Last Summer, James Wan gave us a beautiful sequel to the Conjuring, captivating audiences while scaring the literal craps out of others. It’s true, I was actually with someone who legit almost pooed themselves and ran to the bathroom. Good times. Along with another solid performance from Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson as the Warrens, Wan along with Chad and Carey Hayes, brought some brand new terrifying monsters into the universe of horror films that are pure nightmare fuel for weeks upon a viewing- The Crooked Man, and Valek the Nun, who we’ve heard for some time is getting his very own theatrical spin-off. Well, now we finally have some news on this highly anticipated box of night terrors that is coming to the masses.

Calm your nun tits Valek! Your movie is coming!

Per an exclusive with Deadline, Corin Hardy (The Hallow) will be at the helm for The Nun with a script from Annabelle writer Gary Dauberman, and of course James Wan. Hardy who was for a long time linked to direct The Crow reboot, has since left the project that seems stuck in development hell. However, their loss is now Wan’s gain as this freshly hot horror director seems to be a great fit to help expand The Conjuring universe brilliantly.

Stay tuned on more on The Nun as it develops. In the meantime check out this article on the actor’s from The Conjuring 2 and their claims that the set was haunted!
