Biography[]
Evil Dead[]
Not much is known about her past other than that she is friends with David, Eric and Mia, and is also a registered nurse.
She and Eric were both around to experience Mia's first overdose (something not even her own brother was aware of until the cabin trip), and she was the most adamant on forcing Mia to not return home as she feared for her health. She has a background in medicine and is very confident in her treatment abilities, convincing David and the group that Mia was in capable hands with her after the latter crashed a car in the thick bog.
When Mia escapes from the cabin in a vain attempt to avoid the demon that was after her, Olivia and David find her curled up by a tree and bring Mia back to the house, were Olivia treats Mia’s wounds and is reluctant to take her to a hospital. After Mia becomes completely possessed and shoots David in the shoulder, Olivia tries to reach for the gun, but Mia stops her and begins to vomit red fluid on Olivia’s face. David demands Olivia give Mia a shot to put her in a coma before Mia kills herself, and so goes to get the medicine. Olivia enters the bathroom and washes her face, before investigating the cabinet for the medicine. As she's looking away, the cabinet slowly closes to reveal Olivia's demonic reflection in the mirror with an open Glasgow smile. Olivia backs away from the mirror and begins to walk out of the room, before she’s stopped cold in her tracks, unable to control her muscles. The book flips to a page showing an illustration of a person who has de-gloved their face, as she drops the medicine and twitches violently, before urinating on herself.
After waiting too long for Olivia's return, Eric goes to investigate and finds the bathroom door closed. He slowly approaches the door and opens it, calling out Olivia's name. He enters the room and asks Olivia what she's doing. He approaches Olivia and pulls back the shower curtain, as Olivia turns around to reveal the gaping hole she's made in the left side of her mouth. Eric backs away before slipping on a piece of Olivia's cheek, causing him to fall and collapse to the floor. He rolls over, aching in pain, and attempts to crawl away, however the door closes shut right in front of him. Olivia approaches Eric and kneels down on top of him, before stabbing him with the knife. After this, she picks up the syringe and begins stabbing Eric over and over while letting out a series of sharp screams. Eric gets up, overpowering her, and pushes her away, causing her to fall into the toilet, breaking a large piece of it off. She collapses back, hitting the back of her head on the shower's surround. She gets back up and begins to crawl back over to Eric. She raises the knife and lets out a low wail, but before she can stab him again, Eric grabs the broken-off piece of the toilet and begins to bash Olivia's head in with it. He hits her head repeatedly until it is nothing but a bloody pulp.
Unlike Mia and Natalie, she did not show any signs of intelligible speech after becoming a Deadite, with her only having the ability to scream. However, this is likely because of what she had done to her mouth post-possession.
