Abigail (Life Lessons with Luis)

**Abigail** (Stephanie Schulz) is the main villainess from *Evil Foster Mom Hides Kids in the Basement!!!*, a short film released by **Life Lessons with Luis** (release date May 8, 2021).

## Introduction

Abigail was introduced as a woman who served as a date for main protagonist Brian, who met Abigail online. The film showed Brian arriving at Abigail's home (after seeing a young boy and returning his football to him), and after Brian was invited in, he asked Abigail about herself, with Abigail revealing that she was once married. After stating that she didn't really talk about her past marriage, Abigail informed Brian that her husband had passed on just months prior, adding that her husband had been on medication for psoriasis and that he accidentally mixed up his medications.

Abigail stated that her husband died of a heart attack as a result, and that he fell attempting to get to his cell phone to call 911. However, as a flashback scene revealed, Abigail turned heel by tampering with her husband's medications, as she was shown swapping the pills in the scene. The villainess later snatched her husband's cell phone as he attempted to call 911, and laughed wickedly as she watched him die as a result of her sabotage. Abigail stated that her husband was in a better place, but added that the couple was divorced and their marriage was toxic, claiming that she needed to cut him out of her life.

Brian revealed that he was also divorced and had a daughter, with Abigail reacting strangely to Brian's revelation that he had a daughter; responding to Brian's question about whether or not she liked kids by stating that she gets bothered by them. The deranged Abigail later asked about Brian's ex-wife, wondering if she was pretty and adding that she was younger than Abigail, and it was at that moment that Brian heard the sound of a pair of kids screaming before mentioning the young boy he saw earlier.

## Reveal

Abigail was alarmed by Brian's statement and left, and as Brian went to the refrigerator, he opened the freezer and saw a human head inside--belonging to Abigail's late husband, revealing Abigail as a crazed murderess. Abigail returned to the house and searched for Brian, who left the house and went to a nearby garage and saw three children tied up and held captive--with one of them being the boy he saw earlier. Brian called the police as he untied the boy, who ran off, after which Brian freed the other two children--a second boy and a girl. As Brian was taking the pair out of the garage, he was encountered by Abigail, who held the escaped boy hostage, revealing her true heel persona in the process.

The maniacal villainess accused Brian of taking her children, only for Brian to state that they weren't hers, believing that Abigail had kidnapped them, while reminding Abigail that he was a cop. As Abigail herself revealed, she legally adopted all three children, but had been abusing them afterwards by locking them in the garage, and during her reveal, the evil Abigail stated that as a legal foster mother, she could do whatever she wanted with her children.

The villainous madwoman also stated that she thought that she and Brian had a connection, only for Brian to inform Abigail that she had no right to imprison her children and added that the police were on their way to take her to prison. Abigail (who was referred to as Stephanie in the epilogue--an assumed alias) ended up arrested and charged with child abuse, and was sentenced to 14 years in prison.
