“...she's my little girl. We just want her back. […] There was no bear or a cat. We didn't hear any animals. Somebody grabbed her. Somebody took her from us.” |
Christine Wilbur is a minor character in Power Drill Massacre.
Description[]
Appearance[]
Christine is a young Caucasian girl with brown hair braided into pigtails. She wears a blue-grey checkered dress with a white collar, black shoes, white long socks and red hairbands.
History[]
Little is known about Christine's background. According to an undated, torn newspaper article that can be found in the Branden Sawmill, which also lists her name, sometime before 1987, she was camping with her parents in the Pennsylvanian Poconos. While she was playing near the bushes by the edge of the campsite area, she was abducted. Police launched a criminal investigation, although a prevalent theory revolves around a wild animal attack, something Mr. and Mrs. Wilbur dismiss, instead believing their daughter was kidnapped by a human assailant.
Christine's presence in the mill all but confirm this to have been the work of the Driller Killer and like his other victims, she was presumably taken to his hideout in the old factory and killed. In the Sugar Tunnel, Megan can find a teddy bear on the ground, which was presumably Christine's toy, also hinting that the killer dragged her to his lair through the Sugar Tunnel, where she dropped it along the way.
Power Drill Massacre[]
For most of the game, Christine has a minor role, mainly frightening Megan as she lurks through the tunnels of the sawmill. She can be seen running down corridors and staircases, before disappearing into walls or thin air.
In Ending A, after Megan collects all 3 keys and unlocks the door, Christine appears in the long hallway she enters. Megan calls out to her her, but Christine doesn't answer. Approaching the little girl, she instead runs away. Megan chases after her and when she catches up, Christine stops running. The Driller Killer then appears and rushes through Christine, dematerializing once he passes through her, never to be seen again.
Trivia[]
- Christine appears to be modelled after Esther, the main antagonist of Orphan (2009).
- Inside the Driller Killer's lair, a skeleton can be found sprawled across a filthy mattress, which is covered in dried blood and handprints. Since the skeleton is visibly much smaller than Megan, it likely belongs to a child, quite possibly even that of Christine.
- Christine is one of two known ghost characters wandering the halls of the abandoned factory, the other being the nameless specter seen by the entry stairwell of the building.
- Other child characters with similar roles appear in other Puppet Combo games, such as Janie in Nun Massacre or the blonde-haired girl in Murder House.
- Christine's model is used in a beta build promo for Murder House, sitting on the lap of the Easter Ripper.
