—Sarah to Charles Lee Ray[src]
**Sarah Pierce** (died January 2013) was a past victim of Charles Lee Ray, the wife of the late Daniel Pierce, mother of the late Barb and Nica Pierce, and the grandmother of the late Alice Pierce. After he fell in love with her, Sarah was stalked by Ray in the 80s, leading to her being kidnapped and stabbed in the pregnant stomach, resulting in her daughter being born paraplegic.

## Biography

### Early life

At some point in her life, Sarah would meet and fall in love with a man named Daniel Pierce and the pair would marry at a later point, settling down in Chicago, Illinois. During the mid-to-late 1980s, Sarah would fall pregnant with their first child, whom they would name Barbara. In February 1988, Sarah would become pregnant again with the couple's second child.

### Meeting the Lakeshore Strangler

#### A mutual friend

"*Charles! Get over here, I want to introduce you to someone!*"
—Charles Lee Ray being introduced to the Pierces.[src]

While attending a cookout in mid-1988, Sarah, Daniel and Barb were introduced to a man named Charles Lee Ray through a mutual friend. He came over and politely shook everyone's hands, even noticing how Barb had his mother's eyes. Following the meeting, however, Ray noticeably became obsessed with Sarah, stalking her and her family and falling more and more in love with her, unbeknownst to his own girlfriend, Tiffany Valentine. One night, Daniel never made it home and Sarah would soon discover that he had been murdered, drowned by an unknown assailant. At Daniel's funeral, between her moments of mourning, Sarah glanced toward Ray who only smiled at her, allowing her to quickly realise that he was the culprit behind Daniel's murder. Now feeling anxious, Sarah held Barb closer to her than ever.

#### Kidnapped

"*Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! You told them about us?!"
"Ugh, there is no us!*"
—Charles Lee Ray and Sarah.[src]

At some point after Daniel's funeral, Ray made his obsession toward Sarah extremely clear and ended up kidnapping her and holding her hostage in an old warehouse, occasionally brining her sunflowers whenever he could to express his true love for her. On the night of November 9, 1988, he brought her another set and ungagged her so she could thank him and describe how beautiful they were. When he attempted to leave and pick up Barb from day care, Sarah quickly stopped him and attempted to distract him, explaining how they should have more time alone together. However, when he realised that she was trying to keep him from Barb, he grew angry with her and threatened to hurt her just before a police car arrived outside the building. Now confident she would be safe, Sarah exclaimed that they were not a couple and spat in his face. Now enraged, Ray displayed a hunting knife and held it to her stomach, stabbing into her and, then unknown, paralysed the baby. He would then flee from the police and be gunned down moments later in Playland Toys.

### Life After Trauma

#### A broken family

"*Must be some kinda joke."
"I don't get it."
"Neither do I."
"He's cute."
"If you say so.*"
—Sarah and Nica upon meeting Chucky.[src]
It is assumed that the police discovered a bloodied and traumatised Sarah in the warehouse and quickly brought her to the hospital, where they were able to save the baby's life, but at the cost of her not being able to walk. Around two weeks later, on November 25, 1988, the baby was born and Sarah named her Nica. Looking to leave behind the trauma she had experienced, Sarah packed up her broken family and moved from Chicago to Highgate, Rhode Island, purchasing an almost secluded estate and living in hiding for the remainder of her life. Eventually, Barb grew up and moved out to marry a man named Ian, later giving birth to a daughter named Alice. This left Sarah and Nica alone together in the house, with Sarah never wanting Nica to leave her at the risk of her being hurt, causing their relationship to be somewhat strained.

In January 2013, Sarah was simply painting in her spare time when she heard the doorbell, asking Nica to answer it for her. After noticing the delivery guy hitting on her, Sarah listened before Nica finished the conversation. However, upon asking if she should ask him out, Sarah shut down the notion, explaining that he was only being polite. Despite being irritated by her mother, Nica sat down with her as she unboxed the mysterious package they had received, discovering a mysterious doll within. As the doll began to talk and announced it's name as "Chucky", Sarah was taken aback by a feeling of familiarity. Nica quickly left as soon as she acknowledged that her niece will love him. Sarah called after her about hanging out together later that night, however, she was ignored. Feeling paranoid about the doll, she took it and threw it into the garbage, planning on forgetting ever seeing it.

#### Death

"*Took me 25 years, but believe me, it was worth the wait.*"
—Chucky about murdering Sarah.[src]

Later that night, Sarah was presumably ambushed by the doll, now revealed to be possessed by Charles Lee Ray who had returned to get revenge. Her screams rang throughout the old house, gaining the attention of Nica who went to investigate. He then stabbed Sarah in the abdomen with a large pair of scissors, causing her to fall from the landing of the house and into the main hall. He then approached her and placed her hand on the handle of the scissors, making it appear that she had committed suicide herself. Sarah finally passed away in the hall of the house as Chucky stood triumphally over her, finally getting his revenge after 25 years.

## Personality

Before her abduction by Charles Lee Ray, Sarah appeared to be an extremely warm and happy individual, that sported a caring demeanour, even while meeting a stranger, as seen when she first met Ray. However, after the death of her husband and subsequent kidnapping, Sarah grew into a depressed and cynical woman, shutting down any potential happiness for others, as seen when she convinced Nica that a man who commented on her looks was only being polite. This is also in part to her selfishness, induced by her depression, Sarah was extremely afraid of being alone and felt like she had to keep Nica trapped in their home so they could stay together, masking it as being a protective mother.
