Elle Holloway is an important character in Silent Hill: Homecoming. She is an old school friend of Alex Shepherd and the daughter of Margaret Holloway. She survives the initial attacks on their hometown of Shepherd's Glen, and on occasion succeeds in meeting up with Alex on his journey, becoming similar in her overall role as Maria's was to James Sunderland (though Elle is real whereas Maria was a manifestation).

Silent Hill: Homecoming 
Edit
Added by Psycho claudiaAlex meets Elle outside the Shepherd's Glen Police Station, stapling fliers to the missing persons board. While evidently pleased to see Alex, she expresses some negativity with him having left so suddenly, and being equally surprised to see him return. Elle gives Alex the radio before he heads off.
The second time Elle is seen in the game is just outside of the Police Station after Alex is taken into custody by Wheeler. When Alex saves her by fighting off a Siam, Elle suggests they might be safer underground as they are surrounded by monsters in the parking lot. Once inside the sewers Alex discovers Elle's little sister Nora has gone missing along with the other children. Alex assures Elle they will find Nora and Josh before they head off in search of a way out of the sewers. Elle goes missing before they can find a way out of the sewers leaving behind her radio.
Added by ButterscotchboyElle isn't seen again until after Alex escapes his home. She is on the boat when Alex and Wheeler head to Silent Hill. She gives Alex her locket which she states "I took it from my mother the morning Nora disappeared. I haven't taken it off since." Before they can dock the boat, the Order Soldiers capture Elle and Wheeler while Alex is knocked off the boat.
Elle is finally seen being terrorized by Curtis Ackers in the underground part of the Church. Alex saves her and she assists him as far as finding Wheeler in the underground.
Should the player receive the "Good Ending" Alex is seen coming out of the sewers at the same time Elle makes her way onto the road. After several hugs and a brief conversation Elle assists Alex out of Silent Hill.
Should the player receive the "UFO Ending" Alex and Elle become beamed up by the alien spaceship while Wheeler witnesses the whole scene.
Possible romance with AlexEdit
Throughout the game Alex and Elle give hints to possible hidden feelings aside from just high school friendship. Here are some examples:
- When Alex first meets Elle as she's stapling up fliers, they launch themselves into a very heart warming hug that suggest more than old friendship. It seems at any given chance they touch each other affectionately, Example: Meeting, Sewers, Outside the Shepherd Residence, The Boat Scene, The "Good Ending."
- When Alex states he is leaving after finding Josh, Elle appears hurt. She also appears hurt that he is more interested in finding his brother than talking to her.
- On the boat to Silent Hill, Alex says to her "I'm glad some things have gotten better since I left," in which Elle looks at him in a way that suggests more than friendship.
- Alex seems to become violent when Elle is in danger; for example, when they are in the lair beneath the Church, he kills Curtis to prevent him from hurting her.
- At the end of the game in the "Good Ending," Alex and Elle embrace very romantically.
- There are several romantic implications in Elle Theme, such as the line, "It feels good, just holding you."
TriviaEdit
- Elle's design was recycled from the original Heather Mason model. The game producers wanted Heather to be more feminine, whereas Homecoming's developers wanted Elle to be more independent, which is ironic because Alex is always having to save her.
- Elle is the only living member of the Holloway family, much as Alex is the last living member of the Shepherd family.
- In the Lair, the player can backtrack to Margaret's corpse after rescuing Elle. Interestingly, Elle shows no reaction to her mother's corpse, even with the drill still embedded in her head. This was likely overlooked by the game developers, as in a real life situation, Elle would have likely had a strong emotional reaction.
- She bears a resemblance to Elena Fisher from the Uncharted Series.
