Carol Anne Freeling

The youngest daughter of the Freeling family, Carol Anne's birth while the family home sat on top of a burial ground signaled trapped spirits who could only be led into the light by Carol Anne.

With the help of psychic Tangina, the family rescued Carol Anne from the other side, but the ghosts, led by Reverend Kane, kept returning. On the third attempt, Kane allied himself with a demon to get to Carol Anne, but with the help of the Nightmare Warriors, Kane and The Kid were thwarted, although Carol Anne's older brother Robbie died saving her and ultimately sacrificed himself to lead Kane and his followers into the light.

It was at this time that Andy Barclay became smitten with Carol Anne, who was turned off by Andy's alcoholism. After Andy risked his life to save her, Carol Anne told Andy to clean himself up and she'd consider going on a date with him when she was old enough to date, putting Andy on the path to sobriety.
