Scarlet Fitch is a character and a terrifying monster in Silent Hill: Homecoming. She is the daughter of Dr. Martin Fitch of Shepherd's Glen, and a descendant of one of the town's four founding families, the Fitch family. To uphold a pact with the Order and protect Shepherd's Glen from the curse of Silent Hill, Scarlet was brutally dismembered and sacrificed by her father. This act deeply scarred Martin Fitch's psyche, leading him to depression and self-mutilation. In the game, when the protagonist Alex Shepherd encounters Martin Fitch, Scarlet's doll transforms into a tall, doll-like monster, the Scarlet boss fight. The Scarlet boss is believed to be a manifestation of Martin Fitch's guilt over murdering his daughter or even Scarlet herself somehow resurrected. Her appearance is a giant porcelain doll with sharp teeth and claws, and is highly aggressive. During the fight, her porcelain shell can be broken to expose her flesh, and she will attack by crawling rapidly. Scarlet as a character represents both an innocent sacrifice and the distortion of paternal love and guilt.
