Alice is a main character in the Friday the 13th series, created by Victor Miller. She first appears in Friday the 13th as a camp counselor, with a second appearance in the original film's sequel. Alice is portrayed by Adrienne King in both films. The character has a supporting role in the comic book series and a main role in the novels. The character went through different drafts during the early stages of the screenplay, eventually moving to a more sympathetic role for the 1979 film.
In the original Friday the 13th, Alice came from California and was an aspiring artist. She got a job as a camp counselor at Crystal Lake, New Jersey. She left California to give herself a fresh start after she ended an affair with an older married man. There she began a relationship with middle-aged camp owner Steve Christy that ended badly, and she instead became interested in fellow counselor Bill. One by one, the counselors are stalked and killed, and Alice and Bill become concerned when they can't find the other counselors. After realizing that they are the only two left, they leave the main cabin to investigate, only to discover a bloody axe in Brenda's bed, the phones disconnected, and the cars unusable. When the power goes out, Bill is killed when he goes to find the generator. Alice then heads outside and calls out for him and finds his dead body pinned to the back of the door. Frightened, she heads back to the main cabin to hide. She sees a vehicle pull up; thinking it's Steve, she rushes out but instead sees a middle-aged woman named Pamela Voorhees, who reveals herself to be the mother of the drowned boy Jason Voorhees, blaming his death on the counselors not watching her son. She also reveals herself as the killer when she violently rushes toward Alice with her knife. A chase ensues with Mrs. Voorhees attempting to kill Alice, but she escapes to the shore of the lake. During the final struggle, Alice decapitates her with a machete. Afterwards, a shaken Alice boards a canoe and falls asleep. Just as she sees police arriving, a decomposing body of a young boy drags her underwater. She then awakens in a hospital, screaming. A police officer tells her the aftermath. When she asks about Jason, the officer replies with no evidence of any boy; Alice says: "He's still there".
