The Bride in Black (real name: Parker Crane), also called Marilyn Crane, The Dark Bride and The Old Woman, is an undead serial killer who appears as an old woman dressed in a black bridal gown, and one of the villains of the 2011 supernatural horror film Insidious and later the secondary main antagonist in the sequel Insidious: Chapter 2 and "Insidious: Chapter 3".
This parasitic ghost among the tortured spirits of the dead within the shadowy astral realm known as "The Further", who yearns for life as well as yearns to cause pain upon others, is a young man who was abused by his mother by forcing him to dress as a girl under the name "Marilyn". This abuse led to his descent into madness and later he became a mass murderer under the alias "The Bride in Black", and later after his death, formed a connection with Josh Lambert who knows him only as a frightening figure of an old lady since his childhood.
Parker wears a seemingly bridal, black Victorian dress, laced with black finery, and holds a small red candle in his hand. His appearance is ghastly, as he sports long, unkempt hair, dark eyes and a face laden with wrinkles and pockmarks. This is later shown to be a disguise.
Before the death
Parker was born to a mother and an unnamed father. However, at some point in their marriage trespasses, as demonstrated by the fact that his mother hates even the mere mention of the name "Parker" due to the fact that her ex-husband, the father of Parker, gave him that name at birth. The fate of Parker's father is unknown. Perhaps he committed suicide or he was killed by his wife, for now it is only known that he leaves his wife at one point Parker's childhood. For unexplained reasons Parker earned the hatred of his mother, who prefers the name "Marilyn". His mother raised him as a little girl causing him to develop a personality complex disorder. This led him to don the clothing and appearance on an old woman in adulthood, being dressed in a black wedding dress. This disguise masked his true identity and while wearing this disguise, he killed 15 women. At some point in his old age Parker was hospitalized after attempting to castrate himself. After a meeting with a young Josh he committed suicide by jumping from the roof of the hospital . However, shortly after his death he was seen by Lorraine as a ghost.
Insidious
During the opening scene, the Old Woman is seen outside the window holding a candle. Later Lorraine visits Josh, Renai and Elise and tells Josh about the Old Woman. She recounts that Josh used to suffer night terrors as a child due to an 'old woman' visiting him at night. Dismissing his fears as superstition, as well as telling Josh to grow up and shrug away the bizarre dreams, Lorraine became aware of the malevolent being's existence when she witnessed her presence in photos with Josh in them. Disturbingly, in a chronological span, the Old Woman seemingly moves in closer to Josh as he ages, nearly touching him in one photo. Elise explains that the Old Woman is a 'parasite' who befriended Josh's astral form in an attempt to possess his physical body. The only way to stop her from doing so was to repress Josh's memory of her and cease taking photos of him. However, Josh developed a subconscious fear of having his photo taken. Towards the end of the film, the Old Woman reappears to Josh by standing outside a window. Josh, filled with anger and fear, lashes out at her, shouting "LEAVE ME ALONE!!". She seemingly retreats back into the darkness while it appears that both Josh and Dalton escape the Further together. The Lambert family celebrates that the nightmare is over, but Elise feels something wrong. Taking a quick picture of Josh, Elise sees, much to her horror, that his image is replaced by the Old Woman. In retaliation, the Old Woman strangles Elise with Josh's body and the movie ends with seemingly leaving the fate of Josh ambiguous. The films ends with the Old Woman blowing out the candle into complete darkness.
