Here are the true stories behind the movie Orphan — as well as those seemingly inspired by its plot. Indiana couple Kristine and Michael Barnett were well-versed in raising children with special needs. In , they adopted six-year-old Natalia Grace from the Ukraine; she had a form of dwarfism that made it difficult for her to walk. Natalia had been in the US for about two years when she came to live with the Barnetts, coming to live with them after her last adopted family had given her up for undisclosed reasons.
After a while, Natalia started acting strangely. Due to a hormone disorder that stunts her growth, Esther is cleverly able to hide her true age with makeup and clothing. In an even more bizarre turn, Esther attempts to seduce John, fails, and then kills him. She has hypopituitarism, a disorder that stunted her physical growth and caused dwarfism and as a result, she spent most of her life posing as a little girl.
It is bordered on the south by Latvia, on the east by Russia, and on the west by the Baltic Sea. Although Estonia is now an independent country, it was controlled by the Soviet Union until Aryana Engineer is hearing impaired but can speak, read lips, and hear with hearing aids.
I never held you, but I feel you. You never spoke, but I hear you. I never knew you, but I love you. Sister Abigail thinks it's because Esther thinks of herself as a princess, but it eventually comes out that she's hiding scars from previous attempts to get out of a straitjacket.
After falling from the treehouse, Daniel is rushed to the hospital with abdominal bleeding. Ultimately, he survives, evidenced when one of the doctors says that they have a pulse and John later tells Max that Daniel is going to be okay. There is also a scene in which John tells Kate that he's taking the children home and that Daniel will be home in a few days. In an early draft of the script, however, he did not survive. They were the roses from Baby Jessica's dedication garden.
Esther knew about the roses because Kate had shown them to her several days ago and told her, "As long as these roses grow, she will too. Apparently, Kate had a drinking problem and passed out, leaving Max in the car, and it somehow slipped into the pond.
If John hadn't saved Max, she would have drowned. Although Max survived, she did end up with a permanent hearing defect, which is a continuous source of guilty feelings for Kate. He recognized Esther from the photo Kate sent. Turns out that Esther is really Leena Klammer, a year-old woman with a pituitary disorder that makes her look smaller and younger than her actual age. Leena was one of their most violent patients and escaped from the Institute a year ago.
When Varava learns that Esther is home with Kate's husband, he advises her to call the police and to get her family out of the house. Knowing that John won't believe her, Kate races home through a snowstorm to warn him. Meanwhile, having been rebuffed by John, Esther trashes her room. When John hears the noise, he looks in her room, but Esther is not there. However, in the dim light of the fish tank, he notices Esther's paintings for what they really are—images of violence visible only under black light.
Varava told Kate to call John immediately and tell him to get the rest of the family out of the house and call the police. Confused, Kate asked Dr. Varava why she should do this. Varava explained that Esther was actually an adult woman. He revealed that her real name was Leena Klammer and she was extremely dangerous. He further explained that Leena was actually 33 years old and she had a rare hormonal disorder that stunted her physical growth by causing her to look like a child.
He told Kate that she was the most violent patient who was at the Institute and she constantly fought to get out of the straitjacket in which she was confined which resulted in the jacket cutting into her skin and leaving scars around her wrists and neck explaining why she wore ribbons. To their knowledge, Leena already killed seven people before being admitted to the Saarne Institute. Leena passed herself off as a little girl for most of her life and she tricked the last family that she lived with in Estonia into adopting her, but when she was unable to seduce the father, she killed him and his whole family.
To Kate's horror, she remembered what Sister Abigail told her about Esther's last adoptive family, the Sullivans: they were killed in a house fire. Kate rushed home, hoping that she was not too late. Eventually, Leena and Kate are engaged in a vicious fight on a frozen lake.
They fell into the water, but they managed to get up. This broke Leena's neck, killing her instantly and sending her to a watery grave at the bottom of the lake.
Esther had two previous schools. Before St. Mariana's, Esther was enrolled in a previous school of which little was known. All of that was known are the two incidents.
The first was that while she was there, a boy fell with the scissors that are in his hand and he stabbed himself though the jaw. The second was that the two girls got into a fight and one of them was caught stealing. These incidents occurred when Esther was around.
In her school that was with the Colemans, Esther's first day got off to a poor start as a girl named Brenda teased her about her clothing. Later, Brenda teased Esther about having a Bible and she tried to take her ribbons off by causing Esther to scream and she went into a fit of rage.
Later, Esther injured Brenda by pushing her off a slide. Before Leena Klammer Esther Coleman's real name became a serial killer by stalking the adoptive families, she had an atrocious childhood. It was one where her father sexually abused her to the point where she thought that he was showing her love. This left her with permanent reproductive sterility.
