Which Conjuring Movies To See Before Streaming The Nun 2
The Conjuring Universe currently has eight or nine Conjuring movies, depending on whether 2019's loosely related The Curse of La Llorona is included. These movies are divided into four subfranchises. However, there is no requirement to watch or rewatch all the movies in the universe to enjoy The Nun 2 on streaming. Only a select few are necessary to understand the new title completely.
To fully grasp the expanded universe and the connections within, it is essential to begin with the original The Conjuring. This sets the foundation for the entire expanded universe and ties into a significant moment in The Nun from 2018. Additionally, a screening of The Conjuring 2 is highly recommended as it introduces the demon Valak and showcases some captivating scares involving the nun character. In order to complete the trilogy and prepare for The Nun 2, it would be ideal to also watch The Nun.
For an even more comprehensive Halloween weekend marathon, consider including a viewing of Annabelle: Creation from 2017. While it does not contain crucial plot points for understanding The Nun 2, it serves as the immediate precursor to The Nun and features a brief appearance of Valak, hinting at the upcoming movie. However, as The Nun 2 takes place early on in the Conjuring Universe timeline, it is not necessary to watch any of the other franchise titles beforehand.
