Megan Holmes is the daughter of Luke and Stacy Holmes and the first ghost Sal Fisher encounters in the game.
Appearance
Megan is short, although this is to be expected given her age. She greatly resembles her mother bearing no characteristics from her father. She wears a gray dress or nightgown that goes past her feet and bears purple hair and a pair of purple eyes, which following her death have become a paler shade, almost milky white.
Personality
Megan is a very sweet individual who is easily trusting of Sally Face but cautious around newcomers such as Larry and even Todd. Being so young, Megan scares easily much like her ghost brethren when the Red-Eyed Demon is on the approach.
Biography
Young and innocent, Megan Holmes lived a relatively normal childhood in the small community of Nockfell under the protective eye of her Christian mother and the neglect of her father.
While her mother transpired against the Devourers of God, Megan continued to play, relaxed and carefree. When she stayed out too late but found her way back to the cult's church, her mother gifted her with her grandmother's cross necklace, telling her it would protect her from harm.
In 1987, she, alongside the rest of her family, was killed by her own father Luke Holmes under the influence of the Red-Eyed Demon. Megan's corpse was later dumped in Wendigo Lake alongside those of her parents.
As a ghost, she meets Sal Fisher in the restroom of room 504 and quickly made friends with the blue-haired boy but was quickly scared away by the entrance of Chug Cohen, the only other resident who knew of her. She returned briefly to converse with Sal after the boy completed a mysterious game detailing her death but ultimate
When Sal returns Megan's necklace, she is overjoyed and comes out of hiding, showing herself to the skeptic Larry. Before she could fully disclose the details of her demise, she was scared back into hiding by the Red-Eyed Demon.
When the Red-Eyed Demon disappears, Megan, alongside the other ghostly residents of Addison Apartments, come out of hiding and are able to inhabit the complex in relative peace.
Like the other ghostly residents of the apartment building, Megan was likely assimilated weeks before the return of The Dark.
