The next chapter in The Nun horror franchise hit theaters last Friday, September 29th with The Nun II. Part of The Conjuring universe, The Nun II takes place in 1956 in France and follows Sister Irene (played by Taissa Farmiga) as she once again faces the demon nun. Farmiga isn’t the only cast member from the first film to return; Jonas Bloquet reprises his role of Maurice “Frenchie” Theriault, and Bonnie Aarons as the wickedly creepy demon nun.
