The figure of a Valak ghost shaped like a nun was born from the imagination of the director of The Conjuring 2, James Wan (41), and one of the people who inspired the birth of the franchise, The Conjuring, Lorraine Warren, 91 years old.

At that time, Lorraine told James about a hooded figure that haunted his house. James was immediately inspired but did not want to create the figure in graphic form (CGI).

The director who also works as a producer and script writer wants this hooded figure to look real. "Because of the terrible sight that haunted him (Lorraine), attacked him, I wanted to create something that would attack his beliefs. Something that would strike the safety of her husband. That finally created an iconic picture of the holy figure that came to my mind," he explained.

The birth of the Valak figure who was now present in front of the audience was reinforced by Bonnie Aarons who was chosen to play Valak. With his unique face, Bonnie made all who saw Valak goose bumps.

This is not the first time, the actress who started her career since 1994 plays a terrible figure. Previously, he appeared in the film Mulholland Drive (2001), playing Bum with a jet black face and curly hair.

Although only for an instant, Bum's appearance was labeled as one of the most frightening moments in the film. Including by The Nun director, Corin Hardy (43).

"Bonnie has a distinctive face and character. After that, I just remembered she starred in Mulholland Drive and her appearance almost made me have a heart attack," he said.

No wonder, if Bonnie is proud of her acting as Bum. He even considered Bum as one of the highest achievements of his career, before playing Valak. "I really like a chameleon. With a little makeup, I will look very different," said the movie star The Princess Diaries and Drag Me To Hell.

Seeing Bonnie's appearance as a Valak, it is not impossible that many offers of acting for horror films will arrive at Bonnie. Moreover, the 170 cm posture actress is optimistic about welcoming more and more horror films in Hollywood. Uniquely, according to the actress born June 3, horror films are very good for health.

"Your adrenaline will be spurred on. So even if you watch horror movies alone (in theaters). Everyone in the cinema is like one another because you jump and get scared and then laugh at yourself for fear," said Bonnie Aarons.
