Alessa Gillespie (Jodelle Ferland), although not present on screen most of the time, is the heart and soul of each Silent Hill video game and movie installment. Chosen to birth God, an evil demonic entity, Alessa’s soul splits during the ceremony into a “dark” and “light” Alessa. Dark Alessa creates the Silent Hill world, filling it with terrifying and brutal creatures born out of her pain and suffering during the ritual.

Debbie Thornberry
Deborah “Debbie” Thornberry is the older sister of Eliza Thornberry, and daughter to Nigel and Marianne. Unlike her family, she has little excitement for the natural and wild world. Instead, Debbie wishes to live a normal suburban life, but is forced to travel the wilderness with her parents as they film nature documentaries.
Deanna Troi
Half Betazoid and half human, counselor Deanna Troi (Marina Sirtis) of Star Trek: The Next Generation uses her Betazoid empathetic abilities to serve both ship and crew of the USS Enterprise. A beautiful, kind, gentle woman with a serious sweet tooth for chocolate, she often finds herself playing peacemaker. Throughout the series she also enjoys a number of romantic interests, especially with on-again-off-again lover Commander Riker. This guide is for her earlier outfit as counselor, before she begins to wear the Starfleet uniform.
The Feelers
On The Strain, ancient race of vampires, strigoi, have taken over New York City. During the city’s evacuation, the strigoi kidnap blind children on their way out of the city and turn them into “Feelers.” The Feelers are blind and animalistic, enhanced with extra-sensory perception and are used to track Dr. Goodweather and the team. They still wear their school uniforms, though most of their clothing has become dirty and tattered. Most of the children are female, but swapping the skirt, stockings, and shoes can be easily swapped for pants and men’s dress shoes. Otherwise, their look is virtually identical.
Though this makeup looks complicated, it can be easily achieved with a bald cap, a professional color wheel, hair pieces, scarring fluid, pale blue or white contact lenses, and a little experimentation.
