after three nurse girls report having experienced paranormal events since they were gifted the dolls. The Warrens will soon be contacted by Carolyn Perron and family who believe they are haunted by an evil force. As the Warrens intervene to help, they soon realise the hauntings are in fact warnings from deceased women of the house. They intend on preventing Bathsheba, a witch that killed herself and cursed the house after she was caught sacrificing her new-born to the devil. Bathsheba possesses Carolyn and tries to fulfil the prophecy by trying to kill her daughter, but the Warrens successfully exorcise Bathsheba, ending her reign of evil forever. 

Conjuring 2

The Warrens are now investigating the fabled story of Amityville where Lorraine Warrens experiences a vision of a demonic nun.

They are soon contacted by the Hodgson family who claims that their daughter Janet is experiencing a series of hauntings. They pay a visit and successfully interact with the spirit who names itself as Billy Wilkins, the former house owner. Thinking that the spirit wants to scare them out of the house, the Hodgson moves next door but the hauntings wouldn’t end. The Warrens come across a video of Janet purposefully creating a scene and believe that it was all a hoax. As they prepare to return back, Lorraine experiences another vision where Billy reveals he is just a pawn and that the devil wants Janet before being startled by the demonic nun, who reveals itself as Valak. The demon possesses Janet and prepares to kill itself by throwing off the window, but Ed manages to stop her. Lorraine, realising that the name of the demon is the way to banish her, dares to face the demonic nun and would banish her to hell, freeing the family.

“Your name grants me dominion over you demon, and I do know your name! You are Valak, the defiler, the profane, the marquis of snakes!” – Lorraine during the confrontation. 

The Nun
