Background
She is a morbidly obese older woman, named for her fondness for tea, who lives in a small trailer near the Hewitt house with Henrietta, apparently her daughter. In 2003 she and Henrietta give Erin drugged tea. She is close to the Hewitts and knows what they do, but neither approves nor objects. In the novelization of the remake she is called Henrietta and lives alone.
