Hayley Dreamsmasher Fischer (née Smith) is a character from the animated television series American Dad!. She is voiced by Rachael MacFarlane, the younger sister of one of the series co-creators, Seth MacFarlane.
Hayley, along with her father Stan, was one of the first two characters that were conceived and created for the series. Across the series, Hayley's storylines typically involve her liberal opinions clashing with her father's staunch conservative beliefs, and her on-again-off-again relationship with boyfriend Jeff Fischer, whom she later marries in the show's sixth season.
Hayley Smith is the daughter of Stan Smith, a CIA agent, and Francine Smith, a housewife (although, it is later revealed that Stan may not be her biological father but this is one of the three episodes that contradict several others). It is revealed in a brief flashback that she had a twin brother named Bailey who, it is suggested, is no longer alive. Unlike her father, her mother and her brother, Steve Smith, Hayley is ultra-liberal. She is "addicted" to marijuana and in "Jones for a Smith," Hayley actually worried that her marijuana smoking is getting out of hand and begs Francine to let her go to rehab, with Francine callously telling her daughter to stop being such a melodramatic attention-seeker. Hayley once helped the homeless, and is in favor of gun control. This causes a great amount of distrust and hatred for her on Stan's part, as he consistently has views that are polar opposite to hers. In the third season episode "Stanny Slickers II: The Legend of Ollie's Gold", it is revealed that her middle name is Dreamsmasher, as given by Stan.
