What is the connection between Sister Irene and The Conjuring's Lorraine Warren? I have the answer to that and the other mysteries of this character!

CONFESS YOUR SINS. Irene Palmer is the main protagonist of the Nun spin-off series, a part of the wider Conjuring franchise (The Conjurverse). When she was originally cast to Taissa Farmiga, real life sister of Vera Farmiga (who plays Lorraine Warren), speculation immediately began to swirl about who this character really is. Was this a younger version of Lorraine, a sister, or possibly another relative altogether?

The Nun and The Nun 2 contain little clues that we can use to piece together the history of Sister Irene and start to answer some of the questions of her backstory.

In this video I'll be going over the entire timeline of Irene, from her troubled childhood, to her adventure at the Abbey of St. Carta in Biertan, Romania, to her years as a nun and finally, her last known confrontation with Valak in Tarascon, France.

I'll also be analyzing her relationships to other characters like Frenchie, Father Burke, Cardinal Conroy and Father Ridley -- as well as the less friendly relations with the ancient evil demon: Valak, the defiler.

Finally, I'll be discussing where she fits into the horror genre and why I was disappointed with the further development of her character in The Nun 2 and how it could have been better by taking cues from the Insidious franchise. This is the ultimate guide to Sister Irene Palmer!
