Biography[]

Emma Craven 004

Emma is very emo.

Emma Craven was an attractive blonde-haired girl who appeared to be about seventeen or eighteen years of age in the year 2011. She was the youngest child of the affluent Craven family and lived in an upper-class home in the hills of Los Angeles, California. Her parents were named Ross and Sarah, and she had an older brother named Steven. She was dating a boy named Nico Bradley who was brother Steven's best friend.

Steven and Nico abruptly left town, seeking to live the good life by driving to Tijuana, Mexico. While highly intoxicated in a Mexican cantina, the boys met a vagrant, who offered them the opportunity to experience the ultimate in human sensation by giving them a Lemarchand puzzle box. Nico solved the mystery of the box, which opened a doorway to Hell, summoning the demonic beings known as the Cenobites.

A duffel bag containing the boys' belongings as well as a camcorder and the Lemarchand puzzle box made its way back to the Craven household. Mother Sarah had observed the twisted imagery on the camera and kept the bag secreted away. Emma, distraught because her brother and boyfriend had been missing, wanted to look through their things, but Sarah refused. Emma took note of the puzzle box and became instantly entranced.

One evening, the Cravens hosted a dinner and invited Nico's parents, Peter and Kate. Emma expressed a fondness for her boyfriend's father, and stroked her finger across his back as she left the room. While her mother was busying herself with guests, Emma sneaked into her room and found the puzzle box. Tinkering with it, she experienced intense flashes of images of Hell.

Suddenly, Steven mysteriously appeared on their doorstep, apparently in a state of shock and dehydration. His parents brought him inside and nursed him back to health. Emma brought him some soup, and Steven continued to stare at her in a lecherous way. He then leaned in close and the two began kissing. Steven slid his hand into Emma's shirt and began fondling her breast.

Emma soon discovered that the boy she had been kissing, whom she believed was brother, was actually boyfriend Nico. Nico had found a way to return from Hell and killed Steven. He skinned him and wore his flesh as a disguise - a disguise effective enough to fool everyone.

Emma and Nico

Yo, girl! That's your brother!

Nico went downstairs and took up a shotgun. His father Peter had already been killed by the vagrant by this point. He shot Ross Craven in the mid-section, causing him to fall back upon the couch. Nico revealed that he knew that his mother had been having an affair with Emma's father.

Producing the Lemarchand puzzle box, Nico made Emma open it. The walls between reality and Hell fell away and the Cenobites emerged. Nico tried to bargain for his own soul by trading it with Emma's, but the Cenobites were in no mood to negotiate. They were owed a deficit of blood. The Cenobites killed Sarah Craven and Kate Bradley, then took Nico back to Hell. They left Emma unmolested. Her father succumbed to his injuries moments later.

Left alone with all of her family dead, Emma stared deep into the Lemarchand puzzle box as a quizzical smile crossed her face. [1]
