It's not just mirrors and creepy hallways that you have to watch out for in The Conjuring 2.
In The Conjuring 2, the key to defeating Valak was Lorraine Warren learning its name, which she eventually does after ing that she scribbled its name in her Bible during a trance. However, if Lorraine had looked a little more closely at her surroundings, she would have spotted the word "VALAK" elsewhere. The name appears four times in the Warren household: spelled out on the window sill and wall of the kitchen; in a bead bracelet that the Warrens' daughter, Judy, is making; and spelled out again on a bookshelf (see below).

These name-drops were fun details for eagle-eyed audience , and The Nun has some more Valak Easter eggs that you may have spotted. The first appears quite early on in the film, when Taissa Farmiga's character, Sister Irene, is first introduced. In the classroom where Irene is teaching children about dinosaurs, "VALAK" can be seen on the board behind her, spelled vertically and upside-down. The second instance that fans have noticed is when Father Burke and Sister Irene mistakenly throw their bags into the back of a truck; "VALAK" is spelled out in the license plate.
There may be more Easter eggs that are harder to spot in the theater, but which can be discovered when The Nun arrives on home video. Speaking to Digital Spy about the Easter eggs, Hardy said that there are "a few," and that "there's a really subtle one that I'm quite proud of and don't want to spoil, but there's one in a relatively brief shot and it's a really contrasting scene." So be sure so keep your eyes peeled (if you dare) while watching The Nun.
Including The Conjuring's spinoffs.
