Bridget Bixler

* Human
* Deadite

**Bridget Bixler** is a supporting protagonist-turned-antagonist in Evil Dead Rise.

## Biography

Bridget was the teenage daughter of Ellie and Jay, the middle sibling of Danny and Kassie, and the niece of Beth Bixler. She lived with her parents and siblings in Monde Apartments in Los Angeles, California. At some point in her life, Bridget became a global warming activist, and began attending protests opposing large corporations whose companies threatened nature. After Jay's departure from the family, Bridget continued to live with her mother and siblings in the Monde Apartments building.

Two months after Jay left the family, Bridget's aunt Beth arrived at the apartment to see her sister and the children. Though the visit was initially filled with laughter and presents, Ellie sent all three of her children out to go pick up a few pizzas when Beth inquired about Jay.

Shortly thereafter, Bridget, Danny, and Kassie returned with food and drinks, and had just pulled into the apartment's parking garage when an earthquake struck the Los Angeles area. When the tremor finally ended, Danny noticed that an underground vault hidden beneath the (now fractured) pavement had been unearthed. Though Bridget warned him about going into the vault, her older brother proceeded to explore anyway, eventually recovering a strange old book and a series of century-old vinyl recordings.

### Human Death + Resurrection

Upon returning to the upstairs apartment, Bridget examined Danny's "treasures" from the vault, unsettled by the book bound in flesh and the ghoulish illustrations found in it's blood-inked pages. After Bridget left the room, Danny listened to the vinyl recordings, and accidentally awakened an ancient demonic spirit in the process. The demon attacked Ellie as she was headed to the apartment's laundry room, resulting in her slow transformation into a Deadite. The possessed Ellie attacked Bridget with a tattoo gun contaminated with her evil-infected blood, jamming it directly into her daughter's cheek.

Some time shortly after Ellie was locked out of the apartment, Bridget went to the kitchen to tend to the injury on her face inflicted by her mother, only to start coughing up black bile and insects. Soon, Beth found Bridget in the kitchen eating a wine glass in order to "kill the creepy crawlies in her tummy", now a Deadite like her mother. Bridget attacked her aunt before going after her young sister, only for Kassie to protect herself with a crude weapon called "Staffanie", which penetrated directly through Bridget's head.

With Bridget incapacitated, Danny proceeded to wrap his sister's body in a black bag and tie her up on the off-chance she got back up. His plan did not work, and while Beth was listening to the final vinyl recording in an attempt to learn about what exactly was happening, Bridget got up and stabbed Danny in the shoulder with a pair of scissors. Danny fought back by using a spray can and the open flame of the oven, watching as his sister became engulfed in flames before collapsing.

### Deadite Death

Soon, Beth and Kassie made an attempt at an escape from the apartment, only to be followed by the Deadite Ellie, Bridget, and Danny, who proceeded to morph their bodies into a single creature known as "The Marauder". As The Marauder, the trio gave chase to Beth and Kassie as they made their way into the parking garage, playing a game of "cat and mouse" before finally leading Beth towards a nearby large mobile wood-chipper. With Kassie's help, Beth attacked the Marauder with a chainsaw, forcing it to stumble back into the re-activated wood-chipper. The machine made quick work of grinding the monster into a bloody pulp until only Ellie's head remained. As Ellie let out one last series of taunts, Beth kicked her sister's head into the chipper, causing it to explode instantly. James give her Deadite death the Golden Chainsaw alongside Deadite Ellie and Deadite Danny because it was gory and cool as hell.
