—Hester to Dean Munsch[src]

Hester Ulrich, also known as Chanel #6, is a main character and antagonist on Scream Queens.

In Season One, she was a pledge of Kappa Kappa Tau, pretending to suffer from scoliosis in order to draw attention away from herself as one of the Red Devils. After framing the Chanels for the murders, she goes on to become the Treasure of Kappa Kappa Tau. While she had seemingly gotten away with her plan, she was eventually convicted for her crimes and sentenced to life in prison. In Season Two, she is transferred to the C.U.R.E. Institute in order to assist with the investigation of the Green Meanie murders. Afterwards, she steals all of Cathy Munsch's money and runs off with Dr. Brock Holt to Blood Island.

She is portrayed by Lea Michele.

Hester during Hell Week

Hell Week[]

Hester is present when dean Cathy Munsch introduces Detective Chisolm to the Kappa Kappa Tau girls. Later, when The Chanels are discussing what to do with Sonya Herfmann's dead body, Hester suddenly appears behind them and says that she knows what they should do because she is obsessed with death. Hester gives the insane ideas of putting her in a food processor or boning her. Chanel Oberlin gets disgusted by Hester's ideas and decides to put #2's body in a freezer until she decides to revisit the question of what to do with her when she is not disgusted by Hester. The Chanels and Hester take #2's body to that freezer and Hester closes her eyes so that she will not "take one of them with her." Hester asks if she can call them "mom" because she feels so protected by the three of them. The Chanels find it extremely weird, but ultimately accept so she can stop talking.

Hester is later seen cleaning the floor of Kappa house with the other new pledges. After that, Chanel is writing things on the bellies of the Kappa sisters, but later is attacked by Red Devil. The Kappa girls go to check if the Red Devil is still in the house and Hester grabs something made of porcelain to defend herself. When they enter a room, they see "SLUTS WILL DIE" written on the wall and scream horrified. In the last "Hell Week" dinner, Chanel gives the pledges dirty water to drink and Hester drinks it all. Chanel later calls Hester a psychopath and she takes it as a compliment. When Denise Hemphill and Chad Radwell interrupt the dinner to announce that Shondell and Boone are dead and Hester starts to worry.

Hester in Chanel's closet

Hester is later seen walking into Chanel's closet and begins trying on some of Chanel's clothes. She is then interrupted by Chanel as she walks in, and Chanel says she feels as though Hester has violated her "closet vag." Hester then asks Chanel if Karl Lagerfeld is her uncle after stating that every year he restocks her closet. Chanel assures her that he is not her actual uncle but is only called her uncle due to her mom and his relationship. Hester wanted to know everything about him. She expresses how much she wanted to be a fashion girl but tragedy struck. Chanel asks her if that is why she is in that neck brace. Hester denies it and admits that it is because she has severe scoliosis that stunted her growth. She then whispers to Chanel that they wear the same size. Chanel then had an idea come to mind. She thought of giving Hester a makeover so there would be one less "disaster" inside the Kappa house, and she could get herself more popular.
Chanel -6

Hester is then seen walking downstairs with a new look, and Chanel introduces her as "Chanel #6." Chanel #5 is outraged by this and says a pledge cannot be a Chanel. Grace compliments Hester, and Hester thanks Grace and tells her that despite the pain from not wearing her neckbrace, she has never been happier in her entire life. Chanel #5 tells Chanel that she does not respect any of the girls or the rules of the house and that she does not deserve to be President of Kappa, and Zayday agrees with her. Chanel then announces that they are going to play a game called "Cocaine or Dildo." but she is interrupted by Dean Munsch and Gigi as they come in with luggage and announce that they are moving into the house for the week.

She appears behind him suddenly and they begin to talk about how they are both obsessed with death and soon Hester starts to seduce him through the topic. Chad asks for them to do it on a grave but, Hester says it is not scary enough and says to him that he might be lucky if he gets a text saying a "better" location they should meet at. Later, when The Chanels are handing out invitations for Chanel's haunted pumpkin patch party for her campaign, Hester says that she joined Kappa in the first place for whatever reason Chanel did. The four of them later start eating cotton balls for lunch so they will not gain weight, but Chanel gets sick of it and decides to go for a pizza instead. They are interrupted by a student named Tommy who gets into a fight with The Chanels after making sexist comments along with his friend Rick. Full of anger, Hester kicks Tommy between the legs and punches him on the face. Having both guys on the floor, the girls start kicking them and throwing trash at them, which is later acclaimed by the other students.

Grace then returns as the ladies all prepare to vote.

Seven Minutes in Hell[]

Hester is later seen in the living room as Zayday announces that Kappa will be having a slumber party. Chanel is not a fan of the idea and they begin to argue until Chanel #3 interrupts them by saying it is a good idea and that they should play "Spin the Bottle" and some Kappa sisters give in.

Sam and Jennifer walk in without the ice Chanel demanded and tell her that the doors and windows are locked. All the sisters check the doors and windows and come to the conclusion that they are trapped.

The game ends after Sam exposes #3's secret as she is Charles Manson's daughter, #3 later tells Sam to sleep in the bathtub downstairs in the Kappa basement. Chad proposes a break and heads into the kitchen. While in the kitchen, Chad is seen looking for food until Hester appears.

Chanel later appears and Hester leaves with wine coolers for the Kappa sisters.

As they begin to play "Seven Minutes in Heaven," everyone hears a scream from the basement as it turns out to be Hester after discovering Sam's body. Everyone begins to accuse Hester of being the killer because she found the body and Hester decides that someone should watch after her if another murder occurs and nominates Chad.

After the group hears another scream coming from the closet, they discover a frightened Chanel #5 and a dead Roger, Hester says it could not have been her since she was with the group at the time of his death. Chad confirms that there are two Red Devils and later finds a trap door in the closet and they assume that is how the Red Devil got in and out of the house. Chanel and Zayday decide to explore it.

The next night, the Kappa sisters are seen in the living room as Chanel gifts them custom-made pink nunchaku. Zayday later commences a dance party and Hester describes it as "wonderfully random." Hester is finally seen as she shouts "Kappa" as the Red Devil is seen looking through the window.

Beware of Young Girls[]

Hester was first seen inside the Kappa house for Chanel #2's funeral. She is later seen with The Chanels are they walk to Chanel's closet to check on her. #5 expresses how she cannot believe #2 and Chad had sex, Hester adds on as she says that she found it so shocking that #2 would betray Chanel like that. Chanel sarcastically asks her if she really found it "so shocking", and exposes Hester for trying to sleep with Chad and framing her for murder, Chanel later blames Hester for her arrest. Hester apologizes to Chanel and promises to not betray her trust again, Chanel assures her that she will not betray her trust again because she no longer has it. #5 interrupts by saying that she needs to contact #2 to give her a chance to do right by Chanel. Chanel asks her how and #5 shows the ouija board she found inside the basement. Chanel tells her that they do not work, and Hester tells her that they and asks her if she saw the movie, "Ouija." Chanel assures her she did not, and that no one did. Chanel #3 announces that they are having a Chanel night, where they heal all wounds between the group, both alive or dead. Chanel #3 says that she will order duck sauce for their cotton balls and they will contact #2 to prove that she is sorry and asks Chanel if she is in.

The Chanels are later seen in a dim room surrounded by the board. Chanel admits that the board looks evil as #5 tries to comfort her by showing her all the details on the board. Chanel #3 then explains how the board is supposed to work, they all place their hands on the planchette and attempt to contact Chanel #2. As they move the planchette, hoping for a response, the planchette quickly moves to the "hello" sign. Hester is shocked that the board is actually working, #5 says that they have to ask her a question only #2 would know. Chanel then asks the board if #5's vagina has teeth as it moves to "yes." The board begins to move by itself which shocks the girls, it then spells out "Chad is cheating." Hester assumes that it means that Chad is cheating on Chanel, Chanel is in disbelief as Chad promised he would be monogamous. The planchette later says "It is true." Angered by this, Chanel storms out of the room to prove #2 wrong.

Hester and The Chanels are seen back in the room to contact Chanel #2. Once they get a connection, Chanel expresses her anger towards #2 after she lied about Chad cheating on her with a goat and explains his disability that he can only drink lactose-free goat milk. Chanel #5 interrupts her by saying that #2 never said he was cheating on Chanel with a goat, Chanel quickly shuts her up. Hester tells #2 to prove she is present by asking her how many tampons she has in her purse, the planchette lands on "9" and Hester admits that she is correct. Chanel questions how large Hester's cooch is after she reveals her nine tampons. Chanel #3 then asks #2 what breakfast cereal she almost choked on as a child, the planchette lands on "Ix," Chanel assumes it is "Dix" but #3 assures her it was "Kix." #5 suggests that they should stop but Chanel shuts her down and continues. Chanel then asks the board who the killer was as the planchette spelled "You." Chanel is outraged by this answer and tells #2 to have fun burning in hell as she storms. The Chanels are frozen in fear as they look at each other and run to the bathroom. Hester believes that #2 is telling the truth from beyond the grave, #3 then asks if they should really believe a satanic talking board. Hester implies they should due to it knowing how many tampons she had in her purse. #3 admits that they cannot tell the police because she will only get bailed out again. Hester then comes up with the plan that they have to kill Chanel before she kills them.

Hester is seen in the kitchen with #3 and #5 as they plot to kill Chanel. #5 suggests that they poison her bras, Hester explains to her that it is a horrible idea, and suggests that they crush diamonds and have a sugar party and feed Chanel the diamonds that would kill her from the inside. #5 questions the sugar party but it is shut down by #3 as she thinks it is a great idea. Chanel then appears and asks what their great idea is. Hester explains to her that they were planning to throw a sugar party as Chanel expresses her liking to them. Chanel asks for Prunex, which are her liquid laxatives. After Chanel grabs her Prunex, she goes back upstairs to head to bed. Once Chanel walks out, Hester announces that after Chanel falls asleep, they are going to murder Chanel.

Hester was later seen in the living room with the Chanels. Chanel exposes their plan for trying to kill her. The Chanels are shocked by this accusation as Hester says she would sooner kill her own mother. Chanel blames them for being slow about her death and gives them presents. Once they open them, they discover detective hats and magnifying glasses. Chanel tells the girls that Feather is not the actual Red Devil killer and that he is still on the run. Chanel then explains to the girls that they need her and how they need to catch the actual killers are Grace and Zayday.

Hester is lastly seen with The Chanels as they look above Grace and Zayday as they walk inside the Kappa house.

Mommie Dearest[]

Hester is seen when the Chanels and Denise find Jennifer covered in candle wax.

Chanel -6 tumble

Hester later reveals that she was not actually pregnant and she was pretending to be in order to get Chanel out of her way. She gets into an argument with Chanel and says that she will still have Chad get her pregnant. Chanel becomes furious with her and ultimately pushes her down the stairs, presumably breaking her neck. Chanel then says to her minions "let's put her in the meat locker."

Thanksgiving[]

Hester is mentioned by Chanel #1 when Chad asks about her, and she says that she killed her. Chad asks Chanel if she could see Hester in the meat locker, and Chanel says yes, but not because you want to have sex with the body.

Chanel later opens the meat locker and finds that her body is missing, and Chad gets mad about the dead bodies always disappearing.

Late in the episode, at the Thanksgiving part at the Hamptons with the Radwells, the servant arrives at the table and announces that a surprise guest has come and it is Hester. Chanel is distressed to see her there and whispers angrily to Hester about her sudden appearance, and why she is alive. Hester states that the neck brace saved her from dying.

Hester later reveals that she has "Chad's baby" inside her, and Chad's mother argues with her, saying it is a poo belly, and everybody laughs.

After that, they play a game of Pictionary, which Chad previously stated that it would be weird, due to both Chanel and Hester in it. In the end, we see that Hester and The Chanels are friends again.

Black Friday[]

While shopping at the mall, the Red Devil appears. Hester, #3, and #5 all run away, but Chanel stays behind and is shot in the shoulder with a crossbow.

Hester tries to help freeze Dean Munsch later (after Grace and Chanel already have tried to poison her) but it does not work. Hester says that Cathy may be like Rasputin: immune to anything except being drowned. Chanel gives Hester, Zayday, #3, and #5 new phones that will glow red when Chanel calls, signaling them to come to the pool where they will drown Cathy. However, Hester, Libby, and #3 are busy yelling at a lingerie saleswoman and they don not see their phones glowing, causing them not to go to the pool, angering Chanel.

Dorkus[]

As #1, #3, #5, Grace and Zayday are interrogating the pizza man in the Red Devil costume, Hester runs into the entry hall, saying she saw something terrible. Chanel does not really seem to care, however, and ignores Hester. Hester presses her, though, saying she saw a woman covered in scars and mumbling "something dork". Chanel tells Hester that it does not matter because they have found the Red Devil (the pizza man), but he reveals that there is dynamite strapped to his chest. The girls take cover, and he explodes soon after.

Grace and Zayday are researching the Chanels, per Pete's comment about how the Red Devil is one of Grace's sisters. Grace and Zayday find one of the Chanels with no true records: an address on Sesame Street, graduation records from Sweet Valley High, and more. This is later revealed to be Hester.

Once Grace and Zayday return home with Chanel and #3, they all hear a loud scream. #5 joins them to find the source of the scream. #5 says that it may have come from Chanel's closet. They all go into the closet to find Hester unconscious on the ground with a stiletto heel in her eyeball. Hester suddenly awakens, gasping for air and points to #5 in fear, shakily saying, "Red Devil!"

The Final Girl(s)[]

While Grace and Zayday are talking to the new pledges, Hester has a voiceover where she talks about her eyepatch and how she stabbed herself in the eye to frame Libby while not seriously injuring herself.

Killller

Hester wearing an eyepatch.

Hester also says that she studied the anatomy of her eye to miss any vital organs. Hester reveals that she was the bathtub baby girl, and faked having scoliosis, having stolen the neck brace from another patient in the asylum. Gigi raised her and Boone to become serial killers, and they got the idea to use the Red Devil costume when they saw the original Red Devil mascot. So, they murdered the original mascot and stole his costume. She was with Boone when he poured hydrochloric acid in Melanie's tanning spray.

Done with your shit

Hester at the asylum.

She stabs herself in the eye with a shoe and has Libby framed for it. She also manages to frame Sadie for killing Tiffany, as she left the restaurant she was with Libby at for no apparent reason, though a flashback reveals that Sadie had to take a dump because Hester had slipped laxatives into her cocktail. Chanel is also framed, and the three are sent to a mental institution.

Dean Munsch approaches Hester and notifies her that she knows Hester is the killer. Cathy says she remembers the baby girl's faces very clearly, and she could imagine almost perfectly what she would look like all grown up. Cathy says she is going to call the police, but Hester says that she will tell the police that Cathy killed her ex-husband. They decide to call it even and they part ways.

Scream Again[]

Hester only appeared in the beginning of the episode in footage from a VHS tape Denise Hemphill used as evidence to testify for the release of the Chanels. In the video, Denise is shown interviewing Hester in a locked room. Hester admits that she orchestrated the entire Red Devil conspiracy, but tells Denise that she can't convict her, because it's double jeopardy, and you can't be tried for the same crime twice. Denise argues with her that she hasn't even been tried before, since the Chanels were tried the first time. Hester still insists that it's double jeopardy, because someone was still convicted. After Denise demands that it's single jeopardy, Hester begins to lash out and starts beating the door down to get out. She ends up getting arrested for the Red Devil murders at Wallace University, while the Chanels are released and all charges against them are dropped.

Warts and All[]

Hestermax

Hester in her cell.

This episode marks Hester's first appearance in the present time and shows her being locked up in maximum security. Denise Hemphill suggests to Cathy that Hester might know more about the intentions of the Green Meanie killer, hence she was a serial killer herself. Cathy, Denise, Chanel and Chanel #3 then go to visit Hester in prison. Her cell is covered with various pieces of artwork, and after #3 compliments the drawings, Hester states that they are all from memory, as she does not have a view of the outside world. When Chanel is about to ask if she knows anything about the recent killings at the C.U.R.E Institute, Hester already knows what they came for. She tells them that she knows who the killer is and that they have a connection to the Halloween Massacre that happened thirty years ago. Hester insists that she will tell them everything she knows if she can transfer to the C.U.R.E hospital, have a room with a view, and receive high-end beauty products which haven't been produced in the last ten years.

Handidates[]

Dean Munsch and The Chanels visit Hester due to the sudden death of Tyler and the disappearance of Randal. Hester tells them that she will not give them anything until she get's moved to the hospital to a room with a view. As a response, Munsch offers her the movie "A Room with a View". Hester, annoyed, tells the group to not toy with her for the body count was about to go through the roof. Unfortunately for Hester, Munsch denies her access to the hospital and leaves due to Chanel receiving a text from Chad saying he knew who the killer was.

Later, Denise Hemphill and Zayday bring Hester to the basement of the C.U.R.E Institute Hospital where they put her in a jail suit and question her. Denise demands to know who the killer is before another victim falls dead. Hester laughs evilly and tells them that it's too late.

Halloween Blues[]

After Chad Radwell was killed, Cathy Munsch and Denise Hemphill try to come up with a way to find out the killer's identity, so they ask Hester, who suggests throwing a Halloween party inside the hospital, as they suspect the killer to be a member of the hospital staff. She then requests to attend the party, which Cathy and Denise deny; however, after Denise is attacked by the Green Meanie, she ultimately lets Hester go to the party, but she is not allowed to leave the hospital and has to wear an ankle bracelet that tracks her whereabouts. Moreover, she's supposed to dress up as Jason Voorhees, but she ends up copying Chanel #5's idea and goes as Ivanka Trump, Donald Trump's daughter. Shortly after she is released, she tries to attack Chanel Oberlin while disguised, and Chanel ends up suspecting #5 to be the one who tried to kill her and conclusively be the Green Meanie. Later that night, Hester actually attends the party, still disguised as Ivanka Trump. She doesn't do anything until a certain point after the party when #5 is carrying around stuff. #5 suspects it to be Chanel, who wants to take revenge on her. Hester pulls out a knife and slowly moves closer to #5, but lets it down when she sees her ally, the Green Meanie, who shoves a machete into her back. Hester leaves after that.

Chanel Pour Homme-Icide[]

After the events of the previous episode, Hester begins roaming freely around the hospital. She rests on a hospital bed, covered in blankets, moaning and whispering creepy things. This draws Chanel's attention, and when she comes into the room, Hester says the voices in her head are telling her to kill Chanel. Suddenly, she jumps up from the blankets, revealing herself and scaring Chanel. Hester then confesses that she misses being a Chanel and proposes that she rejoin the group, to which Chanel accepts and allows Hester to reclaim her old title of Chanel #6.

Chanel then brings Hester home to the girls' apartment and explains to the others that Hester can help them catch the Green Meanie and avoid being killed. They decide which of the newest Chanels to use as Green Meanie bait, and although Hester suggests Tristan, they end up settling on Chanel #8.

The next night, the Chanels decide to hold a sleepover at the hospital to celebrate the addition of the newest Chanels. They are shown giving each other makeovers, having pillow fights, and dancing the night away. They set up a Green Meanie trap in the morgue for Chanel #8, but after Tristan intervenes, he ends up getting killed, and Hester smiles menacingly at the sight of his body.

In the morning, Cathy scolds Chanel, #3, and #5 for having a sleepover at the hospital to lure in the Green Meanie. She also expresses her fury that Hester has gone missing, suspecting that the Chanels had something to do with it. Cathy even threatens the girls, stating that she will report them as accessories to murder if she finds out that they're harboring Hester as a fugitive.

Blood Drive[]

Hester is first seen looming over Chanel with a butcher knife in the middle of the night. Chanel wakes up and starts screaming, immediately asking why Hester is standing over her bed with a knife while watching her sleep. Hester admits that she's bored just sitting around the apartment all day, and when she gets bored, she daydreams about ways to murder people. She explains that if she isn't given something useful to do, at least one person in the apartment will end up dying.

The following day, Chanel confronts Cathy, confessing that she was the one who allowed Hester to move into the apartment to help them figure out who the killer is. She suggests that they give Hester a job at the hospital to keep her occupied and prevent her from murdering anyone important, to which Cathy obliges.

Cathy is then shown walking with Hester in the hallway, explaining that she is only allowed out of her cage for as long as she remains useful. Cathy adds that at the rate Hester is revealing information about the killer, the entire staff will be dead before they are caught, to which Hester responds that if she is given something cool to do, she might spill who it is by Thanksgiving. Cathy then tells Hester that she has too many patients and not enough people to figure out what's wrong with them, so she assigns Hester with a patient of her own, Brandon Szathmary. Before leading her into his room, Cathy explains that if Hester can prove herself to be able to diagnose and cure obscure diseases, Cathy will allow her to roam free another week.

Cathy then escorts Hester into Brandon's room and introduces Hester as one of her medical students under the alias of "Donna Summer." While Hester assumes he's just a douche in a vampire costume, Brandon confesses that he actually is a vampire. He then asks Cathy if she is anemic, as she seems to be looking pale, and Hester agrees. She suggests running some tests on Cathy to see what's wrong, but Cathy nervously dismisses their concerns, claiming she didn't get much sleep last night. She then exits the room, leaving Hester alone with Brandon, but not before quietly reminding Hester not to murder anyone.

Hester is then seen doing some reading, when Brandon decides to sneak up on her, causing her to punch him in the gut and knock him to the ground. She then helps him up and exclaims that she has great news regarding his medical condition. She diagnoses him with Cutaneous Porphyria, an incurable disease which causes extreme photo-sensitivity and receding gums, explaining why Brandon has fangs and develops blisters in sunlight. However, she reveals that Brandon's blood drinking obsession is all in his head, and is not a direct symptom of his disease. She proposes that the best way to cure his thirst for blood is to use aversion therapy techniques, making him drink an extreme amount of blood until he is disgusted by even the thought of it. Hester then cracks open a case of blood and pours a bag into a mug for Brandon to drink. After looking at the contents of the case, Brandon clarifies that they will definitely be needing more blood if Hester wants any hope of curing him.

Later on, Chanel discovers that all of her blood bags have been stolen, and after following a trail of blood droplets, she is lead to Brandon's room, where Hester is forcefully feeding him blood-filled foods. Chanel screams at Hester for being a blood thief, causing Cathy to hear the scream and come running into the room. Chanel explains to Cathy that Hester is manipulating the outcome of the blood drive, to which Hester explains that she is merely trying to treat Brandon of his blood addiction by feeding him so much of it that it makes him sick. Cathy tells Chanel that what's done is done, and she'll just have to collect even more blood, so she storms out of the room, warning Hester that payback is coming. Cathy then tells Hester that she has to find another way to cure Brandon within 24 hours, or else she gets put back into her cage in the basement.

That night, we see Hester coming down the hallway, frantically trying to figure out ways to get Brandon more blood. She stumbles upon the blood storage room, where she runs into Chamberlain, about to dispose of Chanel's STD-filled blood samples in the swamp. However, Hester has other plans, and she snatches up the blood from Chamberlain before he can throw it out.

Meanwhile, Chanel, Cathy, and Brock discover the dead body of Chanel #9. Cathy immediately insists that it was Hester, as she is a serial killer and desperately needed blood for Brandon, so the three of them go to confront her. They find her in Brandon's room, where she is still force-feeding him blood, even though he insists that he is cured. Cathy questions where she obtained the blood from, and Hester insists that she didn't kill anyone, confessing that she's actually using Chanel's blood. She explains that the blood is completely STD free, as she made sure to screen it before giving it to Brandon, exposing that Cathy had forged Chanel's test results. In the end, Brandon ends up being successfully cured, allowing Hester to roam free another week.

The Hand[]

Chanel tells her minions, Chanel #3, Chanel #5, and Hester, all about her troubles with her boyfriend Dr. Brock Holt. She expresses her concern for her safety, and complains that all Brock wants to do is try to kill her with his evil, serial-killing hand. However, Hester assures her that she has nothing to be worried about, as she knows who the killer is, and Dr. Brock is "not the Green Meanie type." This relaxes Chanel and she thanks Hester, but before they can all leave, Hester makes sure to question #3 about her love life, clearly referencing Dr. Cassidy Cascade and his killer identity. Chanel #3 storms out of the room after refusing to answer. It is then revealed that Ingrid was listening to the entire conversation just outside.

Profile[]

Hester is crazy, two-faced and obsessed with death. She is incredibly different from the other girls in Kappa Kappa Tau. She has a serious obsession with death, dead bodies and strangely, gets sexually attracted to them. She always has the idea of death flowing into her mind. She is a massive Chanel wannabe, and will do anything to please and protect Chanel, and is loyal towards her. At the same time, she wants to take everything from Chanel, and become the true leader of Kappa house. She wants to actually become Chanel #1 and will do anything to steal Chanel's boyfriend, Chad, and will even lie about being pregnant. Hester likes to take her life to the extreme and experiment, but deep down she is actually pretty afraid and human, like when her and Chad found Ms. Bean's body in the Haunted House thinking it was a wax figurine. Hester was acting seductive, but when she found out Ms. Bean's body was real, Hester screamed and freaked out. Unlike her twin brother, Hester is very open about her psychotic death obsessed personality, and is calm and comfortable when someone points it out. This allows Hester to slip past and fool everyone into thinking she is not the Red Devil.

Relationships[]

Main article: The Chanels
Main article: Chanel-Hester Relationship

The Chanels are Chanel's sidekicks, and consider her their best friend. They always do what Chanel wants and says, because she gives them popularity and an on-top position at school. The truth is that Chanel does not care about them, she just considers them as her helpers. This is shown when Chanel #2 is killed by the Red Devil and she thinks her death is an opportunity to get out of her problems. Chanel calls them Chanel #2, #3, and #5 because she does not know and care about their names.

Chanel at first disliked Hester because she was unpopular and creeped her out. However after Chanel #2 was murdered by the Red Devil, Chanel gave Hester a makeover and nicknamed her Chanel #6. Hester has an obsession with Chanel and wants everything she has. Including Chad, Chanel's boyfriend. Hester slept with Chad and faked being pregnant so he would marry her. Chanel enraged attempted to kill Hester by pushing her down stairs. Hester, however, survived the attack, thanks to her neckbrace and said that the fall might have actually cured her scoliosis. She joins Chanel for thanksgiving dinner with the Radwells in an attempt to be accepted by them but ultimately the Radwells are so horrible to them both that Chanel apologizes for her attempt to kill her and the two rekindle. Finally choosing their sistership over Chad.

Main article: Hester-Boone Relationship
Boone is Hester's twin brother and ally, and both were raised together in an asylum by Gigi Caldwell. The two were heavily taught about murder and revenge concepts by Gigi, and eventually grew up to carry out their murder plan against Kappa Kappa Tau. Hester was the brains of the operation, while Boone was the one who executed the killings. Despite constant pressure from Gigi to murder Boone, Hester never carried out Gigi's wishes, presumably because she did not want to kill her own brother. Their sibling bond was put to an end, however, after Boone was stabbed by Pete Martinez.

Main article: Gigi-Hester Relationship
Gigi took care of Hester and her twin brother, Boone while growing up and taught the pair everything they needed to know about murder and revenge. Gigi always saw Hester as the more intelligent and dedicated of the twins, even at a very young age. It was Hester's idea to use the Red Devil suit for their murder plan, while Gigi was the one who carried out the killing of the gentleman who wore the mascot outfit. The two seemed to have a strong bond, up until Gigi felt that Boone was screwing up their plan and started to pressure Hester to get rid of him.

Main article: Chad-Hester Relationship
Because Hester wants everything that Chanel has, she attempts to start a relationship with Chad, Chanel's boyfriend. They both share a creepy obsession with corpses, and Hester uses that to lure Chad to the House on Shady Lane so they could hook-up. Hester ended up sleeping with Chad and later faked being pregnant so that he would marry her. After she survived Chanel's attempt on her life, she attends Thanksgiving dinner with the Radwells in an attempt to be accepted by them. However, the Radwells turn out to be so horrible to Hester that she decides to break all ties with Chad.

In Warts and All, it's revealed that despite being locked up in prison, Hester seems to know the new serial killer very well (i.e. their killing activities during the graveyard shifts) and even knows his or her identity. It's currently unknown if she's been visited by the killer while in prison, or if she has met the killer in some other way. She also used the killer's identity as leverage to get what she wants from Cathy. Denise, Chanel and Chanel #3, however, they declined because her demands involved her being released from prison. She also seems to be very close to the killer, presumably since she was one herself. It is also unknown the extent of their "relationship", however she seems to be the only person to know the identity of the Green Meanie.

In Halloween Blues, the Green Meanie and Hester (disguised as Ivanka Trump) teamed up for the very first time onscreen as Hester distracts Chanel #5 while the Green Meanie sneaks up behind her and stabs her in the back.

In Chanel Pour Homme-Icide, she smiles as they find the body of Tristan St. Pierre.

In Lovin the D, the three Green Meanies reveal themselves as Dr. Cassidy Cascade, Nurse Hoffel, and Grace's father Wes. She calls a summit between the trio of killers and oversees it. It is revealed at the summit that the Green Meanie she was an ally to was her father and she helps the three killers decide who can kill who.

Quotes[]

When I was six years old, my father died and my mother made me kiss the body at his funeral. Ever since then, I've been obsessed with death. (Hell Week)

[about Chanel #2's body] Here's what you should do: Pulverize her teeth, burn off her fingerprints and disfigure her face. Once her body is unrecognizable we can create an incision on her inner thigh and drain out all of her bodily fluids. That'll give us more time to deconstruct the body. Because truly grinding down a body takes a lot of work. You need a really good food processor and you run the risk of fouling the plumbing, which is why you should only do it if you know how to clear out meat and bones from a drainpipe. Each of these plans has its drawbacks, but don't worry, I'm willing to help in any way possible. (Hell Week)

[To Chanel] Can I call you mom? (Hell Week)

[To Chanel] Chanel says I can hold her hair back now on purge nights. (Chainsaw)

[To Chad Radwell] I also find the thought of dead bodies extremely arousing! (Haunted House)

[To Chad Radwell] I want everything Chanel has... and that includes you. (Haunted House)

[To Chad Radwell] Do you think you're man enough to take me inside that house and attack my crack? (Haunted House)

[To Chanel #5] I'm gonna let you in on a little secret. I'm what you call a switch-hitter. (Pumpkin Patch)

Hester: Did you kill him? Because if you did, you need to tell us all of the details, including what his eyes looked like when he took his last breath. They say in that moment, the soul tells all of its secrets.
Chanel: No, THEY don't. No one says that!
Hester: Yeah they do. (Pumpkin Patch)

Jennifer: I am not an idiot or a moron, I am simply a victim of my times.
Hester: Are you aware your pants are on backwards? (Seven Minutes in Hell)

I came to see if Sam needed anything but she doesn't because she's dead! (Seven Minutes in Hell)

I was rooting through Zayday's drawers and look what I found. Zayday is on the pill. But guess who else is on the pill? Grace. And if you look closely here, you can see that their cycles are synced. And you know what else is synced? Their thirst for murder! I mean, you know what they say: Those who pill together kill together! (Mommie Dearest)

Hester: Well, I guess we'll just have to see how it goes bringing Chanel home for Thanksgiving.
Chad: Yeah, I guess we will see, as that's what's going to happen.
Hester: I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
Chad: Yeah, we will wait and see, as Thanksgiving is an event that takes place in the future, and therefore it hasn't happened yet.
Hester: We'll see. (Ghost Stories)

[To Chanel] Good thing I was wearing this neck brace when you pushed me down the stairs because it saved my life! And laying me on the ground in the meat locker was the perfect thing to do. The hard slab of the cold steel curbed the swelling in my spinal column. When I woke up and regained consciousness, I felt better than ever! Really, I should be thanking you right now. That fall? It might have cured me of my severe scoliosis! (Thanksgiving)

Maybe she has some magical powers that make her unable to die like some horror movie villain. Like Michael Meyers or Jason or Dr. Giggles. (Black Friday)

You may have noticed my eyepatch. It's temporary. The advantage of stabbing yourself in the eye with a stiletto heel is that you know just where to jab it in order to miss the important organs, like your optic nerve or your brain. You might have noticed that I'm the only Chanel left. That's because I got away with it. It was a plan twenty years in the making and it worked.(The Final Girl(s))

You're probably thinking, what kind of a person could drive a six inch stiletto into her own eye socket? A person who did her homework, that's who! First, I had to get an x-ray of my own skull, then I had to calculate the proper length of the heel, the angle of the insertion, with just the right amount of force to slip behind the eyeball without damaging the eye socket. Also it helps to be totally frickin' insane. (The Final Girl(s))

What I've noticed is that the more weird and gross you are, the less people wanna know about you. No one asks the kid with terrible acne what their favorite movie is or where they were born. (The Final Girl(s))

Even though I only ate asylum food and never really exercised, I was blessed with a super-tight bod. My butt could launch a thousand ships and my boobs were remarkably perky and even. Couple that with my BJ lips and I was gonna need something pretty spectacular to keep everyone from wanting to get all up in this. (The Final Girl(s))

Obvi, I was the brains of the operation, Boone was the muscle, and Gigi was the weird and psycho beating black heart. (The Final Girl(s))

[To Grace and Zayday] You guys seem really nice. I've always said that being nice is a really good quality. It could save your life someday. (The Final Girl(s))

Some people don't deserve to just get murdered, they need to be truly punished. (The Final Girl(s))

Everyone got what they wanted. And even though the Chanels didn't actually kill anyone, they perpetuated the system that created me, my brother, Pete, and Gigi. So if anyone should pay for this, it should be them. (The Final Girl(s))

From what I hear this Green Meanie will make the Red Devil look like a Girl Scout. (Handidates)
