+Valac is a major antagonist in ''The Conjuring'' series of horror films. ''The Conjuring 2'', ''The Nun'', and ''The Nun II'' have Valak as the main antagonist, taking on the form of a demonic nun and The Crooked Man from the rhyme "There Was a Crooked Man." However, it has not been confirmed if Valak is the Crooked Man. ''The Nun'' revealed that the demon took the form of a nun to hide amongst the sisters in a convent. In ''The Nun'' and ''The Nun II'', its main weakness is the Blood of [[Jesus Christ|Christ]]. Its ability to block the psychic Lorraine's visions makes it the most dangerous entity in The Conjuring Universe.
