Appearance
Ellen is a young girl with characteristically light purple hair and golden eyes[1]. Due to a generational curse, she is inflicted with an illness that causes her skin to crack and bleed[1] (possibly some variation of epidermolysis bullosa) so she is covered in bandages that get changed often due to the blood that stains them. Due to being bedridden, her expression is generally of envy and aloofness.
Due to the magic of the mansion that she resides in, Ellen's disease is disguised and appears as a healthy young girl. She wears a well-tailored white blouse, a red one-piece dress, and a red ribbon on her hair, but remains barefoot[2]. She wears a fake smile in order to lure victims into mansion after becoming disillusioned.
After making a one-sided deal with Viola, Ellen disfigures her body by amputating her legs and gouging out her eyeballs[3] to get rid of her old body.
Personality
- Lonely Child: Due to Ellen's illness leaving her largely bedridden and appearance full of bloody blisters, Ellen is unable to make any connections (including her father who refuses to look at her) with anybody except her mother for the first part of her life[1]. She watches outside the window and adores the black cat she watches on occasion from her bedroom.
- Deadly Dependency: Ellen's mother is the only person who acknowledges her and at first takes full care of her. This causes Ellen to become afraid of losing her mother's love as she equated it to dying[1]. After leaving her house due to wanting to bury the black cat's corpse, she returns back home and causes an irreparable damage between her and her mother, leaving Ellen alone with her neglectful father[4]. After an unspecified amount of time, Ellen finds her mom back in the house wearing different clothing and smelling different, at first she was overjoyed of her returning, but seeing her like this made her realize that she was abandoning her and her father, so she grabbed a knife and killed her[5].
- Bloody Tantrums: After the murder of her mother, Ellen expected her father to finally give her attention no matter what, but instead he ignored her like always, fueling her rage and killing him as well[5]. After befriending a young boy, she leaves the mansion grounds despite the warning of the Black Cat, revealing her true form to the boy, scaring him off[6]. This caused a permanent change in her character as when the boy came back to apologize, she fed him to the house and would continue to do so for centuries[7]. She hates the idea that she herself is evil because she has killed people for her own reasons and tried to justify her actions as morally gray to a dying person who died before she could even finish her explanation [8].
- Loss of Humanity: As a result of various influences affecting Ellen as an individual and a tempting offer made by the Black Cat, she continued to murder people, as she at first only tricked children into her home to feed the house, but later would come to kill just about anyone who came inside the mansion's grounds. She stopped seeing herself as anything but a witch with the name of "Ellen"[8]. The moment she saw Viola, she knew that she would be the perfect person to take over their body, so she lured her into her mansion and played the role of a sickly child who was alone to gain Viola's trust and eventually betray her[9]. To ensure that Viola never got her own body back, Ellen mutilated her body to make Viola's last hour of life much more painful, even giving her poison to hamper her screams as she laughed at her misfortune[10]. At the end of The Witch's House (Game), she uses her "Cute Little Bottle" that contained Ellen's despair[11] (which allows Ellen's body, which is currently inhabited by Viola, to die) to escape the mansion grounds, stabs her eye while taunting her, and then pretends to be her to get Viola's father to kill Viola by accident, giggling at her corpse[12].

Relationships
Unnamed Mother
Ellen's mother was the only person that seemed to care for her, at least on the surface. She had light-brown hair and carried the scent of sweet confections (possibly making some herself) which Ellen liked[1] and eventually became the source of her despair[11]. She sacrificed herself by taking care of Ellen's seven years of life and took care of Ellen's illness, taking a toll on her body[1] as she also worked a job on the side[4]. Since Ellen's father ignored her, Ellen was very dependent on her mother for affection, to the point that she started to envy her[1][5]. She prohibited Ellen from going outside due to her condition[1]. Her relationship to her husband is implied to be not the best due to money troubles[1]. Upon returning home early one day and seeing Ellen had gone outside, seemingly being her breaking point, she silently cleaned her up and then left the household, leaving Ellen with her dad who did not care for her[4]. One night, she returned back home for one last time wearing clean and elegant clothing and a different perfume (presumably in an affair with a richer man), where she encountered Ellen in a bit of a surprise and hugs her, apologizing for leaving and will not return. This causes Ellen to snap and kill her brutally by stabbing her repeatedly with a knife[5]. Her soul's "remains" are located in a prison cell within the mansion, which Ellen actively avoids due to her resentment[8].
Unnamed Father
Ellen's father was a neglectful and stressed man who seems to always be down on his luck. He characteristically had the same colored hair as Ellen, being the parent that continued the curse onto her[1]. Due to being sickly due to the curse, he actively refused to acknowledge her existence, only really loving and doting his wife instead. This causes Ellen grief, making her wish she had the same hair as her mother in order to receive the same love and affection she does[1]. It is implied that he always carries monetary issues due to his job not paying him well and having to take loans, due to this, he is usually having sex with his wife (whether consensual or not is not clear), in a way to relieve his frustration[1]. Upon his wife's disappearance, he shattered emotional and broke down in grief[1]. Despite being with his daughter, he continued to ignore her, speaking to objects instead of her, and not even restocking the medical supplies needed for Ellen's condition[13]. Ellen noticed that her dad was at home more often, suggesting that he might have been fired from his job due to not showing up to work[13]. Ellen noted that her father received a strange packet from a man in exchange for money, leaving his room less and less with an increasingly sweet smell coming out of it, until he stopped coming out of him room all together (suggesting he had become addicted to opium)[13]. After hearing the commotion outside his room, he finally left his room in the first time in a while, looking like a husk of his former self. He looked at the corpse of his wife, Ellen called out to him saying she caused this, expecting some kind of attention from her father. Instead, her father was overwhelmed by grief and wailed at the sight of his wife, Ellen completely baffled and enraged, kills her father in a blind fury as her despair grew too much for her[5]. Ellen stumbled a bit after realizing what she had done and accidentally knocked down his lit pipe, causing her house to burn down[14]. His soul's "remains" are found in a cell next to his wife's, where he is still addicted to using his pipe, which causes Ellen to feel a bit sad[8].
