Official description[]

"A spooky presence inside the house, Jennifer is very jealous of her belongings. Rosemary is terrified by her and she cannot be blamed for this. Meeting Jennifer in the middle of the night is not something for the faint of heart. Is Jennifer the one Rosemary is looking for? Is she Celeste?"

- Tormented Fathers official biography [1]

Personality[]

Despite being an old woman in her 70s, Jennifer likes to imagine herself as a young girl about Celeste's age and even manages to imitate her daughter's voice. She is mentally stuck in her childhood years as she enjoys childlike activities like playing with dolls, watching TV, or singing lullabies to herself. She took up dressmaking as her hobby to replace gardening and has a large collection of dresses displayed on the mannequins in the loft. Jennifer's face is always hidden under the wig as she hates looking at it.

She sometimes calls for her parents, believing them to still be alive. She hates her father for forcing her to live as Richard, not allowing her to be herself, and deeply misses her mother and how happy they were with him away.

Jennifer keeps her possessions in the loft and in the wine cellar and is extremely protective of them as she attacks Rosemary for touching a photograph of hers. She appears to be self-aware as she apologized to Rosemary for her behavior and for the actions of her other personality, whom she refers to as "Richard" or "Felton". Jennifer harbors a deep hatred and fear towards the Red Nun as she had turned Richard against her. It's unclear if she realizes that Gloria is her real identity, but she is aware that Gloria's responsible for hypnotising Richard.

Jennfer seemingly hates Celeste, as the girl was a product of rape and a reminder of everything Jennifer wasn't allowed to be. Nevertheless, during her final moments, Jennifer accepts Celeste as her daughter.

As a stalker, she carries a hammer and later a nail gun.

Early life (1920-1930)[]

Jennifer-roses

Jennifer in her childhood

Jennifer used to be a cheerful little girl and a talented gardener as she won an award for the best roses when she was only nine. She had a loving relationship with her mother who was proud of her talents. She didn't seem to like her father, who wanted a male heir as he considered women to be weak.

After Mr. Felton had returned from the war in Ethiopia, he underwent the treatment for PTSD with the use of Phenoxyl, an experimental drug created to treat the veterans to make them forget the horrors of war, but the treatment only worsened Mr. Felton's mental state, turning him abusive to his wife and daughter. After the death of Jennifer's mother, her father started treating her as a boy and made her live under the name Richard, a son he always wanted. Under the new identity, Jennifer was isolated from her friends and was forced to take hormonal supplements and Phenoxyl pills to make her forget about her mother and her early life[2].

Living as Richard (1930-1973)[]

Jennifer's mental image

In 1957, Felton was raped by Stefano Ashmann, which led to the birth of Celeste in 1958. During the pregnancy Felton took massive doses of Phenoxyl to bury the memories of his trauma completely, which caused the unwanted memories to take form in Jennifer, who saw herself as an innocent little girl she wasn't allowed to be (phenomenon dubbed "porcelain memory").

Unknowingly, Felton was used as test subject for Wyman's experiments on collective consciousness. Suffering from Alzheimer's, Wyman was honing to use Felton as a host by erasing the memories of Jennifer from Felton's mind and replacing them with his own. Jennifer was proven to be impossible to erase as seeing Celeste growing up kept reminding Felton of his former self. Jennifer would sometimes appear to Richard and he saw her image even in other women.

As Celeste grew older, Jennifer pushed Richard to send her away as the girl was no longer safe with her family. It's implied Jennifer revealed herself to Celeste at some point, which scared the girl and caused her to run away.

Celeste returns (1973)[]

Jennifer meeting her daughter

In 1973, Jennifer visits Celeste in her bedroom after she returned home. Appearing to be concerned for her daughter, Jennifer warns her of the incoming danger from the Red Nun. She tells Celeste to follow her, hoping the girl will set her free.[3]

After Celeste had escaped from the Villa, Jennifer would spend the following 19 years under Gloria's influence who had managed to completely subdue Richard, turning him against his family and other self. As result, Jennifer's mind regressed to a childlike state where she couldn't tell apart her daughter's photographs from hers and mistook Richard and Arianna for her own parents. She also grew to despise Celeste as she scratched her face out of the family portraits.

Events of Tormented Fathers (1992)[]

Jennifer was first seen in a photograph Rosemary assumed to be of young Celeste. She is properly introduced after the appearance of the Red Nun caused horror-struck Richard to run away, allowing Jennifer to take control. She then retreats to the loft, where Rosemary spots her hiding among the mannequins. After Rosemary takes the picture of Arianna and Celeste, Jennifer ambushes Rosemary and chases her around the loft, causing Rosemary to trip and fall down.

Jennifer takes Rosemary into the previously locked living room where she watches TV. After Rosemary regains consciousness, Jennifer notes how she looks like the wanted woman from the TV report. Jennifer apologizes for attacking Rosemary but warns her about touching her things. She gives Rosemary a hint about a door hidden away behind the fireplace on the first floor, where Rosemary can find what she's looking for. Rosemary takes a risk by taking the batteries out of Jennifer's TV remote, which enrages the latter and she attacks Rosemary with a hammer.

After falling down into the wine cellar, Rosemary finds Jennifer's wall of memories along with her birth certificate, where she realizes the truth about Felton's identity. Jennifer then finds Rosemary and chases her with a nail gun.

Later when Rosemary tries to escape after being drugged by Gloria, Jennifer re-appears and knocks her out. Both are then taken by Gloria to a mesmerism session, where Felton questions Rosemary's real motives.

Death[]

Jennifer on the swing

In a dream-like sequence, Jennifer is seen swinging while slowly fading away in the distance explaining how she often mistakes the photographs of Celeste for old pictures of herself and she's able to tell them apart only when her mind is clear. As both identities start to merge, Richard finally accepts the painful memories of his childhood and Jennifer accepts Celeste as her daughter. The angered Gloria interferes and cuts off Felton's tongue to prevent them from talking. The remaining part of Felton's identity, still under the heavy influence of Phenoxyl, is manipulated by Gloria to burn down the house with themselves and Rosemary in it. However, Rosemary manages to free herself and sets Felton on fire. When Rosemary wakes up, she sees Felton's burnt body and contemplates their tragic fate, blaming Jennifer's father for ruining his daughter's life.

Post mortem and legacy[]

After her body was found by the police, the truth behind Dr. Felton's identity became public. The photographs of her and Richard are shown on a news report detailing the events that occurred at the Felton Villa.

Celeste Felton used her nickname "Jennifer", given by Richard, as an alias after she ran away.
