The Conjuring Universe to bring "The Crooked Man" back

The Conjuring franchise is planning to expand with New Line Cinema by working on a "Conjuring 2" spin-off based around the character of "The Crooked Man".
Filmmaker James Wan has hired writer Mike Van Waes to write the screenplay on the character that first appeared in "The Conjuring 2", according to The Hollywood Reporter.
The tall, slender character is the third Conjuring monster to get its own movie, following in the footsteps of the possessed doll Annabelle from the first movie and the demonic nun from the second.
The next chapter will be directed by Wan and produced by Peter Safran.
