Whether it's possession or a more leeching presence, it's sure to be explained in The Nun. Annabelle is an American horror film written by Gary Dauberman and directed by John R.

It's not made clear in the film what exactly this is, but the presumption would that this is Valak the hands clearly aren't the same black claws of the spirit possessing the Ram.ĭue to her heroic actions in the final act, it doesn't seem like Sister Charlotte is a threat at all, but the fact she has some related history with the Nun, quickly disregards her presence in the image, and that it appears shortly after she leaves Janice all point to some sort of relationship. Later, there's another potential sighting when a wheelchair-bound Janice is pushed into the barn to be possessed by the Ram she's moved by something wearing nun's clothes, but with horrible, black-marked skin.

Mullins points it out but Charlotte immediately says she has no memory of her and moves quickly on.

Unlike the doll, which existed more as an entrance into the world of the Warrens, this evil spirit was essential to the plot of The Conjuring 2 Lorraine Warren first saw her in a mid-seance vision when investigating the Amityville horror, leading to it repeatedly haunting her with visions of husband Ed's death, before it was eventually revealed as the cause of the Enfield Haunting at the center of the movie's plot. If Annabelle was the MVP of The Conjuring, her natural successor in the sequel is totally The Nun.
