10 More Horror Movie Moments More Terrifying When You Know The Truth

10. Romanian Ghosts Were Watching The Monitors With The Director During The Corridor Scene - The Nun

Some could argue that there's never really a good time to experience your first-ever supernatural interaction. But in the middle of shooting a rather creepy flick about a demon nun? Poor Corin Hardy.

The director of that 2018 The Conjuring 2 spin-off known as The Nun eventually explained all of this when speaking to Yahoo Movies UK, noting how things got particularly freaky when shooting the spooky Corridor of Crosses scene.

Said sequence sees Taissa Farmiga's Sister Irene wandering down a corridor boasting many a crucifix in the catacombs found underneath a Romanian convent. Sure enough, she eventually bumps into the titular nun (a.k.a. the demon Valek) and things go sideways fast - and the situation Hardy actually found himself in whilst filming this moment only makes this nun encounter even more unsettling.

The director revealed that he found himself in a dark cell room next to the aforementioned corridor, seemingly joined by a number of Romanian crew members sitting down and watching. Thinking nothing of it, he returned to his monitors. But when he turned back around to said "crew members" after getting the take of Farmiga that he wanted, he was shocked to find that no one was there.

The room didn't have any other exits other than the door in front of him. So, Hardy just assumed he'd been chilling with the ghosts of some Romanian soldiers who were once walking around the fortress they were shooting in.

So, there you have it. As Irene was being haunted by a demon in this scene, Hardy was seemingly being haunted by some troops.
