## Biography

### Background

Eleanor's origins are unclear, as her grave and portrait appear at Lakeview Mansion. Eleanor and Red are in a relationship sometime in 1957 while at Camp Lakeview. According to Red, Eleanor entered his life and became a vital part of it, being everything he had ever wanted. However, Red was bound to her due to a curse that came to be because of something that "he" did to Eleanor in the past. She was part of a cult that performed rituals for the Lake Gods. After having two kids with Red, Eleanor becomes pregnant once again. This time, however, she mysteriously dies before she can give birth. It is implied that Eleanor was killed and dumped in the lake by Red.

### *Lakeview Cabin*

Eleanor eventually returns from the dead, emerging from her watery grave, and trying to kill her husband and drag him into the lake with her. After Red succeeds in killing her either by luring her into an open bear trap before hacking at her body repeatedly with an axe or electrocuting her via throwing a bucket of water at her while she stands on the broken generator wire, Eleanor finally gives birth to her child, who bursts from her corpse.

#### *Lakeview Cabin III*

After both Red and Babyface have been killed by the camp counselors, Eleanor appears shortly afterwards on the east dock and starts singing. She looks like her original self until one of the counselors gets too close to her and Eleanor becomes an undead monster, attacking whoever is in front of her. Eleanor can be killed either by sneaking up behind her and then attacking, or by successfully wounding her while she is running around Camp Lakeview in her undead form. Both of these methods result in a bruised and bloody Eleanor crawling weakly towards the lake. The remaining counselors choose whether to let her return to the lake or finish her off.

#### *Lakeview Cabin IV*

Eleanor does not physically appear, but her portrait is shown at the mansion, as well as a grave marked "E".

#### *Lakeview Cabin V*

After dialing a number on the telephone, a version of Eleanor appears in the game *Lacus Lamia* holding an infant. She can throw the infant over to one of the teenagers in the Underside, who then takes it back to the land of the living and gives it to the Witch, who appears to be another version of Eleanor from *Lacus Lamia*. When the magic box from the Underside is sent to Camp Lakeview of the past, the counselors in *Lakeview Cabin III* can find it underneath one of the bunk beds and use it to trap Eleanor. The teenagers can retrieve the box from the Underside and give it to Eleanor's son. Reunited, Eleanor and her son leave together in a beam of light.

#### *Lakeview Cabin VI*

Eleanor appears as a ghostly apparition seen briefly around the space station. When one or more of the aliens are destroyed, including the one in the cabin, Eleanor shows up at the evacuation sector. She initially looks like her normal self but becomes more alien when she gets close to one of the janitors, and attacks. Eleanor will pursue the janitors around the space station, teleporting to wherever they are. If the space station is evacuated before the alien threat is destroyed, Eleanor and the offsprings follow the survivors to the refugee center, and mankind will be doomed. When a rocket is launched at her and explodes, she is reduced to a large puddle of blood, but only temporarily. Eleanor rises as the Blood God, activating the self-destruct countdown and chasing the janitors. After being hit three times by explosives, the Blood God is destroyed, also killing anyone nearby.

### *Lakeview Valley*

Eleanor appears in the Red Dimension after the blue-eyed Red talks about her to the Constant, and starts following the latter. Upon reaching the protagonist, Red notices her and is both surprised and ashamed that she is there to see what he has become. He promises that he can be better for her, and turns the "Supreme Uncle" part of his psyche into stone. After that, Eleanor says "Thank you" before revealing her hideous undead form. Red later tells the Witch that Eleanor is not truly his wife, although he is bound to her due to the Lake Gods.

### *Lakeview Cabin 2*

#### Episode 1

One of the movie reels shows footage of Eleanor (or, at least, the actress portraying her) looking sternly at the camera before happily laughing. This appears to have taken place during the filming of *Lakeview Cabin*.

#### Episode 2: Hotel Lakeview

At the *Lakeview Cabin* convention taking place in Hotel Lakeview, there are multiple Eleanor cosplayers.

#### Episode 3: The Studio

When the destroyed robot is combined with the brain, the girlfriend's head, and the Chicken Monster's egg, it summons Eleanor. Briefly looking around, she becomes angry and demonic before tearing Walt's head off.

#### Episode 4: Apocalypse

After Red is mortally wounded by the survivors, he crawls away, remembering a time when he and Eleanor were alive and young.

## Trivia

* Eleanor is primarily portrayed by the mother from the first episode of *Lakeview Cabin 2*.
	+ However, another actress portrays Eleanor in *Lakeview Cabin VI*.
* In the epilogue, which is possibly the "true story" that the movies are based on, Walt murders a woman who strongly resembles Eleanor after receiving disturbing visions from a lake.
* The idea of Eleanor being a pregnant woman came during the development of the original *Lakeview Cabin* game, as the developer Roope Tamminen was expecting a baby with his wife, and was experiencing fear about becoming a father.
