Character Profile - Dr Walker


  • Name: Alan Walker
  • Gender: Male
  • Age: 38
  • Occupation: Doctor
  • Character Traits: Hard-working, compassionate, stressed (due to work).




Dr Alan Walker is the doctor that treats Lily following her accident, and is the first person she sees after waking up. He also triggers Lily's first vision when he checks her temperature, where she sees him succumb to a heart attack in his office. Despite his overall lack of screen-time, he is presented as being compassionate and hard-working (thus inducing a stress-related heart attack). He is is not seen for the remainder of the film, though is mentioned in a local news broadcast on the radio reporting his death due to a heart attack. He plays a significant role in the story as his death triggers Lily's descent into hysteria and delusion, thus resulting in the events of the remainder of the film.
