Other mistake: Father Burke is buried in a coffin that is not air tight. Light from his torch can be seen outside the coffin. Yet no dust or dirt works its way into the coffin. (00:40:00)

Character mistake: When the father gets buried alive, he rings the bell. Then, when the (almost) nun hears the bell and comes running, you'll notice she calls out for the father when there's no way she can know it is him by just the sound of that bell. (00:40:24)

Visible crew/equipment: When water blurs the Father's word book, and the word deliveries appears, a woman appears to the right of him that appears to be a member of the camera crew, or possibly Irene, but she shouldn't be there either, because she is praying with imaginable nuns at that time. (01:06:22)

Continuity mistake: When Sister Irene's habit is ripped at the back, you can see a bra strap on her left shoulder which disappears when she is seen at the front and when the camera is closer to her back (when she has the pentagram carved into her).

Andy Benham

Character mistake: If the nuns in the Abbey weren't real and were created by Valek, why did Valek get one of the nuns to explain to Sister Irene the exact way to defeat her?

Continuity mistake: When Frenchie drops off food in the beginning, the cold cellar door opens on the right, but when he takes the priest and Sister Irene there it opens on the left.

Continuity mistake: Spoilers: At the end we are shown how this film connects into The Conjuring and shown a scene from that film. However the clip in the nun is different to The Conjuring. Ed Warren has an extra line for example.

Sister Oana: Whatever you do, don't stop praying.

More trivia for The Nun

Question: At the beginning, what was the old nun trying to do with the cross key in the dark room with the door that says "God ends here"?

Bunch Son

Answer: The nun was trying to find the relic. The deceased nuns had no actual idea where it was. That's the whole reason Irene was summoned by the Vatican because she had visions about "Mary pointing the way" also the "ghost nuns" more than likely have something to do with her clairvoyance as well.

Answer: Are you talking about before she opens the door? She's just making the sign of the cross, but using the same hand she's holding the key in.

I'm asking about what she was going to do in the dark room, what her plan was, what the cross key was for.

Bunch Son

It was to open the chamber that kept the vial of the blood of Christ so they could try to send Valak back to Hell.

Bishop73

The gateway to the relic was near the state of Mary, and it wasn't located inside the chamber seeing that Burke and Irene found the relic before crossing the passage leading to the chamber with the sign "God ends here." If there's someone who must have known where the relic was, it has to be the abbess. Then, why didn't she take it if she was going to?

Bunch Son

From everything I understood, the cross key opened the chamber that had the blood of Christ. The room with the sign "God ends here" was not the chamber I was speaking about. I was only addressing the question about what the key was for.
