What is The Conjuring 2 about?
In 1977, two ghost hunters named Ed (played by Patrick Wilson) and Lorraine Warren (played by Vera Farmiga) decided to get back to work after taking a break. They head to Enfield, a part of north London, where they meet Peggy Hodgson (played by Frances O'Connor).
Peggy is a stressed-out single mom with four kids, and she's convinced that something really bad is in her house.

Who is The Nun/Valak?
Valak, also known as The Nun or The Crooked Man in different forms, is the antagonist in The Conjuring Universe. Valak causes trouble in several movies: it's the ultimate villain in the 2013 film The Conjuring, the main bad guy in The Conjuring 2 and The Nun, and the mastermind of the creepy events in Annabelle: Creation.
Valak made its first appearance in The Conjuring 2 during a seance to figure out if a demon was behind Ronald DeFeo Jr.'s tragic act of killing his family on November 13, 1974. While the paranormal investigator Lorraine Warren tried to understand the gruesome murders, Valak tricked her into going to the basement. From that point on, Valak kept haunting Lorraine.
Later, Ed, Lorraine's partner, had a dream about painting Valak as a nun, and this is when Valak decided to take on the form of a Nun to torment Lorraine, using the painting to its advantage. Valak wanted something from Lorraine, and when she asked what it was, Valak showed her a horrifying vision of Ed in danger, which deeply affected her.
