Biography (exclusive to the original cut)
Early Life
At some point, she met Wayne Bailey, a police detective and the two married. They went on to parent three children: Richie Kirsch, Quinn Bailey, and Ethan Landry, although their true last name is unknown due to multiple personas taken on by the family.
Their eldest son, Richie, developed an obsession with the Stab film franchise and both parents overindulged his addiction to the films, with Wayne even helping Richie build a shrine in an old New York City theatre that they had purchased.
Richie's addiction eventually caused him to snap and after the eighth Stab film was released and met negatively by fans, Richie, along with Woodsboro teenager Amber Freeman, orchestrated a third killing spree in Woodsboro, targeting former resident, Samantha Carpenter who was the daughter of original killer, Billy Loomis.
As a result, Richie was stabbed to death by Samantha, causing strain between Wayne and Mrs. Bailey.
Death
Eventually, the loss of their son became too much to handle and Wayne and Mrs. Bailey divorced. Wayne then decided he wanted to get revenge against Samantha and Tara Carpenter and planned a new killing spree with his youngest children, Quinn and Ethan. Upon proposing the plan to his ex-wife, she disagreed and as a result, Wayne killed her, forcing Ethan to help him slay his own mother.
The New York City Murders (2023)

Following her death, the family relocated from their home to New York City where Wayne took a transfer as an NYPD Detective and Quinn and Ethan took on alternate personas and enrolled at Blackmore University to get close to remaining Woodsboro survivors Sam, Tara, Chad and Mindy. The new spree resulted in the deaths of Wayne, Quinn and Ethan, putting an end to the Kirsch/Bailey family line.
